142. Stuck in Your Career? Try This 6-Minute Exercise

Have you ever noticed how easy it is to give advice about other people’s careers… and how much harder it can be to figure out your own?

Many mid-career professionals reach a point where their thinking becomes crowded with competing voices. Should I change direction? Aim for promotion? Start something new? Or simply stay where I am?

In this episode, I introduce a simple technique that can help cut through that noise: timed writing. By setting a timer and responding to a powerful prompt, you can bypass overthinking and allow deeper insights to surface.

You’ll also hear the story of Sarah, a project manager who had spent more than a decade in the same organisation. A six-minute writing exercise helped her uncover a direction she had quietly dismissed for years.

If you’re feeling stuck or uncertain about your next step, this episode offers a simple exercise you can try today to bring greater clarity to your career thinking.
