Career Change Maker | Career Clarity, Career Opportunities, Career Pivots, Burnout, Corporate Job, Income # 150 - The Identity Shifts That Must Happen If You Want To Make A Career Change
In this episode, I discuss the identify shifts that must happen if you want to make a career change.
It’s so important to separate two things – who you are and what you do.
These two things can start to blur into one along your journey. After all, when someone asks you about yourself, it’s likely you mention your job role.
When you are identifying yourself as that person and you’re really rooted in what you do, there’s a problem when you decide that you no longer want to do that, you go for a promotion (hello, imposter syndrome!) go on maternity leave, or take a career break.
In this situation, so many people find themselves asking ‘who will I be if I no longer do the thing I identify myself as?’
But who you are is who you are, regardless of what you do. They are two separate things.
In this episode, I discuss how knowing this will allow you to feel confident to open your options to doing something different.
What you will learn:
- How to separate who you are from what you do
- The importance of articulating the value you will bring to a role
- How to write a compelling CV/résumé
