Job Search, Promotion, and Career Clarity: The Mid-Career GPS Podcast 85: Getting Over Your FOSO (Fear Of Standing Out) with Judy Schoenberg from EvolveMe
Imagine hitting a milestone birthday and thinking you don’t want to be doing that work or in that organization for the rest of your career. It’s more common than you think.
As mid-career professionals, you don’t want to settle and worry about being happier with your job and career. You know there has to be more than just being on the hamster wheel every day.
My guest is Judy Schoenberg, the co-founder of EvolveMe and a former executive for the Girl Scouts of America.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
· How Judy was open to a new opportunity that changed her career trajectory
· What she learned about being a leader from the Girl Scouts of America
· Why we all need a mentor
· Why we all must address our FOSO – the Fear of Standing Out
