Hey 👋 , I’m Janine Esbrand, corporate lawyer turned career strategist and executive coach.For years, I had my eye on the corporate partner title. I kept my head down, worked the long hours, and chased the next big deal because that’s what success was supposed to look like.Then I became a mother. And I realised I didn’t want to build a life around my career, I wanted to build a career around my life. So, I stepped off the default corporate path and designed a portfolio career that allows me to work on my terms, create meaningful impact, and show up fully, both professionally and personally.Now, I help ambitious mid-career women do the same: gain clarity, challenge the default ladder, and design aligned, sustainable careers that reflect who they are now, not who they used to be.This podcast will give you the strategy, mindset and tools to make it happen.So grab your notebook, pour your hot drink of choice and lets design what’s next.Next Steps:🎙️ Explore for 1:1 Coaching: www.careerchangemakers.com/claritycall🌐 Visit the Website: www.careerchangemakers.com📩 Contact Us: hello@careerchangemakers.com
