Season 1 Finale (with Natasha): The Big Lessons, And What We Didn't Say

It's the last episode of Season 1: what have we learned from all our stories and experts? And what didn't we talk about that needs to be said? This week, Natasha takes the hot seat as she talks to Anna Levy about the themes, lessons and unspoken insights from all our career changers and experts this season.  Where do great career ideas come from? Why does career change feel so hard? Are there people out there for whom career change just isn't an option? And what do we need to be careful of when we listen to career change stories on a podcast like this one? Plus... Should we do another season of the podcast?

Daniel's Story (with Louisa Taylor): Imperfection, Uncertainty, and Challenging Convention

This week, meet Louisa Taylor: ICF-accredited career coach and community manager for us here at Careershifters.  We discussed Daniel's story from last week: including how high we should be aiming when it comes to looking for the dream job, strategies for finding out the facts about the finances of a career, and how to incorporate things that don’t feel relevant to work - like faith, friendship, and identity - into a career change process.  Plus...

Daniel's Story: "I kept thinking: I deserve a life that's better than this"

Not every career change starts with total misery. Sometimes things aren’t awful, but they’re certainly not great. And as time goes on, mediocrity can turn into resentment. In this episode, we hear from Daniel Ricken, who realised that ‘fine’ wasn’t good enough any more. He’s now found an unexpected way to get paid for something he’s always done for free – bringing people together around the things that matter to him most. We talked about finding the intersection between your personal and professional selves, finding ways to sidestep a crazy job market, and what he did when the political landscape crashed into his career change world.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
