I'm sure you've heard this countless times - "to be successful in anything requires you to have confidence in yourself". While dealing with limiting beliefs isn't anything new to any of us, there are some common patterns people face when making a career change.
The reality is, you will hit low points along the way and it's at those darkest moments that dealing with limiting beliefs can feel almost unbearable, pushing you to give up on trying to achieve career happiness.
In this HTYC episode, Scott Anthony Barlow sits down with his guest, Vicky Meng to talk about what it was like going through the 2 major low points she hit during her career change journey before landing her ideal role. We'll also explore the 3 things Vicky did to prepare herself for some of her weakest moments (including turning down a good opportunity to continue looking for an ideal opportunity).

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
