Have you ever felt like you were just drifting in your career without any real sense of direction, purpose, or intention? Perhaps you’ve felt stuck working at a job you’re simply not happy doing. According to a recent study conducted by the University of Phoenix School of Business, 73% of professionals in their 30s are wanting to change their career paths. Our guest today, Alison Cardy, is the founder and CEO of Cardy Career Coaching and the author of Career Grease: How to Get Unstuck and Pivot Your Career.
Alison has worked with hundreds of individuals and professionals to find innovative and functional career solutions that help balance the “see-saw” scale of the workforce. Today, we’ll talk about some of the bad reasons people choose a career path and how to avoid them, the various levels of figuring out where you want your career to go, the steps to take to successfully change your career, and how Alison helps her clients through the “drifting phase” to find a career path that works for them.
