When was the last time you asked yourself if your career is truly headed where you want to go? Do you feel like you’re just coasting along or following someone else’s script?
It’s tempting but playing it safe is no way to build a career that allows you to grow into your best self.
In today’s conversation, Grace helps you grab the wheel and chart a course aligned with your true aspirations.
We’ll explore how to move past the myth of “work-life balance” and integrate your personal and professional lives in an intentional way. Grace shares how to define your unique “cardinal direction,” take control of your career GPS, and build “professional equity” as you move ahead.
She also reveals how to course-correct when you veer off track so you can leave a legacy you’re proud of.
