Is it wise to pursue a new career in this challenging economy?

When is the appropriate time?

How can you stay true to your beliefs and values despite the presence of capitalism, colonialism, and patriarchy, which contradict them?

Damn. I know I got DEEP.

Today, I am joined by my client, Dr. Luna Clara Muñoz, a TEDx speaker and career coach for academic misfits.

We delve into the process of discovering a fulfilling career and how she had to unlearn many things from working in higher education, like trying to do the most.

What We Cover in This Episode:

  • Practical Steps for Career Transition
  • Honoring Values in a Capitalist Society
  • Overcoming the Struggle Mindset

If you would like to see how to work with me to create a more sustainable life where you can be more present with yourself and create your own checklist of success that’s not created by society and loved ones, then schedule a complimentary legacy business and career review at elainelou.com/call
