Welcome back, babes, to the podcast! Super excited about today's episode. In this honest and inspiring conversation, host Jillian Murphy sits down with Caitlin Magidson—a licensed mental health therapist and a career and leadership coach. Caitlin is a peer, a friend, a client, and a colleague who helps people love the life and career they live.
Jillian and Caitlin peel back the layers on career change, the power of self-reflection, and how to successfully navigate the job market without relying only on quick online applications. This is a must-listen for corporate professionals and entrepreneurs alike who are ready to make a conscious shift in their careers.
Topics Covered:
- The power of outward networking at real-life events, yoga, or hiking groups.
- Caitlin's journey from broadcast communications to career and leadership coaching.
- Coaching vs. Therapy: Coaching focuses on action and specific goals, not treating anxiety/depression.
- Symptoms of needing support: feeling stuck, fearful, or unable to retell your story.
- Don't rely on online job applications; you must network and do informational interviews.
- The first step is deep self-reflection to clarify values, money, and desired environment.
- Moving from motion (planning/thinking) to action (executing the strategy).
- The vulnerability of saying what you want out loud to own it.
“Motion is a lot of planning and thinking... but action is when you actually start to execute” – Caitlin

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
