Gen Z and Millennial Career and Leadership Coach

Worried you’re stuck in your career? I’m all for change. Just take a look at the job titles above!

But early on, my career and job changes were driven by uncertainty and anxiety and a way to feel like I was in control of my career. In reality, I was relying on short-term fixes rather than long-term growth. I had no plan and no one to guide me. I knew I wasn’t living my purpose but I couldn’t quite work out what that was. Here’s the thing. Your job is not your career. Your job may come and go, but your career is your own journey. It deserves to be created by you, for you.

Short-term career tactics like impulsive job switches (hello, it’s me), memorizing negotiation scripts and interview answers, and making decisions without understanding why you’re doing any of it, tends to have short-term results. This even applies to promotions — yes, landing that first power-suit job can feel huge, but are your interpersonal skills and mindset in a place to turn that into a satisfying long term career — or will you become overwhelmed, question what it is all for, lose motivation and burn out?
