Are you thinking about making a career pivot—but unsure whether it is the right time, what comes next or how to explain the change?
In this episode of Loud & Lifted, Betsy Hamm talks with Trish Barber, author of Why Women Pivot, about the real emotional and practical work behind changing careers.
Career pivots are often presented as bold, exciting decisions. But in reality, they can involve fear, identity loss, financial uncertainty, trial and error and a lot of second-guessing.
Betsy and Trish discuss how women can recognize when it is time to make a change, identify transferable skills, build a personal brand beyond a job title and create a confident, forward-looking story about what comes next.
They also talk about the importance of networking, asking for help and building a personal advisory board that includes people who will challenge you, encourage you and offer a different perspective.
This episode is for women considering a career change, recovering from a layoff, leaving corporate America, starting a business or trying to figure out what their next chapter should look like.
