Listen Later

On today’s episode, I am joined by former client and career coach, Kim Tran.  Kim is a hiring manager and owner of Your Work Inspired, a company with a mission to provide a holistic approach to closing the wage and wealth gap for women of color regardless of job titles and industry. 

In this episode, we discuss the perceived challenges of pivoting in your career. It might feel familiar to maintain the status quo when it comes to your career but there is also power in pursuing new careers with curiosity. As a hiring manager, Kim shares three key insights on:

  • Leveraging networking to build valuable relationships

  • Determining what you love vs. what you are good at

  • Knowing when to take the leap and make a career pivot

  • Tune in as Kim, and I share our personal stories and client experiences. We hope this episode inspires you to overcome feelings of fear and overwhelm to apply for new roles. 

    In this episode, Kim and I discuss these points about career pivots:  deciding to pivot your career:
