  • 101: The one thing I WISH I knew before trying to get a job or start a business [Ecclesiastes 11]

    Oh man. I came across Ecclesiastes 11:1-6 this morning and thought: "THIS WOULD HAVE RESOLVED SO MUCH AGNST AND DISAPPOINTMENT if I had memorized this before trying to get a new job or start my business!"


    Because this passage perfectly sums up a life-changing lesson we often forget:


    Trying to predict the shortest path to success is often a waste of time. We don't know what God is going to work through. Just take faithful action and trust that God will probably surprise you with what ends up working out.


    In this episode, I share stories of how my career coaching clients, me in my early days in business, and even those who invest in the stock market could benefit from the lessons we can derive from these 6 verses.


    This episode is a MUST-LISTEN for anyone who is working toward a big goal (especially if you're applying for jobs or trying to start a business).

    • 97: Networking | Scared to bother people? Click to hear the 5 reasons you don't have to be

      I’m recording this episode to (hopefully once and for all) give you the PEACE and confidence you need to finally reach out to people who can make a huge difference in your career! Because the fact is, so many of us hold back from reaching out to people in companies or careers we admire, just because we’re worried about bothering them, annoying them, being pushy, or "using" them to achieve your goals.

      To me this is so sad, because the reality is that, as long as you take the obvious and simple steps to just make sure you’re respectful of their time, you aren’t bothering them at all!

      In fact, there are at least FIVE perspective-shifting truths about networking that, when I share these with my clients, they (100% of the time) take a big breath, relax their shoulders, and have a big smile of relief spread across their face as they say, “Ah. Gosh. Wow. That makes so much sense. Ok! This really isn’t a big deal! I can do this!” Then it’s so rewarding to see them go from taking little to no action, overthinking everything, worried as can be - to actually feeling totally free and excited to network to their way into an incredible career. It’s so freeing!

      So. Today I’m going to share these 5 perspective-shifting truths to help you excitedly move forward with networking, knowing that you’re not bothering anyone you’re reaching out to - in fact (!) you’re actually honoring them, giving them a chance to feel fulfilled as they help someone in a spot they were once in themselves, and in some cases, you might even be HELPING them by reaching out!

      Sound crazy? It’s not. Tune into this episode to hear the 5 reasons someone will be happy to pick up your call.

    • 96: STOP! Ask 3 people these 3 questions before deciding on your next job or career path (no matter what)

      No matter if you're confident or just mildly curious about a certain role or career path, it's imperative you ask at least 3 people these 3, rarely asked (yet incredibly important) questions before you potentially dedicate 40+ hours a week for years of your life to this new path.


      Enjoy (and take notes)!

    • 95: The 10 life-changing benefits of networking (BESIDES getting your resume passed on to hiring managers)

      Why do most people get sweaty palms when thinking about networking? Because they reduce it to a series of favors to just get your resume passed on to someone who can give you a job. No wonder they feel like networking is disingenuous, pushy, fake, and manipulative!


      The good news? There’s not only a different way to go about networking that will save you from feeling fake and manipulative, but there’s AT LEAST 10  lesser-known (but way more important) reasons to network, other than just getting your resume passed on to a potential employer.


      The 10 benefits I share in this episode, not only serve as 10 reasons for why you should start making connections, but they can also be translated into meaningful questions you can ask the person you’re talking to in these networking conversations. Btw, make sure to stick around until the very end, because you might find my last points especially surprising!


      Happy networking! Stay tuned for the rest of this Networking Miniseries!
