If you feel like your career has become a long to-do list decided by someone else, this episode will give you tools to grow your potential for yourself.

I spoke with Sue Moseley a Senior Careers Consultant at King's college in London behind the strategy of Careers Education for the Health sciences. She has helped many healthcare professionals on the path to flourishing in their careers.

Her advice will take you from checking off someone else’s list to deciding your next best steps for yourself.

Listen to this episode to hear Sue's valuable advice on:
- Asking yourself the right questions when you're thinking of a career change
- Getting ahead in your career on your own schedule
- Navigating uncertainty and freeing ourselves from the expectations of others

Mentioned in the show:

7 Questions to consider if you're thinking about career change (adapted from King's Careers and Employability - 7 factors of success):

1. How can I use my current knowledge and experience? E.g. qualifications, degrees, working experience etc.

2. How can I continue to thrive and move forward as I shift identity? E.g. developing on good habits

3. How can I explore new career options? E.g. online research, talk to people working in my area of interest etc.

4. How can I deepen my knowledge and understanding of myself? Journalling, asking family and friends what they've observed about me etc.

5. What are my goals in the short, medium and long term, and which actions do I need to take?

6. How can I tell my career change story in a compelling way when looking for new opportunities?

7. What practical things I need to consider? E.g. money and location etc.
