Episode 202: Navigating Career Pivots, Owning Your Next Chapter, and Embracing Change with Sandi Bouhadana, Career Transition Coach & Speaker


Listen Later

Big career shifts can feel scary—but they can also be the doorway to something better aligned. In this episode, I’m joined by Sandi Bouhadana, career consultant, communications coach, and host of the Open for Hire podcast, who shares her powerful story of navigating a major career pivot after being laid off from her role as Senior Director of Training & Development at Beachbody Corporate—after 16 years.

Sandi walks us through the emotional aftermath of a layoff, the deep identity work that followed, and how she ultimately found clarity and purpose in her next chapter. This conversation is full of insight for anyone who's been feeling uncertain about their path or wondering how to rebuild with intention.

We also talk about:

  • Reclaiming confidence after a major change

  • The role of adaptability in a constantly evolving workforce

  • Why understanding your unique skills + impact is everything

  • The tension between ambition and motherhood (and how to honor both)

  • And how to stay human in a world that’s increasingly driven by AI

🎧 Whether you’re navigating a job loss, career shift, or simply wondering what’s next, Sandy’s wisdom and realness will leave you feeling encouraged and empowered.

✨ And don’t miss this! We also chat about Overload 30—a brand-new, free summer workout challenge from Nourish Move Love that’s perfect for busy moms. It’s a 30-day mix of strength and HIIT workouts, all 30 minutes or less. Thank you to Nourish Move Love for sponsoring this episode! 👉 Check out Overload 30 here

Change is never easy—but it can lead to something even better than you imagined. You’ve got this 💛
