Know Your Aptitudes to Direct Your Career with Confidence


Listen Later

What do you do when your career stops captivating you? These days, more and more of us are dragging ourselves through work rather than feeling energized by it. This leads to burnout, disengagement, and, often, an endless job search.

My guest today literally wrote the book on a science-backed way to identify the work that naturally suits you and figure out how to shift your career—in a minor or a major way—so that it offers more satisfaction. Betsy Willis is the author of “Your Hidden Genius” and the founder of YouScience, an online aptitude assessment platform designed to help you elevate your innate gifts.

Start advocating for a role that fulfills you by understanding:

  • The difference and overlap between aptitudes, interests, and personality;
  • The many factors that cause us to follow unsuitable career paths;
  • Why it’s never too late to explore new career possibilities.
