Carin started down her current path as she came out of a Director-level role where she never felt like she could show up as her authentic self. As a result, it completely stripped her of her confidence. She helps other women leaders make sure they do their own inner work to lead their teams confidently. Carin is an outdoor adventurer who served in the Peace Corps twice (Paraquay and Panama) - she still loves to travel and experience new cultures and places.

Join host Lynn Debilzen in this enlightening interview with Dr. Sarabeth Berk on Redraw Your Path!

In this interview, Lynn learns about Sarabeth’s journey as a Creative Disruptor, from ski school instructor, art educator, academic, professional identity researcher, and writer. Their conversation touches on:

• Whether knowing your root “WHY” is essential to taking your next steps (spoiler: it’s not!)
• How career paths might be an old notion and way to think about career - there’s also career flight, career freeze, career fight, and career flying

Tune in for a dynamic discussion on life and growth!

About Sarabeth:

Dr. Sarabeth Berk is the leading expert on hybrid professional identity and career belonging. She was featured in Forbes, is a TEDx speaker and is the author of More Than My Title. Dr. Berk’s formal title is Chief of Staff at Talent to Team, but she calls herself a Creative Disruptor because she works at the intersection of being an artist, researcher, educator, and designer. It took an identity crisis for her to realize she actually integrates these identities together and that’s where her unique value lies.

‌Through groundbreaking research, Dr. Berk developed a one-of-a-kind approach that takes personal branding and career development to a whole new level. Today, she helps professionals discover and articulate their professional identity and unique value in the workforce. As a result, her clients feel more seen, empowered and confident, and teams recognize each other as more than their job titles, valuing the critical yet different roles of experts, generalists, and hybrids in the workforce.

‌Dr. Berk obtained her PhD from the University of Denver, and has degrees from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and Rhode Island School of Design. She resides in Boulder, Colorado with her two pups (a golden retriever and miniature schnauzer) and partner who is also a hybrid professional.
