Thousands of people walk around every single day carrying a big, uncomfortable, stressful career secret.

(Are you one of them?)

You could be if you work in a job that looks pretty impressive to other people. Maybe it’s with a brand-name company or in an industry that’s really hot right now or with incredible perks like unlimited vacation or dog Fridays or a beer tap in the kitchen. 

Other people always seem to tell you that they wish they had your job. And you *know* your career seems great on the outside. 

But here’s the whopper secret: it just doesn’t feel as good on the inside.

You don’t like that you aren’t in love with your job. 

(You wish you were!)

But the truth is...you’re not.

If you are playing “all out” in your job search right now, you want to make sure you are using every possible resource to land an awesome role. Most people know about the common resources: job aggregation sites like Indeed or LinkedIn, company websites, perhaps some niche job boards for specific industries. 

One of the resources available that not everyone utilizes is developing relationships with recruiters. Recruiters, also known as headhunters, are people who help individuals find great jobs in exchange for being paid a “finders fee” by the company. In a lot of ways, recruiters can be a fabulous resource for you in your search, as long as you know exactly what you’re looking for and you present like a great candidate for those roles. (They get paid when they place people, so they have a strong incentive to get you hired!) On The Career Clarity Show podcast, headhunter Serena Wolf tells you exactly how.

Ever notice that you can have a goal you really, really want to do...but week after week, you make absolutely no progress? Maybe it’s actually applying for a new job, putting away the laundry (instead of letting it languish in the basket...or on the other half of the bed), or finally scooping the kitty litter. (I’m sorry, Tigger!) 

It’s so frustrating to know you want to do something, but watch yourself not make any headway -- especially if you’re a high achiever who’s used to taking action. 

Here’s what’s really going on inside you: the problem isn’t that you’re not disciplined enough. It’s that you don’t understand your own motivators.

To explain further, I chatted with Career Clarity coach Kelley Shields about one of our favorite topics: inner versus outer expectations.

It’s a distressing economic time out there, folks. Whether you’ve been laid off, you’re worried about layoffs, or you know someone who’s at risk for losing their job, these economic markets are changing faster than the blink of an eye.  

That means it’s time for some continuity planning.

It’s continuity, not contingency, because our words matter. Contingency planning is thinking: “On the outside chance that this thing happens, here is what we’d do.” It’s reactive and based on maintaining your current behaviors but crossing your fingers. 

Continuity planning starts with changing behavior right now. It’s: “Here is what we do today to ensure we can weather anything that comes our way tomorrow.” 

Wouldn’t it feel good to say, “I’ve thought through a plan so I can weather anything that happens” in this season of uncertainty?

Here are five ways to prepare yourself for whatever’s around the corner in the weeks and months to come.

Ever gotten the sense that you can "think" or "know" truths beyond just using your brain?

If you are well attuned to using your intuition in your life, grab your crystals and sage, because today’s interview with intuitive (and feminist as fuck) Career Clarity coach Nicki Dunnavant is gonna help you better tap into that intuition at work and use it to align your energy with the ideal work activities for you.

Our conversation and exploration spans everything from "how do I know what intuition even is" all the way to nerding out about ornithology (and unicorns). Suffice it to say, we cover a lot of ground and try a bunch of fun metaphors to make this admittedly intangible stuff as practical and actionable (even for those who don’t skew *too* woo).
