We spend at least 40% of our day (at minimum) dealing with our careers. Forty Percent! That’s a lot of time spent focused on one area of our life, and if you’re not satisfied your job may feel like a prison to you. As someone who has been fired, and laid off multiple times, I know first hand the impact this has on your life.
This week I have a lively discussion with executive Career and leadership coach Amy Sanchez. I chose the title of the show – Don’t Flee to Another Job You’ll Hate, Instead Learn the Secrets to Finding a Career You’ll Love – because I’ve done just that over the years and it’s never turned out good! I’ve gone from job to job, grabbing on to the nearest lifeboat, no matter how inflated that boat was. This desperation led me to recreate the same situation with a new job title at a new company, I was not living the create what you speak lifestyle.
If you are in a similar situation, I have good news for you today. Amy is going to help us get really clear about finding personal and professional satisfaction, and surprisingly quitting your job might not be the answer. We talk about opportunities that become available when chaos hits (especially if you are facing that now with particular mandates you don’t agree with). All things are possible and you might be surprised at what good comes on the other side of the chaos. Be sure to listen until the end of the episode when Amy shares a cool story of how her company name, Swim Against The Current, came to be. This is a true example of signs being all around us if you are willing to look!
