↳ Reflect on when work excites and energizes you.
↳ Identify moments where you feel most fulfilled.
↳ Focus on your strengths and passions. - Disconnect from Expectations

↳ Align your choices with your own desires. - Take Small, Unconventional Steps
↳ Experiment with new projects and side hobbies.
↳ Speak to people in roles that inspire you.
↳ Clarity comes through taking small, bold actions. - Redefine Success
↳ Success is personal, not defined by others.
↳ Define success based on what matters to you.
↳ Pursue what aligns with your values and goals. - Give Yourself Permission to Change
↳ Careers are not linear; it’s okay to pivot.
↳ Shifting paths doesn’t mean you’ve failed.
↳ View your career as evolving, with new chapters. - Reconnect with Your Values
↳ Identify your core values and past alignment.
↳ Ensure your next move honors these values.
↳ Use values as a compass for career decisions. - Seek Advice but Trust Yourself
↳ Get guidance, but trust your gut first.
↳ Mentors should guide you, not decide for you.
↳ Ultimately, only you know what’s right for you.
Your career isn’t a straight line.
It’s a journey of self-discovery.
