Rock Your Reinvention: Tips For High-Achieving Women Who Want to Successfully Exit Their Six-Figure Corporate Career

48: Navigating Career Pivots with Confidence Using the Career Compass (Step 1)

Karin Freeland Episode 48

In this tutorial-style episode, I dive deep into my new, free resource, the Career Compass. It’s a powerful tool designed to help women (like you) navigate career pivots with clarity and confidence. 

With the overwhelming response to its launch in August 2024, I recognize the increasing desire among women to take control of their career path, especially in times of uncertainty. Whether you're feeling disconnected, burnt out, or simply questioning your purpose, this episode provides actionable steps to align your career with your core values and priorities.

I’ll walk you through Step 1 of the Career Compass: Key Criteria Identification, where you’ll get crystal clear on what matters most to you both personally and professionally!

Important Tips To Remember:

  1. Don't Self-Edit: Allow yourself to dream big without judgment or fear. Write down your aspirations, no matter how unrealistic you may think they are.
  2. Nothing is Set in Stone: The Career Compass is a safe space for exploration. You don't have to commit to anything right now; it's about gaining clarity.
  3. Be Truthful: Trust your intuition and be honest about what truly matters to you in this season of your life. There are no “right” or “wrong” answers. 

Exercises Covered:

  • Identifying Core Values (Page 7-8): Start by listing the values that are most important to you. This exercise helps you clarify what truly matters in your career and life.
  • Ranking Key Life Priorities (Page 9): Narrow down your list to the top five life priorities that will guide your career decisions. 
  • Exploring Out-of-the-Box Criteria (Page 10): Consider unconventional factors that could significantly impact your job satisfaction and overall happiness.
