Season 8: Let's Control Your Career
Control Your Career – Phase 4 – Initiate Action (S8E5)
Podcast Audio Only:
This episode is about taking action toward your goals, hence the name - Initiate Action. Phase 4 takes what you outlined in Phase 3 and starts to put it in to action.
Since taking action toward your goals is going to be specific to the goals you outline for yourself, this episode will take three of the main career goals I see and outline some actions you can take if you're in one of these situations.
If you've been to my website, you'll notice that my resources are outlined using these three options as well, because most everyone falls into one of them.
I go through basic actions for those focused on career exploration, career management, and career advancement.
Debriefing is also an important part of this phase and the process overall. This episode also includes a few debrief questions I use with clients when we're evaluating their progress and where to focus next.
What's the action for this episode?
I mean, the title of this phase is Initiate Action, but my hope is that you've identified where you're at and what needs to happen to move forward. If you've done that, start working through the actions you've identified to reach your goal. and don't forget to debrief!

A little bit about Julia:
I started this journey in a counseling-focused master of science program where my then passion was working with college students. I spent 8 years working in higher education in various roles within university career offices helping everyone from freshmen to doctoral students to mid-career alumni to encore career alumni figure out their path in their current season of life. I spent my time coaching and creating career programs and I'm using that experience to create a career management and advancement program that is everything you need to get where you want to go.
I found my niche and passion working with new and mid-career managers who have lost their way, are in toxic environments, or who are so high-achieving they don't know where they fit in the working world. I support and respect the need for people to have a 9-5 job and I help you find your place and path in your career journey.
I'm also certified and educationally eligible to administer and interpret multiple personality and interest assessments, which I use in my coaching program.
It's important to note that I didn't wake up one day and decide to do this work. I'm highly trained in coaching and counseling, have been part of multiple career-related professional associations and I LOVE this work.
I look forward to connecting with you and helping you find success in you career, whatever that looks like for you.
