Moving from doubt to confidence in your career is the final episode topic for this season because most of my clients, regardless of where they are in their career, struggle with doubt. For some it’s been ingrained since childhood to question your abilities, for others its a byproduct of anxiety or depression, and for some a person or situation has made you doubt yourself.

 

In this concise episode I cover common doubts I hear from clients, share doubts I’ve had in my career, and I share a situation where a leader made me doubt my abilities and how I worked through it to be successful after.

 

More than anything, I provide tactical actions and exercises you can use RIGHT NOW to help you manage and mitigate any doubt you may have in your career.

 

Our brains love to tell us that we aren’t good enough or we could never do XYZ, but when you arm yourself with information and data, you can put your brain at ease. More often than not, that’s what need to feel confident.

Negotiating a salary package can be scary and intimidating, especially if you aren’t well-versed in negotiating.

 

I titled this episode Salary Negotiation Tactics for Mid-level Professionals because I believe there are a few different strategies you can use later in your career that might not apply early in your career. Does that mean you can’t negotiate early in your career? No, but the higher you go and the more specialized your role, the more room you have to negotiate.

 

The reality is, when you are mid-level or mid-career your priorities for work and life change. What you negotiated early in your career might not matter to you now.

 

This episode will go through what you CAN negotiate that isn’t salary-related and I provide my top tips and advice as you are going through the salary negotiation process.

 

At the end of the day, always remember that you are worth it! You have value and you need to find the place that will appreciate your value and pay you for it accordingly.

The topic for this episode is around disappointment in the job search process. This is a common feeling experienced and expressed by job seekers usually when they don’t get the interview, but more prominently when they make it through multiple interviews and don’t get the position.

 

Disappointment is never easy to mitigate or manage. I have found that clients who let others control their career trajectory are prone to more disappointment because they aren’t doing the intentional work to take control of where they want their career to go. You can’t wait until you hate your position or your manager or your company to look for the next opportunity. Whether it’s in your current company or you want to move on, you need to be actively meeting with professionals, refining your career path, and sharing your hopes and dreams for your career. When you are clear about what you want and you share it, people will remember and look out for you.

 

Can we avoid disappointment in this process? Yes and no. This episode will go over my three main tips to keep in mind through the job search process to mitigate disappointment. Notice I didn’t say avoid or not have disappointment, because this is a natural reaction when we don’t achieve something we want.
