| 6/23/26 | 354: What Tough Feedback Is Really Telling You | Send us Fan Mail This video is about My Feedback can be difficult to hear, especially when it conflicts with how you see yourself. You believe you are confident, but someone describes you as dismissive. You consider yourself collaborative, yet colleagues experience you as closed off. You think you are being decisive, but your team sees you as unwilling to listen. That disconnect may feel unfair. However, it can also reveal one of the most important factors affecting your leadership growth... | 26m 53s | ||||||
| 6/16/26 | 353: Own Your Career Growth in This Job Market | Send us Fan Mail What if the biggest risk to your career isn't getting laid off, but assuming someone else is responsible for your growth? For years, many professionals were told that if they worked hard, stayed loyal, and delivered results, their company would invest in their development and help them advance. Today's workplace looks very different. With AI reshaping jobs, organizations cutting budgets, and professional development often treated as optional, waiting for someone else to guide... | 20m 44s | ||||||

| 2/24/26 | 337: When Leadership Holds You Back | Send us Fan Mail Have you ever felt stuck working for a boss who will not advocate for you, invest in your development, or support your growth? Many mid-career professionals do strong work while feeling invisible, overlooked, and unsure how to move forward. In this episode, I tackle a reality that many mid-career professionals face but rarely discuss openly. Weak or ineffective leadership is common, but it does not define your future. I walk you through practical strategies to pro... | 27m 51s | ||||||

In this episode, I sit down with leadership strategist and Forbes senior contributor Nell Derick Debevoise Dewey, Nell 3D, to challenge one of the biggest myths mid-career professionals face today: that doing more is the only way forward. We explore how strategic subtraction can actually help you become more effective, more influential, and more fulfilled in your w... | 35m 29s | ||||||
| 2/10/26 | 335: Mid-Career and Unsure What’s Next? Start With This One Move | Send us Fan Mail Feeling stuck in your career while the job market feels crowded and unpredictable? You are not alone. Many mid-career professionals are navigating confusing signals right now. Job boards are flooded, promotion paths feel unclear, and AI-generated applications are making it harder than ever to stand out. In this episode, I bring things back to one powerful idea that can help you move forward with clarity and confidence. Choose one primary strategy and commit to it.&n... | 15m 55s | ||||||
| 2/3/26 | 334: Stop Saying “I’m Passionate” in Interviews and Start Showing Your Value | Send us Fan Mail One word keeps showing up in interviews with mid-career professionals, and it may be holding you back more than you realize. That word is passion. In this episode, I break down why employers already assume you care about your work and why passion alone is not what helps you stand out in today’s competitive job market. At mid-career, hiring decisions are less about enthusiasm and more about clarity, credibility, and measurable results. If you feel stuck, undervalued, or fr... | 22m 41s | ||||||

You are not alone. In this episode, I sit down with Mitch Matthews, success coach and host of the Dream Think Do podcast, to unpack what real career change looks like when you stop waiting for permission and start creating it yourself. We talk candidly about that moment when you are busy, accomplished, and respected, yet no longer energized by the work you are doing. Mitch shares a powerful p... | 32m 50s | ||||||
| 1/20/26 | 332: Settling for “Fine” at Mid-Career: Why Silence Is Costing You Influence, Pay, and Opportunity | Send us Fan Mail “Fine” sounds harmless, but at mid-career it is often a warning light. In this episode, I unpack why quiet professionalism can be misread as low ambition and how being seen as reliable can quietly turn into being perceived as replaceable. If you are job-hugging for stability, I help you distinguish between a smart season of skill-building and a slow slide into stagnation, and then show you how to course-correct with intention. We’ll explore the psychological cost ... | 22m 03s | ||||||

How to Build Career Clarity That Gets You Hired | Send us Fan Mail If you feel stuck in your job search even though you are doing all the right things with your resume and LinkedIn, you are not alone. I see this pattern every day with mid-career professionals who are smart, capable, and experienced but still not getting traction in today’s market. In this episode, I flip the script on how most people think about career growth and job search at mid-career. Job titles are not destinations. They are outcomes. When you build real caree... | 22m 25s | ||||||
| 1/6/26 | 330: How I Turned Feeling Stuck Into A Career I Love | Send us Fan Mail Career Momentum and Getting "Unstuck" Starts With How You SHOW UP Career momentum does not come from doing more. It comes from showing up with clarity, intention, and confidence, especially at mid-career. In this opening episode of the year, I share my personal journey from classroom teacher to leadership and career coach, and the moment when being fine was no longer enough. I walk you through the experiences that shaped how I think about careers today, from turning classic g... | 30m 43s | ||||||
