| 4/21/26 |  #62 When A New Career+Job Is NOT The Solution | What if your real career problem is not your current profession or career — but rather your day-to-day experience of working for someone else (as an employee)? For a number of professionals over 40, just changing careers and getting a job in that new career is not going to solve the problem. It might even make it worse. In this episode you'll discover the difference between your work SUBJECT and your work CONTEXT — and why identifying your real problem before you start looking for solutions i... | 37m 26s | ||||||
| 3/17/26 | #61 How To Increase Your Career Change Options After 40 | Do your career change options feel limited as a professional over 40? Hit play to discover why the problem isn't a lack of options — it's that you are only allowing yourself to explore 10% of them! Learn why your brain is actively keeping you stuck in that "10% Professional Silo" and why defaulting to "what am I qualified for?" is blocking out your most meaningful and exciting options. Then get ready to both change your thinking and the places you look — and dramatically increase your options... | 31m 39s | ||||||
| 5/13/25 | #60 Career Change Problems Worth Having | Changing careers or starting your own business after 35 can seem hard. But do you know what's also hard?!

Hit play to learn WHY you keep falling into this trap and HOW you can avoid or escape it - Both vital requirements if you want to (finally) get your career change or own business off the ... | 48m 34s | ||||||

Are you a professional over 35 with proven skills and experience? Then you are a perfect candidate for NOT risking it all, especially financially!

| 8/13/24 | #57 Who Do You Most Want To Work With? | Who is your who? Figuring out who you most want to work with in your new career or business is key.

Hit play to have your assumptions challenged and your career change options increased! As opposed to what you might think when you scroll through Instagram or listen to (another) hip, intimidating, 20-something start-up founder, the reality is the older you get (up until the age of 60), the better your chances are of starting and running a successful company (compa... | 28m 27s | ||||||
| 2/27/24 | #55 The Most Risky Career Change Strategy After 35! | What do YOU tend to worry about the most? The risks of changing careers or starting your own business?

Most professionals over 35 completely OVERESTIMATE the (imagined) risks of changing careers and starting their own business - All whilst completely UNDERESTIMATING (or even ignoring) the (very real) risks of staying stuck in a career they don't enjoy.

| 11/28/23 | #54 The "All Or Nothing Myth" Sabotaging Your Career Change | Do you think starting a business is unrealistic for you (as someone who needs a paycheque)? Then you are likely taking advice from people who don't have a proven track record of helping people like you! Many professionals over 35 are buying into the myth that changing careers has to be a matter of "all or nothing." So they (and maybe you?) do...nothing. Let's change that!

If so, then you are likely still stuck (in that job/career you don't enjoy)! Why? Because approaching your career change in such dramatic "Black and white"/"All or nothing" terms is frankly limiting your options.
