The episode discusses how high-achieving women can pivot their careers without starting over, focusing on burnout and self-reflection.
Have you ever loved your job but realized it was draining you instead of fueling you? You’re not alone. In this episode, career transition coach and founder of Foot in the Door Consulting, Ibiyemi Balogoun, joins me to explore what happens when passion meets burnout. We dive deep into why so many high-achieving women in midlife are reevaluating their careers, how to recognize the early signs of burnout before it becomes a health crisis, and what it really takes to reposition yourself for a career that fits this next chapter of life. This is not your typical “update your resume and apply” advice. It is about thoughtful reflection, understanding your value, bypassing the rigid hiring process, and finding the side doors into opportunities that align with your purpose. If you’ve ever said: “I love my work, but I can’t keep going like this.” “I feel stuck, but I don’t know what else I can do.” “I know I’m ready for a change, but I don’t know where to start.” —this conversation is for you.
