If I was looking for a career change right now, I wouldn’t spend a moment applying to jobs online. My background is a mix of consulting, customer success, finance, bizops, marketing, and now entrepreneurship… it’s pretty difficult to craft a compelling narrative using a resume alone. If you’re also a generalist or pivoter reshaping your career, you already know: the online application game is not in your favor. (Frankly, it's not in anyone's favor). And if you’re ready for a career change but...

A single mindset shift changed the course of my career: Back when I first started questioning if my career path in consulting was the right fit for me, my mindset was all over the place. I often found myself thinking… I’d have to take a paycut if I leave I’m not qualified for anything else I’ll disappoint my mentors here I don’t have another network I’m too much of a generalist Here’s what changed: I remembered that I'm the CEO of my career. aka I'm the final decision-maker with the power to...

Calling all career changers!!! If you’re reading this, I know you’re not here to settle. Your goal is to build a career you’re excited to wake up for. One that leverages your talents, challenges you to grow, gives you freedom to live your best life, and pays you more than comfortably. Why? So you can say yes to any trip with friends, give your (future) kids the best opportunities, and rest easy on Friday after work — knowing you're making a positive impact in the world. Obviously. Yeah Katy,...

When you’re a high achiever, you’re used to being good at… pretty much anything you try. Here’s the downside: you start avoid trying things where you could fail. Because what does it mean about you if you can’t do it?! This fear of failure manifests in delayed dreams. I would know. I’ve spent collectively years delaying what I know I want to do out of fear: Writing on Twitter - 2 months Pivoting to startups - 3 months Launching a podcast - 6 months Starting my business - 3 months Evolving...

It’s July 4th in the USA today!!! 🎇 Which makes me think of fireworks, BBQs, ice cold watermelon, jean shorts… and FREEDOM. Since I wrote about My Ultimate Goal a few weeks ago, I’ve been thinking a lot about freedom. It seems appropriate to talk about it more in depth on America’s Independence Day. Freedom sums up my list of core values. Since you're here to build your life and career by design, my guess is it's high on your list too. Freedom is the opposite of force, it's all about flow....

I'll be traveling until August, so I had a lot of packing to do. I had every reason NOT to do the masterclass this week. But I decided to go for it.To stop overthinkingTo stop doubting myselfTo take the messy actionTo show myself what's possibleTo let go and let God fill in the gapsI had no idea how many people would sign up when I...

My dream is to build a life I don’t need to escape from. One where I love Tuesdays as much as Saturdays. And I’m not willing to wait til I retire at 60 to do it. The hardest part about this? The standard work schedule is Monday through Friday. If you share a similar dream and (1) you need to work to make money, (2) your work doesn’t energize you, and (3) you don’t have autonomy over your schedule, it’s gonna be pretty difficult to make it happen. Weekdays are 70% of the week — so you'll...

Most people view their next career or life move as a step-change from the previous one. This thinking is flawed. It leaves no room for reinvention, locks you into a fixed path, and ignores that life is a canvas to be painted on. Your life is a masterpiece, not paint-by-numbers 🎨 I always believed you can do anything you set your mind to — in theory. But I didn’t fully believe it until I discovered Dr. Benjamin Hardy’s work. He’s a renowned organizational psychologist and author. A few months...
