Episode 22: The Comeback
Description
Is a comeback really about starting over, or is it about reclaiming your place with newfound strength? Inspired by Lady Gaga’s ‘Abracadabra’ video being labeled a comeback, this episode of The Career Myths Podcast explores what it really takes to return to the spotlight in your career.
We’re breaking down three major myths:
🔄 You Have to Start Over Completely – Is a comeback the same as starting from scratch, or can you leverage past experience?
🕵️ You Need to Justify the Gap – Do you always have to explain every career break, or is it okay to move forward without over-explaining?
🚪 Once You Leave, You Can’t Go Back – Is it possible (or even smart) to return to a former company or industry?
Whether you're re-entering the workforce, switching careers, or simply redefining your professional path, this episode is packed with insights to help you make your own comeback—on your terms.
