My Midlife Job Reset: Finding the Courage to Try Something New!

What do you do when you get tired of doing what you’ve always done and start feeling that quiet nudge to try something new? 

In this week’s solo episode, Michelle shares her story of stepping away from the family business after years of familiarity, comfort, and routine and deciding to start again in a completely different industry.  It’s been both terrifying and exciting.  From dusting off her old CV to applying for jobs that pushed her out of her comfort zone, Michelle reflects on how courage doesn’t mean you’re not scared, it simply means you’re ready to grow. 

This episode is for anyone standing at that crossroads in midlife, wondering what’s next.  Maybe you’ve lost your spark at work, or maybe you’re craving something that feels more you.  Because sometimes, the biggest breakthroughs happen when you take that first small step towards change, even when you have no idea where it might lead.
