Leaving a Great Job: The Best Career Decision I Ever Made - Vivi's Career Change Story

Mon, 21 Apr 2025

The guilt of wanting more from a "good job" weighs heavier than the job itself. "Who am I to complain?" you wonder, as your creativity withers and Sunday nights fill with dread. What if your dissatisfaction isn't a character flaw but your internal compass screaming that you've wandered off course?

What you’ll learn

  • How to recognize when you've outgrown your comfortable job
  • How your signature strengths connect to career satisfaction

From “Biggest Mistake of My Life” to the “Best Fit of My Life” - Kate's Career Change Story

Mon, 14 Apr 2025

The regret hits you like a wave: "I've made a terrible mistake." Years of education, identity, and effort seemingly wasted on the wrong career choice. But what if that mistake isn't the end of your story? What if it's actually the beginning of something better?

Kate Gleason Bachman felt this crushing weight after realizing her nursing career wasn't what she had imagined. Despite following her passion for social justice into healthcare, the reality gap between expectations and daily work left her questioning everything.

In this episode, Scott explores how Kate transformed her "biggest mistake" into the "best fit" by courageously designing a unique career combination rather than abandoning her nursing background entirely.

What you'll learn:

  • Why your job doesn't need to be terrible to justify making a change
  • How to break free from sunk cost thinking
  • Why creating the perfect career often means combining multiple elements instead of finding everything in one place
