Drawing from my own experiences, I delve into the concept of 'sunk cost fallacy', urging you to view past experiences as stepping stones rather than wasted time. I offer practical advice on identifying transferable skills, shifting thinking patterns, and seeking inspiration from successful career transitions.
Together, we'll explore the importance of embracing a growth mindset and focusing on the present moment while nurturing authenticity to find career fulfilment. Welcome to the beginning of your journey toward a more fulfilling career path!

Quotes from Episode:
“What you've been doing so far is the foundation, it’s the base layer and wherever you want to go is going to grow on top of that.”
“I want you to remember that what you have been doing is going to impact and benefit where you are going. I think it will surprise you when you make that transition to see just how much the knowledge that you gained from where you were is going to help you where you're going.”
