Passing your National Licensing Exam

Ever wondered how the psychological stages of development influence your career choices? Join Stacy and Linton as they navigate David Teedman and Robert O'Hare's anticipation implementation model, revealing the emotional and cognitive steps behind career decision-making. This episode isn't just theory; it's peppered with relatable examples from astronauts to therapists that illuminate the common dilemmas faced when making critical career decisions. We're taking New York counseling interns and curious minds alike on a journey through the four stages of the anticipation phase—exploration, crystallization, choice, and clarification—to dissect how these milestones reflect on your professional trajectory.
Transitioning seamlessly to the implementation phase, we share tales from the field, including a microbiologist's shift to customer service in pursuit of work-life harmony, only to find a mismatch. These personal stories underscore the non-linear path of career evolution and the necessity of aligning one's job with their life and values.
