Getting what you want from your career
|
Hello Reader, We're almost halfway through 2024. Have you taken a moment to review how your first half of 2024 has been? What do you want to focus on for the second half of 2024? I just completed my May review. I do a weekly and monthly review, where I ask:
My goal in 2024 is to streamline and focus on doing 1 or 2 things well. This includes making friends on LinkedIn and sharing my lessons and insights about career, money, and success. Most of the past 2 decades have been spent raising my kids and working to provide a good life for our family. Now that the kids are growing up, I'm shifting gears to focus on the next phase in my career where I give back by helping women navigate their careers. This is how it is with our careers. It ebbs and flows with the seasons of our lives. Switching up pace, intensity, and focus depending on what season of life we're in. Yet, most people treat their careers like a straight line, starting at some entry level and progressing upward until they retire. The reality is that our careers are more like cycles and seasons. Sometimes they take detours, u-turns, and slow down before speeding up again. Some parts even die so that new life can emerge. This is normal, and the whole point of it all, so we get to learn and grow along the way. Unfortunately, many people get discouraged and disillusioned when things don't go as they expected (me included). But the results and outcomes we want are just signposts. They guide us to become the kind of people who get those results. You don't get the result you want unless you first become the kind of person who gets those results. With 2024 halfway through, take a few moments to reflect on the past half a year, and set your priority for the next half. Who do you have to become to get what you want in your career? This will be your focus for the second half of 2024 so you can go make that happen! Sharon P.S.

If you’re feeling exhausted, discouraged, or disillusioned right now, you’re not failing, you’re in a growth season. Career and business momentum doesn’t disappear because you’re tired. It disappears when exhaustion turns into self-doubt and quiet withdrawal. Momentum isn’t built by doing more. It’s built by staying connected to who you’re becoming, even in low-energy seasons. This guide will help you keep moving forward without burning out, abandoning your goals, or forcing productivity that...
This week’s podcast was a personal one. I talked about the moment I realised my 'stable' corporate job was not safety and what I’ve learned after almost 30 years in HR about real financial security for women. Here’s a summary of the key ideas, plus one simple action step you can take this week.

But from the HR side, I’ve seen: People made redundant in...
Have you ever written a LinkedIn post, felt good about it, then suddenly your chest tightens, your mind races, and you quietly close the app? You tell yourself, 'This is silly. It’s just LinkedIn.' But your body feels like you’re about to step on stage in front of 10,000 people. In this week’s podcast episode, I break down why that happens and what you can do about it. This isn’t about algorithms or content tricks. It’s about the psychology behind your fear of being seen. Your Brain Is Wired...
