Imagine never breaking free from your current career path simply because you fear the unknown, or doubt whether you can succeed at charting a new professional course?
Fear and doubt show up whenever we step into something new. But moving past fear and doubt can open up a whole new world of professional opportunities for you.
Fear and doubt are intertwined. Fear is often a catalyst for doubt and doubt amplifies fear. This episode unpacks how to move past fear, and why courage is built through action, not absence of anxiety.
In this episode, you will learn 5 strategies to help you move past fear and doubt when you want to pivot your career.
- Acknowledge the Doubt: Start by recognizing that doubt is a natural part of any major life change.
- Identify the Source: Try to pinpoint where their doubt is coming from.
- Reflect on Your Why: Revisit your motivations for wanting to pivot.
- Visualize Success: Use visualization techniques to imagine your success in a new career path.
- Take Action - When you take action you are intentionally moving past that fear and doubt as the action itself liberates you from the trappings of fear and doubt.
Journaling activity: Ask yourself these 2 questions:
- 'What am I afraid will happen if I pivot my career—and is there truth in that fear?'
- ‘What can I do to overcome fear and doubt?’
Fear loses power when we call it out. And its bestie, DOUBT will then have little to no power over use, or place in the path that lies ahead.
Courage grows through momentum!!

Your title and qualifications don’t capture your full career pivot value. In fact, they only tell half of your professional story.
So much of your real value - who you are, what you are passionate about, your career aspirations, etc. are not captured in what is found on your resume. If you’ve been wondering why you aren’t attracting new opportunities, particularly the type of opportunities you want for the next phase of your career, then this episode may be exactly what you need to start your breakthrough.
In this episode, I challenge you to ask yourself two questions: “What do I want to be known for?” and “How do I set myself apart professionally?”
I share key strategies that can help you position yourself for a pivot by differentiating your professional profile with a strong personal brand.
What you will learn:
- What is personal branding.
- Understand the process of strategically managing your public image.
- Why it’s important for health professionals wanting to pivot careers.
- Importance of showcasing your unique skills, expertise, and value.
- How to craft a profile that expresses your value, demonstrates your interest and tells the world what you have to offer
- Consciously craft your online and offline presence to position yourself for a pivot
TAKE ACTION: Spend some time reflecting on these points:
- Think about whether you have a personal brand and if you think you do, what does it say about you (you can ask others)
- Audit your digital profiles / online presence (what does it say about you?)
- If you don’t yet have an established personal brand, ask yourself these 2 questions:
‘What do I want to be known for?”
“How do I set myself apart?”
- Update one part of your online presence this week—your bio, profile photo, or headline—and align it with where you're going professionally,
Start creating your Personal brand today!
