Changing careers can feel a bit like a divorce. But not just from a job.
It can feel like breaking up with a part of yourself.
The part that introduced you at conferences.
The part that signed emails with a certain title.
The part that felt proud when people asked: “So what do you do?”
When public sector leaders tell me they’re considering a career change, they say it feels like a confession.
Because it doesn’t just feel like leaving a role. It feels like letting go of who they’ve been for years, for decades. And THAT can feel existential.
In this episode, I talk about why career change can feel intense on an identity level, and how you can navigate that transition with more clarity and self-compassion.
