In this episode of The Career Transition Experts, we explore the powerful connection between your brain and your career decisions

Before diving into your job search, the most important question to ask yourself is not what you do, but why you do it. The brain has a dedicated "why network" that is directly linked to motivation, joy, and clarity, and when you pause to align your core values with your career goals, you give your brain the focus it needs to show up at its best. This simple but profound shift in thinking can transform not just how you search for your next role, but how you show up when you get there.

Our guest, John Edwards, founder of The Edwards Group, is a leadership futurist with decades of experience in Fortune 100 organizations across HR, organizational development, and organizational psychology. John's groundbreaking research on leadership neuroscience helps executives and managers show up at their best in the workplace and in their careers.
