Episode notes

I think i'm squarely in the actionable phase. And so something i've seen work really well for me is open communication, upwards and downwards. So being mindful of how i'm communicating this new role that i've put myself inr or this new way i think about my roll, is one way i'm trying to keep on track. It's not just with your husband, but with the people you work with and work for. How about you? Where do you see yourself in these three phases? And how are you thinking about making things stick?

It’s one thing to know you want to upgrade your work life. It’s another to take the steps necessary to establish a new routine and career outlook. There are three phases to any major life change, according to management research findings: separation, experimentation, and reintegration.

Making a change is possible, manageable, and worth the effort. As proof, two women who are well into the process reflect on the steps they took to come as far as they have, as well as the payoff they’ve seen in their lives.
