What if one more year in your “okay” career quietly costs you more than you realise?
In this episode, I speak not as an outsider, but as someone who has been there – a former dentist who stayed in a successful but misaligned career for longer than felt true.
You’ll hear:
- The three hidden ways an “okay” career drains your self-trust, energy, and relationships
- How to stop rolling the decision forward to “next year” again and again
- A simple 3-step plan to make the year ahead your pivot year, without tearing apart the life you have built
🎧 Listen now to get honest about what another “okay” year is really costing you – and how to start moving towards work that actually fits who you are now.
