This episode features Michelle Smith who has personal experiences of transitioning between jobs and now helps others make this change easier and faster. Michelle coaches’ people who have lost their job due to COVID to:
· File for unemployment – you have earned it – use it
· Try to stay positive – yes, your life has changed – but you have not, and you will find that next great opportunity
· Give yourself a few weeks to grieve – you need to get this out of your system before you start to interview
· Start to schedule your day – you need structure and focus so you can be effective in your search.
You will learn about “dragon slaying stories” and the importance of them in your search, the importance of volunteer activities in your networking and the need to be a lifelong learner.
Michelle is so real and vulnerable in sharing her own journey – I know you will be glad you listened to this episode and will be able to implement techniques she suggests immediately.
