Episode 50: Turning Change into Opportunity – with Carmelina Piedra
In this episode, I sit down with career coach Carmelina Piedra to talk about what really drives career growth and business success. We explore her coaching services that span job seeking, career development, and business support, and why networking delivers far better results (a whopping 70–80%) compared to just sending out applications (only about 10%). Carmelina shares how she tailors her coaching for individuals and groups, including job-seeking cohorts, and breaks down the mix of people she supports: job seekers, proactive career builders, and even businesses and fellow coaches. We also dive into why tracking metrics and outcomes matters so much for long-term growth. Plus, Carmelina introduces her new venture, designed to help coaches launch and scale their practices.
