Whose Dream Are You Building? How to Reclaim Your Career Path
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
This week on the Unstuck Career Podcast, we're shifting the focus to dreams—yours, specifically. Too often, we find ourselves clocking in and out, helping someone else achieve their vision while our own aspirations take a backseat. I open up about my own complicated history with goals and how, for years, I felt stuck following a path laid out by others—bosses, companies, or just whatever seemed like the “logical next step.” If you’ve ever wondered why you feel unfulfilled in your work, this is the episode that challenges you to examine whose dream you’re actually building.
We’ll dig into the power of identifying your own vision, why simply doing the work isn’t enough, and the critical first steps needed to move in your own direction. I’ll share relatable stories—like how a question from my manager at FedEx made me realize I’d been living someone else’s plan for years—and why it’s time for you to claim your own. Plus, you’ll get a sneak preview of our upcoming conversation with Alexia, who’s learning to navigate her own path out of a toxic 9-to-5.
