47. On Working Your Career Plan with Mark Herschberg
47. On Working Your Career Plan with Mark Herschberg

Overview

I was pleased to be joined by Mark Herschberg author of The Career Toolkit, Essential Skills for Success That No One Taught You, for a conversation on the importance of career planning and its ROI, assessing role and culture fit when job hunting, and the benefit of learning these essential skills throughout one’s career and with others in peer learning groups.

Mark is a model of being a multi-hyphenate, someone with a serious day job, an established "side gig," and many additional talents. He's certainly not one note and has a lot to share on career management from his 20 years of teaching at MIT's "career success accelerator."

In his book, via the accompanying app, and resources on his website, Mark offers a highly practical and insightful guide to the tools you need to manage a successful career over time. It's a toolkit you can pick up at any stage to support you in where you might be going next.

Thank you so much, Mark, for sharing all your great insights and learning with us!

46. On Work from the Inside Out with Tammy Gooler Loeb

Overview

In today’s episode, I’m joined by Tammy Gooler Loeb, career and executive coach and author of Work from the Inside Out: Break Through Nine Common Obstacles and Design a Career That Fulfills You. She is also the host of the podcast of the same name.

We discuss Tammy’s new book that addresses the main obstacles that many people face in career transitions that keep them from reaching fulfillment. Tammy shows us how to break through these barriers. The book is really a wonderful mix of awareness building, storytelling through others’ experiences, and reflection and exercises to move you forward.

In our conversation, we also talk about the importance of intuition, surrounding yourself with positive people when making career transitions, and to always be learning to foster a sustainable, regenerative career.

This was a great conversation with an expert in career reinvention. Thank you for being on with me, Tammy!

45. On Planning a More Sustainable+Ambitious Year: Part 4 with Kathy Oneto
45. On Planning a More Sustainable+Ambitious Year: Part 4 with Kathy Oneto

Overview

Join Kathy Oneto, host and founder of Sustainable Ambition, for a 4-part series to help you plan a more sustainable+ambitious year ahead. We’ll explore what will be stretching for you and what will sustain you.

This series coincides with the upcoming launch of the Sustainable Ambition 12-Month Workbook+Planner: Your Life+Work Resilience Rx. The workbook+planner offers inquiries, exercises, and planning tools to help you lead a fulfilling, sustainable, and ambitious life+work. Learn more at: sustainableambition.com/planner2022

First, Sustainable Ambition is aspirational. It asks us to hold two opposing ideas—sustain and stretch—at the same time. How can we sustain ourselves (sustainable), while stretching ourselves (ambition)? That implies it is a practice that calls for perspective, personalization, pacing, and patience. And that admittedly means it isn’t easy! That is where this series comes in.

Over 4-weeks, Kathy will guide you through exercises to create a plan to help you manage a more sustainable life+work over the coming months. The goal is to create awareness and structures that foster the ability to dance in our dynamic world, learning how to both stretch and sustain ourselves. How? By knowing ourselves better, defining our own Life+Work Resilience Rx (prescription), creating a plan, practicing, and progressing over time.

Here’s a review of the series and this episode is Part #4:

  • Part #1: My Ambitions: My Next 12 Months - In this first episode, Kathy shares exercises to help you set a vision and your intentions for the coming year. What are your ambitions?

  • Part #2: My Sustainable: My Life+Work Resilience Rx - In the second episode, we’ll explore what would make your life+work sustainable—what is your personal Life+Work Resilience Rx?

  • Part #3: My 12-Month Planner + 6-Month Horizon - In the third episode, we’ll pull out our calendars and create a 12-month plan considering what you need on your calendar to allow you to stretch and sustain yourself.

  • Part #4: Quarter 1 + Monthly Planning - We’ll close the series in episode four creating our aim for the first quarter of the year and setting you up to act and then assess and adapt as you reflect at the end of the first quarter to keep you operating at your best throughout the year.

Kathy will come back each quarter to do a review with you and will come back at the end of the year for a 12-month review to see what we learned about building our own life+work resilience.

While a sustainable and ambitious life+work is aspirational, the journey may not always be easy along the way. Yet, we believe we can do it and find our way. We can take back control and be in choice to build a more sustainable life+work.

Here’s to a sustainable+ambitious 2022!

P.S. If you’d like to do this work with others, consider creating a circle of friends or professional colleagues to plan and learn together. Doing this work as part of a community can support you in setting intentions, holding yourself accountable, providing encouragement, and learning together along the way.
