Applying to jobs online doesn’t work.

Here’s a better way:

Before a job is posted, it’s talked about among hiring managers and HR.

This is the hidden job market at every company.

You want your name to be in those discussions.

You get your name in those discussions by having conversations with hiring managers and HR at your target companies.

It’s one of the steps in my #CareerBlueprint program which I designed to help get you out of the apply-pray-reject cycle.

529 Plan VERSUS Prepaid

We live in Florida and currently have a Freshman in High School and a 16 month old. We hear from our friends and family with college bound children "I wish we would have done Florida PrePaid." After obviously ignoring this for years, we are finally trying to do it before "it's too late" for both children.

Does anyone have recommendations on which plan to go with for each child? I once did the pros and cons on a whiteboard and it seemed like 529 was better.

Really looking for a way to turn around a toxic building culture with staff to staff bullying, cliques/social isolation, hard feelings on big topics (racism, non acceptance of gender identity).

Now I need to regain trust and eliminate unacceptable teacher behaviors. Open to any and all advice.

Mid-year review time.

Are you meeting or exceeding your objectives?

I’m not talking about the objectives your manager set FOR YOU.

I’m talking about the goals YOU set for YOU.

- Finding work that fulfills you
- Joining the company that aligns with your values
- Getting paid what you’re worth

No one sets these for you. You do the work.

There’s still 201 days in 2022.

“Think” you’re ready? I don’t work with “maybes”.

“Hell yes” you’re ready! DM me for a free coaching session.

Your mind is like your news feed.

Negative thoughts on repeat is like hitting the “Like” button on negativity:

“I can’t change.”
“I’m not good enough.”
“This is all I know.”

Negative self talk will produce more negative self talk.

You can retrain your brain to ignore negative thoughts and “Like” positive thoughts that help you. When you do, possibilities and productivity increase.

It takes time to change thought patterns.

A coach will get you there faster.

DM me if you need help.

If you want more from your career, but you can’t stop thinking about how stuck you are, you won’t get more from your career.

Thoughts —> Beliefs —> Actions —> Change

1. Think: what would “a better career” look like? Write it down.

2. Believe you deserve it. Believe it’s yours before you have it.

3. Take action:

- Suggest improvements at work
- Look for new job opportunities

4. The change in you already occurred and the next change will be in your career.

If you’re “Networking” you’re doing it wrong.

Would you walk up to someone you’ve never met at a dinner party and ask for their number?

That’s what a connection request without a note is like.

Not interested.
