Stop thinking you’re stuck. Stop thinking you can’t pivot. Stop thinking it’s too late. I was 17 years in the restaurant business before I changed to financial services. I was 15 years in financial services when I published my first book. I was 22 years in financial services when I started coaching. You are what you think you are. Start thinking you can.
Anyone else feelings stuck and unsure if they want to stay on their current career path? 🙋🏽♀️🏳

I’m so done with sales. I’m burnt out and uninspired with my job. The pay is nice, but I need something more fulfilling and less stressful. I want to be able to keep working while I figure out my “why” but I don’t want to rip my hair out in the process. *7 YOE, 6 mid market, 1 enterprise* Any ideas for an easy transition job away from sales that isn’t a giant pay cut?
Found an opp, it’s my exact skill set, I get a title increase (VP), paycheck decrease, but made up in bonuses. Worthwhile? Brand name is meh, but is fintech.It’s weird, finding it hard to quit since current comp is actually good, which I figure is by design. Golden handcuffs.
Hi friends, I have 2 year experience. I like talking and I want to be manager. Any help?
Been with a girl for few months, really enjoyed moments that we shared together and barely got into any fights. But, somehow somewhat, I don’t see that we share the same vision in our career path. She wants to settle for administration roles while I want work & travel to multiple countries, really hard for her to find those opportunities within her current roles. I like her personality a lot but I feel like really hard to share interesting topics/ my works with her. Any advice please?

Wonder if I can reapply for McK generalist/implementation sooner than in a year? Also if anyone at BB would be interested to refer me, please let me know ☺️ FS /IB/ risk consulting / strat - 5 YOE.

I don't think you can go as manager level. But you can always apply and see how it works.
Sounds good to me; honestly don’t mind a title drop as long as the pay goes up
I think you have a great chance at becoming a manager. You’d just have to explain why you want back into PA. Like a good backstory. Feel free to DM me and we can walk through practices and what you’re interested in
Thanks! I’ll reach out for sure once my days over.
