Before you hire a coach read Cal Newport, “So Good They Can’t Ignore You.” It’s about how skills trump passion when making a career change. Very helpful book.

I’m also a big fan of the Clifton Strengths assessment. (Such a big fan I’m getting my certification in it). It’s not a tool meant to determine WHAT you should do but rather help identify your natural talents and areas for potential. It’s more the HOW of you which can be applied to anything you pursue in this next career. Happy to share more about it. Again, good luck!

Believe in yourself. Only you know you. Trust in yourself, your ability and your passion to succeed. You are your own book. A career coach will never be able to read it. Look back on your experiences, you know what you are good at. Talk to people you know. Discuss with friends and make your decision what’s next.

It’s a shame that you obviously work in the US and I’m in Europe because with 50 years in the business I might have been able to help.

What makes that obvious? Thing is i want out of “the business” :)

I’m in big law and on the cusp of making the jump to in-house. It sounds like the company I just interviewed with is getting ready to make me an offer. It’s definitely going to be a pay cut coming from big law but I do get some nice equity in the company. Is the jump worth it? I’m so burnt out by big law and this seems like an awesome opportunity to help shape a newish company. Any tips on how to figure out if this is the right move for me?

I am looking to make a career change to HR. I currently make 75K as a sales and development coach. I had a recent offer for a state government position in a talent acquisition role but I’d be taking a $25K pay cut. I am extremely over qualified for the position but it could possibly be a stepping stone and gives me the time to acquire SHRM certifications and possibly start taking classes to get my MBA. My question is those currently in an HR role, would this move make sense to you?
