Descripción del Episodio

You’ve admitted the career no longer fits. Now what?

In Part Two, Helen Hanison, former global PR executive turned executive career coach, walks us through what real change takes—beyond pep talks and pivot memes. She unpacks her three-act framework (Alignment, Redesign, and Transformation), explains why people cling to jobs they secretly loathe, and warns against the “anchor bias” that keeps us chasing the same dream long after it’s stopped making sense.

From spotting your outdated success scripts to mapping out future obstacles, Helen makes the case that career reinvention isn’t linear—it’s a zigzag of bold choices, mindset shifts, and quiet resilience. If you’re ready to do the inner work instead of just tweaking your LinkedIn title, this episode is your field guide.


Key Highlights of Our Interview:

Alignment Before Action

“If you skip alignment, you’re just kicking the wrong can down the road.”

Why getting unstuck starts with strengths, values, and purpose—not a job board scroll.

Beware the Anchoring Trap

“The first idea you fall in love with? It’s probably not the right one.”

How to test-drive multiple versions of your future instead of clinging to the shiny one.

Redesign as a Contact Sport

“Agile career design means you keep moving, even when the path gets messy.”

Helen shares how mini-experiments and pilot tests beat fantasy-level planning.

The Psychology of Not Quitting

“Hitting the wall isn’t failure. It’s a push-off point.”

Hope Mapping, resilience habits, and the real mindset work behind meaningful transformation.

Outgrowing the Old Career Narrative

“Perseverance is not always noble—it can be your trap.”

Letting go of the stories, scripts, and social prescriptions that no longer serve you.
