Before You Change Careers, Ask Yourself These 4 Questions

Thinking about a career change but not sure if it’s the right move? Before updating your resume or jumping into a new field, it’s critical to slow down and ask the right questions.

In this video, I walk through the key questions you should ask yourself when you feel ready for a career change. We talk about the difference between a role problem, an environment problem, and a season problem, and why discomfort alone is not always a signal to leave.

This is a clarity-first approach to career decisions, especially for experienced professionals who want alignment, stability, and growth without making reactive moves they later regret.

If you’re feeling stuck, burned out, or restless at work, this video will help you think more strategically about what’s driving those feelings and what to do next.

If you want to think this through strategically, the Clarity Session is linked below.
