106. Career Change: Embracing Your New Identity with Lee Chaix McDonough
One of the joys of making a career change is becoming something or someone new. Reinventing ourselves. Letting go of the old and donning on a new hat that more closely aligns with who we are today and how we want to show up in the world. But this can sometimes be a double-edged sword. As beautiful as it may sound, this evolution can also be daunting. It can be surprisingly challenging to let go of our old, established identities. Even harder is identifying the beliefs we’ve always had about what success looks like or sounds like — and releasing those that no longer serve us. We explore this with business coach, author, and fellow podcaster, Lee Chaix McDonough.
