How fulfilled are you right now on a scale of 1 to 10? If you answered lower than an 8, then you've probably already been actively searching for something new.  But with the average search for a new job taking 12 months, often with a pay cut of anywhere from $20,000 to $60,000, it's clear that something about the “traditional” method isn't working.  In fact, this depressing scenario is completely avoidable.  
There is a better way to find work that will bring you more fulfillment and financial gain.  You just have to know how and where to look for it.  Today on The Bridge to Fulfillment, Blake answers the most common questions you're probably asking yourself as you begin your search. She unravels the mystery as to why the typical job search method isn't really working for you, and how you can avoid compromising financially or giving up on what makes you happy.  In this episode, you'll learn how to avoid the most common job search mistakes as you look for more fulfilling work. You'll learn how to dig deeper and understand the root causes of your unhappiness, allowing you to get clear about exactly what it is that you're looking for.   If you're ready to ​​transition into work that is more fulfilling while having the balance that you want and maximizing your income, then this episode is for you. What You'll Learn: • Common questions that come up when you're looking for a career change (0:39)
 • Why so many of the solutions you find aren't creating the change you need (1:41)
 • The biggest mistake people make when they look for a new job (2:31)
 • Unlocking your fulfillment framework (6:43)
 • Why it's so challenging to find clarity on your own (11:19)
 Favorite Quotes: 1. There are so many resources out there that are talking about how to land the next job. But the problem is a lot of it is very cookie cutter. It really isn't there to solve the root cause of why you want to make a change, it's just helping you move from one place to another.
 2. We overestimate the level of clarity we have. But it's nowhere near enough to be successful in our job search and ultimately fix the root cause.
 3. The best place to start your job search is actually with you, it doesn't start with the tactics. 
 4. Being able to get impartial expert advice from somebody who can help you see the path, with a proven process to be able to help get you there, is the key to being able to find fulfillment.
 Additional Resources:  Rather than hoping the grass will be greener, identify what the RIGHT next step is.  We can help you do just that.  Get clarity on where you are on your journey to career fulfillment, where you're headed, optional paths to get there, and the right next step to take.
