“You've got to get yourself into a position to exit and then put time on your side. Don't be in a rush to sell, but when you are ready, put a deadline in place for buyers to make an offer.” In this episode of The Inner Chief podcast, I speak to Dean Salakas, former Party People CEO, on Being sale-ready, forecasting like a CFO, and selling confidently on your terms.

In this episode of "Cocoon Conversations" on the Career Flipper podcast, I, Jenny Dempsey, take you along on my career journey.  This year, I've committed to opening up about my own career flip, just as I encourage my guests to do. So here we are, in May 2025, and I can hardly believe it's been four months since I started my current day job. It feels surreal to say that, especially considering I was laid off for two years before this.During this time, I've been balancing my full-time job with furniture restoration on the side, dedicating Sundays to it, and squeezing in podcasting and all the related tasks whenever I can. If that sounds overwhelming, it is! Life can be a juggling act, and I know I'm not alone in feeling this way. Scheduling time with friends often feels like a game of Tetris, as we all navigate our busy lives.I've always been the type of person who thrives on variety. I'm the one multitasking—doing laundry while putting away dishes, preparing to record a podcast, creating social media content for my furniture flipping page, and making sure my dog, Dwight, gets outside for a potty break. My brain has always thrived on this mix of activities, and I've been like this for as long as I can remember.Looking back, I've come to realize something significant. For a long time, I believed that work—capital W work—was my identity. I thought it was the only thing I was good at. I didn't believe in taking vacations; if I did, I'd bring my laptop along and continue working. I even had a panic attack in front of a customer service team I was managing because I was so consumed by my job. I poured everything into my work, only to learn the hard way that companies would replace me in an instant. When I was laid off and struggled to find a new job for two years, I was left questioning my identity. Who was I if I wasn't working?I dive into this and more in the episode!

She helps dogs thrive, feel better, eat better, and live longer—with a perfect blend of heart, soul, and science. It's the ultimate plot twist! We dive into how Alexia transitioned from thinking she was locked into a creative and academic career to discovering her true calling in canine wellness. She talks about embracing discomfort, leaning into the chaos, and the identity shift that comes with going from “I thought I'd be doing X forever” to “Wait, maybe I'm meant to help dogs heal instead?”We also get into how Alexia created Mystic Dog Mama, her podcast and community focused on holistic pet care and personal growth, all while leaning into the weirdness of following unexpected paths.

In this episode, Cindy Esliger talks about choosing to opt out of toxic dynamics in the workplace. We don't need to continue trying to win the approval of toxic coworkers. We can disengage and break free from the harmful patterns. It isn't about giving up, it's an act of self-protection and empowerment. Cindy explains how to identify toxic dynamics and provides guidance on how to step back and reclaim our control and confidence.To help us see the truth behind motives, Cindy identifies five common tactics used to camouflage toxic behavior: 1) Manipulation, 2) Gaslighting, 3) Devaluing others, 4) Entitlement, and 5) Dismissiveness. These behaviors are often subtle and cumulative. Over time, they play into our self-doubt and create a toxic atmosphere. To turn our attention away from them and back to what we can control, Cindy offers these steps: 1) Reframe our role, 2) Detach emotionally, and 3) Reclaim our narrative.In the effort to disengage, toxic people can have extreme reactions, which make the effort more challenging. Cindy offers four ways to stay grounded while reclaiming our control: 1) Stop trying to change them, 2) Hold boundaries, 3) Stop feeding the cycle, and 4) Redirect energy. Once we have successfully disengaged from the toxic workplace scenario, we can focus on healing and growth. While toxic workplaces are draining and demoralizing, they don't have to hold us hostage. This episode shows how to get our power back. Resources discussed in this episode:Guide to Disengaging from Toxic Workplace DynamicsAstronomic AudioConfidence Collective—Contact Cindy Esliger Career Confidence Coaching: website | instagram | facebook | linkedin | email

“We need to get better, better, better at core. Not newer, bigger, different.”   Chief, today we cover something that is absolutely dominating everyone's thoughts in a hyper-distracted world, and that is cutting out the noise and getting back to strategic intent and focus. Executive teams are under relentless pressure; from technological change, shifting workforce expectations, and increasing compliance, to the ever-present noise of geopolitics and market urgency, it's easy to get pulled in a hundred directions and lose sight of what actually drives value. When leadership spreads itself too thin, focus disappears, risk increases, and performance suffers. Chief, getting back to your core business is more important now than ever. I share the framework I use with Chiefs and boards across the globe to help them identify their true strategic priorities, cut through distraction, and optimise their systems to deliver real impact. Because when leaders waste energy on the wrong things, the business pays the price: in culture, in profit, and in reputation.

In this episode, Cindy Esliger discusses the cycle of unrealistic expectations and false promises that keeps us striving indefinitely. It's not just exhausting, it feeds into a culture that thrives on our self-doubt and overwork. We're left blaming ourselves instead of identifying the truth, which Cindy explains isn't us but the system that maintains control with ever-moving goalposts. How do we break free from this unending grind? Cindy tells us how to create an authentic and fulfilling career independent of other people's arbitrary standards. Cindy calls the coercive control loop of false promises ‘future faking'. It erodes our confidence and fosters burnout. Continuing to shift the goalposts is designed to keep us striving but never arriving. It's a demoralizing control tactic that is used to maintain control and keep us off-balance. When we let it get to us, we start doubting ourselves, which causes us to double down in effort. Cindy says the first step to stop playing the game is recognizing that we don't have to prove our worth, and the second step is to redefine what success means to us. There are three common patterns that prevent us from taking back our power. 1) Unrealistic expectations, 2) Invisible work, and 3) Toxic dynamics. When we can identify those patterns, we can see them for what they are and reclaim our confidence and agency. Cindy offers a roadmap for how to acknowledge future faking and stop internalizing the problem. With her guidance, we can shift the power dynamic and choose ourselves, our goals, our values, and our well-being instead of playing a rigged game.Resources discussed in this episode:Guide to Stop Hanging On To False PromisesAstronomic AudioConfidence Collective—Contact Cindy Esliger Career Confidence Coaching: website | instagram | facebook | linkedin | email

Guest In a career that spanned a quarter-century, Ted Czech covered crime for newspapers in three states. Disenchanted with how journalism was taught and practiced, Czech launched a second career in public relations in 2021 and began work on Saving the Beast: A Recovering Reporter Reflects on America's Broken Media and How to Fix It. Why This Episode Matters This episode explores the state of American journalism with Ted Czech, a former newspaper reporter and author of Saving the Beast. Czech critiques the decline of objective reporting, attributing it to sensationalism, ideological bias, and personality-driven news. He advocates for a return to balanced, fact-based journalism. Key takeaways: Journalism must separate fact from opinion to maintain credibility. Media polarization feeds public echo chambers. Restoring trust will require structural and cultural change.

In this episode, Cindy Esliger examines the fine line between honesty and encouragement when offering advice. While we don't want to ignore challenges or sugarcoat reality for others, we also shouldn't crush their dreams prematurely by offering too much realism that comes across as pessimism. How do we encourage others while still offering constructive insights to help refine their path? Cindy offers a way forward through reframing the conversation in curiosity and empowering others to see potential instead of doubt. When we reflect on our experiences and offer advice like “don't get your hopes up” or “it's harder than it looks” we may think we're protecting someone from disappointment by being realistic. In reality, however, we're letting our own insecurities or cultural conditioning towards skepticism deflate their confidence. Cindy offers three reasons why telling people their dreams won't work is a waste of energy: 1) They'll figure it out for themselves, 2) We might be wrong, and 3) We're robbing them of growth. Cindy differentiates honesty from negativity and reframes our advice-giving with curiosity instead of cold realism. She suggests a line of questions about why they're excited or how they'll approach challenges. There are ways to be honest without crushing dreams. Cindy shares four strategies for how to answer honestly while also making it easier to take in: 1) Validate first, prepare later, 2) Frame feedback constructively, 3) Encourage self-reflection, and 4) Resist the urge to over-prepare them. Fostering possibility is good for everyone.  Resources discussed in this episode:Guide to Empowering PossibilitiesAstronomic AudioConfidence Collective—Contact Cindy Esliger Career Confidence Coaching: website | instagram | facebook | linkedin | email

Send us a textHappiness is a moxie job! To kick off the 4th Moxie season, Mary O'Neill, co-creator and co-host of Main Street Moxie, explores the connection between happiness and moxie. Happiness is a topic on which Mary is well-versed. She has immersed herself in the topic through the lens of multiple disciplines, and it underpins her work as an educator and life design and career coach. For Mary, rainbows and unicorns do not signify a happy life. Instead, she draws on the Ancient Greek philosophy's emphasis on living a life of virtue and values. A happy life is one lived in alignment with qualities such as courage, moderation, honesty, humility, integrity, and, most crucially, practical wisdom, which involves knowing how and when to apply various virtues in the situations we encounter.This kind of life might not always be Insta-worthy, but it will lead to one of authenticity and coherence, which will buoy us in times of struggle and adversity.Viewing happiness in this way makes it less dependent on feelings and more rooted in action, doing, and MOXIE!In addition to being the co-founder and co-host of Main Street Moxie, Mary is a seasoned and award-winning educator, lecturer, and trainer. She has taught classes in philosophy, including an interdisciplinary course she created on happiness. She has also taught classes in sustainability and nature, global business, life design, career success, and college first-year studies at Western Connecticut State University. Currently, she serves as the Director of Life Design at Boston Global Communications and Performance, Inc., and as the Career Services Coordinator at CT State: Northwestern.

Today's episode is with someone who is a client of our digital marketing agency, and has been since October. And the way that it all came about was the perfect storm of personal branding gone right. Nearly a year prior I added him on Facebook, and I didn't cold DM or pitch him ever. I simply said if he ever needed help with digital marketing to let me know. He reached out, and we had a conversation. It started with Facebook Ads, and then SEO after that. It's been really cool getting the opportunity to work with him and his company over the last 6 months. We talk often about business and share strategies back and forth. My guest today is Dylan Nicholson.

In this episode, Cindy Esliger talks about the social window, the fleeting time that occurs during the first few weeks in a new environment, when people are more open to connection and bonding. The social window won't last forever, so it's important to take advantage of it to build relationships, establish influence, and form a supportive network. What is the best way to use the social window to our career advantage, and what should we expect while trying? Cindy explains the process.The social window offers the easiest time for us to engage in networking. There is a fleeting openness in it that creates a low-stakes environment for relationship building. Cindy shares five ways to make the most of the opportunity: 1) Be proactive, not passive, 2) Join group activities, 3) Leverage shared hardships, 4) Focus on quality over quantity, and 5) Follow up. Cindy discusses being intentional about the social window by deciding what we want to accomplish and forming a plan. Having goals will help prioritize our efforts when meeting new people. She suggests reframing our perspective to see introductions as a career investment instead of as a series of awkward moments. If we don't take advantage of this time, real consequences can follow. Cindy identifies three of the most common: 1) Feeling out of place, 2) Missed career opportunities, and 3) Undermined confidence.  Resources discussed in this episode:Guide to Building Connections That LastAstronomic AudioConfidence Collective—Contact Cindy Esliger Career Confidence Coaching: website | instagram | facebook | linkedin | email

Today I'm joined by someone that I met over 3 years ago. We connected on LinkedIn and ended up grabbing coffee a few different times. He & I talked a lot about life and business and realized we knew a lot of the same people. St. Louis is a small town at the core where everyone knows everyone. One of the times we met, he had been telling me about a new idea for a business venture that he and his business partner had. It ended up coming to life about a year and a half ago, so it's pretty cool to see this come full circle. My guest today is Clint Overton. He is a Founder & Managing Partner at Boardroom Bullpen & Co-Founder/Partner/COO at Mercury CRM Solutions.Clint's Bio:Professional Services Firm Founder. Executive Operator. Mentor.

In this episode of The Career Flipper podcast, host Jenny Dempsey sits down with Alex Ferro of Winston-Salem, North Carolina. He opens up about his career shift from corporate banking to real estate — and the personal journey that led him there. After his dad passed, Alex started questioning what success really meant to him. He realized that climbing the corporate ladder wasn't cutting it anymore — he wanted more freedom, more purpose, and a better balance in life.Alex shares how he navigated the leap into real estate, balancing gut instincts with smart, calculated decisions. He talks about the systems he put in place to stay grounded and how he learned to redefine success beyond just making money. This episode dives into the ups and downs of career transitions — the moments of doubt, the unexpected wins, and the resilience it takes to keep going.If you've ever thought about leaving behind a “stable” job to chase something more meaningful, this one's for you. Alex's story is a reminder that success isn't always about the paycheck — it's about building a life that feels right.Episode TakeawaysSwitching careers can be a real emotional rollercoaster.We've all been there, stuck in a job that just doesn't light us up.Going through personal loss can really shake up how we view our careers and what success means to us.It's crucial to learn from both the wins and the slip-ups along the way.Having a solid plan and system in place can really help you get that work-life balance we all crave.It's all about finding that sweet spot between being spontaneous and making smart choices when it comes to investing.Success isn't just about the money; it's also about feeling fulfilled and happy with what you do.Having the freedom to make lifestyle choices can make a huge difference in how satisfied you feel with your career.Don't be afraid to take risks and shake things up if it means following your passions.Sharing personal stories can really inspire others to make bold career moves and chase their dreams.Connect with AlexFerro Home Buyers: https://www.ferrohomebuyers.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ferrohomebuyers/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Ferrohomebuyers/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/ferrohomebuyers/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCEs1Tsbo3gcC_HdvLkmUxIQ Thanks for listening to The Career Flipper!If you enjoyed this episode, let's spread the word!
