In this episode, Cindy Esliger asks ‘What if work could actually be fun?' She's talking about finding room satisfaction, creativity, and fun in our careers instead of simply viewing work as an endless, stressful grind keeping us from the weekend. When we make work more enjoyable and better suited to us, we reduce our stress, protect our spark, and perform better as well. It may sound like a radical mindset shift, but Cindy walks us through exactly how to approach it.   If all we're doing at work each week is just trying to make it to Friday, or to retirement, we're basically postponing our lives. There's more to work than just surviving it. There is room for joy to help offset the stress we're under. Cindy describes exactly what stress does to our body, a physical stress response, and our feelings, an emotional stress response, and then offers us four ways to interrupt the stress spiral before it takes over: 1. Close our eyes and reopen them slowly, 2. Yawn on purpose, 3. Move our bodies, and 4. Label what's happening. There are a hundred little ways to inject personal satisfaction or creativity into our tasks at work. Where can we find moments of joy? Cindy shares three tiny joy experiments to test what brings more lightness to our day: 1. Work with people we like, 2. Tweak a task to reflect our creativity or skills, and 3. Insert our perspective into a process. We need to find ways to better manage our stress and resent our jobs less. Cindy assures us that we are allowed to find our spark again and inject it into our careers; in fact, we should.Resources discussed in this episode:Guide to Reigniting Your SparkAstronomic AudioConfidence Collective—Contact Cindy Esliger Career Confidence Coaching: website | instagram | facebook | linkedin | email Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

On this episode of Find Your Dream Job, career coach Kacie Bail explains how to turn an interview into a genuine conversation that builds trust and connection with your interviewer. She shares three practical steps: listen intently, identify conversation threads, and engage naturally with what your interviewer says. By focusing on curiosity and connection, you can show that you're not only qualified but also someone they'll enjoy working with. Kacie also offers simple ways to signal understanding, ask meaningful follow-up questions, and use nonverbal cues like nodding and smiling to build rapport. You'll learn how to adapt these techniques for both casual and highly structured interviews — and why the goal isn't perfection, but authenticity. As Kacie reminds us, interviewers may forget your exact answers, but they'll always remember how you made them feel.

In this episode, Cindy Esliger addresses what she calls ‘work albatrosses', the hidden burdens that steal our time and focus and derail our long-term goals. It's tempting to always say yes, but the more we do, the more we become an albatross. She explores how to identify the early warning signs and subtle red flags that show up before the burdens become our problems. She identifies what an energy vampire looks like and shines a light on how to avoid the work albatross, protect our energy, and realign our work with what actually fuels us.   We often take on these work albatrosses out of a sense of obligation, guilt, or fear. While they're presented as a way to demonstrate our leadership, instead, they're more like career quicksand. Cindy cautions us that in order to bring clarity to chaos, we need to get brutally honest about what's actually on our plate and what shouldn't be. What does an albatross feel like? That project that makes our anxiety surge and causes success to feel like punishment, all while siphoning off our best energy and attention. Cindy identifies four common warning signs when it comes to identifying an albatross: 1. Lack of clear ownership, 2. Avoidant behavior from others, 3. We're the only ones excited, or not, and 4. A vague sense of dread. In order to set a boundary and renegotiate our role in these situations, difficult conversations may be required. Cindy offers four tips for having a respectful conversation: 1. Get right to the point, 2. Clearly state the desired outcome, 3. Mind our tone, and 4. Keep it clear. We can control how much chaos we internalize and what burdens we shoulder. Cindy guides us through navigating overwhelm and protecting our energy at work.Resources discussed in this episode:Guide to Lightening the LoadAstronomic AudioConfidence Collective—Contact Cindy Esliger Career Confidence Coaching: website | instagram | facebook | linkedin | email Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In this episode, Cindy Esliger challenges the mindset that the need to rest, recharge, and reset is an indulgence: it is a necessity. Constant burnout and chronic stress are not normal. We can't sustain staying in survival mode forever. So how do we recognize the signs of being on the brink of a crash? How do we break the burnout cycle? Cindy defines what we should feel like when rested and explains how to stop seeing exhaustion as a badge of honor. It's time to abandon chronic stress for a healthy reset.  Rest and reset, as defined by Cindy, is not just booking a beach vacation. It's about resetting our nervous system so we're not constantly running on fumes. And it means viewing rest not as something earned after being productive, but as a necessary function of success. She outlines three common triggers that keep us locked in survival mode: 1. Scarcity of recognition, 2. Unequal workloads, and 3. The ‘do more with less' culture.Cindy identifies five common warning signs of being forever on the brink of burnout: 1. Constant exhaustion, 2. Everything feels overwhelming 3. Emotional reactivity, 4. Joy feels like a distant concept, and 5. Forgetfulness and brain fog. Why do all those things feel normal in our lives right now? They're not. Rest is not a reward for productivity; it's a biological necessity. Cindy asks us to identify the kind of rest we need: 1. Physical rest, 2. Emotional rest, 3. Creative rest, 4. Social rest, or 5. Sensory rest. When we can identify that, we can follow her guide to restoration and reset.Resources discussed in this episode:Guide to Pressing PauseAstronomic AudioConfidence Collective—Contact Cindy Esliger Career Confidence Coaching: website | instagram | facebook | linkedin | email Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In this episode, Cindy Esliger explores identity, not the curated professional version of ourselves, but the real and evolving true version of ourselves. We often get shaped by outdated assumptions and everything we've been praised for or paid to do, and we end up losing sight of what we actually want and who we genuinely want to become. Self-awareness is something we give lip service to but require more of to assess where we are in our careers.. Cindy offers advice on how to get curious about ourselves and realign our goals to match our values and authentic selves.  Identity is not a job title or role. That's the curated professional identity we're told to maintain for success. But who are we underneath that polish? What are our motivations, tendencies, and personality traits? Knowing who we truly are allows us to make career decisions from a place of clarity. Cindy assures us that transition is allowed to be uncomfortable. We don't need a fully developed five-year plan, just a curiosity about our true identities.Growth involves discomfort, and identity shifts don't come with an instruction manual. That's fine, we're allowed to evolve and change direction. Cindy explains the three levers of career decisions, which are maximizing income, maximizing impact, and maximizing flexibility. We're all aiming to pull the levers, but we can rarely pull all three at the same time. And that's fine. Cindy points out that we're all works in progress, requiring self-awareness to become who we want to be.Resources discussed in this episode:Guide to Becoming Who You Are Meant to BeAstronomic AudioConfidence Collective—Contact Cindy Esliger Career Confidence Coaching: website | instagram | facebook | linkedin | email Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In this episode, Cindy Esliger discusses how workplace drama casts us in the role of victim, villain, or rescuer. Sometimes we stick to one role, but usually we bounce between all three. We tend to think other people are guilty of being a victim or a villain or even a rescuer, but at one point or another, we're all in one of the roles. Cindy examines how the roles show up and what we can do to change the patterns that lead us to play roles at all.  At the core of each role is a basic truth. The victim usually feels overlooked, the villain often paints other people as being the problem, and the rescuer likes control and reinforces the victim's helplessness while calling the villain irredeemable. The trio of roles tends to self-reinforce, and we get caught in a triangle of drama. Cindy names self-awareness as the first step in breaking free before she details other steps we can take to stop the trio.Each role allows us to receive certain perks that help reinforce our place in it. What's the price we're paying for these hidden payoffs, though? Cindy points out that we can step out of any of the roles at any time. Ask ourselves what role we're in. Then ask what we're really looking for that the role appears to give us. Cindy guides us through how to empower ourselves outside of each role so we can leave the stress of the drama triangle behind.Resources discussed in this episode:Guide to Stop Playing the Victim, Villain, or Rescuer at WorkAstronomic AudioConfidence Collective—Contact Cindy Esliger Career Confidence Coaching: website | instagram | facebook | linkedin | email Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

We were taught not to say certain things aloud, so often this little phrase gets used as a passive-aggressive dig or expression of envy. Cindy lays out all the things really being said when people say “It must be nice”, from discomfort to unmet needs to jealousy, and offers advice on how to deal with hearing it and saying it. It's time to learn more honest, respectful ways of communicating with each other. The four little words “It must be nice” can convey a lot of hidden messages. Cindy details eight possible meanings that could be inferred from the phrase: 1. Masked envy, 2. Suppressed resentment or perceived unfairness, 3. Unspoken guilt or shame, 4. Fear of hope or disappointment, 5. Policing joy or success, 6. Social comparison and status signaling, 7. Emotional distancing or conversational filler, and 8. A subtle invitation to show someone what's possible. How we respond to any of these intentions will set the tone of the interaction.We don't just hear those words, though. We also say them. “It must be nice.” What do we mean by that? Cindy offers four honest assessments of what might really be underneath the words: 1. It's a defense mechanism, 2. It's a coping mechanism, 3. It's a cry for acknowledgement, or 4. It's a way to express pain without vulnerability. Once we can identify what we really mean, we can use Cindy's guide to self-assessment and how to reframe our communication into something more useful and open.  Resources discussed in this episode:Guide to Going Deeper with the Underlying MeaningAstronomic AudioConfidence Collective—Contact Cindy Esliger Career Confidence Coaching: website | instagram | facebook | linkedin | email Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In this episode, Cindy Esliger explores how we can dare to be more at work and avoid slipping into the conformity we think is expected. We're conditioned to believe we need to keep our heads down, fit in, and work longer and harder than anyone else in order to succeed. But we were hired because of something unique that we brought to the company. Cindy dives into how we can reclaim the parts of ourselves that we've been hiding for a more authentic and rewarding work experience. Constant hustle and overachieving without acknowledgement doesn't always lead to feeling more fulfilled. Especially not if we're stifling our creativity and actual personality in order to do so. Instead of blending in so we appear more palatable, Cindy encourages us to start daring to be more with small steps. Perhaps we say what we're actually thinking or the ideas we truly have in a meeting. Perhaps we use our natural humor to liven things up when people's attention is waning. Start small. And keep going.Work can still feel energizing and challenging the way it did in the beginning if we don't allow ourselves to be dulled by performative norms and the exhausting pressure to be proper and polished at all costs. We do it to belong, but Cindy suggests that belonging isn't blending in. Belonging is about being seen as who we are and still being accepted. She shares advice on reframing how we show up at work and offers small steps we can take to facilitate our journey towards daring to be more.Resources discussed in this episode:Guide to Daring to be More at WorkAstronomic AudioConfidence Collective—Contact Cindy Esliger Career Confidence Coaching: website | instagram | facebook | linkedin | email Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In this episode, Cindy Esliger talks about hope. Hope is complicated. It keeps us going, but it can also sometimes feel dangerous. Hope spurs us onward when we meet resistance, but it also opens the door to disappointment, so we learn not to expect too much. Cindy counters this by asking what if hope isn't some fragile emotion that leaves us vulnerable, but instead is a fierce and necessary force that drives us to act with clarity? She examines how to embrace hope not as a risk but as a strategy, and offers us tips on how to make hope work for us.Feeling hopeful can feel risky when we are frequently denied what we want. But giving up hope feels even worse. Daring to hope says that we believe there's more out there and that we're going to find it. It's not naive, it's grounded in action. Cindy describes how we can maintain an open mind about what might be attainable, and why we need to stop confusing passive wishing with purposeful hope. The psychological force called negativity bias was once a survival skill, but now it just keeps us focused on what's wrong. Cindy talks about how to combat that. The good news is we can retrain our brains. Cindy offers three simple questions for us to answer nightly that will help us break away from fear and worst-case scenarios. 1. What is one good thing we can appreciate about today? 2. What are we hopeful about for tomorrow or the future? And 3. What inner strength did we demonstrate today? Cindy emphasizes that it's okay to want more than what we currently have and shows us how hope allows us to advocate for ourselves with confidence.Resources discussed in this episode:Guide to Tracking Your Hopes For The FutureAstronomic AudioConfidence Collective—Contact Cindy Esliger Career Confidence Coaching: website | instagram | facebook | linkedin | email Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In this episode, Cindy Esliger looks at a better way we can choose to respond when things go wrong. We tend to spin out in overthinking or tighten our grip on control when setbacks happen at work, but neither of those responses leads to meaningful progress. Cindy suggests focusing on what's actually within our control by reclaiming our power. It's not about pretending everything is fine; it's about learning to move forward with clarity by reframing setbacks as opportunities for growth. How we respond to setbacks can reinforce our frustration and self-doubt if we allow ourselves to overthink on overdrive or slip into control freak mode. But when things start falling apart, we need to ask what is actually within our control. Reframing our thinking involves understanding positional power and personal power. Cindy explains that positional power is the power that our workplace controls. It can evaporate. Personal power, on the other hand, comes from within and doesn't require anyone else's permission. Personal power allows us to respond thoughtfully instead of with a knee-jerk reaction. Cindy offers insight into the psychology of control, specifically the locus of control, which is the belief system that shapes whether we think life happens to us or because of us. High internal locus of control believe our actions shape outcomes, whereas high external locus of control believes in forces like luck or fate. Both extreme ends of the spectrum can be harmful. To find balance, Cindy offers three questions to ask ourselves the next time something goes wrong: 1. Do we blame ourselves or others first? 2. Do we believe success is based on effort, relationships, or luck? And 3. When someone else is struggling, do we think that could be us or that it would never happen to us? Cindy guides us through what the answers to those questions mean and how to reframe our thinking about setbacks. Resources discussed in this episode:Guide to Reclaiming Your Power When Everything Feels Out of ControlAstronomic AudioConfidence Collective—Contact Cindy Esliger Career Confidence Coaching: website | instagram | facebook | linkedin | email Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
