In this episode of OFFBounds, Paula Macaggi sits down with retail leader, five-time Top Retail Expert, NRF Top Voice, and Retail Women in Tech founder Shannon Flanagan to discuss the launch of her new book, Choose, Don't Chase Your Career. After being laid off four times between 2016 and 2024, Shannon shares how those experiences forced her to rethink success, identity, and the stories we tell ourselves about work. Together, they explore why career transitions are about far more than finding the next job—they're opportunities to redefine who we are and what truly matters.The conversation dives into fear, comparison, burnout, financial insecurity, and the courage to pause instead of rushing into the next opportunity. Shannon explains why the traditional definition of success is no longer enough, how to recognize the "scripts" that shape our decisions, and why choosing purpose over chasing titles can lead to a more meaningful career and life. Whether you're navigating a layoff, considering a career change, or simply questioning what success looks like, this episode offers practical wisdom and an honest reminder that sometimes the greatest transformation happens in the space between chapters.You can buy Shannon's book here!

In this episode, recorded live at FEI's Financial Leaders Forum in San Antonio, host Heather Cole sits down with Chrissy O'Hara, CFO of SoftLedger, to talk about the real tradeoffs of entrepreneurial freedom: cash flow stress, family members who keep asking when the “real job” is coming, and the discipline it takes to keep pivoting when plans change. O'Hara also shares how she learned to let go of the perfectionism her CPA training instilled, how she and her team use AI tools like Claude and ChatGPT day to day, and why she believes more finance and accounting professionals need to step into entrepreneurship and be in the room shaping the next generation of tools, rather than waiting for someone else to make those decisions for them.Special Guest: Chrissy O'Hara.

Love Your Career Podcast? Let us know!Most people don't expect a career crisis. Redundancy, restructuring, a change in leadership or the sudden realisation that your contribution is being overlooked can happen with very little warning. And when it does, important career decisions often need to be made at the worst possible time.In episode 283 of Your Career Podcast, I explain why proactive career planning matters and how giving regular attention to your career can help you avoid making rushed decisions under pressure.I share a personal story from my years in Singapore, when I arrived at the airport with my two-year-old daughter and discovered that my Australian passport had expired. What followed was a stressful race against time and a difficult arrival in Australia using my British passport without the correct visa.It was a powerful lesson in what happens when something important, but not urgent, is left unattended for too long.The Urgent Important MatrixI introduce the Urgent Important Matrix, a practical framework made famous by Stephen Covey in The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People and associated with former US President Dwight D. Eisenhower.The matrix helps you separate tasks into four areas:urgent and importantimportant but not urgenturgent but not importantneither urgent nor importantCareer planning usually sits in the important but not urgent category.That is precisely why it is so easy to postpone.Your career does not send you a reminder when your industry is changing, your role is becoming vulnerable or your professional network is growing cold. By the time career planning feels urgent, you may already be facing redundancy, burnout or an unexpected career transition.What proactive career planning includesI discuss the career work that is best completed before you urgently need it:understanding and articulating your professional valuegaining clarity about the direction you want your career to takekeeping your resume, LinkedIn profile and other career assets currentmaintaining relationships and nurturing your professional networkreflecting on your achievements, skills and changing prioritiespreparing for career change before circumstances force the decisionProfessionals who manage redundancy or career change well are not necessarily luckier than everyone else. Often, they have already invested time in understanding who they are, what they offer and what they want next.This preparation gives them greater confidence, perspective and choice.A restructure may still be unsettling, but it is less likely to feel like a personal verdict when you already understand the value you bring.Take control before your career becomes urgentYou do not need to wait for a crisis to pay attention to your career.By setting aside time for the important but non-urgent work now, you can make better decisions later, strengthen your professional confidence and respond more effectively when change arrives.What have you done to proactively manage your career before redundancy looms?- - - - - - - -Welcome to Your Career Podcast with Jane Jackson where I help mid career professionals overcome self doubt and gain career clarity and the confidence to create the life and career they desire. Book a Zoom chat with me at janejacksoncoach.com - I'd love to meet you and discover what's happening in your career!

FELICIA CHANG- Fit Model Pro; How Can I Make this Sustainable?, Musical Theater to Bodybuilding, Loving Support Today's guest is one of the newest IFBB Fit Model Pros, and her story is such a great reminder that sometimes one random moment can completely change the direction of your life. As a college student majoring in musical theatre, she wasn't even sure what path she wanted to take. Then one day, while scrolling Instagram with her roommate, she stumbled across bodybuilding—and thought, "I want to do that." What started as curiosity quickly became a passion that transformed her discipline, confidence, community, and ultimately her career. She went on to earn her IFBB Pro card by winning the overall at NPC JR USAs before making her professional debut at the St. Pete Pro. Today we're talking about finding your passion unexpectedly, learning through both victories and setbacks, and why this most recent prep has felt so different from her very first one. Welcome to the show, Felicia Chang   Felicia's Personal Journey Felicia, one of the newest IFBB fit model pros, shared her journey from studying musical theater to discovering bodybuilding through Instagram, which led to her earning an IFBB Pro Card and winning the overall at the NPC USA Championships before making her Pro debut at the St. Pete Pro. The discussion focused on how a random moment changed Felicia's career direction and would explore themes of finding passion unexpectedly, learning from victories and setbacks, and why her most recent preparation was different. Bikini to Fit Model Transition Celeste interviewed Felicia Chang about her transition from bikini competitor to fit model. Felicia shared that after placing fifth in her first bikini show, she took a break and later successfully transitioned to fit model, where she found the expectations more manageable as it's a new division. Felicia explained that her coach initially thought she was too muscular for fit model but later confirmed she could compete in the division after a successful show in April. Bodybuilding Prep Experience Comparison Felicia discussed her experience comparing her first prep to her current prep, noting that her first prep was much more challenging as she had no prior training or knowledge about cutting. She explained that her current prep has been easier due to her increased knowledge and better understanding of how to train and maintain a deficit. Felicia also mentioned that her initial weight loss in February was achieved through a less structured approach, which helped set her up for success in her current prep. Bodybuilding Perceptions and Experiences Celeste and Felicia discussed Felicia's initial perceptions of bodybuilding and how they changed after seeing a post about Laura Lee. Felicia explained that she previously thought bodybuilding involved getting as big as possible without knowing about different divisions, but the post showed her a more elegant and beautiful version of the sport. They also discussed how Felicia's stage experience from musical theater may have helped her overcome stage fright in bodybuilding competitions. Career Transition to Bodybuilding Felicia discussed how her transition from musical theater to bodybuilding transformed her daily routine and sense of purpose. She explained that while she had been passionate about musical theater since childhood, attending a conservatory program at Carnegie Mellon made her realize it wasn't the right fit for her long-term career goals. After switching to a liberal arts program, Felicia found that her interest in pursuing musical theater professionally had diminished, leading her to discover bodybuilding as a new passion that consumed her attention and time, requiring an early morning schedule of 4 AM wake-ups and gym sessions. Bodybuilding and Life Balance Discussion Celeste and Felicia discussed Felicia's background in dance, particularly hip hop and musical theater, including her experience performing as Belle in Beauty and the Beast. Felicia shared how her approach to bodybuilding has evolved, moving from a highly meticulous first prep to a more intuitive and sustainable lifestyle that allows her to maintain better quality of life and enjoy activities like traveling with family. Both participants agreed on the importance of maintaining balance between competition goals and life experiences, with Celeste sharing her own experience of having a successful prep while getting married and traveling. Sustainable Fitness and Coaching Strategies Celeste and Felicia discussed sustainable fitness approaches and coaching strategies, with Felicia sharing how she helps clients maintain flexibility while traveling by encouraging estimated portion control and allowing treats rather than strict perfection. Felicia described her own competitive experience, noting she placed overall at Junior USA's but received feedback at St. Petersburg about being too bubbly and muscular in her posing, which she is now addressing by adjusting her approach for upcoming competitions. Competitive Posing Technique Adjustments Felicia discussed her adjustments to her physique and posing technique following feedback from the St. Petersburg competition, where she did not place as expected. She has lost about two pounds since the event and is refining her front and back poses to appear leaner and less glute-dominant, with positive feedback from her coach on a new front pose she practiced with Liz Trampas. Despite initial disappointment, Felicia recognized her strong physical presentation and is committed to making improvements for future competitions. Vancouver Show Prep Updates Felicia discussed her upcoming show in Vancouver in July and mentioned she's working with her coach on macros to come in slightly leaner. She shared how moving to Las Vegas in January has significantly improved her fitness journey by surrounding herself with a supportive bodybuilding community at Cult Fitness, where she trains alongside other competitors like Ashley Kay. Felicia noted that her husband has been very supportive, attending her shows and eating a similar diet, while also observing that she has developed better mental resilience during this prep compared to her previous competition. Bodybuilding Competition Success Story Felicia discussed her recent success in winning a pro card at a bodybuilding competition, describing the shock and joy of the moment. She shared how her supportive family, particularly her parents, have been instrumental in her bodybuilding journey, even attending shows and following her progress closely. Felicia expressed gratitude for the Colt Fitness community and offered advice to aspiring competitors, emphasizing the importance of hard work and maintaining a positive mindset regardless of results.   CONNECT WITH FELICIA: Websites: https://linktr.ee/feliciadabeast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/feliciathebeast/ CONNECT WITH CELESTE: Website:http://www.celestial.fit Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/celestial_fit/ All Links:http://www.celestial.fit/links.html

Send us Fan MailWhy do so many teachers get sick the minute summer break starts? In this episode of Teachers in Transition, Vanessa Jackson explores the “teacher flu,” summer burnout recovery, the reality of unpaid summer labor, and practical ways educators can use AI in a job search without expecting it to do the whole transition for them.*** Raise your hand if you have ever made it to summer break, winter break, spring break, or any long weekend and then immediately gotten sick.In this episode of Teachers in Transition, Vanessa Jackson introduces The Department of Consequences — the moment when your body, mind, or life finally says, “We need to discuss the last nine months.”This episode looks at why teachers often crash when the pressure drops, why summer is not always the relaxing “perk” people imagine, and how to give summer enough structure without turning it into another unpaid job.

It cannot and should never replace your judgment, your strategy, or your follow-through.Key TakeawaySurvival mode can get you through a school year, but it is not supposed to become your permanent address.This summer, tell the truth about what kind of season you are actually in: rest, recovery, financial pressure, medical catch-up, career exploration, or some messy combination platter with a side of laundry.Name it accurately, because clarity is kinder than self-judgment.Resources and Links MentionedSchedule a free Discovery Session with Vanessa: https://teachersintransition.com/calendarFind more resources and podcast episodes: https://teachersintransition.comSupport the podcast directly: https://www.buzzsprout.com/277608/supportListen on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/teachers-in-transition-career-change-and-real-talk/id1460021639Listen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3PF02FAZ1zzexvHBqqS6B8Overboard “Annie is Catatonic” clip mentioned in the episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NpzigSg-YkISEO Keywordsteacher burnout, teacher flu, teacher stress, teacher summer break, summer burnout recovery, teacher career transition, leaving teaching, teachers leaving the classroom, career change for teachers, job search for teachers, AI job search, AI resume help, teacher resume tips, teacher LinkedIn tips, transferable skills for teachers, educator burnout, teacher recovery, teacher summer planning, burnout recovery for educators, Teachers in Transition, Vanessa Jackson  Support the PodcastIf you enjoy this indie podcast and want to help with the behind-the-curtain work, please consider:sharing the episode with a teacher friendleaving a review on Apple Podcasts or Spotifysupporting the show financially starting at just $3/month Support Teachers in Transition  Connect with Vanessa Jackson

In this episode: lifestyle creep awareness, emergency funds, rebuilding after a house fire, designing a values-aligned life, career transition coaching with Karen WorthyEpisode SummaryKaren Worthy shares how a wake-up call about spending led their family into FI habits—then a devastating house fire became a “blank slate” that clarified what matters.

Love Your Career Podcast? Let us know!Career Reinvention, Retirement and Building a Richer Life with Hannah MartinWhat does it really mean to prepare for retirement? For many women, especially mid-career professionals, retirement planning is often reduced to one question: “Will I have enough money?” Yet, as Hannah Martin explains in this thoughtful conversation, a fulfilling later life requires more than financial security. It also calls for purpose, community, health, independence and a clear sense of what comes next.In episode 282 of Your Career Podcast, Jane Jackson reconnects with Hannah Martin, founder of Talented Ladies Club and Rich Retiree, seven years after their last conversation. Hannah and I chatted in episodes 19 and 101. Hannah shares how her work supporting ambitious mothers returning to the workforce evolved into a new mission: helping women prepare for retirement in a way that is practical, empowering and deeply human.Jane and Hannah discuss the unique career and financial challenges many women face, including career breaks, lower pension or superannuation balances, caring responsibilities, and the implications of, unfortunately, a divorce. Confidence dips after time out of the workforce, and the long-term impact of the gender pay gap.They also explore why career reinvention does not stop at midlife. Whether you are facing redundancy, considering a career change, preparing for retirement, or wondering how to create more meaning in your next chapter, this conversation offers a reassuring reminder that it is never too late to make considered, confident choices.In this episode, we discuss:Why retirement planning must go beyond moneyThe four pillars of a rich retirement: finance, health, community and purposeHow career breaks can affect confidence, savings and long-term financial independenceWhy women often face different retirement challenges from menThe importance of community, contribution and meaningful activity as we ageHow mid-career professionals can begin planning their next chapter before they are forced toWhy career clarity matters at every stage of lifeHow cultural attitudes towards ageing can affect confidence, wellbeing and possibilityThe value of wisdom, lived experience and intergenerational connectionKey takeawayA rich retirement is not only about what you have saved. It is also about the life you are building.For mid-career professionals, this episode is a timely reminder to pause, reflect and ask: “What do I want the next chapter of my life and career to feel like?” Whether you are navigating redundancy, exploring a career change, rebuilding confidence, or preparing for a new stage of life, clarity is the first step towards making wise and grounded decisions.Resource mentioned:YouTube video when Jane visited Hannah in Worthing, UK - showing how genuine networking turns into genuine connections, taking the online connection offline to meet in person.  Watch here: https://youtu.be/hN_dAzQ30uo?si=PxSphzC7KI_psFsE About Hannah MartinHannah Martin is the founder of Talented Ladies Club, created in 2013 to support ambitious mothers returning to work and building careers or businesses that fit their lives.

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of Teachers in Transition, Vanessa explores how the books we loved when we were young helped shape what we notice, value, question, and carry into adulthood AND how our own stories  can help us write a better resume.From Erma Bombeck and Agatha Christie's Miss Marple to Nancy Drew, The Boxcar Children, Harry Potter, Percy Jackson, The Hunger Games, Divergent, and more, this episode looks at the “childhood bookshelf” as more than nostalgia. Those early stories may have taught us how to solve problems, recognize patterns, seek belonging, survive broken systems, resist being reduced to one role, and remember who we were before burnout took over.Vanessa also talks about reading with children and teens, the difference between censorship and conversation, and why the books young people choose can give us clues about what they are trying to understand.In the Career Transition and Job Search segment, Vanessa moves into resume basics for teachers leaving the classroom. She explains why a modern resume is not your whole life story, why skills should be shown through evidence-rich bullet points instead of a disconnected skills section, and how teachers can begin turning real classroom stories into quantifiable resume accomplishments.You'll also hear about the “Everything Resume” — a master resume template that holds your stories, accomplishments, projects, leadership roles, certifications, data stories, communication wins, and more — so you have raw material ready when it is time to tailor a resume for a specific job posting.Episode highlights:Why childhood books may still hold clues about who we areHow Gen X, Millennial, and Gen Z reading experiences shaped different kinds of courageWhy “stories matter” does not mean censorship is the answerHow rereading old favorites can help reconnect us with ourselvesWhy teachers need targeted resumes, not one perfect resume for every jobHow to turn teaching stories into resume bullet pointsWhy quantifiable resume metrics matterWhat an Everything Resume is and why teachers should build oneHow SCOUT helps Vanessa's clients explore career direction and translate teaching experienceMentioned in this episode:Erma Bombeck — Aunt Erma's Cope Book and other humor collections Carolyn Keene — Nancy Drew series Franklin W.

Keep winning! Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Todd Kroupa A former firefighter turned top-producing real estate agent in Georgia. Todd explains his journey from a physically demanding fire department career to becoming a highly successful real estate broker, team leader, and luxury/equestrian property specialist. The conversation walks through: His transition from the fire service to real estate Opening and managing a 400‑agent office in Florida Relocating to Georgia and re-establishing his business How he advises both first-time homebuyers and experienced sellers Emotional decision-making in buying and selling Inspections, deal-breakers, and buyer/seller behavior Multi-generational housing trends post‑COVID Why real estate remains a wealth-building tool Advice for navigating neighborhoods, schools, and due diligence His eventual ranking as #1 single agent for Berkshire Hathaway in Georgia (2024–2025) Todd emphasizes integrity, long-term relationships, and guiding clients toward the right house — not just closing a deal. Purpose of the Interview The purpose of Todd Kroupa’s appearance is to: Share a motivational career-change story — moving from firefighter to top real estate agent. Educate listeners on the real estate process — including buying, selling, inspections, and market strategy. Give practical tips for first-time homebuyers, families, and multi-generational households. Promote best practices for choosing neighborhoods, navigating emotion in home buying, and avoiding pitfalls. Highlight Todd’s success and position him as a trusted resource for Georgia real estate clients. Key Takeaways 1. Career Transition & Motivation Todd became a firefighter in 1992, retired in 2014, and began real estate in 2002. Real estate appealed to him because it allowed him to continue helping people without the physical strain. He built and managed a 400-agent office before returning to working directly with clients — his true passion. 2. Balancing Firefighting and Real Estate He often worked both jobs full-time, with limited days off. Eventually, maintaining both became impossible: “I can’t do this anymore,” he told his wife. 3. Buyer Advice Buyers make decisions emotionally first, then logically. Within the first 3–5 minutes in a home, buyers often know if they like it. Lighting, paint color, home condition, and layout heavily influence emotional response. First-time buyers need extra guidance — like “teaching someone to drive for the first time.” 4. Seller Advice Selling isn’t just about market timing — presentation matters. Neutral paint colors and bright white lighting help increase buyer appeal. Every showing is won or lost in the first few minutes. 5. Inspections Matter — and Are Deal Breakers Top inspection walk‑aways: Mold Foundation issues Roof problemsTodd stresses that if a buyer is uncomfortable before closing, “you won’t be comfortable after you close.” 6. Emotion vs. Logic Many buyers get emotionally attached and ignore red flags. Todd’s rule: commissions should never drive decisions. 7. Multi-Generational Living Is Rising Driven by COVID, high child-care costs, rising home prices. Families are choosing: ADUs (Accessory Dwelling Units) “In-law suites” Larger family compounds 8. Real Estate as a Wealth Builder Unlike stock investments, real estate allows you to: Control, improve, alter, and live in the asset. Tax advantages like 1031 exchanges and mortgage deductions compound long-term value. 9. Don’t Buy the Most Expensive House in the Neighborhood Surrounding homes cap your resale value. You may have to wait years for nearby homes to “catch up.” 10. Neighborhood Due Diligence Realtors must avoid discrimination (Fair Housing Act). Buyers should: Visit neighborhoods at night and on weekends Speak with neighbors Review school ratings and county resources Notable Quotes (from the transcript) Career & Purpose “I love helping people. That’s why I became a fireman. Real estate was another way to help people.” “I wasn’t quite sure I wanted to manage long term… my heart was with clients.” Ethics & Commission “Commissions should never be above the people.” “If you’re focused on commissions, you need to pick a different industry.” Emotions in Home Buying “Buyers think they’re looking logically, but they’re looking emotionally first.” “Within the first 3–5 minutes, they already know if they like the home.” Inspections “If you’re not comfortable with the property now, you won’t be comfortable after you close.” Neighborhood Choice “Focus on the house, but look at the neighborhood — you can’t change your neighbors.” Wealth Building “With stocks you can’t control it, improve it, or live in it. With a home, you can.” Success & Determination “Someone told me when I moved to Georgia I wasn’t going to make it. Now I’m the number one salesperson in Georgia.” #SHMS #STRAW #BESTSupport the show: https://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this inspiring episode of The She Believed She Could™ Podcast, Allison sits down with entrepreneur, peak performance coach, and Relaunch creator Hilary DeCesare to explore what happens when life calls you into your next evolution.

A dead local meetup group attracted just 5 people to its first gathering at a brewery. Two years later, that same group draws 70+ attendees to structured educational sessions, with newcomers driving across multiple states to participate. The transformation reveals something most personal finance education gets fundamentally wrong. Introduction and St. Louis Group Overview [00:00:00] Jonathan and Brad welcome Kristen Knapp and Allen Hansen to discuss how the St. Louis ChooseFI group became one of the most thriving communities in the country. Rebooting a Dormant Community [00:08:30] Kristen shares how she transformed a dormant St. Louis group after attending Camp FI, starting with brewery meetups and evolving to structured case studies that dramatically increased engagement. The Genesis of FI 101 [00:15:45] The hosts discuss how new members needed basic FI education, leading to the creation of a structured FI 101 program that attracted 70+ attendees and continues to grow. Kristen's Journey to Part-Time Work [00:22:10] Kristen shares her 30-year broadcast meteorology career and how the FI community gave her the confidence to negotiate a part-time arrangement, creating space for her FI Friends Travel venture. Allen's Perspective on Giving Back [00:31:20] Allen discusses his motivation to help others after reaching FI himself, emphasizing that anyone can make mistakes and still succeed on the path to financial independence. Structuring FI 101 Content [00:38:00] The group breaks down the essential components of FI 101: defining financial independence, the shockingly simple math of early retirement, and the financial order of operations. The Importance of Your Why [00:45:30] Jonathan proposes that understanding your personal why for FI should be the foundation of any FI 101 program, making it more compelling than traditional personal finance education. Investment Fees and Opportunity Cost [00:52:15] Brad delivers a detailed breakdown of how investment fees can cost millions over a lifetime, using concrete examples to illustrate the importance of low-cost index funds like VTI. Action Items and Next Steps [01:05:40] Allen outlines the two critical action items for FI 101 attendees: tracking net worth and monitoring spending, while the group discusses cadence for ongoing educational sessions. Preview of FI 201 and Future Plans [01:12:00] The hosts wrap up by discussing plans for a second episode covering FI 201 content and how local groups can iterate and improve their educational programming. Notable Quotes "I created what I wished existed. Nobody else is going to do it. Why not me?" — Kristen Knapp "After fifteen years of marriage, we finally hit broke. I think that resonates with people. We did it all wrong with credit card debt, you name it." — Allen Hansen "You can't save your way to FI. It's just almost impossible. You have to invest those dollars." — Allen Hansen "FI is not this passive endeavor and FI is not just about the nuts and bolts of money. This is about a constantly evolving mental framework." — Brad Barrett "Being around other people on the same path is one hundred percent the reason I've been able to create this life, because I would have never even had the idea or the courage to do any of this." — Kristen Knapp Key Takeaways Your savings rate matters more than your income. Someone earning $50,000 and saving 50% will reach FI faster than someone earning $150,000 but saving only 10%. Investment fees compound negatively. A 1% advisor fee plus 1% fund fees can reduce a potential $7.2 million portfolio to just $3.9 million over 40 years. Your FI number is calculated by multiplying annual expenses by 25, based on the 4% safe withdrawal rule. Understanding your personal "why" for pursuing FI is more compelling than traditional budgeting advice and provides the motivation needed for long-term success. Community makes the difference. Local FI groups provide accountability, education, and the courage to make life-changing decis…

Have you ever stood in the middle of a life that looks really good on paper and still felt like something was off? Like a quiet voice whispering, this isn't it anymore...and you didn't know what to do with that? This week on the Found Podcast, I'm bringing you a conversation with my own coach, Katrina Klooster, and I think this one is going to land somewhere deep for a lot of you. Katrina is a life and leadership coach who specializes in helping high-achieving women navigate transitions, those in-between seasons when you've outgrown where you are but aren't sure where you're going. After nearly 15 years in education (as a high school Spanish teacher and instructional coach), Katrina followed her own winding, messy, non-linear path into building a coaching practice, and she brings all of that lived experience to the women she now serves. In this episode, we talk about: The moment Katrina knew she had outgrown teaching and why it took her so long to trust that feeling Burnout, shingles, and the culture of self-sacrifice we've normalized in education (and beyond) Why your non-linear path is not something to apologize for The 37-38-year-old awakening many women experience and what's actually happening beneath the surface How high-achieving women get stuck in golden handcuffs and what it takes to break free Why most women aren't afraid of failure...and what they're actually afraid of instead The grief that's woven into growth (and why we don't talk about it enough) What Katrina looks for in a coach and how to know if coaching is right for you Connect with Katrina: Website: katrinaklooster.com Instagram: @katrinaklooster (send her a DM!)

The conversation also explores practical ways to navigate career transitions with confidence, including staying curious, building strong relationships, and creating flexible career plans.

Send us Fan MailThis week on Teachers in Transition, Vanessa Jackson explores the warning signs teachers learn to ignore — in our bodies, our stress levels, and our careers.What started as a routine dental cleaning turned into an unexpected root canal… and a much bigger realization about burnout, chronic stress, and how educators become experts at functioning while damaged. Vanessa shares the surprising moment her Garmin stress watch revealed that her body had been “keeping score” long before she consciously realized something was wrong.Then in the Career Transition & Job Search segment, Vanessa tackles a major modern job-search question:Do resumes still matter in the age of AI?Short answer: Yes.  But differently.In this episode:Why resumes still matter in an AI-driven job market How Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) filter resumes Why tailoring your resume matters more than ever How to use AI strategically without sounding fake Why LinkedIn is better for networking than passive “Easy Apply” applications The powerful framework: “The job description is the question. Your resume is the answer.” This episode is part burnout conversation, part career strategy session, and part reminder that functioning is not the same thing as fine.Mentioned in This EpisodeTeachers in Transition Schedule a Discovery Call Find Your Bearings  Helpful Prompt: “Use this job description and tailor my master resume to meet this job description.

Careers in technology change as professionals move into their 40s and 50s. Early in a tech career, rapid change feels exciting. New tools, companies, and opportunities create momentum. Over time that same pace can begin to feel heavy. Many professionals start asking different questions. They wonder how long their skills will stay valuable, whether companies will continue to seek their experience, and what happens financially if their career path becomes less predictable. We explain that most of these concerns are not panic. Instead they reflect awareness of how quickly the tech industry evolves. People working in technology understand change better than most, because they help create it. Financial planning helps turn that uncertainty into flexibility. When finances are strong and organized, career changes become something to manage rather than something threatening. We start by discussing the importance of understanding real spending. Many people track their savings but have not translated those savings into the cost of living their current lifestyle. We talk about separating fixed expenses such as housing and insurance from flexible spending like travel and lifestyle upgrades. Once those numbers are clear, financial scenarios become possible. We can evaluate what happens if someone works until age 60, if income drops earlier, or if someone transitions into consulting or advisory work. We also explore how tech compensation often peaks earlier than in other industries. Many professionals reach their highest earning years in their late 30s or 40s. That means the window for building wealth is compressed. These years become critical for maximizing retirement contributions and building taxable investments. Without a plan, rising income can lead to rising expenses and long term financial commitments that reduce flexibility later. Equity compensation is another major topic. Stock grants, options, and employee stock purchase plans can become powerful wealth builders. However they also introduce concentration risk because income, career stability, and investments may all depend on the same company. Diversifying over time becomes an important part of reducing that risk. Yes, we also address the role of artificial intelligence in shaping tech careers. Historically, new technology changes work more than it eliminates it. Skills like judgment, leadership, and communication often become more valuable as automation increases. Financial planning therefore focuses on building resilience through strong savings, diversified investments, and liquidity that supports career transitions. Finally we discuss the emotional side of mid career decisions. Many professionals feel trapped by high salaries and demanding roles. With proper planning, people often discover they need less peak income than they assumed. Their investments may already support future goals. That realization can create options such as consulting, semi retirement, or less stressful roles. Financial planning ultimately helps people see the full picture and build flexibility for the many stages of life.

Confidence, clarity, and speaking when it matters.Confident communication isn't about being the loudest in the room. For Susie Wolff, it's about displaying assurance before you even open your mouth.Wolff is a former professional race car driver, managing director of F1 Academy, and author of Driven. Throughout her career in one of the world's most male-dominated industries, she's learned that confidence starts within. “If you want others to believe in you, you need to at least have confidence in your own abilities,” she says. By letting her capabilities speak for themselves, Wolff felt she didn't have to. “I was never the loudest voice in the room. But I made sure when I did speak that I really had something to say.”In this special episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, co-hosted by Matt Abrahams and Tiggy Valen, Wolff shares how inner drive creates outer clarity. From delivering hard truths with empathy to achieving buy-in for a bold vision, Wolff offers lessons on communicating with confidence, even in the face of stiff competition.Episode Reference Links:Susie WolffSusie's Book: DrivenTiggy ValenPaddock ProjectEp.235 Refine, Reframe, Repeat: Make Your Communication a Slam Dunk  Connect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedInChapters:(00:00) - Introduction (03:06) - Early Motorsport Passion (04:01) - Finding Your Voice (05:33) - Building Confidence (06:28) - Becoming a Leader (08:48) - Cross-Cultural Communication (09:57) - Building F1 Academy (14:20) - Giving Tough Feedback (17:32) - Embracing Discomfort (20:01) - The Final Three Questions (26:18) - Conclusion  ********Thank you to our sponsors.  These partnerships support the ongoing production of the podcast, allowing us to bring it to you at no cost.This episode is brought to you by Babbel.
