Teens these days are expected to have everything figured out by the time they finish high school–which is a nearly impossible task. Even though they're only taking their first wobbly steps into maturity, it seems like they've got to have their college major, future career and financial life plan all worked out by the time they turn 18!Needless to say, they're going to need a lot of help if they're going to make it out there in the real world. As parents, we want to assist our kids as they transition into adulthood–so how can we help teens start making smart career decisions when they're still living under our roofs? Is there a way we can prepare them to go into adult life with their best foot forward?That's what we're asking Tamara Raymond, author of Careering: The Pocket Guide to Exploring Your Future Career. Tamara is a certified leadership coach and career strategist with over 15 years of experience helping people become their best selves! Today, she's helping us see how teens can get a headstart on career development before they reach adulthood.In our interview, we're covering how teens can start  discovering their passions and how they can build a professional network with resources they already have! Plus, how parents can guide teens through job and internship applications–and help them handle rejection.

Have you found that full-time corporate life just doesn't work for you? Long hours, commutes, expectations that you will be available at all times when it really isn't convenient for you, stress. There can be many reasons why the rigidity of corporate jobs does not suit women. And when that happens you can feel like you have been effectively thrown on the scrapheap. You invested all that time and energy on building your career and suddenly it can feel like it counts for nothing.  This is the experience of many women when they have a baby. They will try to negotiate better terms and find that they get turned down, or that despite having been told they can ‘have it all', actually, work and family aren't as compatible as they had hoped. It's a harsh experience to go through.  And this needs to change. Women need to be able to build life on their own terms. In this week's podcast episode I am talking about why I am so fired up about this fight. My guest is Jane Johnson, the founder of Careering Into Motherhood. When she returned to her role as global director at a major bank she negotiated a job-share. She was the first person at her level to do so. This was successful but when she looked for the next step in her career, recruiters weren't interested in talking about flexible working.  Jane went on to found a highly successful recruitment business helping women to find senior roles that offered flexible working. She was inundated with candidates and could not meet demand, so rather than turn away women who wanted to work, she started the Careering into Motherhood community in 2019. It began as a Facebook group and membership has grown to more than 8,000 women.  Jane has run mentoring programmes for 60 women, online coaching programmes during lockdown, launched the award-winning Careering into Motherhood podcast, She was invited by 10 Downing Street to advise the Department For Business (BEIS) on flexible working. We talk about: Challenges women face about wanting to have a career and being around for their family How coaching is an enabler for building a life that works on our terms The importance of financial independence for women How women building businesses and negotiating better terms builds a more inclusive society Making workplaces less toxic for women Women being able to make choices that work for them   Useful links Careering into Motherhood Join Careering into Motherhood's online community Get in touch with Jessica to discuss your consulting business Jessica's LinkedIn profile

Sarah Jackson OBE is the former CEO of Working Families, a role she took in the early 1990s after the birth of her daughter, when any concept of flexible working or reduced hours were almost non-existent. Sarah went on to spend her working life campaigning for the rights of working parents, and in this episode she talks about the changes she has seen but also the three key things that she believes still need to change before parents can truly have happy and fulfilling careers in balanced harmony with family life. You can find out more about Sarah here  and read more about her recent appointment to the Careering into Motherhood Advisory Board here.

What can we do when our ambition makes us feel anxious? Is there such a thing as a 'dream job'?

In January, I took down our website in response to comments about our partner coaches not being diverse enough to be relevant or to reflect the community that Careering into Motherhood serves. People were absolutely correct and I had made a mistake, for which I am very sorry and I openly admit and talk about on this episode of the podcast. Over the last few weeks I have learnt so much, spoken to so many people all over the world, and as a result it has re-shaped my business. One of the amazing people I spoke to was Ashanti Bentil-Dhue who joins me on this episode of the podcast. Ashanti is the Founder of Good Soil Leaders, a Diversity, an Equity & Inclusion (D,E&I) consultancy. Good Soil Leaders works with businesses going through the kind of journey that I am going through, Ashanti herself talks a lot about contextualising the situation right now and being “learner-ready.” For Careering into Motherhood this episode marks the start of our journey, it will continue, and will probably never end. When we open our doors once again it will not signify that the job is done, but rather that we continue to grow and learn more about the area of D,E&I as a business and as a community of mothers. You can find out more about working with Ashanti and Good Soil Leaders here  You can listen to Ashanti's podcast Confessions of a D,E&I Practitioner here You can join the Careering into Motherhood community here And watch this space for when we open our doors again to provide women with free coaching tools and expertise on our website.

On this week’s show we speak to Helen Philpot about the wonders of a diverse career path. Early in the show Matt mentioned Dan Olson’s brilliant talk on YouTube – The line goes up – the problem with NFTs. You can find that here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YQ_xWvX1n9g

If you are stressed out because your teen doesn't know what they want to be when they grow up. You are not the only one. Moms spend a great deal of time thinking/worrying about their teens future and so are teens. What are their interests, skills, and passions? What should they major in? What career are they going to pursue? Teens are under more pressure than ever before to know their life plan when they have had limited life experience. This pressure isn’t helpful. Today we are going to talk about how to help your teens turn this pressuring into exploring. I have invited Tamara s Raymond as a guest today.Tamara is a certified leadership coach and career strategist dedicated to helping professionals reach their maximum potential; and young people get on the right career path so they can make a difference. Careering: The Pocket Guide to Exploring Your Future Career is Tamara’s first book.
