How can men find their way in a world that rejects traditional male role models as "toxic?" Leadership Development Coach and host of the True Freedom podcast, Bodhi Aldridge joins me on Awakened Nation to help today's young men get in touch with true masculinity. Author of Visionary Male Leaders, Bodhi has dedicated his life to deeper meaning, helping CEOs, men in their 40, 50s and 60s, get unstuck, to live far more meaningful lives. "Men want to fee freedom, while women want to feel connection...it's why men root for their favorite football team, or look for that one man to look up to." Bodhi is the author of Visionary Male Leaders and brings a much needed conversation to Awakened Nation. www.freedomminicourse.com https://bodhialdridge.com/ About Bodhi Aldridge: Bodhi Aldridge is passionate about guiding male business owners and leaders around the globe to become more present, magnetic and self-aware leaders, husbands and fathers. His journey as a father, a grandfather, a lawyer, a coach and facilitator has taken him across the world diving deep into traditional teachings and contemporary leadership development. "What I know is… all men long for freedom. The problem is, none of us really understand what true freedom means. We think it's something external - more money, more time or an endless summer…" But true freedom comes from within. Having worked with thousands of male business leaders and owners around the world for over 20 years, there are three main problems they want a solution to (even if they don't know it yet): 1. Their Distracted Mind 2. Their Resistance to Life 3. Their Sense of Overwhelm "The men I work with are basically me, 25 years ago. I had a loving marriage, 4 great kids, a thriving legal practice and a beautiful home. But in my efforts to build my business and family, I had lost touch with myself." At 60, Bodhi has found a path to true freedom within. His obsession is to share this knowledge with as many men as possible and guide them to create a life of Freedom, Flow, Abundance, Impact and Joy...  whilst more skillfully navigating the ups and downs of professional and personal life. Bodhi spends time with his wife of 40 years and they live by the beach near Byron Bay, Australia; with 4 children and 10 grandchildren who keep them tapping into the pure joy and innocence that life can offer... traveling around the globe and his daily practices of surfing, yoga and music.

Greetings, Career-Minded Superstars! Welcome to The Exclusive Career Coach podcast. I'm Lesa Edwards, Certified Executive and Leadership Development Coach, Certified Job Search Strategist, and Master Resume Writer.  If you would like to learn more about my practice, check out my website at exclusivecareercoaching.com. While you're there, be sure to look at the Free Resources page – I have lots of great stuff there for you to take advantage of.  So far this month, I've talked about what you need to know if you are going to be conducting a job search this year – and what the job market currently looks like. I've discussed what is going on with remote work, the importance of personal branding, LinkedIn, tailoring your marketing materials for each position you apply for, and the role technology is playing in the interview process. I also dug deep into what is currently happening with the U.S. workforce – and what is expected to occur over the next few years around worker supply and demand, the aging workforce, and wage growth.  Today, I want to talk about the obstacles you may face if you are planning to job search this year. I've teased out six things you'll want to take into consideration as you look for your next great role.  1.    A lack of personalization in the hiring process. Over and over, I hear my clients' frustration about how technology has removed the personal touch throughout the hiring process. From initial interviews conducted using AI tools to Applicant Tracking Systems to an inability to reach a human at the hiring company, candidates are FRUSTRATED.  My solution for this shouldn't surprise you if you've listened to my podcast before: Networking. Specifically, my +1 approach, where you do one more thing in addition to just applying online like everyone else. I've talked about both of these in depth in multiple other episodes, so I won't dwell here. Here are a couple of other tools to help with this lack of personalization: Expect that it will likely be impersonal – in other words, manage your expectations. Also, exhibit as much patience as you can possibly muster in navigating the various platforms you'll be interacting with.   2.    Companies that want you to jump through hoops like a circus animal.  From projects that take hours of your time to multiple interviews (I had one client who was subjected to 10 interviews before they went with their internal candidate) to cumbersome application requirements, some companies just don't understand that their efforts to find the perfect candidate is often resulting in the perfect candidate running in the opposite direction.  My advice: Decide whether you're in or you're out. If you're in, be willing to do whatever is asked of you, with a positive attitude (they will smell your resistance). To be fully in, it's so important that you really want that job with that company – and you fully believe you have the qualifications, professional qualities, and culture fit to be a great hire.  Just don't apply if you aren't really excited about the job and at least 75% qualified. Save your energy for the ones you are truly in on.   3.    Being ghosted.  I was fascinated to sit at a round table discussion with HR folks recently, who to a person complained about how candidates were ghosting them. When I spoke up about my clients' frustration about how employers were ghosting them, they were shocked. I'm sure you aren't surprised, though – you may well have faced this very thing. Whether from an in-house recruiter or third-party recruiter, it's particularly difficult to understand this when the recruiter reaches out to you unsolicited.  There are myriad reasons this may be happening, but what I want to point out here is this: Don't make it mean anything about you. You get to decide what to think about this sudden radio silence – please don't think it's because you aren't qualified or they didn't like you.  I like to think of it this way: I was spared from working with a company that doesn't have its act together and/or doesn't recognize my genius. Something better is on its way to me.   4.     Companies that take you all the way through the hiring process, only to tell you there's been a hiring freeze, a change in priorities, or “we found a better candidate.” It's always more difficult when you've invested a considerable amount of time and emotional energy in a lengthy process. I spoke with a prospective client just yesterday who had been told an offer was on its way, only to meet with the HR representative and be told there was a hiring freeze.  My solution for this situation is to stay in touch – most likely through LinkedIn. That hiring freeze will lift, they will figure out what direction they want to go in, and they will have other hiring needs (or figure out their first choice wasn't the right choice).  Calendar in a cadence of regular, infrequent communication with your contact, and look for ways to add value to them with things like acknowledgement of accolades the company has received or important industry information.   5.    Your competition may be miles away.  Especially with remote jobs, your competition has increased exponentially as candidates from around the globe can do the work from home.  This is where personal branding, an achievement-focused resume, and strong interviewing skills become even more important. Whether you are their back-door or across-the-globe candidate, you MUST show them that you are the best fit for the role and the company culture. And yes, culture DOES matter, even with remote jobs.  Know yourself, know the company, and be able to articulate how the two fit together perfectly.   6.    Employers that immediately want to know your salary requirements.  Some states have adopted wage disclosure laws so companies have to post salary ranges with their job descriptions. As of this podcast, 13 states have pay transparency laws, although the specifics of those laws vary greatly.  My philosophy on this used to be deflect, deflect, deflect…be vague – after all, how can you tell them what you want before you truly understand the job requirements and how you are the perfect fit? Now, however, I am encouraging candidates who are asked to give the salary range they are looking for, based on research into the industry, job function, geographic region – as well as the candidate's qualifications and experience.  The reason employers are asking is because they don't want to waste their time with someone whose salary expectations are not in alignment with what they are able to offer.  My final word to you today is this: You don't have to do this alone. If you would like to schedule a complimentary consult to discuss how I can support you in landing your dream job despite the challenges of today's job market and hiring practices, here's the link to my calendar: https://calendly.com/lesaedwards/zoom-meetings2 Take care, and I'll see you next week!

I can't believe this is episode #300! My first podcast was published on October 25th, 2017. Shortly after that, I put out four additional episodes utilizing some material I had already created. I had no idea where I was going to go with the podcast after those initial episodes – I only knew that I really, really wanted to podcast and believed it was the best way for me to get my brilliance out into the world.  There has been an evolution of The Exclusive Career Coach, to be sure…As the focus of my practice evolved, so did the audience I spoke to via the podcast. Earlier episodes were heavy on content for recent college graduates; there were also episodes for wanna-be entrepreneurs. I went from no guests to having about 25% of my episodes be with guests, before settling on about 10% guest episodes.  I used to “bracket” episodes with themes…spending three or four weeks in a row breaking down a larger topic like interviewing or career decision-making.  I will admit that finding new content for the podcast has become increasingly difficult. ChatGPT has been extremely helpful in guiding me towards the topics people are searching the internet for. I also rely heavily on the “zeitgeist” – what my clients are asking me about and what I'm seeing talked about on social media and in online groups I am a member of.  Now for the meat of episode #300 – My Best Career Advice. I'm going to reference specific episodes and have included the links to those episodes in the show notes. I've awarded winners in each of the categories of podcasts I release, Academy Award style.  Winner of My Best Advice for Career Decision-Making: #119 – Are You Squarely in the Center of Your Passion? This episode resonates deeply with me, as I talk about how so many people leave who they really are at home when they go to work. As a result, work is unfulfilling and mind-dulling. https://www.exclusivecareercoaching.com/posts/2020-03-18-119-are-you-squarely-in-the-center-of-your-passion I give three case studies of people I have worked with who were squarely in the center of their passion, and why.  Two books I recommend in this episode are Tim Kelley's “True Purpose” and Po Bronson's “What Should I Do with My Life?” Great episode for those of you who are questioning whether you have lost your way, career-wise…or just want reassurance that you haven't.  Winner of Best Advice for Managing Your Career: #219 - Ten Symptoms of Job Burnout – and What to Do About Them http://exclusivecareercoaching.com/posts/2022-03-25-219-ten-symptoms-of-job-burnout-and-what-to-do-about-them This episode was published on March 23rd, 2022 as the world emerged from Covid. Although this episode wasn't specifically about Covid-related burnout – I brought on guests to talk about that topic – it was about how to specifically recognize that what you are experiencing at work is burnout.  For each of the Ten Symptoms, I provide a question to ask yourself and what to do about that symptom. Hint: While some of the Ten Symptoms suggest that you may need to look elsewhere, only two of the Symptoms outright require moving on.  Great episode for those of you who aren't feeling it at work, but don't know why. Or you suspect what the problem is, but don't know what to do about it.   Winner of Best Advice for Making a Career Transition:I actually have three episodes for this category – all related to career pivots and career reinventions. #121 – Career Pivots and Reinventionhttps://www.exclusivecareercoaching.com/posts/2020-04-01-121-career-pivots-and-reinvention #133 – Is Now the Perfect Time to Reinvent Your Career? https://www.exclusivecareercoaching.com/posts/2020-06-24-133-is-now-the-perfect-time-to-reinvent-your-career #280 – What You MUST Do in Your Job Search if You Are Pivoting Careershttp://exclusivecareercoaching.com/posts/2023-07-19-280-what-you-must-do-in-your-job-search-if-you-are-pivoting-careers In these episodes, I define career pivots and career reinventions, give strategies for successfully navigating a career pivot or career reinvention, talk about the pros and cons of a career reinvention, and give strategies for job searching when you have decided to pivot or reinvent your career.  Great episodes for those of you who are considering a career pivot or career reinvention – or those of you who are dissatisfied with your current career path and want to explore alternatives.   Winner of Best Advice for Dress & Etiquette:I haven't done many episodes in this category, and some of them are with guests, which I'm leaving for a separate category.  #291 – What Should I Wear to a Job Interview? http://exclusivecareercoaching.com/posts/2023-10-04-291-what-should-i-wear-to-a-job-interview In this episode, I address the questions I'm getting about how to dress for job interviews in a post-Covid world. I cover WHY dress still matters, how to determine what is appropriate dress for the company culture, and the levels of business casual.  Great episode for those of you with a job interview coming up, whether in person or via technology.   Winner of Best Advice for Job Interviews:Consistently, the episodes I publish about interviewing are among the most downloaded – clearly people are roaming podcasts to get ready for a job interview.  I began with episodes covering more general aspects of the job interview; since then, I've gotten more granular with the scope of what I cover.  I've selected three winners, all covering the behavioral interview: #277 - Behavioral Interview Questions Don't Come Out of Thin Air – How to Know What You're Going to Be Asked http://exclusivecareercoaching.com/posts/2023-06-14-277-behavioral-interview-questions-dont-come-out-of-thin-air-how-to-know-what-youre-going-to-be-asked #262 – The Behavioral Interview: Your Five-Step Process for Delivering Job-Winning Answershttp://exclusivecareercoaching.com/posts/2023-02-22-262-the-behavioral-interview-your-5-step-process-for-delivering-job-winning-answers #150 - Putting a Bow on Your Behavioral Interview Answers http://exclusivecareercoaching.com/posts/2023-02-22-262-the-behavioral-interview-your-5-step-process-for-delivering-job-winning-answers I cover what a behavioral interview question is, how to prepare for these types of questions, and how to wrap up your answers with one of two approaches that garner you what I like to think of as “bonus points.”  Great for those of you who have job interviews coming up!   Winner of Best Advice for Job Search:This is a HUGE category! I could have gone in a lot of different directions with the winner, but I chose a foundational concept that benefits EVERYONE looking for a new job.  #258 - How to Organize Your Job Search Time to Optimize Your Results http://exclusivecareercoaching.com/posts/2023-01-25-258-how-to-organize-your-job-search-time-to-optimize-your-results I provide five strategies for structuring your job search time to yield the best possible results.  Great for those of you who find your job search time gets hijacked by other things – and those of you who find your job search time isn't being used wisely.   Winner of Best Advice for Life Coaching:To be clear, I am a Certified Executive & Leadership Development Coach, not a life coach. However, life coaching is an unregulated industry, and I am a student of life coaching.  It's incredibly important for me to talk about your mindset when we talk about most of these other topics, but your thoughts WILL generate the results you get.  These five episodes each cover an aspect of the thought model taught by one of my early coaches, Brooke Castillo. In a nutshell: A Circumstance is a situation in your life that can be proven in a court of lawYou then have a Thought – positive, negative, or neutral – about that CircumstanceThat Thought generates a Feeling for youThat Feeling generates an Action, Inaction, or Reaction, whichLeads to your Result #38 - The Neutrality of Circumstanceshttps://www.exclusivecareercoaching.com/posts/2018-12-19-038-the-neutrality-of-circumstances #39 - Your Thoughts Determine EVERYTHINGhttps://www.exclusivecareercoaching.com/posts/2018-12-19-039-your-thoughts-determine-everything #40 - How Do You Want to Feel?https://www.exclusivecareercoaching.com/posts/2018-12-19-040-how-do-you-want-to-feel/ #41 – Taking the Proper Action Stepshttps://www.exclusivecareercoaching.com/posts/2018-12-19-041-taking-the-proper-action-steps #42 - You ARE Getting Results…Are They the Results You Want? https://www.exclusivecareercoaching.com/posts/2018-12-19-042-you-are-getting-results-they-the-results-you-want/ Great for those of you who want an easy-to-understand framework for looking at the results you are getting in your life…and why.   Winner of Best Advice for Leadership:Several of the episodes about Leadership include guests, but here's a great foundational one with 10 points you must know to be a successful leader.  One I think is often overlooked is #7 – ask for advice on your leadership. Many new leaders – and seasoned ones as well – are either afraid to ask or don't think they need to. Be open to feedback from your direct reports and you'll become an even better leader. #223 – Leadership 101: What You MUST Know to Be a Successful Leaderhttp://exclusivecareercoaching.com/posts/2022-04-20-223-leadership-101-what-you-must-know-to-be-a-successful-leader Great for those of you entering into your first leadership role, or those of you who could benefit from a refresher.   Winner of Best Advice for LinkedIn: This is another huge category. Because technology is involved, some of my earlier podcasts on LinkedIn contact outdated information.  I chose this episode because this is a concept I teach a lot of my clients – how to leverage the people their connections are connected to.  #244 – Mining Your Connections' Connections on LinkedInhttp://exclusivecareercoaching.com/posts/2022-09-28-244-mining-your-connections-connections-on-linkedin Great way to expand your LinkedIn network strategically and easily.   Winner of Best Advice for Networking: Of all the networking-related episodes I've put out, I've gotten the most feedback on this one. I think that's because Introverts resonated with the topic – and many Extraverts did, too.  One of my goals in my practice is to help my clients become successful networkers – getting past their fears, learning how to network effectively, and how to give as much value as they get in the networking process.  #295: Help! I'm an Introvert and I Hate Networkinghttp://exclusivecareercoaching.com/posts/2023-11-01-295-help-im-an-introvert-and-i-hate-networking Great for everyone who is less than excited about networking.   Winner of Best Advice for Professional Development:I did this episode in the later days of Covid, when so many were working remotely and others had gone back into the office. I was getting a lot of questions about how to make sure your work was noticed when you didn't have direct face time with your boss. #221 – How to Get Noticed and Promoted While Working Remotely http://exclusivecareercoaching.com/posts/2022-04-06-221-how-to-get-noticed-promoted-while-working-remotely Great for those of you who still work remotely, and those of you who supervise remote workers.   Winner of Best Advice for Resume Writing:It may surprise you that, as one of fewer than 25 Master Resume Writers in the world, I don't love talking about resume writing.  I love WRITING resumes. Having said that, I have put out great content covering all aspects of the resume. The episode I chose goes into some detail on how to customize your resume for each position you apply for. Everyone tells you you SHOULD do that – but I wanted to tell you exactly HOW.  #287 – How to Tailor Your Resume and Other Materials For a Specific Positionhttp://exclusivecareercoaching.com/posts/2023-09-06-287-how-to-tailor-your-resume-and-other-materials-for-a-specific-position Great for those of you in a job search.   Winner of Best Advice for Salary Negotiations:I've only done a handful of episodes on this topic; the episode I chose provides you some foundational teaching I do with my clients who want coaching on salary negotiations.  #149 – Salary Negotiations: 3 Important Numbershttps://www.exclusivecareercoaching.com/posts/2020-10-14-149-salary-negotiations-3-important-numbers/ Great for those of you who are in a job search.   Winner of Best Advice for Work Issues:This category covers a lot of ground and it was difficult to pick a favorite. The one I chose is one I frequently send a link to for clients and those I consult with.  #169 – Questions to Ask Your Manager to Improve Your Relationshiphttps://www.exclusivecareercoaching.com/posts/2021-03-17-169-questions-to-ask-your-manager-to-improve-your-relationship/ This is another one I frequently send links to out to folks:#171 – How to Have a Successful 1:1 With Your Bosshttps://exclusivecareercoaching.com/posts/2021-03-31-171-how-to-have-a-successful-11-with-your-boss Great for those of you who not only want to improve your working relationship with your boss, but also those of you who want to maximize the effectiveness and frequency of your 1:1 with your boss.   And finally, Winner of Best Guest:As I tell you every time I have a guest on the podcast – I don't often HAVE guests on the podcast. Think of this as a Venn diagram: I want a guest who overlaps the areas of expertise I have (in other words, not someone talking about something completely off-target for my audience), BUT who doesn't completely overlap my area of expertise (I've already got those areas covered, thank you very much).  I want to give out two awards here; the first is for the episode I most frequently direct people to listen to: #154 – Five Ways Mind Drama Can Creep Into Your Job Searchhttps://www.exclusivecareercoaching.com/posts/2020-11-18-154-5-ways-mind-drama-can-creep-into-your-job-search-with-jane-springer Jane Springer was my guest on the episode – BTW, she earns a side award for being my most frequent guest. Mind drama is a HUGE issue in the job search…and completely avoidable. In this episode, we talk about the 5 ways mind drama can show up when you're looking for a job – and what to do about each.  My second award goes to the person who most affected me personally; this episode rocked my work in more ways than one. #247 – Are You Ready for a Career Break? http://exclusivecareercoaching.com/posts/2022-10-19-247-are-you-ready-for-a-career-break-with-katrina-mcghee Katrina McGhee talks about her own experience with taking an extended, planful career break – and how you can do the same. P.S. – She recently published her book: Career Break For Dummies” – check it out!  Great for those of you who have a life goal you'd like to achieve that requires a concentrated amount of time away from work – and those of you who have a deep need for rest and regeneration.   So, happy 300th episode! To those of you who listen faithfully each week, I so appreciate your dedication to enhancing your career – and that you trust me for that help.

Happy Holidays! Whatever you celebrate – and whoever you have the blessing of celebrating with – I wish you Peace, Joy, Love, Laughter…and lots of good eats! I wanted to revisit a topic I covered way back in episode #82 on how to answer the “Tell me about yourself” interview question. That episode aired on June 5th, 2019, so I thought it was time to go over how I coach my clients to answer this question. There's a phenomenon call the primacy effect, which states that people remember whatever came first in a sequence. There's also the recency effect – people remember whatever came last in the sequence. Because the “tell me about yourself” question is asked first if it is asked at all, it holds considerable weight in the interviewer's mind. It also gives you the opportunity to start the interview off on the best possible foot. Here's what a lot of coaches will tell you: Tell them your work history, your strengths, why you want to work for them…they want you to make this a full-on sales pitch. Here's why I DON'T recommend this approach: I have interviewed hundreds of candidates over my years in higher education, and I had a structured interview process. Meaning: we asked every candidate the same questions and had a pre-determined scoring system to try to keep the evaluation process as fact-based and non-partial as possible. Not to mention: If you provide them with your life history, it's likely to be loooong and you might find the interviewer nodding off. Not a great start. In a structured interview process, which most employers use (often for legal reasons), they will ask you about your strengths. They will ask you why you want to work for them. They will ask you why they should select you over the other candidates. If you answer ALL these questions in your response to “Tell me about yourself,” you will have thrown off the cadence of the entire interview. The interviewers will have to scramble to evaluate you on questions they haven't yet asked you. Here's why I ALWAYS ask the “Tell me about yourself” question: I want to see what will come out of your mouth when asked such a broad, non-specific question. I have had candidates tell me about their abusive ex-boyfriend, their three preschool kids, their spouse's job, what's going on in their family of origin. Oh – and my personal favorite – how they can't come to work when they are tired. ALL THINGS I CAN'T ASK ABOUT. I also ask this question as a nice “soft pitch” before getting into the more technical or behavioral questions. I am surprised by how many are completely unprepared for this question. I'm also surprised by how many people answer in a way that puts the interviewer to sleep and/or overloads them with too much information. Here then, are my top 8 tips for developing your answer to the “tell me about yourself” question: 1.    Structure your answer in a past – present – future format.Give the interviewer a bit of information about where you came from, where you are now, and where you want to go.  2.    Stay at the 40,000-foot level.This is not the time to provide details about your accomplishments, work experience, or skills – they will ask questions about these things later.  3.    Keep it to 2-3 minutes.By staying at a 40,000-foot view and not getting into the weeds with specifics, it is easy to keep your answer to the “tell me about yourself” question to no more than 3 minutes. This will also help the interviewer keep on track with the questions he/she wants to ask without going over time and will keep the interviewer's interest high.  4.    Introduce your brand, right up front.If you've done the personal branding work I've talked about on other podcast episodes, you should be very aware of your personal brand. Here's your chance to introduce your personal brand right at the top of the interview…and reinforce it throughout the interview.  5.    Provide personal information.If the interviewer would be your new boss, he/she is going to want to get to know you as a total person. Even if the interviewer is from HR, giving the interviewer a sense of who you really are will help him/her to decide if you would be a good fit for the available position. The caveat here is that the personal information should be neutral or positive. Some examples: -A foreign language you are learning-A hobby you are passionate about (as long as it doesn't scream death-defying danger)-A personal goal you are working towards (such as building a home or training to run a marathon)-A recent travel experience What constitutes negative personal information? Here are some I've been given in actual job interviews: -Number and ages of children-Health conditions-Marital status (recently divorced)-The fact of, and reasons for, being recently terminated  These tips apply to the “tell me about yourself” question as well as the entire interview: 6.    Pay attention to nonverbal cues.One of the best ways to make sure you are proceeding with your answer to any interview question in the proper way is to watch for nonverbal cues from the interviewer. Note that I'm not saying there is a “right” or “wrong” answer to an interview question. What I'm saying is that sometimes candidates misunderstand the interview question and aren't providing the interviewer with the information he/she is looking for. It is perfectly acceptable to stop, ask the interviewer for clarification on the question or to verify that you are providing him/her with the desired information.  7.    Relax.You may think it is impossible to relax in an interview, but I promise it will serve you well to develop this ability. I'm not suggesting that you be so relaxed that you're practically asleep, but rather that you aren't so tense that you are struggling to communicate effectively and look like you are about to jump out of your own skin. This first question is a great opportunity to you to relax into the interview so you can put forth your best effort.  8.    Let your personality shine through.Many people I have interviewed over the years were stiff, all business, and showed no sense of humor. If you have a sense of humor – let it shine through, as long as you remain in good taste. If you love to do nice things for your co-workers to create camaraderie and a sense of team – tell the interviewer about this. If you are too buttoned up because you think this should be a serious affair – and you are naturally a fun and personable creature – the interviewer isn't really getting to know you. In other words, there's a bit of false advertising going on.  An ExampleI thought I'd end with my “Tell me about yourself answer.” We'll pretend I'm applying for a job back in higher education as Director of Career Services. “One of the most important things to know about me is the breadth of experience, skills, and credentials I bring to the table. “As you've probably already seen on my resume, I spent 10 years as Director of the Career Center at Columbus State University, followed by 12 years in the same role at Truman State University. At Columbus State, I led efforts to separate career services from the Counseling Center and became the new entity's first Director. In that capacity, I created the university's cooperative education program, which was successful enough to be able to hire a full-time co-op coordinator the next year. “At Truman, I took a career center that was underutilized and underwhelming into a highlight of the university – touted in admissions material and to employers and donors. When I was hired, my boss told me that if I could turn the Career Center at Truman into a showpiece for the university, I would have worked a miracle. When he left Truman for another university, he told me I had worked a miracle. In 2012, I left higher education to work in my practice full-time. In this capacity, I have worked with clients on all continents except Antarctica on resume writing, LinkedIn profiles, job search strategy, interview techniques, salary negotiations, and career management. I am one of 23 Master Resume Writers in the world, and a Certified Job Search Strategist, Certified Executive and Leadership Development Coach, and Master Practitioner of the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator. While I have loved owning my own business, I am excited about the prospect of leading a team again – and being part of a team as well. I am motivated to help each team member reach their full potential and create a team that is cohesive and engaged. On a personal note, I am an avid reader and love to listen to true crime podcasts. I have two hound dogs who love to take me for walks.” Time: 1:50  Are you in the wrong job that chips away at you every day?
