Podcasts about your career podcast

Love Your Career Podcast? Let us know!Picture this: A poster of me, at the age of 16, modelling sunglasses in Hong Kong, looking glamorous with them perched stylishly on top of my head. Not protecting my eyes, just making a fashion statement. [Click this link to view my 1975 poster]Fast forward 50 years to last Wednesday, and I'm recovering from painful pterygium surgery with my bandaged eye, staring at that very poster on my wall. The irony? I spent decades with the solution literally on my head, just a few inches too high to do any good.What has this to do with Career Success? Listen to this compelling episode which will make you reflect on the choices we make early on in our lives and careers, and the consequences of bad choices (or avoiding what we must do for future success).Key takeaways from episode 274 of Your Career Podcast:1. Prevention is Always Better than the CureThe most striking lesson is how much easier, and less painful, it is to protect yourself proactively rather than fix problems later. My 1975 sunglasses story perfectly illustrates this: a simple daily habit of wearing eye protection could have prevented surgery, seven weeks of recovery, multiple medications, and significant pain. This applies to every area of life: career, health, relationships. 2. Physical Health and Career Success Are InseparableYou can't compartmentalise your wellbeing. When you're running on empty physically, you can't show up fully in your career. Job searching requires stamina, resilience, and clarity of mind. Career transitions demand energy for networking, interviewing, and decision-making. If you haven't been taking care of your foundation, sleep, nutrition, exercise, boundaries, you're essentially trying to climb Mount Everest with a broken ankle.3. Self-Care Is Strategic, Not SelfishThe biggest mindset shift is viewing self-care as protection rather than decoration. Just like networking shouldn't be something you only do when you need a job, taking care of yourself shouldn't be something you postpone until "things calm down." Your future self is counting on the choices you make today, and time moves faster than we think. What feels like a distant future becomes today in the blink of an eye - sometimes literally.Listen to my personal story which we all can relate to, especially those considering a career change when unprepared.  What will YOU do to ensure you don't leave your metaphorical sunglasses on top of your head instead of what they were designed to do?- - - - - - - - - -  >>> For career clarity and confidence, download Jane's career resources at janejacksoncoach.com Support the showFind out what you MUST DO to make a successful career change and land the job you'll LOVE.

Today's very special guest is Adam Scougall.  Corporate professional turned Interior Designer and now combines his two careers.  I've had the great pleasure of working with Adam through his career reinventions and delighted that Adam now blends the best of both worlds and has created the satisfying and rewarding career he loves. In episode 251 of Your Career Podcast he shares his fascinating corporate, creative and entrepreneurial journey.  A little known fact about Adam is that he was a child actor and featured in Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome with Mel Gibson and Tina Turner in 1985! Adam's story is one that is a little out of the box. We hear a lot about interior designers aspiring for luxury clients and an office full of staff. But Adam couldn't imagine anything worse. After 18 years of people, leadership in his corporate life, he ventured out in in 2018 to running his solo design biz full time. This lasted for 3.5 years before he returned to where he started. Corporate [with a buzzing design side hustle]After working with a broad range of clients, some great and some a nightmare, Adam became tired of having to accept jobs that could make ends meet, as opposed to fulfilling his creative juices. Covid didn't help financially, nor an always ‘pending' recession, and after those years, Adam realised he did not wish to pursue a ‘be all and end all' approach to his design career. He wanted stability, steadier finances and the ability to only take on design work that fulfilled both his own and client vision.Adam now enjoys what we call a lifestyle business, balancing projects he only wants to take on whilst [now happily] holding down a full-time gig at his corporate firm of choice. He has also developed his own signature design implementation system that employs other designers to assist day to day, with Adam coming in only at key points in the project.Adam is about to launch his podcast telling all his experiences.  Watch out for the launch on podcast platforms on 5th September 2023!  “SO YOU WANT TO BE AN INTERIOR DESIGNER?”His aim for the show is to teach you the thrills, reveal the spills and show you how you can create an Interior Design career that suits your lifestyle.Where to find Adam:  Adam Scougall Designs https://adamscougall.com/ Adam on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/adamscougall/ Adam on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCV055_s7AX_Nsd--zbmf7cg Adam  in Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Want to know what's missing in your personal Career Toolkit?

If you DON'T love your job. Is that a bad thing?It may be controversial, but perhaps it is OK not to love your job!There is so much focus on following your passion and purpose that I believe that many of us have forgotten that people work to earn money in order to pay their bills.Of course it's important to enjoy what you do, but if you don't feel PASSION for your work that does not make you less worthy as an employee than someone who displays great passion for their job function, or industry, or company.Everyone has a motivator and at different times in your life you may find that what motivates you changes.This episode of YOUR CAREER Podcast is the result of an interesting article I read in the Weekend Australian entitled “Why Passionate Staff May Be Bad for the Office Culture” and, wanting to read more, I clicked through the links and voilà, I found this excellent article by Winnie Jiang, Assistant Professor of Organisational Behaviour at INSEAD, that inspired today's newsletter:‘Your Most Passionate Employees May Not Be Your Top Performers‘.In this episode I discuss what was written and provide some insights into what I know will be helpful to you in your career.  I mention my Career Clarity Pack and assessments in this episode - if you want to assess your motivators in your role, find the Career Clarity Pack here.Please feel free to comment, disagree, add to what I discuss in this episode as I love a robust discussion.This podcast is to prompt you to think about your own career and also for me to learn from you, the reader, so I'd love to know your thoughts on this topic.  For more inspiration, follow me on Instagram @janecareercoach- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -  Want to know what's missing in your personal Career Toolkit?

Alden Mills shares his career journey with Jane Jackson on Your Career Podcast as he is on a mission to help 100 million people Be Unstoppable. He has over 40 years of experience failing and succeeding in areas including sports, the military, business, nonprofits and community action groups.Alden has learned that success is driven by one vital factor – leadership – of oneself and others. Alden Mills first learned to lead himself. As a weak child with asthma, doctors insisted he limit physical activity and avoid sports. But no he didn't! With the mindset instilled in him by his mother that “no one defines what you can and can't do, but you,” he went on to become a National Collegiate Champion rower, earning Gold and Silver medals at the Olympic Festival, and a Navy SEAL who was top of his class. From a young age he amassed notebooks of invention drawings. One of those ideas became the wildly popular Perfect Pushup and today he holds over 40 patents worldwide.As Alden achieved personal successes, he repeatedly grew into leadership positions. He became captain of his collegiate rowing team, was promoted three times to Navy SEAL platoon commander, and ranked #1 platoon commander each time. He turned a single invention into a global fitness powerhouse in over 70 countries with multiple products, leading Perfect Fitness to become the fastest-growing consumer product company in the country, with over $95 million in sales in just three years. Along the way, Alden cultivated a methodology - Unstoppable Leadership – that develops people into congruent and authentic leaders who successfully build teams and create cultures that are unstoppable.Through speaking, coaching, writing, board advisory, and teaching, Alden helps people acquire the mindset, tools, and actions required to accomplish more than they thought was possible.Find Alden here--------------------------------------------------- Want to know what's missing in your personal Career Toolkit?

How often do you listen when someone talks to you? I mean REALLY LISTEN to what is being said? Too often we listen to respond rather than listen to understand and that’s what this episode of YOUR CAREER Podcast is all about. Oscar Trimboli is the author of Deep Listening and is on a mission to create 100 million Deep Listeners around the world.“We speak between 125 and 175 word per minute, yet we can listen to 400 words per minute. That means that no matter how fast they speak, your mind can process three to four times more words. It’s this gap that causes you to drift off and be distracted when listening.”Host of his award-winning podcast, “Deep Listening” and a popular keynote speaker, Oscar is passionate about using the gift of listening to create greater understanding, positive change and a stronger global community.What are the conversations you are not listening to?Oscar works with chairs, boards of directors and executive teams in local, regional and global organisations, and has experienced firsthand the transformational impact when leaders listen beyond the world they hear. Oscar has worked with organisations including Cisco, Google, HSBC, News Corp, PayPal, Qantas, TripAdvisor helping executives and their teams to not only listen to what’s said by their customers and employees but what is unsaid.Find out about Oscar’s career journey, how he handles change and how deep listening has helped his consulting business grow.

Pippa Hallas is the CEO of the iconic skincare empire Ella Baché.At the time of recording, we are in the middle of the global Coronavirus pandemic and these are challenging times when we need strong leadership and inspiration. This episode is dedicated to this amazing woman who is successfully leading through change and it's an honour to hear her career journey on YOUR CAREER Podcast.Pippa Hallas is the embodiment of female empowerment - she’s a mentor, wellness authority, a mother to two young sons, a wife, and author of BOLD MOVES – How to Stand Out, Step Out and Make Your Next Bold Move. This book pays tribute to remarkable Australian women including Lorna Jane Clarkson, Tracey Spicer, Layne Beachley, Kym Ellery and, of course, Pippa’s great aunt, Madame Baché.Ella Baché is a family run business which was launched by her great aunt Madame Baché in Paris in the 1936 and brought to Australia by her grandmother Edith Hallas in the ‘50s and developed under the leadership of her father John in the eras that followed. Now, in her capable hands, Pippa is driving the brand into a new era of beauty. Over the past 10 years as CEO, she has focused on the same principles the business was founded on, but adds to its repertoire as a trusted go-to brand in the skincare and cosmetic world. Prior to joining the company, Hallas worked at the esteemed advertising agency, McCann Erickson in London. Her love for brand building and marketing [she studied business/marketing at university and did her post-grad in the same field] saw her join the family business in a marketing role, later as GM and then as CEO to take Ella Baché to the next generation. Pippa has grown the franchise business to over 155 salons and launched the e-commerce site which has evolved over the last seven years. She says she’d like to continue to support the franchise model and continue to prove that it is a viable business option for young women wanting to become business role models. “The fundamentals of what made Ella Baché a success was the person behind the name – she was a scientist/chemist and it was her approach to innovation and doing things differently that saw her become a world leader in beauty,” Pippa says. Pippa's prerogative is to educate young women about skin health and not erase the skin that makes them who they are. The key at Ella Baché is about making sure women feel confident in their own skin. It’s reflective of Pippa’s role as a working mother and CEO of a company – proving you can manage both aspects in your life and do so confidently. What’s more, she wants women to understand that quick beauty fixes aren’t the answer to skin longevity or loving yourself. “My philosophy is to make sure women feel confident in their own skin and that they don’t want to erase it to look like someone else. Beautiful differences about yourself is something we want women to embrace. Our skincare is about enhancing the look of your skin, making it the best it can be,” she says. “I feel very lucky to have grown up with such a great brand and to be part of its future,” she says. Pippa is empowering women, running a successful business and navigating uncertain times with compassion, empathy and exceptional leadership skills.

Do you know what is going to make you happy and fulfilled in your next role? On today’s bonus episode of Find Your Dream Job, Scott Barlow, Founder of Happen to Your Career and host of the Happen to Your Career Podcast, identifies the four key traits that lead to career happiness. Scott also illustrates how clarity in these areas builds a framework for a successful job search. The 4 Key Traits you must have to find happiness and fulfillment in your job are: Helping people — Most people want to know how the work they do helps others. Your basic needs must be met. Your work must be engaging, and you must have a clear understanding of how you are doing. You must have supportive co-workers and a leader. If you approach your career as if you are putting together a puzzle, and start with your strengths as the corner pieces, and then add the outside pieces, which are your wants and values, you will have the framework of your ideal career profile. Scott and his team at Happen to Your Career have put together “The Ultimate Guide to Using Your Strengths to Get Hired.” Find Your Dream Job listeners can download this resource for free at Happentoyourcareer.com/macslist.

Losing your job—under any circumstances—is a painful, embarrassing experience, and it’s natural to be upset. You may feel like you’ve lost control of your life, or that you’ll never find another job.  Plus there’s the stress of managing your financial responsibilities on a diminished income. While it’s natural to be anxious after a layoff, you shouldn’t let panic drive you to rash decisions. So say this week’s guest, Jane Jackson. Instead, give yourself time to heal and figure out the next step in your career. Jane suggests that you reach out to trusted friends and professional contacts to help you avoid catastrophic thinking and maintain perspective. These people can help clarify where you are where you are in life and what options are available. Only after you’ve properly dealt with the emotional aspect of a job loss, should you create a plan to find your next gig. If you jump too quickly into the job search process, you’re likely to come across as desperate or needy to potential employers—a dynamic that will only lead to more frustration on your part.

She is the author of the Amazon #1 bestseller, Navigating Career Crossroads: How to Thrive when Changing Direction. Jane also hosts the Your Career Podcast.

This Week's Resource Ben’s resource this week is the blog post, After Being Fired, Answer the Job Interview Question: Why Did You Leave Your Job? from Job-Hunt.org, The post recommends starting with a positive statement and then explain the circumstances around your being fired in an honest, flattering light and then pivot to a positive takeaway from the experience. Listener Question of the Week Joining the Mac’s List team as a guest-host is Andrea Gerson, Portland-based career coach and principal at Resume Scripter. Andrea, Ben, and Mac answer Jasmine Ward’s question: "Should I send a cover letter even when the employer doesn’t specifically request one in the job posting?"

Scott Anthony Barlow is the founder of HappentoyourCareer.com At Happen to Your Career, Scott helps business professionals stop doing work that doesn't fit, figure out what does then strives to make it happen within their careers. He has been helping people develop their careers and businesses for over 10 years as a Human Resources Leader, Business Development Expert, and Career Coach. Scott is also a podcaster with two successful podcasts, the What fits You audio course, and the Happen to Your Career Podcast. His ultimate goal is to help you find those Ah Ha moments, so you can take control of your career journey and begin living A life.. that is.. unapologetically you! HAPPEN TO YOUR CAREER - FIGURE IT OUT The Figure It Out course is for anyone who is struggling in their career and is not sure where to start or feels a calling to do something different but doesn't yet know what that is. Scott explains The Figure It Out methodology by comparing it to building a puzzle. Just like a puzzle, in order to figure out your career direction you first need to start with the corner pieces, or as Scott calls them your signature strengths. There are many ways you can discover your strengths. The StrengthsFinder 2.0 assessment is just one. You may remember my conversation with Lisa Cummings, a Gallup Certified Strengths coach, on the importance of understanding your strengths. Scott agrees which is why he makes your strengths the corner pieces in your career puzzle. Once you've identified your corner pieces, the next step in the process is to build out your frame. This part, in my opinion, is the hardest one and it's one we will all struggle with because it requires us to take an inventory of our lives for maybe the first time. The email course provides you with several exercises designed to help you walk through and prioritize all aspects of your life including areas such as your environment, your finances, family, personal growth and even your health. Scott explains during the show how all of these areas may overlap today but by prioritizing them, you begin to turn them into puzzles pieces that fit together in a way to build the complete picture. The reason this step is so difficult is because it requires you to make decisions and for many of us decisions don't come easy. However, is we really want to make a difference in our lives and our careers, decisions are exactly what we need to make. Ralph Waldo Emerson once said, “Once you make a decision, the universe conspires to make it happen.” The same is true in our careers, but how many of you reading this can answer the question, “What do you want out of life and your career?” If you find yourself struggling to answer this question, Scott's course is for you.
