How to start your career change before you feel ready

Most people will get stuck delay their career change because they:

🫣Don’t feel ready

🙄Don’t know what their ideal role is

🤔Aren’t sure where to start

Sound familiar?

There are a lot of disadvantages to waiting. It will probably take longer than you think to land your ideal role. After all, we are just talking about getting any job.

It's possible, but it takes strategy and planning.

The good news is, there are steps you can take that will help you get ready and maybe more important FEEL ready.

Want to learn what they are? We will go over how to get ready AND how to take steps to figure out what you ideal roles are.

Out of my 171 clients, over 70% of them didn’t know what their target role was when they started working with me. That was why they were looking for help!

During this class, I will cover several case studies, including:

Alison came to me because she had felt lost for over a year. She left a career as a teacher and ended up working in minimum wage jobs that she wasn’t passionate about. She used this method to figure out what she wanted to do and she landed a role at Zillow as an Instructional designer.

Sarah was too afraid to update her Linkedin profile. She worked for a toxic boss and wasn’t sure how she would market herself after being in an unhealthy environment where her work wasn’t appreciated. Through our work together she saw her unique value and went out and landed her dream job at one of the most famous nationwide nonprofits as a Director.

They tell you - the key is to start before you feel ready, but you don’t have to do it alone!

If you are able to start your job search even 3 months earlier and get a role 3 months earlier, on a 70k salary, that would earn you an additional $17,500! Or if you already have a role, that is 3 months sooner than you spend doing something you love.

HEY, I'M LYNN. I’m a job search strategist.

🙌 I will never encourage you to “fluff” your resume. Authenticity is important to me and a big part of what I teach.

☕I MUST start every day with an iced coffee.

💫Teaching has always been my superpower. You may currently feel like your superpower is a disadvantage. (I mean, why would Microsoft want to hire a teacher? But..they did.)

🌄I lived in Medellin, Colombia, for 8 years. My dream city would be a mix between Seattle and Medellin.

💡 I never expect you to believe everything I say because I said it. Ask me why.
