  Have you ever been asked, what did you want to be when you grew up? And do you remember what you said?Mine was a TV presenter, a Blue Peter presenter, to be specific. And my twin brother wanted to be a burglar (he was obsessed with Burglar Bill). I'm happy to report he went on to become a talented musician instead. He actually wrote all the music on this podcast, so if you're ever looking for one, DM me!Why do I bring this up you may be asking?

  Have you ever had a defining moment at work where you thought, I just cannot carry on like this anymore? You know, when something in your head says something has to change?In this first ever episode of Beyond the Ladder, I'm sharing the exact moment I had that feeling. It was a cold, wet November day, my son was throwing pasta at me, my daughter was asking a million questions, and my husband cut me off mid-rant to tell me I'd become so negative. And he was right. I had become someone I just didn't recognise anymore.I then walk you through the Circle of Life exercise, something I did when I was feeling really stuck. I'd thought it was just my job making me miserable, but actually there were three other areas of my life I'd scored really lowly too.If you're feeling stuck right now, this is a practical exercise you can do today, and it might just show you something you hadn't seen before.Topics:The moment the pain of staying stuck became greater than the fear of changingYour job is only one part of the pictureHow to use the Circle of Life exercise to take a bird's eye view of where you are right nowHow to rate six areas of your life and spot what's really dragging you downWhat one simple thing you can do tomorrow to start moving your scores upwards—Join the waitlist for the Career CompassFollow me on InstagramGet free practical tips to enjoy your job again!Book a FREE Career Reset Breakthrough call—Mentioned in the episode:Circle of Life templateThis episode was edited by Adrienne Cruz.
