#68: The Career Reset: How To Finish 2026 Strong (No Matter Where You Are Now)
Have you been putting your head down and working hard since the start of January — without pausing to assess your progress along the way?
If so, today I’m walking you through a mid-year career reset to finish 2026 strong.
We’re officially halfway through the year!
In Australia, 30 June marks the end of financial year — a time where you naturally look back at the past 12 months and plan ahead. So I thought this would be a great opportunity for us to check in on your career together and reset your goals for the next 6 months.
But as I sat down to record this episode, I felt creatively blocked. After putting it off all week, I made two attempts to outline it over the weekend. Both times I hit a wall, slammed my Mac shut and binged TV instead.
Because even though I guide high-achieving leaders through this exact resistance, I’m not immune to it. So I did what I’d recommend to any of my clients: I recognised I was mentally tapped and allowed myself to rest.
Then on Monday morning, instead of trying to THINK about how to explain this process, I took myself through it. And it worked. The insights I got from this exercise surprised me and I know it’ll do the same for you.
In this episode, I’m sharing 3 simple steps to help you:
- Reflect on the past 6 months, so you can clarify what you want to create in the second half of 2026
- Identify the ONE area to focus on next to find fulfillment at work and set your career up for success — no matter where you are now
- Discover the first step to take right NOW to reduce overwhelm, build momentum and begin the rest of the year with intention
So grab a pen and paper and let’s finish the year strong!
