#46: From ‘Coasting’ To Changing Careers In Their Current Company

Aug 21, 2025

Are you caught up in the ‘hamster wheel’ of daily tasks and realising you’ve completely neglected your long-term career goals?

Today we’re talking about how to take back control and start creating the career you WANT — without burning out or starting over.

This is the first instalment of a brand new ‘Career By Design’ case study series. In these episodes, I’m giving you an exclusive, behind the scenes look at my clients’ career transformations.

For confidentiality reasons, many leaders I work with choose to share their experiences anonymously. So my intention with this series is to take you a layer deeper into my observations of how they navigated a career crossroads.

As with all the case studies in this series, there are 3 things these clients have in common that you can use to create a career on your terms too:

1. Clarity: Figuring out why you’re unhappy in your current career and what you truly want before attempting to change it.

2. Confidence: Shifting your mindset and overcoming the fears and doubts keeping you stuck to build confidence

3. Career Strategy: Focusing on solving the right problem and knowing which strategies to use to get the results you want.

In this episode, you’ll hear how one client went from letting their career unfold, to driving their own development. Discover how they made a complete career change in their current company — and walk away with ideas to make an internal move in your organisation too.

You’ll learn:

  • How this client went from confused to clear on their direction — and the ONE quality you need to make the right career decisions
  • The biggest fear which holds even the most confident high-achievers back in their careers and how to move through it
  • Specific strategies which helped this client make an internal move into a new career — and 3 things that separate those who land the right role, faster (from those who don’t)
  • Top takeaways you can apply right now to create a career on YOUR terms — even if you think you’re too busy or are worried about making the wrong move

So hit play now — and let’s dive in!
