Attributing success to factors outside of your own talents and say things like “we were lucky things went so smoothly” or “it was good timing”. If so, you need to listen to this week's episode of The Career Confidence Podcast where I share:

Resenteeism - it's the new career buzzword in town! it describes when an employee stays in a job they don't enjoy because they are worried about economic uncertainty or there is a lack of better options. This leads to resentment and feeling disengaged and unhappy at work.

In this episode I share:

How to Set (the right!) Career Goals for 2024
When it comes to setting career goals, most people start in the wrong place. They sit down with a blank piece of paper and try to squeeze out a list of things they think they 'should' be doing over the next year.
The result is that the goals remain some words on a bit of paper that have no real meaning and you certainly don't take any action towards achieving them.
In this episode of The Career Confidence Podcast, I share a different approach to gaol setting. I talk about:
The power of reflecting on the year just gone. Filters you can use to check if you have the right goals. How to make your goals SMARTER (don't be put off by SMART goals, they shouldn't be your starting point but used properly, a SMART filter can be a gamechanger). About Nicola Semple

Customer Reviews
Really helpful for people starting their career and navigating the world of work
Initially found this podcast as I wanted to navigate my first 90 days in my new role. I messaged Nicola to see if I could gain more advice as I found her podcast very helpful! She was super lovely and offered to have chat to understand my situation and give me a new perspective. Couldn’t recommend enough!
Just the tonic I needed!
I stumbled across Nicole’s latest podcast when I was looking for something to give me a boost. Her latest podcast about comparison struck a chord with me and will definitely help me going forward. I’m off to download the rest of the podcasts. Thank you!
