    73 | Why your professional network matters

    Networking is one of THE most underutilized career growth strategies within the health professions, especially if you want to make a pivot. And not just networking for the sake of it, but strategic networking that aligns with the direction in which you want to grow your career. When you understand how to identify and tap into the relationships with people and organisations around you and leverage those to advance your career goals, it will shorten to the path towards your career objectives.

    72 | The Element Part 2: Living your Truth

    This is a second episode in 'The Element' series - from the book by Ken Robinson. The lie that health professionals should fit into a singular model in the practice of their profession limits so many in fulfilling their full and true potential - in both their personal and professional lives. Whether within or outside of clinical practice, you can embrace your uniqueness, weave in your personal interests and find creative expression of your natural giftings so you can live out your full value professionally. Will you be brave enough to live your true self? And how will this translate to your career and the direction in which you want to pivot?   Eager for More?

    71 | Five Mistakes to avoid if you are unhappy in your healthcare career

    Too often, when we are unhappy in our jobs, we think that changing jobs will solve the problem. As a result, we spend countless hours scouring job boards for a new opportunity (which depending on your level of success could leave you feeling worse about yourself and your professional value). In today’s episode I will share why that is the number 1 mistake to avoid if you are unhappy in your career. Here are my 5 tips: Don’t simply change jobs - first understand the root cause of your unhappiness Thinking clinical practice is all you can do - you have a whole range of non-clinical skills that can be applied to other roles Believing you are the problem - when we are out of alignment its easy to think you don't 'fit in' or are not good enough when compared to others' standards. It may simply be that you have outgrown your clinical role and need a new challenge. Focusing on hard skills only - soft (interpersonal) skills are increasingly becoming more valuable in organisations all across the world. Not recognising the value of a personal brand - having a public profile that speaks to your values and what you are passionate about professionally, with clarity, will go a long way towards opening new professional doors for you.

    70 | Stop taking the long road!! Why modelling proven practices will get you further, quicker

    Too often, when we are unhappy in our jobs, we think that changing jobs will solve the problem. As a result, we spend countless hours scouring job boards for a new opportunity (which depending on your level of success could leave you feeling worse about yourself and your professional value). In today’s episode I will share why that is the number 1 mistake to avoid if you are unhappy in your career. I have personally spent more hours of my life searching jobs boards for another opportunity that would allow me to escape a job I was unhappy in… in effect.. at those low points, I was simply looking for an escape plan… largely because I still had bills to pay and didn’t fully understand at the time how to own my value and position myself for the types of roles that would light me up because they were based on what I was naturally good at and interested in… so here are my 5 mistakes to avoid. Don’t simply change jobs - first identify the root cause of your unhappiness. Thinking clinical practice is all you can do – There are a whole range of non-clinical skills you gain in the course of your clinical career which can be translated to other roles more aligned with your interests. Believing you are the problem – This calls for lots of introspection... and accepting that there isn't a one size fits all model for health professions graduates. Focusing on hard skills only – more and more organisations are recognising the value of soft skills. Communication, teamwork, empathy. If you think of clinical practice context, most people if given the choice, would choose the doctor or nurse who was kind, patient, who listened to their problem and truly cared over one who had the fanciest equipment or better technical knowledge. Not recognising the value of a personal brand – If you want to position yourself for growth-oriented roles, especially non-clinical ones, you need to think of yourself as a brand – and have some degree of presence online, ensuring that your public-facing content aligns with how you want to be perceived or the value you have to deliver.   Eager for More?

    69 | Are you leaving money on the table? The cost of not exploring your full career potential as a healthcare professional

    Many clinicians feel frustrated by the artificial ceiling that exists in clinical practice which seems to limit their career potential. Identifying ways to exploit your full potential, either through carving out a specific niche that will allow you to grow and scale your professional impact, or by pivoting your career in a particular direction which aligns with your unique skillset and interest, allows you to set yourself apart from other clinicians in your field. In this way, you CAN break through that ceiling and live to your highest potential.   Eager for More?
