About this listen

 Are you afraid of taking the next step in your career? This conversation will completely change how you think about fear. Dr Michelle Gibbings is a globally recognised workplace expert, award-winning author, and former senior executive with 30+ years of leadership experience. Her insight about fear being your career compass (not your enemy) is a game-changer for anyone feeling stuck or uncertain about their next move. In this episode, Michelle reveals why the most successful leaders embrace being uncomfortable, how self-awareness gaps are killing careers, and why waiting for your organisation to develop you is career suicide. If you've ever felt nervous about a presentation, scared about a career change, or uncertain about stepping into leadership, this episode shows you how to reframe those feelings as your secret weapon. ____________ ✨Pre-Order The Bold Move✨ 📚 The Bold Move: https://www.theboldmovebook.com ____________ Connect with me: 🔵 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/georgiehubbard/ 🟪 Instagram: http://instagram.com/georgielhubbard ♦️Website: https://www.georgiehubbard.com 🌀Pivotr: https://www.pivotr.com ____________ Connect with Michelle: ♦️Website: https://michellegibbings.com 🔵LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/michellegibbings/ ____________ Timestamps: 00:00 - Welcome and Michelle's introduction 04:12 - Career defined by love of adventure and choice 05:51 - Why regret scared her more than taking action 09:06 - The meditation retreat decision that changed everything 11:19 - Career and life decisions work hand in hand 13:00 - Learning to listen to your intuition and emotions as data 17:04 - What 30 years in corporate taught her about leadership 20:00 - Why you never know what you're capable of until you do it 22:01 - Bad boss vs ineffective boss - the self-awareness gap 25:17 - The relational focus that transforms leadership 26:25 - Skills leaders need for the next 5-10 years 29:08 - Why AI becomes an equaliser between good and average performers 32:15 - Learning in the cracks for time-poor professionals 36:09 - The importance of boundaries and saying no 38:18 - What Michelle loves about running her own business 43:18 - What professionals are struggling with right now 45:39 - Why you must be the leader of your own career 47:14 - Why fear is actually a good thing ____________ About Michelle: PhD, Chartered Manager, Professional Certified Coach, and author of three globally translated books including "Bad Boss," "Step Up," and "Career Leap."
