 Why your career doesn't need a January reset


It's January and somewhere between the break ending and the first full week back, the pressure kicked in. New year, new you. Time to have a plan. Time to finally figure out what you're doing. And if you haven't got all that sorted yet, there's this creeping feeling that you're already behind. That everyone else has it together and you're still just working it out. This episode of Career Espresso is about why you don't need to start over, and why continuing is actually a much stronger position to be in.


What you'll discover
-Why the January reset pressure hits women differently and lands on top of everything else you're already carrying-The difference between genuine motivation and pressure-driven anxiety, and how to recognise which one is in the driving seat-Why treating yourself like something that needs demolishing and rebuilding every January keeps you in a permanent state of starting over-What actually counts as progress, including all the quiet stuff you've been dismissing-How recalibration beats reset when you're feeling the pressure to change everything-Perfect for women who feel behind in January but don't actually need to throw everything out and start again.
