About this listen

Episode 7: In this episode, I break down two of the most common myths that stop people from pursuing the career change they truly want.

First, I’ll unpack the misconception that changing careers means starting from scratch and explain why you’re actually building on a foundation of valuable experience, transferable skills, and personal growth.

Then, I’ll tackle the sunk cost fallacy: the belief that walking away from your current path means you’ve wasted all the time, energy, and money you’ve invested. You’ll learn why this thought error is not only untrue, but also counterproductive and how reframing it can make the difference to being open to new opportunities.

If you’ve ever felt stuck between your current career and the one you really want, this episode will help you see your past not as wasted effort, but as the launchpad for your next chapter.
