When You're at a Career Crossroads with Dr. Robin | Ep 247

This week’s “How She Finds Purpose” insight comes from myself, Dr. Robin– “Here's the truth. When you feel restless, drained, or disconnected, it doesn't mean you failed. It means your soul is waving a flag. It's waving a flag saying it's time to realign.” In this solo episode, I share a personal story about a time when an unexpected three-month assignment at a nonprofit completely changed how I saw my work — and myself. It was during that experience that I felt alive and aligned like never before. And when it ended, I realized I couldn’t ignore the feeling that something was missing. That moment was the beginning of my journey toward purposeful work. I’m a college professor, speaker, author, and coach, and I help high-achieving women close the gap between success and fulfillment so they can live and work with more purpose. Here are 3 reasons why you should listen to this episode: You’ll start to recognize the signs that you might be in a purpose gap, even if your career looks great on the outside. You’ll hear why your wake-up call — whatever it looks like — might be the signal you need to realign with work that truly fits who you are. You’ll get a journaling prompt you can use right away to start making sense of your own crossroads and what your next step could be.
