263: Reclaiming Motivation When the Tank Feels Empty
Manage episode 519426602 series 3310389
What happens when the best-laid plans get derailed: through redundancy, setbacks or sudden change? How do you pick yourself up, rebuild confidence and find the motivation to get moving again?
In the second episode of our Energy Refuel & Reset mini-series, we are joined by the brilliant Zoe Lewis, co-founder of AgileSource, who shares her honest and uplifting story of bouncing back after redundancy.
As a lifelong recruiter, Zoe brings invaluable insight from both sides of the table: from navigating her own career crossroads, to helping others find new roles in the digital, data and cloud technology space.
She talks about how an “attitude of gratitude” helped her reclaim her career sparkle, why their company logo features two magpies, and how small acts of joy can fuel big shifts in self-belief.
A warm and practical listen for anyone facing a setback and needing a boost of motivation, perspective and positive energy.
