Key points Lori and Nola are sharing in this episode:
(04:37:00) The fundamental difference between a career mentor and a career coach.
(06:36:70) Although you might seek coaching services to help you reach a goal or with a desire to make more money, get a promotion, or have an easier time at work, all those things are generally symptomatic of a larger issue that's happening.
(09:17:30) We say you can do anything, but we don't say you can do many things. The values and goals that you had professionally in your 20s are going to be different when you're in your 40s, 50s, and beyond.
(11:15:20) How to combine setting goals with the steps to taking action so that when you feel like you are out of your comfort zone, you still feel like you're making progress.
(17:04:90) Often, people walk away from tenured careers and successful positions because they could not get through an interpersonal challenge they had with someone in the workplace. Here’s what to do first.
