The Next Evolution Of Your Success

Most of my clients are already highly accomplished in their business and career.

They’re smart, savvy women who have made their mark professionally by following their vision and committing to their work.

The challenge for this type of client isn’t about “making it”. It’s that the level they’ve reached is filled with responsibility, expectations and a serious potential for burnout.

Some of these women still love what they do and others are considering a change. But they’ve all reached a point where elevating their success by recapturing the joy that supported their growth has become a priority.

If this sounds like you, here’s what you need to remember.

You have the leverage to pivot

When you’ve risen to the top professionally, it can be easier to create change than early in your career.

I don’t mean that it will feel easy…but you have the skills, network, resources and reputation to make a significant shift. You’re not desperate and that’s an advantage.

Your lack of desperation might just keep you in the same place for too long though…even when you know you’ve grown past it.

So your job is to get clear on what you want now and make decisions about changing either what you do or how you do it.

While this alone can feel risky, you have the tools to navigate a better future…and your experience and connections will help.

You can craft your own narrative

When my high-level clients know they’re ready for change, they ask things like…

“How do I position myself at this point in my career for something new?”

“How do I change how I operate while keeping my reputation intact?”

“How do I explain giving up on opportunities when everyone thinks I have it so good?”

When we explore these questions, I often ask clients what they’d advise someone else to do in the same situation. They usually know the answer right away.

You’re probably good at framing conversations and creating narratives for others…but it can be harder to do for yourself, especially when the stakes are high.

So while language and positioning matter, don’t let concerns about why you’re making changes keep you from taking your next great step.

You matter more than your work

This is a tough one for many accomplished women. When you’ve worked so hard to climb the ladder, it’s easy to get lost in your own success.

But if the position you’re in, the role you’re playing or how you operate are taking its toll, it’s time to put yourself first.

What makes sense professionally can inform your next chapter, but it doesn’t have to determine it. Your needs and desires get to take precedence now…even if you’ve never experienced that before.

If your work no longer works for you, this is your chance to rise up or slow down. Your success and happiness are designed to coexist…so if you’re not satisfied, please don’t settle for less.
