38. How to design a career you love - My career journey - the full story

My full career story!

How I landed all my dream jobs, which ones were amazing, which ones were hard work, which ones I got fired from, all the juicy details.

My career to date has been such a huge part of my life, (it was my full-time ‘day job’ obviously!) and is something I am incredibly proud of but not an area of my life I have ever fully shared.

In this episode I cover:

• Some of the career-defining decisions I had to make and how I made these. 
• The biggest lessons I learnt from both the good and the bad roles
• Why I moved to Australia and how I got my first job here. 
• How I ended up running workshops with some of Australia and New Zealand's top CEO at Stanford University
• What I did when I was fired from my dream job.
• How I managed my career, my sport, my relationships and my own business when I wanted to give 100% to everything. 
• The importance of mentors and role models throughout my life.
• How I actively chose my career path and the factors I considered.
• Why I left my last role and what my plans are now. 

This episode is a bit of storytelling but I hope it gives you insight and ideas into how you can go about designing your career path and the key decisions, actions and moves you need to make.
