The Classy Career Girl Podcast

In a bit of behind the scenes, this episode is from a training I did in my membership. I go through the overview of Corporate Rescue Plan: Employee to Entrepreneur Success Path.

Gail's career journey is an inspiring tale of passion and purpose. With a background in human resources across retail and entertainment, she discovered her true calling in helping individuals navigate their careers. Starting with informal coaching sessions, Gail realized her unique perspective from the "inside" of HR could be a game-changer for others. She launched a coaching business, put it on hold, but her passion never wavered. As a Classy Career Girl® Certified Career Coach, she found the structure and support to relaunch her business successfully. It's been a whirlwind 8 months, filled with helping others define their career paths and build their own coaching businesses. Gail's advice? If career coaching aligns with your dream life, take the leap! Reach out, have conversations, explore the possibilities. It's a decision she hasn't regretted for a second. @gn_bespoke_career_consulting #CCGcertified #CareerCoaching #DreamLife #StartYourOwnBusiness #Entrepreneurship #CareerGrowth #AchieveYourGoals #WorkLifeBalance #PassionProject #CareerAdvancement #Motivation

A common theme I keep hearing is, "I'm not an expert, how do I get the experience I need so people will hire me?" Here's the catch, people think the only way to become an expert is to gain experience, but you can't gain experience because you're not an expert. In today's episode I dive into how to gain the necessary experience you need!

Traveling with kids, quitting our jobs, homeschooling... Sound scary? It was! But when your dream life is on the line, fear takes a backseat. Each leap gets easier when you're fueled by passion and purpose.

The image might paint a picture of success: traveling for work, commuting to prestigious cities, climbing the corporate ladder. But behind the suits and government consulting facade, I was drowning in stress, unhappiness, and burnout. Here's a little origin story of Classy Career Girl. The Struggle Within: Miscarriages chipped away at my hope, and the pressure to conform took its toll. I was overweight, unhealthy, and desperately seeking something more. The corporate world had squeezed the life out of me. A Leap of Faith: Deciding to prioritize my well-being and happiness was scary. I put motherhood aside (temporarily!), committed to getting healthy, and chased a burning vision. Nights and weekends were spent pouring myself into my blog, building a course, and dreaming of a different future. From Part-Time Hustle to Thriving Business: Going part-time in the corporate world felt risky, but it opened space for new possibilities. Event hosting, network talks, and 1-on-1 coaching sessions started popping up. The monthly revenue, initially a trickle, slowly grew into a steady stream. This Wasn't Just About Money: It wasn't just about financial success. I was building a community, connecting with people, and sharing my passion. Every webinar, every coaching session, was a tiny victory, a step towards the life I envisioned. Finding Balance: My journey wasn't always smooth. There were bumps, doubts, and moments of uncertainty. But the key was learning to find balance. Balancing my growing business with the joys of motherhood, carving out time for self-care, and embracing flexibility became my mantra. My Message to You: If you're feeling stuck, unhappy, or burnt out, know that change is possible. It might not be easy, but with courage, commitment, and a willingness to step outside your comfort zone, you can create a life that nourishes your soul and sparks joy. My journey from the corporate ladder to career coaching and motherhood taught me that the most valuable pursuit is not defined by titles or external validation, but by the pursuit of happiness and fulfillment on your own terms.

Branding is not about logos, fonts, and colors When it comes to branding, many coaches get bogged down in the details of design. They focus on creating a visually appealing brand that might look great on paper, but doesn't actually connect with their target audience. The truth is, branding is more about messaging than it is about aesthetics. It's about how you make your clients feel when they interact with you, whether it's through your social media posts, your website, or your sales calls.
