Reinventing Yourself: Transitioning between high-stress careers

Transitioning into a new work environment is exhausting. You’re constantly “on” - hypervigilant to new details, processes, and cultural expectations. You want to make a good impression.

Here are two ways to male your transition easier while still making sure your work and behavior are on point.

💡 Be Friendly. While obvious, this one is usually overlooked. Often, we are so focused on gathering information that we forget how we’re presenting ourselves. Being a friendly person will allow you to actively meet more people AND leave a good first impression. You’ll be able to integrate into the workplace easier and faster!

💡 Don’t expect perfection. You’re going to call that guy by the wrong name and forget to format documents the right way. Everyone expects this. If you don’t, you’ll become obsessive over the details of what you could have done better, and miss what’s happening right now, furthering your mistakes and distracting you from what really matters: learning.

If you’re over 35, you’ve probably spent the majority of your life trying NOT to listen to your body.

The mental health awareness push came after you were an adult and had already formed habits. Instead, “get over it” was the constant message.

You were told to push through in athletics, run harder and take more Ibuprofen. You were told you were acting like a baby if you were struggling with big emotions. You were told to ignore your hunger cues and try not to eat. Ignore, ignore, ignore.

As you’ve gotten older, the world has realized…we actually need to be doing the opposite.

You have spent a large part of your adult life learning how to experience deep emotions and cope with them, intuitive eating and self-acceptance, when it’s time to take a break. Trying to undo a lifetime of unhelpful habits to be well.

Enter: intuition. When you’re able to access your intuition, you make good choices for yourself, even if they’re uncomfortable. The path to success, whatever that means, becomes clearer - even if more difficult to travel on. You become centered and grounded.

Our clients often ask, “how do I know if I should quit my job?” We’re here to help them find themselves - and find their intuition - because the truth is, they already know the answer.

Out-of-the-box strategy of the week: Don’t Respond

At work, we are often faced with tough, emotionally surprising situations.

We are put on the spot and caught off guard, we start to feel feelings, so we react.

But reacting is never as successful as planned conversation. Whenever possible, defer the conversation.

“I see what you’re saying and that’s a great point, let me think about it and get back to you.”

This will give you the opportunity to calm down and think clearly about how to respond. And not just how to respond - but to respond in the way that the recipient will HEAR. A little extra time will lead to the best outcome for you.
