Top 3 career change myths
Today we’re talking about career change myths.
The top 3 myths around career change that I regularly hear my clients talking about are:
- You need to accept a cut in salary when you change careers
- You need to retrain or undertake further study
- The only available opportunities are advertised on job search websites
If you believe these myths, you will continue to:
- be stuck in your current role, which may be draining or unfulfilling
- doubt your ability to make a successful change
- believe there are no roles out there for you.
When my clients bust through these myths, they:
- get clarity on the work they were born to do aka their dream role
- build the confidence to fill the confidence gap that exists between today and moving to you dream role
- follow my roadmap to get from A to B more strategically and easefully .
So let’s bust these myths:
#1: You need to accept a cut in salary when you change careers
95% of my clients do not experience this.
#2: You need to retrain or undertake further study
Not true! 90% of the time my clients do not undertake further study. Those that do, only do so because they really want to.
#3: The only available opportunities are advertised on job search websites
Only 20% of jobs are advertised. Only a fraction of available roles are visible. I can show you how to access the other 80% using my Connect Method.

Now, for each myth ask yourself:
- When you believe in this myth, how does it affect you?
- Are you limiting your options when you believe in this?
- Are you procrastinating?
- Are you not believing in yourself?
What are you going to do about it?
Are you going to do some research before making more assumptions?
Are you going to partner up with a coach or mentor to do this strategically and more easefully than by yourself?
