How do I even start figuring out what I actually want in my career?
We ask kids that question all the time, like it's simple. But as adults, it gets messy.
For a long time, life kind of moves in a straight line. School, maybe college, maybe your first job. It's easy to see what's next, and you've got people to compare pace with. But once you're out there in the real world? Everyone's on a different path, moving at different speeds – and suddenly that sense of "where am I supposed to be?" feels a lot blurrier.
The truth is, most of us are figuring it out as we go. Even the ones who look like they've got it together.
So, if you're stuck, unsure, or just trying to check in with yourself, you aren’t alone and you don’t have to figure it out from scratch.
🎁 The Career Compass Worksheet — included in the free Career Clarity Packet — is a great place to start.
It’ll guide you through what motivates you, what strengths you want to lean into, and what limits or realities you need to work with.

It’s not about having a five-year plan. It’s about building awareness — and using that clarity to guide your next step.
You don’t have to have it all figured out. But you do deserve to feel grounded in where you’re headed.
If you get stuck or just want to talk it through, reach out. I’d be happy to hear where your head’s at.
