Taking a leap is a matter of timing.
Many of my clients stay within their careers, carving paths to create more freedom and impact in their current role or a new one.
But for some, liberated success means stepping into an entirely new way of living and working—often launching their own coaching or consulting practice to address our pressing global challenges in health and climate change.
For Ginger, the time had come. After nearly 20 years in a Fortune 100 company, she was ready to step out of a relentless, high-pressure environment. So we worked together to release limiting beliefs, redefine success, and align with a new vision.
Listen to our conversation to hear how she broke free of the success trap and chose a new path. You’ll hear her experience navigating the change including:
Breaking free from the Success Trap – Why she turned down big titles and big money to create a life on her own terms.
Overcoming the fear of judgment – How she stopped worrying about what others would think.
The cost of performance pressure – Realising the toll of constantly pushing herself and what she did instead.
The turning point in her confidence – What finally gave her the confidence to make such a bold decision.
The role of support – How coaching and The Success Trap book helped her take a leap and choose a new path.
Liberation through deep inner-work – The mindset shifts that helped her let go of status, money, and the ‘sunk cost’ fallacy.
A new vision – How she’s stepping into supporting and coaching others to break free from toxic jobs and relationships.
An unexpected gift – How choosing freedom helped her to find love and the life she truly wanted.
Her enduring superpower – The common thread between her past career and her new path.
