EPISODE NOTES

In this episode, Lise Stransky and I discuss the value of career health and making choices that will best suit us and our goals in life. Lise Stransky works at Calgary Career Counseling and as a Certified Career Development Professional, she has keen insights into how to navigate change, both chosen and that which is foisted upon us, with resilience. 

Lise shares advice on how to not only build a network but maintain your existing network. We talk about how people often have blindspots when it comes to the intrinsic value in who you know and who you continue to meet. Lise details the key skills everyone should have heading into the future, whether employed or looking for new work opportunities, and how learning is something we should never stop doing. 

What is the health of your career heading into 2022? Now is a good time to assess where you are and where you want to be, and this episode will give you very thoughtful advice on how to go about that assessment.
