You've built something you're good at. You've put in the years. And now, part of you wants to do something new, but another part whispers, "If I leave, I'm starting from zero." I'll be no one.
My guest this week, Or Harel, knows that feeling, and she walked through it anyway. After 13 years in the military, including a role no woman had held before her, she left at 31 to start over. Since then, she's co-founded two startups and built a career in product, marketing, and research, all from skills she almost didn't recognize as skills.
This conversation is for any woman standing on the edge of a big change and wondering whether her experience will actually count on the other side.
In this episode:
Why "I'm starting from zero" is usually a story, not a fact, and how to spot the experience you're discounting
How to take an honest inventory of your skills without over-selling or tearing yourself down
Why the art of asking the right questions might be the most transferable skill you have
What really holds women back from making a change, and the kind of support that gets you through it
