Most career change stories end with someone leaving everything behind and starting over. Alanna's doesn't. She came back from her honeymoon certain she needed to change everything about her career.
After two years, a baby, three volunteer boards, consulting work, and a run for legislative office, she found what she was looking for without ever leaving the organization she was already in.
If you have been assuming a big exit is the only way to find work that actually fits, this episode is going to change how you think about that.
What You'll Learn:
Why the assumption that you need to leave your job to find meaningful work is often wrong and what to do before you make any major move
What the basket approach to building career clarity looks like in practice and why experimenting broadly is more effective than searching for one perfect answer
How proximity to impact works as a career requirement and why the same role can feel meaningful or empty depending entirely on how close you are to seeing the results of your work
Why pausing a career change during a major life transition can be one of the most strategic decisions you make and how to use that time intentionally
What it looks like to recombine existing pieces of your life into something that finally fits rather than burning everything down and starting from scratch
