You want more from your career, but the thought of change feels totally overwhelming. Maybe you feel undervalued, bored, or burned out. Maybe you enjoy your job, but lack a path to advance.

The hard truth is that most of us follow outdated rules and assumptions that hold us back. Join double ’Hoo Spencer Ingram for a refreshingly fun, step-by-step method to get unstuck and become confident in how you talk about what comes next in a way that gets people to help you succeed!

What you will learn:

● A framework to clarify what you want
● How to test-drive careers without taking big leaps
● Tactics to overcome common obstacles, fears, and anxieties
● Practices to expand your awareness of exciting opportunities
● Authentically connect with people who will power your success
