This week I'm excited to share a "Best of the Exclusive Career Coach podcast" episode — I speak with life coach Jane Springer on the types of mind drama I hear from clients related to the current job market, their qualifications, themselves as human beings, their job search strategy, and their career focus.

This mind drama is causing people to stop job searching or put in minimal effort – which, of course, solidifies their opinion of the job market and themselves.

Step 1 is recognizing when you are engaging in mind drama; Step 2 is acknowledging which type(s) of mind drama you’re in.

We tackle each of these areas of mind drama and provide concrete action steps to overcome.

  1. The job market

    “There are no jobs out there.”

    “No one’s hiring.”

    “There’s so much competition for every position.”

  2. Your qualifications and credentials

    “I don’t have the proper education.”

    “I’m over (or under) qualified.”

    “I don’t have ____(fill in the blank with whatever certification or credential you think you need).

  3. You as a human being

    “I’m too…” (old, young…whatever)

    “I’m not confident.”

    “I’m not good enough.”

  4. Your job search skills / strategy

    “I don’t know how to…” (interview, plan a job search, network…)

    “I’m not a good interviewer.”

    “I’m too shy to network.”

  5. Your focus

    “Maybe I need to take my career in a different direction.”

    “There are no jobs in my field, I’m thinking of changing to…”

    “I don’t know what I want to do next.”
