I like the customized message idea for LinkedIn -- communication and networking are the keys to switching your job!

Outstanding video (as always!) Great to hear you mention 16PF. And your LinkedIn "connecting" script is outstanding. 👍

Big thumbs up here Heather. Love this and soooo glad you pointed out to take stock before you decide or commit to a change. And the minor pivot is my fav. Also, I’ve gotta check out that 16 personalities site. Hopefully I don’t have that many different ones! Lol.

Love the questions you ask to figure out what you're passionate about. SO right on. And I really like your differentiation between job change and career change. I need to show this video to my hubby, I think it will really help him. Thanks, Heather!

Thank you so much for the video. A lot of times our passion and values also change and we gotta change career/job based on that. It's a normal process of growing and becoming who we want to be. The last tip was crucial, taking actions to the impossible. Only by taking actions, test drives different routes can we figure out and get to where we want to go. :)

Love the DO YOUR RESEARCH. People have no idea often what actually goes into doing a job. Always good to do your research and maybe even volunteer or intern to see if you even like. it. Having said that, if you are sure then DO IT! "Know you can and do it!"
