Do you feel stuck in a career that no longer excites you—but worry it's too late to pivot?
The truth is, you don’t have to start from scratch to change direction.
In this powerful episode, host Olajumoke Fatoki sits down with Katie O’Malley, Founder of (en)Courage Coaching, to debunk the myth that you need to start from scratch when making a career pivot.
Together, they explore:
✅ Why your past experience is never wasted
✅ How to overcome the fear of changing paths after 10+ years
✅ What it means to build a career portfolio (not a ladder)
✅ How to upskill with confidence and clarity
✅ Why staying stuck is riskier than starting fresh
Whether you’re in your 30s, 40s, or 50s, it’s not too late to realign your work with your values and strengths. This episode will show you how to do it with purpose—and without losing everything you’ve built.
