3 steps to building self-support in your work is essential for anyone experiencing any level of career instability. Whether you're questioning your path and considering a career change, dealing with layoffs, or feeling the strain of unclear goals and shifting expectations, these practices can provide a supportive space to discern your next step. Cultivating your ability to check in with yourself and make aligned choices empowers a sense of resilience even in an ever-changing professional landscape. You deserve to know what you need and to take up space in asking for it – even if it’s just the space to make an intentional decision.

In this episode of Mindset Unlimited, I invited Miriam Raquel Sands to join me in a conversation about engaging 3 steps to building self-support in your work and beyond.

Some of what we talk about in this episode includes:

• The tension between stability and self-discovery in work.
• Unpacking career as identity and the emotional charge of non-linear careers
• Finding your way through self-reflection and aligning actions with values—not just external expectations.
• Creating a support structure with awareness of whether your environment truly supports your well-being
