That feeling that something isn't right about your career.

It’s easy to dismiss.
To push down.
To explain away as stress, or a phase, or just “how work is.”

But it’s rarely random.

It’s often a signal.

That something about the way you’re working is no longer aligned with who you are.

Not everything needs to change overnight.

But ignoring that signal doesn’t make it go away.

It usually just gets louder.

So instead of pushing through… It might be time to get curious.

To explore it properly.

To ask: What exactly isn’t working anymore? And what might need to change?

To the woman who can’t ignore the feeling that something isn’t quite right about her working life.

You’ve done what was expected.
You’ve built the career.
You’ve shown up.

But underneath it all…

Something feels off.

That quiet discomfort?

It might be telling you something worth listening to.

Not all career advice is meant for you.

The most useful career advice isn’t prescriptive.

It’s personalised — grounded in a deep understanding of who you are and what you want from your working life.

So don’t feel the need to follow everything you read.

Instead, develop enough self-awareness to know which advice to take — and which to leave behind.

The truth is, that striving for perfection can often hold us back. When we obsess over every detail, we delay progress and miss opportunities. Embracing "good enough" allows us to take action, learn from experience, and build momentum. It's a reminder that perfection isn't always the goal—sometimes, simply moving forward is more powerful than waiting for everything to be flawless.

Something to try when you're feeling overwhelmed, stressed, or caught in a spiral of self-criticism. It’s a quick pause to remind yourself that it’s okay to be imperfect, and that you deserve kindness—especially from yourself. Whether you’re facing setbacks, feeling anxious, or just needing a reset, taking a self-compassion break helps ground you and refocus with a gentler mindset.

Self-compassion is about treating yourself with the same care and understanding you'd offer a friend. It’s built on three key elements: (1) mindfulness, which helps you acknowledge your struggles without judgment; (2) common humanity, the reminder that everyone faces challenges and you’re not alone; and (3) self-kindness, offering yourself warmth and support instead of harsh criticism. Together, these elements create a powerful tool for resilience and emotional wellbeing.

Starting by saying; "This is a moment of suffering", then, "Suffering is a part of life". Then pick 1 - 2 of the sentences that resonate most with you (from #3). Repeat as you need.

We love this practice. Hope you do too! x

Over the weekend, we started reflecting on the year, and what we want from 2025. Here's what we're letting go of in the new year to make space for our (big) plans...

Feedback. Let’s be real—many of us dread the thought of it. But here’s the thing: good feedback is absolutely critical for career success. Did you know that a lack of feedback—or worse, inadequate feedback—can actually derail your career? Here are four reasons why, and how it might be holding you back more than you realise.

Increased uncertainty. Without feedback, it’s tough to know if you’re meeting expectations or missing the mark. This can cause self-doubt and make it harder to stay focused.

Lack of direction. When feedback is unclear, you’re left guessing what actually matters. This can mean you’re spending time on things that aren’t moving you toward your goals (... or those of the organisation). Over time, this can lead to burnout and frustration.

Unrecognised effort. Without feedback, it’s easy to feel like your efforts are invisible. You're likely to lose motivation and energy.

No path for growth. Without meaningful feedback, it’s hard to know where to improve. You might start to feel stuck with no clear path forward.

If you want more useful feedback, here are some things to consider:

Be specific. Instead of asking, “How am I doing?” try, “Can you share your thoughts on my recent project and areas where I could improve?” or “What strengths do you see in my work that I should build on?” If you have already identified a development goal already, you might ask, "This year, I want to develop .... Did you have any feedback from my recent project that might help me with this?"

Request regular check-ins. If feedback only comes at annual reviews, suggest monthly or quarterly check-ins with the person you report to. These don’t have to be formal—just short sessions to discuss your progress, goals, and any adjustments you could make.

Seek diverse perspectives. The best insights come from those working alongside you—not just the person you report to. Ask for feedback from a trusted peer, or a client / customer. Diverse feedback can offer fresh perspectives and actionable insights from those in your sphere of influence.
