Feeling Stuck in Your Career? It Might Be Time to Move On

The Secrets of Learning & Development

If you enjoyed this podcast, we'd love to hear from you!

In this special bonus episode of The Secrets of Learning and Development, Valerie and Julia shine a light on a career dilemma many professionals face but rarely discuss: the hidden costs of staying in a role for too long.

What happens when comfort turns into stagnation? Julia, an Executive Career Transition Coach, shares real-life experiences of executives who came to realise, sometimes gradually, that staying put had cost them more than they expected; whether in career growth, industry relevance or financial opportunities.

Valerie and Julia break down the warning signs, such as feeling uninspired, not learning anything new or sensing that your role is no longer aligned with your ambitions. They also share practical steps to regain momentum, whether through internal opportunities or making a strategic move.

If you've ever wondered whether you're holding on to a role out of security rather than genuine satisfaction, this episode will help you assess, reflect and take action.
