Gaps in your resume? Not a problem
The problem is not that you have a gap in your resume.
It’s that you think other people will think less of you because of the gap.
Newsflash: they won’t.
The reality is that most people aren’t thinking about you.
They’re thinking about themselves.
This is great news.
Because it means you get to write your own narrative and then hand deliver it to those around you.
Whatever story you tell is the story that will get told about you to others.
So you better get clear on your story.
It starts with your thoughts.
Does your inner dialogue sound like this?
I’m not marketable anymore
Nobody will want to hire me
My skills don’t translate well
It’s going to look bad that I took time off
You have to cut the negative self-talk.
Try this instead:
Did you take five years off to have a baby and raise your kids?
Own it! Tell them that the time away has made you more ready than ever to get back on the court. Explain how parenthood has made you the master of prioritization.
Did you abruptly quit your job because you couldn’t stand to be there any more?
Amazing! Tell them how you’re now 100% clear on your values – that your greatest work lies ahead of you.
Were you laid off?
Not a problem! It happens all the time, and it’s not your fault. Own it. Make no apologies. And move forward.
Make zero apologies for the gaps in your resume.
In fact, make zero apologies for how you’ve lived your life up to this point.
I see so many people struggle with this idea.
They feel like they’ve lived life on autopilot.
Or that they haven’t been intentional.
And now when they look around, they feel stuck and unsure how to move forward.
That’s why I created The Independence Equation.
It’s my signature coaching program for driven professionals who no longer know what they want.
Or who feel deflated in their current situation.
When you sign up for The Independence Equation, you get immediate access to weekly live coaching + the online course + the online community.
It’s an ideal program for driven professionals who are looking to
Switch jobs
Start businesses
Make more money
Create a life that’s more aligned with their values and purpose
Get clear on what’s next – even if they have no idea what that looks like right now
It's the same high quality coaching that I have delivered to c-suite executives, business owners, and creative entrepreneurs for the past 7 years, just 80% cheaper.
I want you to walk away feeling like this was the best money you've ever spent.
I want you to get tangible results that make the investment a no brainer:
Landing a new job in 30-60 days
Increasing your income by $50,000+
Starting a business of your own
Reclaiming your confidence and your calendar / time
Exiting the rat race altogether to pursue a totally different end game
If you have friends who you know would love working with me but haven’t had the cash, now is the time.
Or if you yourself have wanted to work with me but didn’t have the money, you finally can.
Or if you’ve worked with me in the past and want to start working with me again, do it!
