Get the job you want & avoid the burnout trap

Описание: In 2026, the job market feels more like a broken machine than a ladder to success. On one side, we have high-performing professionals drowning in burnout, doing the work of three people just to stay afloat.

On the other side, we have brilliant, experienced women—many in their 40s with degrees and decades of expertise—who send out 80 resumes and receive nothing but silence.

Today, I’m joined by leadership strategist and HEART Goals™ creator, Charlene Ridley. Charlene doesn’t just offer "hustle" advice; she offers a professional audit for your soul. We dive deep into why 80% of employees are burning out and how the "invisible" job seeker can re-position themselves to be seen, heard, and hired.

In this episode, we explore:

✅ The Burnout Trap: Why "jumping ship" in a panic leads to pay cuts and how to audit your alignment before you break.

✅ The Invisible Professional: Why qualified women are being overlooked and the exact shift needed to reclaim your professional identity.

✅ The HEART Goals™ Framework: A simple, SHRM-accredited system to move from misalignment to purpose-driven performance.

✅ The Faith Pillar: How rooting your identity in Jesus Christ provides the resilience to thrive when the marketplace feels unstable.

Whether you are exhausted at your desk or desperate for an interview, this episode gives you the language, clarity, and agency to take your power back. There are several key messages here for you.

God didn't design you to just "survive" the work week; He designed you to thrive in your purpose. You don’t need to be perfect, you just need to get started. Remember that life is more than just what we earn!
