Creative Career Change Cycle
Purpose → Network → Balance → Experiments → Portfolio. A practical cycle for changing your career without burning your life down.
Overview
If Sunday night dread is creeping in, it is usually not a motivation problem. It is a mismatch. This course helps you get clear, get moving, and stay steady as you shift toward work that fits who you are now. No vague inspiration. No "just follow your passion." A calm, structured process you can repeat whenever you need to reinvent.
Curriculum
- Module 1: The Cycle (and why career change is rarely one leap)
- Module 2: Find Your Purpose (draft a Purpose Statement that actually guides decisions)
- Module 3: Leverage Your Network (turn relationships into insight and opportunity)
- Module 4: Rebalance, Recharge, Recreate (build conditions where change is sustainable)
- Module 5: Start Creative Experiments (low-risk tests that create real data)
- Module 6: Build Your Portfolio (shape income and identity around your purpose)
- Module 7: Your 90‑Day Plan (turn insight into a simple next chapter you can deliver)
