Summary

I first connected with today’s guest Rachel Schofield on LinkedIn. I was impressed with her work and she was impressed with mine. Our exchange led to her telling me about her book The Career Change Guide: Five Steps to Finding Your Dream Job which I would say is a timely topic. Rachel had a serious career change herself, after spending 20 years as a successful BBC journalist she became a career coach. Initially, her focus was on helping women who were returning to work after...

0:00.0	I am so glad you could join us. I'm your host Mo Gaudet. This podcast is nothing more than a conversation between two good friends sharing inspiring life stories and perhaps
0:16.3	some nuggets of wisdom along the way.
0:20.3	This is your invitation to slow down with us.
0:25.7	Welcome to slow more. Welcome back. Today I have a guest that will talk about a topic that is so timely.
0:41.0	I don't know if she knew it was going to be that timely when she was writing her book, but I basically connected with today's guest Rachel Schofield on LinkedIn. You basically connect, I'm impressed with her work, she's
0:56.2	impressed with my work, and then she said, Penguin must have sent you a copy of your
1:01.5	book. Of course they didn't because I didn't have an
1:04.6	address for such a long time. Anyway, so they might have sent it to some address that
1:09.2	didn't arrive to me. So I said what was the book about and it is the guide to career change what a timely
1:16.5	topic and there is probably nobody better able to talk about it than Rachel because Rachel had a very serious
1:26.3	career change in her life. She started her career in the BBC as a reporter
1:31.4	and a presenter, did that for quite a bit of time very
1:34.2	successfully I may say and then suddenly at a point in her life like most of us do
1:39.1	said that's it done I am going to shift to helping others. So she became a coach on career
1:47.4	change, you know basically helping people succeed, focused passionate
1:51.5	specifically about women and women's career and women at the workplace
1:55.5	but of course helping everyone and then because she's so good at what she was doing she was
2:00.8	recording a podcast a while back and then a publisher said you have to write this down and that's where the guide to career change came to existence.
2:10.0	It is not what you expect a book about career change is. I felt looking at it, that it was a bit of an introspection book. It was about self-change that would lead to career change and I think for my
2:26.2	audiences here on slow mow that's probably a topic that is very very highly
2:31.3	encouraged. Rachel I am delighted that we finally meet. I'm so
2:36.1	grateful that you reached out on LinkedIn and that we know each other now so thank
	...
