Ok, So You Want a Better Job? Own It!
 
 So you've been stuck at the same job for a couple of years and you're ready to move on. Maybe you feel as if you're underpaid, or maybe your executive role just doesn't inspire you enough.
Whatever your reasoning, the fact is you've been at this job for a while and it's time to look elsewhere.
During this episode, I will talk about owning that job. You should ensure that you align your expectations in a way that you want your career to be based upon. Stop thinking about what others think is right for you but prioritize yourself.
Knowing what you really want helps you ensure that you secure the right career where you are both comfortable and happy working.
