It happens to almost every professional at some point: you know you’re ready for something different in your career, but you don’t know exactly what comes next. Maybe you’ve outgrown your current role, feel uninspired by your industry, or crave more purpose in your work. You’re not unhappy—but you’re not fulfilled either.
This gray area can be uncomfortable. It’s easy to feel like you’re staying stuck, and without career clarity, you may find yourself applying randomly to job postings, browsing job sites without a plan, or second-guessing your career direction.
