Description
If you're a job seeker or mid-career professional feeling stuck, exhausted, or uncertain about your next move, Designing Your Next Chapter: A Tactical Guide to Cultivating Your Season of Purpose offers a clearer, more humane way forward.
The modern job search isn't just tactical -- it's psychological. Long hiring cycles, AI résumé filters, hidden job markets, and constant rejection have made career transitions more emotionally demanding than ever. Traditional advice -- "apply more," "network harder," "optimize your résumé" -- no longer works on its own.
This book gives you a practical, reflective framework for career development that prioritizes clarity, self-trust, and emotional resilience alongside strategy.
You'll learn how to:
Name your current career season (Recovery, Growth, Impact, Reinvention, or Integration) so your job search aligns with your real capacity -- not your anxiety
Set goals that feel like you, starting with how you want your work to feel, not just what you want to achieve
Replace overwhelming big goals like "find a job" with powerful micro-moves that build real momentum
Craft a personal North Star to guide your job search, networking, and career decisions
Redefine success for this season so you stop punishing yourself with unrealistic expectations
Design your ideal workday before chasing the "perfect" job title
Make clearer decisions about which roles to pursue -- and which to walk away from
Rebuild confidence after layoffs, ghosting, and months of applications
Through real-world examples, reflective prompts, and a six-step career design workbook, this book blends practical job search strategy with deep emotional insight. It speaks to professionals who are burned out, pivoting careers, or quietly questioning whether their current path still fits.
This is not a hustle manual. It is a roadmap for thoughtful career reinvention, meaningful work, and long-term professional fulfillment.
If you are navigating a job search, mid-career transition, or professional reset, Designing Your Next Chapter will help you move from drift to design -- with clarity, courage, and care.
