This week’s Dear Lorraine question is: “I’m looking to step out of corporate and I’m pondering my next steps.  What would your advice be to me?”

I love this question as I’ve worked with many mentees on exactly this challenge!  While I did answer my listener’s question, this will be a super helpful episode for anyone who’s currently at a crossroads in their life or career, or is feeling that flicker of curiosity about what life could be.

In my response, I cover:
The difference between an “away from” goal and a “towards” goal
The set of “heart” questions to ask yourself to help you uncover your purpose 
The set of “head” questions to ask yourself in order to identify your purpose
The concept of “runway” and how it helps decide next steps 
Options to start a more “off-the-rack” business
The really fucking sad story that underlines everything I share in this episode

I mention my brilliant mentee Michelle Kvello’s Corporate To Consultant program, which steps you through the process of leaving corporate and going out on your own.  You can find it right here: corporatetoconsultant.com.au.
