Finding Your Dream Career: Insights from a Career Strategist guest Stephanie Gillies

Season 4 Episode 142

This week on Unpacked we are chatting with Stephanie Gillies, a Career Strategist with a mission to guide you toward a fulfilling career. Stephanie's journey is nothing short of inspiring—having navigated through 32 jobs in 15 years, she intimately understands the challenges of finding the right path. Growing up in a culture that emphasized a linear career trajectory, Stephanie felt the pressure to discover her lifelong passion, leading to a cycle of indecision.

After pursuing a Bachelor of Social Work Degree and delving into the non-profit sector, Stephanie found herself overworked and underpaid, feeling stuck in a role with no room for growth. The turning point came during the pandemic when she was laid off, prompting her leap into entrepreneurship.

Certified as a Resume Writer and Interview Coach, Stephanie has since written over 1000 resumes and coached countless individuals through career transitions. In this episode, you'll learn valuable insights into overcoming career challenges, gaining confidence, and aligning your decisions with your life's purpose. Stephanie's passion for helping others discover their authentic selves and pursue their dreams shines through, making this a must-listen conversation.
