Back to EpisodesEp #10 - How to Break Your 'MBA Brain' & Go After What You REALLY Want in Your Career
Description
Feeling more confused & less fulfilled about your career post-MBA than you were going in?
Thinking about going back to school & getting an MBA but wondering if it's *really* worth it?
Constantly comparing yourself (& your resume) to everyone in your Section, Cluster or Cohort & thinking you're not as good as all your other MBA classmates?
Whether you have an MBA, are getting your MBA right now or are considering going back to school, you don't want to miss this week's episode.
Join my good friends, fellow coaches & MBAs Michelle Yu (Duke 2016) and Sara Lim (INSEAD 2019) to talk about what it takes to break out of 'MBA brain' & go after what you REALLY want.
We're sharing our own stories about what we had to learn & - more importantly - UNLEARN during our MBA journeys & as we left our highly sought-after post-MBA careers in banking, private equity, consulting & tech to create the careers & lives we truly wanted.
We also talk about how coaching played a vital role in helping each of us manage our 'MBA brains' to:
- Figure out what we want & develop the confidence to go after it
- Manage the fear of failure & judgment from others & do something that's different from "the norm"
- Overcome "compare & despair" syndrome with MBA classmates & colleagues
- Learn how to ditch self-doubt & Impostor Syndrome & let go of the things that were holding us back
