Perspectives - With Maree Burgess

Imagine being told your role has been made redundant. The fact is difficult enough. Then your mind begins to add a story: “They don’t value me,” “I’m too old,” or “Everything I’ve worked for has disappeared.” Those thoughts can feel like facts, even though they’re interpretations of what happened.In this episode of Perspectives, we replay the same situation with a different first thought and notice what becomes possible. You’ll try a simple exercise with something happening in your own life: write down the facts, the story you’ve attached to them, and another possible story. Whether you’re facing redundancy, a missed promotion or a change at home, the aim is to give yourself more than one way to see it—and more choice in how you respond.Hit Follow so you don't miss an episode.And if you're ready to create lasting change, not just in how you lead, but in how you experience your work and your life...I'd love to help.I work with ambitious women leaders who are ready to move beyond overwhelm, build genuine confidence, and lead with clarity, influence and calm.Contact and book a Discovery Call with me at:www.mareeburgess.com

Have you read the books, listened to the podcasts, made the lists and still found yourself asking, “What should I do?” When you’re feeling stuck in your career or unsure about a change, it’s easy to assume you need more advice, confidence or qualifications before you can move forward. But what if an old belief is shaping the question you keep asking? In this episode of Perspectives, we look at the sentence “Before I can do that, I need to…” and gently question what comes next. You’ll explore how asking “How do I want work to fit into my life now?” can open up different possibilities from “What job should I do next?” Perhaps the next step isn’t finding one more solution. It’s noticing what you might need to see differently. Hit Follow so you don't miss an episode. And if you're ready to create lasting change, not just in how you lead, but in how you experience your work and your life... I'd love to help.

You know something has to change, but you have no idea what to do next. Maybe you’re exhausted by work, carrying too much for everyone else, or adjusting to a change you didn’t choose. Or maybe you are on the edge of burnout, facing redundancy, or children leaving home, or you're caring for parents. When you reach that fork in the road, it’s tempting to pressure yourself to find the right answer right away.
