Career “test-runs” and calming your inner critic (with Stephanie Hayes)
In this episode, I’m sharing a special conversation with my mentor, friend, and business consultant, Stephanie Hayes. Stephanie specializes in building businesses from the ground up by focusing on creating assets that allow small business owners to earn income and serve in a way that feels aligned and fulfilling to them. Even though she is technically like a “business coach/consultant”, many of her clients say that working with her is more like having a business partner. What she’s really amazing at doing is truly seeing the talent and vision in her clients before THEY even see it…and then finding a way to pull it out of them so they can create something that “feeds their brain” and keeps them excited about the work that they do. Stephanie and I have been working on creating a program called the School of Clinical Leadership which is launching in September 2022; which is a program designed to guide pediatric clinicians through creating a customized career path aligned with their strengths and their mission. Over the past month or so, we’ve been documenting the progress of this program development in a weekly series called Live Til Launch; and I wanted to share one of our episodes on the podcast. In this episode, we talk about the conception of the “micro-experiment” strategy and why it’s an essential part of the way I mentor clinicians going through a career transition. We also talk about the internal struggle we all go through when we’re doing something new that pushes us; how I’ve worked through that personally, and how to tame feelings of self-doubt when you’re getting out of your comfort zone. In this episode, I mentioned the Clinical Leadership Roundtable, an ongoing event for pediatric clinicians that want to plan a career path that finally allows you to serve in a way that feels aligned and impactful. You can join the Clinical Leadership Roundtable here. I also mentioned the School of Clinical Leadership, my program designed to help clinicians launch the next stage of their career. You can learn more about the program here. Finally, to connect with Stephanie and learn more about what she does, connect with her on LinkedIn here, follow her on YouTube here, or check out her website here. The De Facto Leaders podcast was formerly the “Are they 18 yet?®” podcast. As of November 2022, the name of the show has changed, and we’ve shifted from a focus on parenting to a focus on supporting clinicians and educators to design effective services for kids (but parents are still welcome to listen). Episodes published before November 24, 2022 will still contain some of our old branding.
