  In this Sara Solo Show, Sara discusses all the ways that career change and realizing one's life work is like dating in hopes of meeting one's life partner. And, if we take what we already know about dating and apply it to career change, the whole process can be so much more intuitive to us.   Sara discusses: Her upcoming urban hike in the Seattle area, "Women in the Woods: Walking the Path of Personal a Professional Satisfaction" Her interviews with Self-Care Coach a Massage Therapist, Kristen Jawad Episode 003: From Education to Massage with Kristen Jawad Episode 045: Career Catch-Up Convo with Massage Therapist and Self-Care Coach Kristen Jawad Ways that career change is like dating: 1. You can't rush the process. 2. We often overstay something that's not working. 3. You’re not going to recognize “the one” through reading a description online; you’re going to have to meet in-person. 4. Even though you need to meet in-person to recognize “the one,” it’ll do you good to give some thought to what you want so you’ll know it when you experience it. 5. They may check all the boxes on paper, and still not be "the one." 6. You don’t have to wait until you know exactly what you’re looking for to put yourself out there. 7. The path of obligation doesn’t lead to true love. 8. No sense in twisting yourself into a pretzel to be a person you think everyone is going to want. 9. You're going to face rejection at some point. 10. Your love won’t be exactly like what you pictured.
