EP 84: Should Your Career Change Prioritize Passion or Skill? Answer These 5 Questions [Coaching Call]

Your career feels stuck between what you're skilled at and what you're passionate about—safe corporate roles with proven track records, or meaningful work that actually energizes you but feels risky.

And somehow you're still supposed to find work-life balance, maintain financial stability, and be a present mom?

This episode is your career clarity roadmap.

I'm walking you through the exact 5 questions I use in my coaching practice to help high-achieving moms navigate the passion versus skill dilemma without feeling confused, lost, or desperate to find purpose again.

From identifying when you feel most energized to evaluating what skills people actually pay you for, these are the strategic questions that will help you find meaningful work that doesn't burn you out, shift your career to fit your life as a mom, and move forward with confidence and clarity.

Why the PASSION vs. SKILL debate is a false choice—and what to focus on instead
The Ikigai framework adapted specifically for working mothers
