What does it feel like to do what you love on stage in front of a ton of people? In this episode of Career Relaunch, Lani Love will explain how she relaunched her career from working at an advertising agency to becoming a professional deejay.  Lani shares her thoughts on how to evaluate which opportunities to pursue and how to balance your career and family interests. During the Mental Fuel segment, I’ll discuss the importance of giving yourself some credit, especially when you feel like you’re constantly falling short.

Key Career Insights

1. At some point, you have to learn to trust yourself and give yourself credit for all your accomplishments rather than being so hard on yourself.
2. There may be times in your career when you have to take a step back in order to focus on more important things in your life like family or health. That’s okay.
3. Some opportunities that seem really perfect for you may simply not end up working out, but you have to trust that another opportunity can and will come up if you’re patient and persistent enough.
