Avoiding gatekeepers - as much as possible - is the career change strategy I recommend if you are over 40.
But if you've always been an employee, you've literally been indoctrinated to believe you have to get past gatekeepers first (recruiters, hiring managers or faceless AI black holes) if you want to make money (or change work).

I'm here to tell you the world of work has changed!

Rather than rely on just one employer, one paycheque - and on having to get permission from gatekeepers first - you now have direct access to billions of potential clients, buyers and networks - all over the world. 

Hit play to learn how to turn this development to your advantage as a career changer over 40!

Do you feel like your current career is a holding pattern for your real life? Most professionals over 40 have been sold a version of success built on what you get as a result of your work — but it neglects how you actually feel whilst you are doing that work, day after day, year after year. 

Since we'll all be working longer than any generation before us, hit play to discover why focusing on increasing your Career Enjoyment Span isn't just a "nice to have” — it's a superpower AND your true competitive advantage. 

And here's the good news: it's not too late to start enjoying your life and work!

Are you telling yourself you can't just walk away from the career or profession you've built over the last 10-20+ years?

Or do you worry that staying stuck (and unhappy) OR throwing it all away are your only viable options after 40?

Then you are stuck in the "I can't just walk away" trap - let's get you out of there!

In this episode, I take you inside your head and introduce you to the "I've already invested so much, I might as well keep going!" fallacy (also known as the Sunk Cost Fallacy).

I want to help you see why this way of thinking keeps you stuck in a Groundhog Day career or job scenario you already know you don't want any longer.

You'll discover how to make the past 10–20+ years of your work life work for you — as an advantage and a launchpad for your career change — rather than letting them take you prisoner.

Because a successful career change after 40 is NOT about throwing it all away. 

Rather, it's about doing a meaningful and intelligent edit. 

Most people over 40 make their career change much harder than it needs to be. They believe it has to be a matter of all or nothing. That they only get one chance (so they'd better get it right, or they'll fail in public!). Or they're (still) waiting to "feel ready" to take any action whatsoever. As a result, they are exhausted before they even start. 

In a world of work that keeps changing, I recommend thinking about career change in a much more empowering way: It's the #1 future-proofing skill you can develop as a professional over 40. Hit play to learn how that works now. 

What if your real career problem is not your current profession or career — but rather your day-to-day experience of working for someone else (as an employee)?

For a number of professionals over 40, just changing careers and getting a job in that new career is not going to solve the problem. It might even make it worse.

In this episode you'll discover the difference between your work SUBJECT and your work CONTEXT — and why identifying your real problem before you start looking for solutions is key. Let's make sure you don't go from the frying pan to the fire when it comes to your career pain points. Hit play now!

Do your career change options feel limited as a professional over 40? Hit play to discover why the problem isn't a lack of options — it's that you are only allowing yourself to explore 10% of them! Learn why your brain is actively keeping you stuck in that "10% Professional Silo" and why defaulting to "what am I qualified for?" is blocking out your most meaningful and exciting options. Then get ready to both change your thinking and the places you look — and dramatically increase your options as a results. There have never been more career change and business options  for professionals over 40 than now - it's time to focus on those 90%, so you can find or create the right one(s) for you!

Changing careers or starting your own business after 35 can seem hard. But do you know what's also hard?! Staying stuck in a career you hate or no longer enjoy is hard. Working on someone else's dream instead of your own is hard.

Deciding what problems are worth having (as well as what you no longer want to tolerate) is what this episode is all about!

Do you tend to (endlessly) overthink your career change, but never get any solid clarity about it?  

Keep noticing (and worrying about!) problems and risks with your new business or career idea, instead of taking action and making it happen?

Then you are stuck in The Overthinker's Negativity Trap! 

Hit play to learn WHY you keep falling into this trap and HOW you can avoid or escape it - Both vital requirements if you want to (finally) get your career change or own business off the ground! 

Spoiler alert: You will never look at your overthinker self-sabotage tendencies the same way again after listening to this episode. 
But you'll also know the exact questions to ask yourself to quickly escape The Trap if you ever fall into it again. 

Want to discover the portfolio career strategy I use with career change clients who "can't just risk it all"?
 
Are you a professional over 35 with proven skills and experience? 
Then you are a perfect candidate for NOT risking it all, especially financially!

Instead of regarding your background as shackling you to the one job you hate, you can learn to turn it into a financial launch pad for your transition into something new and more meaningful. 

Starting your own business or changing careers does NOT have to mean risking it ALL.
Rather, it's all about intelligent risk management. And about not putting all of your eggs in one basket.

Listen and get ready to change your mind about what's possible after 35 when you know how the world of work really works in the twenty-first century. 

Who is your who? Figuring out who you most want to work with in your new career or business is key. Especially if you feel overwhelmed by too many career change ideas or you keep overthinking the few you do have (and then talk yourself out of them!). 

Hit play to discover how getting clear on their WHO was aha-moment-inducing for two of Rikke's clients - Both professionals over 35 who were completely stuck. 

Get ready to apply what you learn, so you can get focus and clarity too!

Would you love to start your own business, but worry that your age (over 40-ish) and career history will work against you? Hit play to have your assumptions challenged and your career change options increased! 

As opposed to what you might think when you scroll through Instagram or listen to (another) hip, intimidating, 20-something start-up founder, the reality is the older you get (up until the age of 60), the better your chances are of starting and running a successful company (compared to a 20-something!).

Starting your own business is (for many of my clients) the best vehicle for changing careers after 40.  Both in terms of bypassing gatekeepers and avoiding institutionalized ageism - But also because your age is one of your biggest advantages when it comes to the likelihood of you starting something financially viable!

Get ready to do your own thing - Or at least start considering it a realistic and exciting option for someone with your age and background!

What do YOU tend to worry about the most? 

The risks of changing careers or starting your own business? 
Or the risks of staying stuck in that career or job you no longer enjoy? 

Most professionals over 35 completely OVERESTIMATE the (imagined) risks of changing careers and starting their own business - All whilst completely UNDERESTIMATING (or even ignoring) the (very real) risks of staying stuck in a career they don't enjoy. 

If you are following this (rather lopsided) strategy, you are most likely still stuck in that career you don't enjoy, just going through the motions. 

Let's talk about how risky that strategy is! This episode is all about how to turn the very real risks of NOT changing into motivational fuel for finally getting your butt in gear and making that change!

Do you think starting a business is unrealistic for you (as someone who needs a paycheque)? Then you are likely taking advice from people who don't have a proven track record of helping people like you!

Many professionals over 35 are buying into the myth that changing careers has to be a matter of "all or nothing." So they (and maybe you?) do...nothing.  Let's change that! 

I've got 18 years experience of helping people just like you successfully change careers or start that business - That's why I recorded this episode: To share how career change works in the real world for real people (who can't just "risk it" all or "go all in from Day One"). Spoiler alert: You have (way) more options than just that!

Whether you feel curious or scared by the (many!) changes happening in the world of work depends on HOW you choose to think about them. Would you like to go from being intimidated or overwhelmed to feeling excited and open-minded? Hit play to discover TWO powerful mindset shifts I recommend making right now!

Worried about being seen as a newbie if you change careers or start a business after 35? Want practical alternatives to always defaulting to worst-case/failure scenarios whenever you try to think ahead?  This episode will equip you with the tools to engage your sense of curiosity and instill a sense of confidence in yourself and what's ahead. 

The future of work is already here - It's time to think (and act) accordingly!

Are you feeling overworked and undervalued at work?
Losing confidence in yourself and your skills?
Starting to wonder if you even have any viable career change options or the ability to start your own company?

Then you might be stuck in a "Safe Pair Of Hands" job trap - Let's get you out of there (without risking it all or throwing it all away!). 

I often get emails from listeners along the lines of "Help - I've lost confidence in my skills and feel stuck."
...Often followed by a description of what I call the "safe pair of hands" job trap. Where smart people remain stuck for too long in a toxic scenario of over-work and under-recognition...So let's talk about it!

If Imposter Syndrome, loss of confidence, bullying, etc. is an issue for you - This episode WILL help you understand what's really going on at work. And how to start plotting your escape - Starting now!

Are you an aspiring career changer over 35? Worried about having to start from scratch again? 

Hit play to discover the biggest advantage you have as someone who's got more than one or two+ decades of experience in the working world! 

We'll talk about why you never have to go empty-handed into what's next, how to avoid throwing the baby out with the bathwater when leaving a profession behind, and how to talk about what you already have to offer in a manner that's relevant to where you want to go next. As a former HR professional, I have A LOT to say about this (to your benefit!).  

Perfectionists give up earlier and more easily! Have you noticed?

I almost (cheekily;) called this new episode: "Why Perfectionists Give Up On Their Career Change Earlier On Than Others" ​Or "How (Toxic) Perfectionism Can Ruin Your Chances Of Ever Launching Your Own Business"

No kidding - This is so important to talk about. Here's why:

Do you identify as a self-oriented perfectionist (i.e. you are the one imposing excessively high standards on yourself)?

Then you might be surprised to discover research shows this can get in the way of reaching your goals or finishing what you start!

If you've (already) observed that your perfectionism tendencies are sabotaging rather than helping your career change, this episode will introduce a powerful antidote that works in your favour instead!

Ever heard of Stockholm Syndrome?  What if I told you a similar thing occurs amongst a big number of professionals over 35 who know they really ought to get going with that career change...BUT they just can't seem to leave that job/boss they hate so much behind?!
​Yep - Job Stockholm Syndrome is a thing and this episode is all about how to assess a highly toxic situation like that (IF that's where you find yourself stuck). 
If you are looking for a much deeper level of motivation for your career transition - This is the episode for you!

Do you feel torn between staying put in the job/career you don't enjoy ("not risky"!) OR making a big career change ("risky"!)? 

If so, then you are likely still stuck (in that job/career you don't enjoy)!

Why? Because approaching your career change in such dramatic "Black and white"/"All or nothing" terms is frankly limiting your options. You are not alone in doing this though - That's why I wanted to dedicate an episode to what can seem like a really hard and scary question: Is it too risky to change careers after 45? (or 35+!). Hit play to discover a completely different way of thinking about your (work) life starting now!

If you've always worked for someone else then you are likely sabotaging your career change without even realizing it! That's because you might have developed what I call the "Employee Mindset."

And it's really important to be aware of how that might negatively impact how you think about what opportunities are/aren't available to you as a career changer over 35 - Whether you want to start your own business or not!

Hit play on this new episode to discover how you might be making it harder for yourself (and what to do instead)!

Are you (still) trying to find that one perfect idea, so you can (finally!) change careers or start that business? 

Have you (already) spent years down the rabbit hole of idea hunting?
Hoping to find or (somehow?) come across THE perfect one IF you just keep looking for long enough? 

If that strategy hasn't worked for you so far, then why do you keep looking? 
I bet you even feel anxious and overwhelmed as you keep hunting for "just one more idea"?! ;)  

Hit play on this episode to learn why the one perfect idea doesn't exist ("out there"), why you already have enough (good enough) ideas and how to start testing and experimenting with them - So you can (finally!) create a career or business that's just perfect for you. 

Yep - the "one more idea" rabbit hole is endless - Let's get you out of there and into meaningful, creative career change action mode instead!

Have you fallen into a procrastination-shaped hole with your career change or business plans?     

 I've noticed a real tendency amongst aspiring career changers over 35 who put their career change on hold during the COVID-19 pandemic over 3 years ago: They  are STILL  stuck in careers or jobs they hate and STILL not creating a career or business to look forward to instead. 
Groundhog Day, anyone?!

 This is a frank and honest episode designed to help you nail your transition in an ever-evolving world where COVID-19 in hindsight almost seems like the warm-up band.

Make sure you listen  if you want to understand why waiting and procrastination are such pernicious self-sabotage patterns and how to (finally) get going with your transition once and for all!

Do you keep overwhelming yourself with too many career change ideas? Or overthinking the few you have until you kill them off or end up in analysis paralysis? Then hit play on this episode right away!

Are you stuck in your career change process? Or not moving forward with starting your own business? Then you are not making enough decisions or experimenting (frequently) enough - Yep!

But don't fret - I'm not talking about big, scary, crazy-risky decisions or actions! Listen to  discover why it's the smaller, more frequent decisions and actions you really want to get cracking with to build your transition muscles and get unstuck. 

It's time to get out of your head - This episode will show you how!

What if you were ALREADY in your worst case scenario? What if you stopped wasting so much time and energy on distracting yourself with what might or might not happen if you were you to change careers or start that business? What if you focused A LOT MORE on creating your BEST case scenario instead? 

You'll never view your career change experience the same way after you've listened to this episode - Get ready to discover how to assess and handle even your biggest fears and why you are likely worried about the wrong kind of worst case scenarios!

Are you worried about failing and regretting it IF you were to change careers or start that business? But are you also stuck in a  career or job you don't/no longer enjoy?  Then this episode will help you get unstuck!

Hit play to discover what the biggest regret of career changers is and how you can actively decide what regrets you DON'T want to have - Both in the near future AND at the end of your life .

This is an episode that deals with some of the biggest questions you'll ever have to face in your work life - If you are looking for a more meaningful approach to decision-making, don't miss this one!

Would you love to start your own business but can’t just “quit your job and go all in from day one”?

Don’t worry – You have other (more realistic) options when it comes to starting your own business after 35!

The great news is that not only do you NOT have to quit your job first in order to start your business (and risk all of your savings/kids/family/partner/sanity in the process – Phew ;).

As a matter of fact your can use the very job or profession you want to leave behind to power your first business!

Get ready to feel fired up about what’s possible for you – Even if right now starting your own business can seem like a far-fetched dream.

Hit play to discover the only thing to focus on this year IF you want to make sure your career change (finally!) happens. Many people overcomplicate how they approach a new year. Or overwhelm themselves with way too many ideas, goals and projects.
Some might even wonder why you should bother planning ahead if you don't know what you want yet.  Do you recognise yourself in any of those? 
 
In this episode, you'll discover the exact differences between those who will make their transition happen this year and those who will keep putting it on hold or being distracted (again). 

Who will YOU choose to be?

Do you feel intimidated by gatekeepers when you think about moving into a different career or starting your own business? Or worry that your CV/resume will forever label you as a lawyer/finance/IT /corporate professional? And hence dramatically limit your career change options outside of that?!

Why do you keep dabbling? Even when you know it will sabotage rather than support your career change efforts? There are actually several “good” reasons why you might choose dabbling over committed action if you are a perfectionist or someone who fears failure.
So let’s talk about those reasons, so you can gain a deep insight into the damaging psychological tricks this sneaky form of self sabotage (dabbling) is playing on you. And how it’s ensuring you stay stuck. So you can make a more empowered choice – Again and again.
This episode is a real eye opener and a must-listen if you want to leave dabbling behind and actually change careers or start that business instead.

Confidence issues can be a real show stopper for career changers - Have you noticed? Hit play for some instant first aid! What if I told you that low levels of career confidence in your current career (the one you want to leave behind) have very little to do with what's possible (or not) going forward? And that low levels of career confidence can actually be used to motivate you to get cracking with creating a career or business that feels much more like you?! 
Equally - If you are an aspiring or new business owner who's prone to "compare" yourself to more experienced people in your new field and hence "despair," I've also included a first aid remedy for you (instant application recommended!). 

​If you are not enjoying the career you've been in for years, then basing your career transition on that (by asking "What Can I Get With What I've Got?") is NOT the best place to start - Hit play to discover a much more powerful way to approach the career change process (so you don't limit your options before you even get started)! 
This episode of The Career Change Podcast is dedicated to those of you who've been employees and in the same line of work for years - And who've therefore been trained to think like an employee and think about the world of work in a certain (disempowering)  way - It's time to question your assumptions!
​

As a mid-career professional you've likely worked very hard to get to where you are today. And even though you know deep down you need a big change, you're likely held back from making one because you are  afraid of  "throwing it all away" if you change careers at your age. Hit play on this episode if you want to discover how to decide what stays and what goes (because clearly something needs to go, right?!). You'll also learn why your age is a massive advantage and why you want to get started now rather than later!

Do you keep putting your career change or business plans on hold? Find yourself reverting back to dabbling and never getting any real results? This episode will help you change that - Once and for all! 

Many aspiring career changers never move past motivational "hacks" or fluffy Instagram quotes (and therefore never escape the dreaded "start, stop, start, stop cycle").  Listen to this episode if you want to learn how to access and create a MUCH deeper level of urgency, so you can STOP faffing about and (finally) get started AND keep going!

Are you afraid of making THE wrong decision when it comes to your career change or first business? Then you are likely falling for what I call "The One Big Decision Fallacy" and are likely feeling an enormous amount of pressure and worry! (am I right?! ;). 

Hit play on this episode if you want to discover why there is NO "one big decision" to be made (or messed up) when it comes to changing careers in the real world (phew!) - As well as what you want to start doing instead (right away) to get cracking with your transition and with decision making.

This is for you whether you don't trust yourself to make any decisions or you worry about making THE wrong decision - Get ready for a big sigh of relief! I'm excited to share an empowering, proven and reality-checked approach to decision-making with you in this episode!

Should you should turn your passion into a business? This episode will help you skip past the fluff and hype in order to figure out what's right for YOU and your unique circumstances. 

Whether you should base your business on your passion is important to figure out UP FRONT. Why?  Because not all passions are created equal when it comes to whether you can actually turn it into a business you'll also enjoy AND that's also profitable.

Listen to this episode to discover two highly practical strategies for figuring out if YOUR passion is a good candidate for being turned into a business...or not!

Perfectionists have a MUCH harder time changing careers or starting their own business - Have you noticed?
If you suffer from toxic perfectionism, you are likely (still) stuck in that job or career you no longer enjoy. Why? Because you are (still) waiting for the perfect business idea, perfect career or perfect passion to (somehow) show up or for you to (somehow) find it?
Sounds familiar? Then hit play on this episode right now! 

You'll discover why and how you are using your perfectionism as the perfect self-sabotage and delay mechanism and (most importantly) what to do instead. Learning how to effectively get a handle on perfectionism is a key part of a successful career transition - Especially if you are a corporate professional over 35! 

This is definitely one of those episodes where you'll feel like I'm inside of your head right away - But you'll also finish it with a sense of relief knowing you have other options (and how to start taking advantage of them). 

Do you tend to focus on the (often imagined) risks of changing careers whilst totally ignoring the (often very real) risks of staying stuck in the career/job you no longer enjoy? Have you ever taken the time to challenge whether your risks are just imagined risks or a real threat? And might you be ignoring that right now you might  already be risking just as much (or more) by staying stuck?!  
Want to access a much deeper level of motivation and get real about what's truly at stake (the longer you stay stuck instead of changing)? Then this episode is for you!

Are you stuck in a holding pattern with your career change?  Maybe you put your transition on hold due to the pandemic? And here you are 18+ months down the line (still) waiting and (still) worrying? 

I've been helping people change careers and start businesses - Even during their most personally wonky and historically unpredictable times over the last 16 years - Not just during the current pandemic - And the highly practical approach you'll discover in this episode is one of the reasons why they were able to KEEP going. 

In this episode you'll discover why HOW you worry and WHAT you choose to worry about (or not) is a key differentiating factor in whether your transition will happen (or not). No matter whats's going in in the world at the same time. 

In short - This is an episode that will teach you how to worry constructively (as opposed to destructively). 

Hit play if you would like help getting out of that (exhausting) holding pattern - And learn how to make your worrying worthwhile instead of keeping you stuck!

When, how and why you quit your job can make or break your career transition - Especially for those of us over 35! In this key episode, Rikke will walk you through the 3 most common job scenarios aspiring career changers and new entrepreneurs find themselves in - You'll learn what has worked for her clients in terms of maximising their chances of career change success (and minimizing the risks!). 

This is a mini-Masterclass packed full of real-life tested strategies and frank advice - So make sure you listen at least once - You'll also discover why "Should I Quit My Job?" is not actually a helpful question (and what to focus on instead).  Let's get real!

Are you crazy for wanting a career change if you already have (on paper) a great profession or job with money/reputation/"safety" baked into it?

 Should you just be grateful for what you already have instead of going for something you don't even know will work out? 
Or should you focus on finding or creating a career or business you'll truly love instead? 

In this episode, you'll discover why this does not have to be a case of all or nothing and why what kind of  day to day life you really want (and when) is the real litmus test for answering this question (no matter what societal standards or your mum might think ;). 

It's time to bust the myth that you have to be confident if you want to change careers or become an entrepreneur. So if you feel like confidence  issues are holding you back, this is the episode for you! Why? Because you'll discover that confidence is NOT a requirement for getting started with your career change or own business. 

The majority of the clients I've helped successfully transition into a new line of work or their own business over the last 16+ years would NOT have described themselves as the "confident type" either when they first started their career transition. Hit play to discover what they focused on instead, so you can get cracking too!

Networking makes a lot of otherwise smart and sociable people extremely uncomfortable - Let's change that! 

Done right (i.e. in a non-sleazy way!) it's one of the most powerful tools for fast-tracking your journey into a new career or business. 

But it's vital that you network like a career changer or new entrepreneur - NOT like someone who hates their job - This episode will show you how to do that.

It really bothers me that most aspiring career changers and entrepreneurs are only familiar with the old-school, sleazy kind of networking. Especially since we humans are wired to connect AND enjoy doing it! 

Hit play to discover a much more empowering and meaningful way to make friends instead (whether you are an introvert or an extrovert - I've got you!). 

If you are going through an uncomfortable time in your career transition - And might even wonder if it's all worth it - This episode is for you. Let's talk about how you can keep going!

A lot of aspiring career changers over 35 have spent years inside a professional career comfort zone (or even on auto pilot mode) - So when you start to put yourself out there in a new field or want to transition into becoming an entrepreneur - You'll encounter new situations, challenges and people  who might make you feel uncomfortable and uncertain. So let's talk about that!

In this episode of The Career Change Podcast I'll share concrete ideas for how to handle the emotional rollercoaster part of the journey to starting the right business or transitioning into a new line of work (spoiler alert: it's not all unicorns and rainbows...). 

Most importantly though - You'll discover concrete ideas for what to do when you wonder if it's all really worth it.

How much time and energy do you spend (or have spent) overthinking your career change or business ideas (or lack thereof)?
And do you actually find overthinking helpful? (...I thought not! ;).

Hit play and in less than 20 minutes, you'll discover two of the most powerful tools you can use next time you get caught in an overthinking loop. So you can actually do something concrete and meaningful with your time and energy instead. As opposed to just getting stuck in the same (blooming useless) thought loops over and over again (ahem).

Stop overthinking - Hit Play instead!
​Just think of all the time and energy you could  free up...

Worried about having to retrain completely if you want to change careers or start a new business? Still stuck in that profession you've totally outgrown because you  are worried about not being "qualified" to do anything else? Over 35 or worried you've left it too late? This episode is for you!

You might be surprised to discover that most of my career change and entrepreneurship clients over the last 15+ years did NOT have to go back to university full-time in order to get cracking with their career transition. In this episode, I share my 3 key  principles that made this possible for them.  

What if it were your own (mistaken/out-dated;) assumptions about how career change really works after 35 that are holding you back the most? What if the new world of work is actually offering more, rather than less ways to transition into something new? And what if your age and work track record so far could actually be used as a starting block, as opposed to being a liability? Oh and there's more ;) Hit play!
