Determination and Serendipity to Become a Virtual Patient Trainer #205 Jan 04, 2021

Show notes

Description:

This week, I have a great interview with Sarah Harford. Sarah is a member of the Career Pivot membership community and was recently hired as a virtual patient trainer for a medical device company. By the way, this is a position in a job that didn't exist before COVID.

She had been employed as an occupational therapist in a psychiatric hospital that left her stressed out and really needed a change. I want you to hear her story about her very convoluted journey during the time of COVID. She had lots of opportunities to just give up and stay as an occupational therapist, but she didn't.

In the end, a bit of serendipity happened. More importantly, she was open to it. She landed a position that did not exist before the pandemic and it married multiple skills from being an occupational therapist and from her previous career as a massage therapist. It's a great story I want you to hear and hopefully be inspired by.

What is Your Mindset Right Now? Are Ready to Change It? #204 Dec 14, 2020

Show notes

Description:

This will be the last podcast episode of 2020 which for many of us has been one dumpster fire of a year. Therefore it is time to plan for 2021 and I have kicked off my annual podcast survey. If you would be to take the survey, I would be most appreciative.

I will be planning out the podcast schedule for 2021 during the month of December and the first half of January, and I would very much appreciate any feedback you can give me.

In this week's episode, I have Diann Wingert from Diann Wingert coaching. Diann is a former licensed therapist and now coaches entrepreneurs. Her tag list "My Jam" is helping others like me be successful in work and life. She also has The Driven Woman podcast.

I know Diann from the Smart Passive Income Pro online community where we both are members. I wanted to finish out the year discussing mindsets. We have all been thrown out of our comfort zones in the last 9 months and I thought this would be a good topic to discuss before the holidays.

The Career Pivot membership mastermind gets mentioned in the article, How to Build a Home Business Support Group, published on NextAvenue.org.

Happy Thanksgiving from the Repurpose Your Career Podcast Nov 23, 2020

Show notes

Description:

This will be a short and sweet episode. There will be show notes blog post on the Career Pivot website.

Given the explosion of COVID-19 cases in North America and Europe and the audience who listens to this podcast are largely over 50 years of age I am really concerned about what this next month will bring.

I feel very blessed that I live in the state of Jalisco in Mexico. A little over a week ago we came out of a 2 week lockdown where all businesses were closed on weekends and all businesses closed at 7 PM each weekday.

It has seemed to work as numbers are trending downward and it seems to have encouraged good behavior as it relates to mask-wearing and social distancing. From a personal perspective, this was relatively non-intrusive in most people's lives.

There will be no episode next Monday and I will kick off the annual podcast survey with the next regular episode on December 7th.

I want to wish everyone a very safe and happy thanksgiving from the Repurpose Your Career Podcast and Career Pivot.

4th Anniversary with the Best of 2020 Episodes #200 Nov 02, 2020

Show notes

Description:

This marks the 4th anniversary of this podcast. I started this podcast in late October of 2016 to support the launch of the 2nd edition of "Repurpose Your Career - A practical guide of the 2nd half of life" which was published in the spring of 2017. I never imagined to be doing this podcast 4 years later and a quarter of a million downloads.

I started 2020 like any other year with a set of guests that I thought would inform and inspire you. Of course, then COVID-19 hit us across the head like a 2 by 4 and I changed focus to topics that I thought you would find helpful in surviving and thriving through this pandemic.

I picked 7 episodes that I will play snippets from and I hope that you will go back and listen to again and again.

These episodes are as follows:
