What happens when the career and pace you once managed no longer fit your changing capacity?

In this episode, I’m speaking with Narelle Vigor, Registered Professional Career Counsellor and founder of Soul Compass, about burnout, identity shifts and the challenges women face during perimenopause and midlife.

We explore why many capable women feel they can no longer keep up, how hormonal changes, sleep disruption, brain fog and caregiving impact confidence, and why pushing harder isn’t the answer.

Narelle also shares why more women are turning to self-employment, the risks involved, and how small “two-degree shifts” can help you regain energy and clarity without overhauling your life.

This conversation is a reminder that honouring your capacity isn’t failure, it’s an opportunity to create work that supports who you are now.
