292: [Mid-Career Series] What Got You Tenure Won't Get You to Full (Re-Release EP 97)

My Mid-Career Series is all about redefining success after tenure and building a career that feels as meaningful as it looks on paper. In this segment, I share one of the hardest truths about the academic journey — what got you here won't get you there. I explore how the habits, priorities, and systems that helped you earn tenure may actually hold you back from becoming a full professor or advancing in new directions. If you've been feeling like you're working just as hard but not making meaningful progress. Or, if you're wondering why your post-tenure years feel less clear than the path that got you here, this episode is for you. I share insights from my own experience and from coaching hundreds of scholars through this exact phase of their careers, helping you see where your energy might be better spent and what needs to evolve as you move forward. It's time to rethink your mid-career strategy, make space for the next stage of your scholarly life, and get clear on how to achieve your academic mission without burning out.
