EP 204 | Breaking the Patterns That Hold Us Back

from The Confident Podcast Hosted by The Confident Podcast

What if the biggest obstacle to your dream career isn't your skills or experience, but the limiting beliefs you've carried for years without realizing it? Stacey Gorin, an executive coach at Ernst & Young, spent 20 years climbing the corporate ladder at IBM before discovering her true calling, then another decade actively pursuing it. Her journey reveals a truth many of us face: we often follow paths that don't align with our core values, strengths, or passions. The breakthrough moment came when someone finally asked her the right questions, helping her recognize the disconnect between her technical role and her natural talents for connecting with and supporting others. This conversation dives deep into the PowerUp framework Stacey developed– a practical approach to overcoming the limiting behaviors that hold professionals back.
