If you’ve ever looked at the state of the world and thought, I want to do something that actually matters, but had no idea where to start, this episode is for you.In this conversation, I’m joined by Dolores Rio, a Professional Certified Coach and former humanitarian leader with 23 years in global public health, to break down what it actually looks like to build a meaningful career right now.Dolores spent over two decades working on the frontlines of global health, helping design and deliver programs that addressed everything from child malnutrition to large-scale public health crises, shaping systems that determine whether people have access to food, care, and basic survival.Now, she helps women who feel called to something more figure out what that actually looks like and how to move toward it without starting over.We get into how to tell the difference between reacting to everything going on in the world and feeling a genuine, lasting pull toward impact, what social impact careers actually look like today, and how to move in that direction without starting over. 🔥 What we get into→ how to tell the difference between reacting to the world and a real, consistent pull toward meaningful work→ why “meaningful work” doesn’t have to mean nonprofits or NGOs and what other paths actually exist→ how social impact careers are shifting right now and where new opportunities are opening up→ how to translate your existing skills into impact-focused roles without starting over→ what hiring managers are actually looking for when you’re coming from a different background→ why having conversations before applying will save you time, energy, and wrong moves→ how to think about purpose and pay in a way that actually reflects your quality of life→ how to use the Five Ps framework to define what you actually want from your career→ where future demand is heading including climate, healthcare, AI, education, and more⏱ Timestamps00:00 Intro00:53 Meaningful Work Questions01:50 Meet Dolores Rio03:28 Despair vs Purpose09:35 Defining Impact11:27 How Social Impact Work is Changing16:43 New Career Paths20:40 Transitioning from Corporate23:24 Networking Before Applying25:57 Purpose vs Pay29:37 Quality of Life30:57 Impact Moments34:16 First Steps36:04 Five Ps Framework37:46 Future Demand45:25 Closing🚀 If you’re ready to take the next stepIf this conversation made you realize you want something different, but you’re not sure what that looks like yet:Join my free masterclass:👉 Start Your Career Change in 3 Simple StepsI’ll walk you through how to:→ get clear on what you actually want→ identify roles that actually fit you→ move forward without starting overConnect with Career Coach Dolores Rio:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/doloresrio/Connect with Career Coach Theresa White:LinkedIn: @Theresa A.
