The Career Flipper PodcastAuthor: Jenny Dempsey
Thinking about making a career change but have no idea where to start? Youre not alone. Welcome to The Career Flipper, the podcast for anyone wondering, "What else is out there?". Im Jenny Dempseyyour host and a fellow career flipper. I didnt plan on changing careers, but after years in customer experience and a surprise layoff, I found myself asking, "How do people actually make big career moves? And more importantly, how do they keep going when it gets messy, overwhelming, and scary?" That curiosity led me to just ask people who have done it. To have real, honest conversations with people from all over the world whove made all kinds of career flips. Whether they started over in a new industry, turned a side hustle into a full-time gig, or made a total 180 to do something they actually love, their stories gave me ideas, inspiration, and even a little courage - so I figured they might give that to you too.
