Career Unicorns - Spark Your JoyAuthor: Samorn Selim
I'm Samorn Selim. Welcome to the Career Unicorns - Spark Your Joy Podcast. I'm a lawyer turned career coach on a mission for us to take our careers from dread to joy. Growing up as the daughter of poor Lao refugees, I was the underdog. Against all odds, I made it to a top 10 law school and landed a job in Big Law. As an outsider, I was told that I was lucky to even be there and that I had to pay my dues. After coaching over 1,000 clients, I now realize that the idea that you have to pay your dues and work in a toxic place is a myth. We can face our challenges head on, do work we are passionate about, and work with good people to make a big impact. So even as we struggle, we can find a sense of belonging.

Are you ready to stop living for others and start living for you?

We dive deep into: How people-pleasing is a survival response, and the science behind changing it. Leveraging neuroplasticity to rewrite old, self-limiting narratives that hold your career back. Why embracing small, necessary pain (Hormesis!) is the key to massive growth and impact. Giving voice to your "shadow energy" from a kind and compassionate place.
