EP133: What An Army Sniper Turned Child Magician Can Teach Us About Careers - With Julian Mather

Published: Jan. 3, 2021, 8:29 p.m.

In this week\u2019s episode of Change Your POV Podcast I have the pleasure of sitting down with Julian Mather as we discuss changing careers. This is a very scary proposition for many, and something we as Veterans do quite often, but why?

\n

Getting out of the military and landing in a specific career field that you spend the rest of your career in is not very common. Many, (myself included) find out through trial and error, that certain career fields don\u2019t end up as once thought or as advertised.

\n

The question becomes, do you have what it takes to walk away from a career in spite of your better judgment to pursue something different that you have more passion for?

\n

Many find themselves on that ledge but never make the leap. Julian Mather had what it took to make that leap of faith on more than one occasion. Check out this episode as he explains how and more importantly, why!

\n

It is critical, maintaining an open mind and willingness to Change Your Perspective as you progress through your life. Changing Careers once, twice, or even more may be what you NEED to do, you may not want to, and it will be uncomfortable, but necessary all the same!

\nIN THIS PARTICULAR EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN:\nTransitioning from an Army Sniper to a 25-year career in photojournalism as a cameraman, to a children\u2019s magician to podcast host\u2026? What?\n

Ya, that\u2019s what I thought too so I had to have Julian on the show and I am very glad I did! Be sure to check out everything he has going on and please leave any comments below in the comments section if you resonate with Julian\u2019s story, or have a similar one, we would love to hear it!
