On today\\u2019s show, I have the honour to talk with Jette Stubbs, who is a Career and Business Coach, and Host of Happy Career Formula Podcast with Jette Stubbs.

\\n

I\\u2019ve had some powerful conversations, but this conversation really shifted my mindset and perception on many levels.

\\n

Now that things are opening up and new ways of working are being implemented, approaching your career has to be looked at through a different set of lens.

\\n

Born and raised in the Bahamas, Jette went to university in Canada. After graduating and tuition fees to pay, she had 90 days to find a job or leave the country with zero connections and no family, in the country as an international student. She realised she had lots of skills, but no idea how to market herself. She went from 0% response rate to over 100 job applications to a 70% response rate to 10 job applications. By investing in herself and asking herself the right questions she came up with a strategy that shifted everything. Then, she started helping others.

\\n

While she was working, Jette experienced common and uncommon obstacles: discrimination at work, living in a country without any family, mum stabbed in a robbery (and lived), dad diagnosed with dementia when she was 25, and had to move countries to take care of him. Entering a new chapter in her life she realised she didn't want just any job, she wanted to build a way to make money that aligns with who she is and more importantly, her situation.

\\n

She now runs a successful career and business coaching business helping clients and businesses all over the world.

\\n

Jette shares powerful tools that you can implement NOW to help you along your career and business journey. Young and old!
