The Challenge We're Solving Today
Here’s the truth: the career breakthrough you’re pining after is not going to show up while you scroll job boards or refresh your inbox for recruiter emails.
“Uh, duh, Steph. I already knew that.”
Well, then let me ask you this: Are you actually doing something about it, or are you just thinking about doing something?
If you’re feeling a little called out right now, it’s all love—I’ve got your back. Let’s turn the next 30 days into your personal career power move.
Why This Matters to You
You don’t need me to tell you this, but here it is anyway: If you’re not actively creating new opportunities, you’re staying stuck.
And honestly, you’re too good for that.
I can hear you now: “But Steph, I’m too busy!”
Listen, I’m not here to load you up with 10,000 things to do.
I’m giving you three laser-focused moves to double your opportunities without doubling your workload.
You in?
Let’s go.
Common Solutions and Why They Might Not Work
Let’s get real about some of the usual strategies people lean on:
- Spraying resumes at every job post you can find. How’s that working out? If you’re lucky, maybe you’ll get a few “thanks, but no thanks” emails.
- Reaching out to everyone and their cousin on LinkedIn. Be honest—are you sending the same generic message to everyone? Because nobody’s answering that.
- Overhauling your entire career strategy overnight. Spoiler: Trying to do all the things at once is a one-way ticket to “Why did I even start this?”
The problem? These strategies lack precision, and they leave you spinning your wheels. Time to do better.
A Better Approach for You
We’re stripping it down to three moves. Simple, strategic, and designed to make an impact fast.
1. Dominate Your LinkedIn.
Yes, your LinkedIn profile is fine. But is it pulling people in? Rewrite your headline so it’s less “here’s what I do” and more “here’s why you need me.” Click here for the formula that'll get peoples' attention.Your summary should read like a highlight reel of your wins—not a snooze-fest. And for the love of all things professional, stop lurking. Post. Comment. Engage. I promise, it’s not as weird as it feels at first.
2. Network like a shark.
No more random connections. Go straight for the right fish in the sea. Make a list of decision-makers in your industry—hiring managers, recruiters, and people you genuinely admire. Craft a short, personal message when you connect. Something like, “Hey, I saw your post about [topic]—really inspiring! I’d love to learn more about your work.” See how that feels way less cringe than, “Hi, please hire me”? Click here for more networking tips.
3. Show them you’re evolving—and fast.
Pick one skill that’s red-hot in your industry and commit to mastering it. Not “someday.” Not “when you have more time.” Right now. Share what you’re learning on LinkedIn or mention it in conversations. Employers love someone who’s not just ready but actively getting ready.
Summary
Here’s where we land: By the end of this month, your LinkedIn will stop collecting digital dust and start pulling in opportunities. Your network will include people who can actually open doors for you. And you’ll have a shiny new skill that says, “Hire me, I’m future-proof.”
I know you might still be thinking, “But Steph, what if this doesn’t work for me?”
Let me be clear—it will. Not because it’s magic, but because it’s focused, intentional, and designed to actually get results.
