| 26 Nov 2024 | #14 "I'm Terrified to Quit My Job - I've Been Here 4 Years and They Rely On Me So Much" | 00:28:25 | |
This week, we take a reader question from Sara in Chicago: Dear Mandy, I've been at my current job for 4 years. I have wanted to leave for 3 years. Staying has always been the easier option, I have so much flexibility and creative control, but my workplace is toxic and every year I have less and less consistent staff to manage the workload. I currently do the job of 3 different roles in one position, and am not paid enough for the amount that I do. The quality of work that I am able to do decreases everyday, along with my motivation. I am turning 30 and I have decided I cannot let myself delay any longer, but now I am TERRIFIED that I stayed too long. My peers have never stayed longer than 2 years at a position and people keep telling me that it looks bad on my resume to have stayed for 4 years. Now i feel even more pressure to leave before the year is up but I haven't found a new position. All I see is people saying the job market is terrible and that getting a new job could take almost a year. Ineed an income to fall back on, but i am afraid the longer I stay at this job the less hirable I am becoming, which is creating a feedback loop of making me even more scared to quit. I also have an extreme sense of guilt about leaving my boss with no one to fill my role, as a lot of the company's function depends on me. Am I putting too much pressure on myself to leave before the year ends? Or am I right in thinking that staying in this job is hindering my ability to move forward? ___ I'm the author of two journals, which are available on my website, www.mandytang.co.

| 08 Oct 2024 | #7 How I grew from 10K to 65K on TikTok in 9 months! (strategy, mindset, tips to grow authentically) | 00:38:53 | |
In 2024, I set my mind to growing my social media channels. In less than 9 months, I grew my TikTok channel organically (with NO ads or paid promotions) from 10,000 to 65,000 followers. My goal is to get to 100,000 followers by early next year. I started at ZERO. I have no connections. I just worked hard and showed up. I'm a regular person. If I can do it, you can, too. If you’re a creative that says to themselves, I’m really good - but no one knows I exist, and you find the idea of self promotion and getting into social media totally overwhelming - then this video is for you. Growing on TikTok is so much about reclaiming your voice and being authentically you. In this video, I’m going to share tips of how to master your mindset and grow exponentially. === Subscribe to my free weekly newsletter on careers: https://careercoachmandy.substack.com/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@careercoachmandy Website: https://mandytang.co/ Leave a message in the "I Have a Burning Question" form: https://forms.gle/NmKx99XXBhDWjGyC7 | |||

| 01 Oct 2024 | #6 Feeling lost? 3 creative approaches to discover your path | 00:20:12 | |
are you feeling lost in life, and not sure what direction you should go in? are you a multi-passionate person who has many talents and not sure what you should do next? then, this episode is for you! Approach #1: You might have to break shit Make a list of all the crazy ideas that you have Little pop pop ideas on the page Growth isn’t linear. You just have to start trying stuff and then along the way, different pathways will break open. Give yourself permission to be messy. Approach #2: Mastery What do you want to gain mastery over? Ask yourself, from a longevity perspective, what is something that you could imagine doing for a long time? This is not about your regular compensation. This is about – over the course of my career – what do I think I will still likely give a shit about in 5 years, 10 years. If you are doing it “just for the money” it will not work. All work is a grind, even if it’s your “dream job” it’s still going to have dark days. What is a skill that you can grow with? You know how they say the best marriages are ones where you can grow together? Same idea. Approach #3: Trust Trust your inner creative The shadow is the seat of creativity is based on the concept of the shadow as a part of the unconscious mind that contains repressed parts of the self We hide the shadow; the judgemental, the aggressive, the spiteful, the vengeful, the jealous parts of ourselves. We want to be calm and likeable and sweet. The shadow is also the part of you that can’t lie. And what is creativity if not honesty? So we must honor the ideas that come from inside of us; they are a gift. You have to be in relationship with it. If you get an idea, but then you don’t do anything about it – it dies. It goes somewhere else to be born. It will stop trusting you. So you have to start building that trust and taking the risks. | |||

| 22 Oct 2024 | #9 Golden handcuffs: but should I just stay, because I won't make as much money if I leave | 00:33:32 | |
Today, we answer the question "but what if I have golden handcuffs, and I'll never be able to find the same salary in a different job?" The truth is, you're unhappy at work and know that you need to leave, but the pain of leaving money on the table (aka the economic theory of loss aversion) is keeping you stuck! This is also related to scarcity mindset, and the feeling that you only have one chance to get it right. This is bullshit though, and companies intentionally set it up so that you feel the pain if you leave. But your freedom is on the other side of hard. So look outside your current situation and start to build different options for yourself, to minimize the feeling of pain. ___ 📕 The Should I Quit Journal 📕 A 28-page printed workbook, shipped directly anywhere in the world, to help you figure out if you should leave, and what to do next!

| 24 Jan 2025 | #22 What's My Passion? Ummmm, sorry, you have me confused for someone who *actually* has their life together | 00:27:33 | |
Don’t feel bad if you don’t know what your passion is. The truth is, most people really have NO IDEA. In today’s video, we unpack why "passion" is probably the wrong question, especially if you're experiencing burnout (or a numbing of emotion). Instead, I offer a simpler solution: find every day projects with a clean beginning and end to give you joy. Hi, I’m Mandy, and I’m a writer and a career coach and I talk about how to bring more creativity into your life. Thank you so much for watching!

| 10 Dec 2024 | #16 Personal Update, and Please Find Me on YouTube | 00:28:18 | |
Dear podcast friends, Thank you so much for listening to my episodes over the past four months. I really appreciate each and every one of you, and hope that my content has been helpful. After some reflecting, I've decided to stop actively recording my podcast so I can focus on YouTube. I hope to come back with a vengeance one day, but in the meantime, I am practicing learning my limits and trying to focus on doing a few things well rather than spread myself too thin. I'm going to end with an episode (starts at the 8:38 mark) called Put Yourself First that I filmed on YouTube. Thank you so much! Mandy www.mandytang.co | |||
