The 3 Mid-Career Traps Keeping You Stuck (And How to Escape)

You did everything right. Got the degree, the promotions, the “high potential” label. And somehow… you’re still stuck in a job that looks great on LinkedIn but feels terrible on Monday morning. According to Gallup’s latest data, only 1 in 5 professionals are actually engaged at work. If you’re in your mid-career (10-20 years in), that statistic hits different, because you’ve already invested so much into a path that’s no longer working. In this video, I break down what’s really keeping you stuck,and the only two levers that actually fix it: move up or move out. The Real Problem: Most mid-career professionals don’t stay stuck because they’re lazy or unambitious. They stay stuck because every option feels equally risky, so they default to doing nothing for “one more year”… and call it being responsible. I built the Mid-Career Crossroads Assessment for this exact moment. In 10 minutes, you’ll discover: 1. Your dominant trap profile (golden handcuffs, invisible ceiling, or identity confusion). 2. Your “Move Up vs Move Out” score based on skills, risk tolerance, and runway. 3. Case studies of people like you who successfully made the transition. 4. A clear 12-month action plan to move forward. This Video Is For You If: ✔️You’re 10-20 years into your career and feeling stuck ✔️You’re competent, successful on paper, but unfulfilled ✔️You see less-qualified people get promoted past you ✔️You’ve thought about leaving but don’t know where to go ✔️You’re torn between chasing executive roles or starting your own thing ✔️You keep saying “one more year” but nothing changes Key Takeaways: 🔐 Gallup data: Only 20% of professionals are engaged at work 🔐 Golden handcuffs = high income + low fulfillment + fear of loss 🔐 Invisible ceiling happens when you play the IC game in an executive world 🔐 Identity confusion creates paralysis (no clear identity = no clear action) 🔐 You only have 2 real levers: Move up (executive track) or Move out (new path) 🔐 Most people stay stuck not from lack of ambition, but lack of a concrete plan 🔐 The Mid-Career Crossroads Assessment gives you that plan in 10 minutes 🎯 Ready to Make Your Move?
