Is Your 'Shiny' Career Actually Making You Miserable?

Feeling stuck in a “good” job, wondering if it’s time for a mid-career change or career reinvention? This episode will help you reclaim your career, rethink career risk, and decide when playing it safe is actually holding you back. In this episode of Daring to Leap, host Loree Philip sits down with author and career consultant Jessica Galicia to unpack why playing it safe might be the biggest career risk you’re taking — especially in mid-career. Jess shares her story of leaving a successful 15-year corporate career at companies like Apple, Bain, and Siemens and how she learned to reclaim her career, bet on herself, and redefine what success looks like. You’ll also hear powerful insights from the women she interviewed for her book, Leap: Why It’s Time to Let Go to Get Ahead in Your Career. If you’re a mid-career professional, especially a high-achieving woman, who feels stuck, burned out, or out of alignment with your current path, this conversation will help you rethink risk, listen to your intuition, and start a more fulfilling career chapter.
