#13: Career Reinvention After the Title Ends
We don’t just lose a job — we lose the shorthand.
The business card.
The way we explain who we are in a room.In this episode, I unpack why it feels so hard to let go of a title — even when the role no longer fits.
Because we’ve all had that moment of asking: “Who am I now?”We’ll talk about:
Why titles can feel like identity — and why they’re not your worth
The quiet emotional weight of losing a title
The mindset shift needed to rebuild from strengths, not status
How self-reflection helps you find what actually fits now
And as always, I’ll leave you with one clear challenge to move forward.
This is your reinvention. It’s not about the title. It’s about the impact you want to have next.
🎧 Listen in and share it with someone still holding onto a title that no longer fits.
💬 Note: The Reinvention Room app is currently on pause for new members as I rework how we support this next growth phase. If you'd like to join the waitlist when it reopens, leave your details on the contact form on my website.
