Category: Career Growth, Leadership & Team Building, Motivation & Self-Improvement, Decision-Making & Critical Thinking
Tired of waiting for someone else to fix your career? Sam and Sophie dive into You Coach You, exploring the SQID framework and why self-coaching beats hoping for a promotion.
They break down the four steps of SQID: Strengths, Questions, Insights, and Decisions. You'll learn the difference between skills and strengths, how to ask generative questions instead of victimizing ones, and how to turn insights into action using the Decision Matrix. They also cover the career squiggle, the pirate mindset, and the Energy Audit tool.
If you've ever felt stuck in your job or unsure how to grow, this episode gives you a practical toolkit to take back control. The takeaway: the most important relationship you have is with yourself, and you can coach yourself through anything.
