What if you could change the way you feel about yourself for good and transform all your self-doubt into confidence, courage and motivation? What if you were crystal clear on where you want to take your career and how to get there?
I sit down with Danielle Cobo as she shares exactly how she left her job in corporate America to not only pursue but create her dream job.
Meet Danielle Cobo
Danielle is an award winning career and leadership coach who helps professionals accelerate their careers, increase sales performance and create a connective company culture through her coaching.
With being a career and leadership coach, Danielle doesn’t just help professionals start and manage a business, but so much more. She finds out what is your “why” and what are you passionate about. Not only does she help others figure out exactly what they are passionate about, but also what opportunities they may have.
You may think of a career and leadership coach as someone who helps college graduates determine what they want to do next, but that’s not the case. Danielle’s clients range from new graduates to those who are working in Corporate America, building a side hustle or creating a business that will go full blown. It all goes back to what the client enjoys - whether that’s in a.role or something that Danielle and the client can create together.
Making a Dream Job Her Reality
Being in Corporate America for 15 years, Danielle was exposed to a lot of resources providing her with tools specifically on training and development. Even though she was climbing the corporate ladder for a fortune 500 company, Danielle knew that she wanted to transition to something different.
She began to break down what she liked and didn’t like about her current job and knew one thing for sure, she loved to work with people. As she continued this process, she realized the very thing she was doing is what she has been working with her team members on and she wanted to continue doing so through being a career coach.
Leaving her 6 figure position, company car and benefits, she was afraid, but Danielle knew this was what she loved and that she needed to take a risk on it. With that, she is so glad she did!
Letting Go of Limiting Beliefs
Ever feel like you’re playing a mind game with yourself? So often we tell ourselves we can’t do this or that… we all do it.
Understanding that fear is never going to go away and you will be faced with growth and challenges throughout your career is the first step. On today’s episode Danielle shares many practical steps to combat this imposter syndrome.
As Danielle says, there is no better time than now to tackle those limiting beliefs. It’s time to be aware, crush it and move past those fears. You never want to look back and wish that you had done things before.
