As a career shifter, you know what it’s like. You’ve been through the ups and downs of learning a new industry, and you’re still working on your confidence every day.

But you’re not alone! We all face challenges when we shift careers or go into new industries. But there are ways to overcome them!

We’re here to help you get through those struggles with tips that will help you build confidence in your new field and overcome any fears or doubts.

First things first: if you’re feeling like an imposter—like everyone else in this industry has more experience than you do—here’s a secret: they don’t! Everyone has to start somewhere, so don’t be afraid to ask questions or admit when you don’t know something. That’s how we all learn. And remember: if someone is condescending or dismissive toward you, they’re just jealous that they didn’t think of it first!

And if you’re struggling with confidence overall, remember that it’s okay to take baby steps instead of tackling everything at once. Small wins are key! If you’re feeling stuck, it’s okay to take a break. Sometimes we need time to recharge and move on, so don’t feel bad about stepping away from your work for a bit.

And remember: even if you fail, it’s not the end of the world. You can always try again!
