Shownotes

So you're looking to leave your nine to five job, right? You want to do something different.

But you're probably a bit lost.

You've changed jobs - likely multiple times - but what you really need is a complete career change.

You might be thinking, where do I even start?

in season one of escape, the nine to five, host Steve Oehley spoke to some people who'd made the leap, including uncovering some of the myths we tell ourselves that hold us back.


in season two, we're doing a deeper dive into how to make a career change and I will be sharing more of the framework I've created to help you escape the nine to five job.


Some of our guests this season include career experts, Kathy Caprino and Joseph Liu. Author and Tedx Speaker, Nigel Marsh, and award-winning National Geographic Photographer, Jason Edwards.


We end each episode with a few tips from our guests and each week I'll give you a take home challenge to help you on your own career change journey.


We'll be releasing episodes weekly, with guest episodes every fortnight and in the alternating weeks we'll be releasing quick bite episodes with specific career advice.
