In a powerful conversation featured alongside Steven Bartlett, entrepreneur, author and host of The Diary of a CEO, the focus turns to something deeper than job titles or salaries. It is about purpose, fulfilment and having the courage to design a life and career that truly fits.
This article is inspired by insights from my number one bestselling book, How to Change Career in Six Steps, and over two decades of supporting people through meaningful transitions. As a multi-award-winning entrepreneur and founder of The Creation Station, I have seen first-hand how creativity, values and clarity can unlock extraordinary change in work, wellbeing and life.
Steven Bartlett often speaks about alignment, self-belief and creating success on your own terms. These themes sit at the very heart of career change. Not change for the sake of it, but intentional, values-led change that supports both personal ambition and positive impact.
For many, the first step is not quitting a job or starting a business.
It is reflection.
That is why I created the Career Change Quiz, a simple 60-second tool designed to help people pause, reflect and uncover the strengths, values and motivations that shape a fulfilling career. Inspired by How to Change Career in Six Steps, the quiz helps reveal what might be holding you back and what could propel you forward.
It explores:
- What truly energises you
- Where your hidden strengths may lie
- How aligned your current work is with your values and vision
- What kind of change might support greater fulfilment and purpose
As Steven Bartlett often highlights, clarity is a catalyst. When you understand yourself better, you make braver, more confident decisions. Sometimes, a small moment of insight can spark a whole new chapter.
If 2026 feels like it could be your year for change, not rushed, not reactive, but considered and courageous, this is a powerful place to start.
