EPISODE SUMMARY

Making a career change can be tough, and can be made tougher when you have a lot of people criticizing your decision to do something different with your career.

In this episode of Chancap, Max talks about his own experience with criticism when he was diving into the field of resume writing and career coaching with only a background in marketing.

Based on this past week's episode with Lisa Arthur on how to overcome the fear of making a career change and take action to get your dream job.
