#292: Reset Season: Why September Is the Perfect Time to Refocus Your Career

The Career Change Maker Podcast I Career Change, Career Advancement & Leadership Development

🎙️ Episode Overview

In this episode of the Career Change Maker Podcast, I dive into the idea of a September reset — a chance to treat this time of year like a second new year for your career and personal growth.

I share lessons from my own recovery journey after rupturing my Achilles, where I’ve had to lean into resilience, patience, and consistency. Even when progress felt invisible, I realised the importance of acknowledging the small wins that build strength over time.

If you’ve been feeling stuck, off track, or in need of a boost, this episode will help you embrace September as the perfect moment to refocus, reset, and move forward with clarity.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

✅ Why September is a powerful time to reset and refocus your career.
