If June was about pressing pause and reflecting on where you are in your career, July is about pressing play, with purpose.
We’re now into the second half of 2025. You’ve realigned your career goals, taken stock of what matters, and identified what’s not working. Now it’s time to move from clarity to action.
Here’s how to take practical, focused steps this month to turn your career reset into real, lasting change.
1. Pick One Priority Goal
Start simple: what’s the one thing that would make the biggest difference to your career right now?
Is it:
- Updating your CV and LinkedIn profile?
- Speaking to your manager about a promotion?
- Exploring a career pivot into a different industry?
- Finally starting that professional qualification?
Write it down. Set a deadline. Tell someone. (Even better – book a call with a coach who will help you stay accountable.)
2. Build a “Micro Action Plan”
Big goals are only achieved through small, consistent actions. Try this quick structure:
Eg; Goal is to update Linkedin
3 Things I can do this month to achieve this goal
- Rewrite my profile
- Add recent achievements
- Ask for 2 recommendations
This keeps you moving forward without overwhelm.
3. Create Visibility for Yourself
Are you quietly doing a great job but not getting noticed? Start with one of these:
- Share a recent work win with your network on LinkedIn.
- Join a relevant industry event or webinar and follow up with 3 new connections.
- Ask for feedback – it shows confidence and builds trust.
Visibility = opportunities. Don’t hide your talent.
4. Make Space to Reflect Weekly
Career growth doesn’t come from ticking off tasks alone – it comes from intentional reflection.
Try this simple Friday check-in:
- What did I move forward this week?
- What felt energising? What drained me?
- What do I want to focus on next week?
Keep a journal, or use voice notes if that’s more your style. The key is consistency.
5. Don’t Go It Alone
If you’re reading this and feeling excited but also unsure where to start, that’s totally normal.
Support makes all the difference. Whether you’re looking for:
- A new role that aligns with your values
- Help navigating a difficult career crossroads
- Confidence to make a bold move
- Or just a safe space to think things through…
…I’m here.
