This is exactly my life right now. For the past few years I've been deeply struggling with staying true to myself and making/accepting the brave realization that the career I went to school for (even got my Masters in it) is not where my heart is at...and honestly, I don't think it ever was. I'm taking the steps to transition into design and it's both the scariest thing, while also feeling very right. I struggle with not always feeling confident in my skills, as most of us do, but after completing projects, I take a step back and look at what I've created, and it always brings reassurance that yes, this is what my path is supposed to look like. This period of change, transition and growth is absolutely the hardest thing I've ever had to go through, on a personal level, and although I've spent these few years learning and embracing my craft (which I'm very proud of), it's also been the HARDEST mental struggle I've ever, ever encountered... true depression at it's peak. When they say growing pains...it sure is...painful. But I've truly gotten to the point of feeling like desperation - I need and will make this career transition. I have to. I am going to. I hope everyone reading this will continue to be brave, and strong, and have the courage and faith to trust yourself.
I was a food technologist for 10 years, now I'm a UX designer - this video resonates with me.
This subject hits close to home for me. In full transparency, as an Asian American with tiger parents and an overly successful brother, my perspective on what constitutes success has led to a sense of unattainable goals and a pursuit of my father's respect. A blend of perfectionist and soloist has been my modus operandi for as long as I can remember, and just hearing Jules discuss these subjects with personal experience brings a sense of peace to these internal struggles. Thank you for sharing such a deep topic; very much a reflection of my own journey.
Her voice is just so soothing.
can I just say this resonated with me 100% am going through my own healing journey and everything you’re saying applies as an Asian American we often times don’t know what our or wants are because we are just reacting all the time it’s time for us to take back control and have agency and do what we want because we want to not because we were told to. Thank you so much for your story and I hope to one day inspire my loved ones to evaluate themselves similarly because I believe we all can live in our genius zone. The big leap is awesome btw.
Thank you for having this conversation - I've changed my career path many times and as I write this I'm in the middle of yet another one (a shift from graphic design to UX). My imposter hangups are in full go-mode because I have a lot to learn and my heart isn't truly into it (even though I'm pretty good at design). My heart is in fine art... painting, collage, and tangible objects. Even poetry. Those are messy and dirty pursuits that have a slow and regular rhythm (like me) vs. the media marketplace which has an ever increasing professional pace. BUT I'M NOT *DOING* THEM.
I want to do them, but I'm inert. As I wrestle with this and consider what my next steps could be, the perceived opinions of my parents echo... introducing fear, uncertainty, and doubt as I discern if, at my age, it's "wise" to pursue yet another career. But if I do - even with the learning curve and no certainty of success - it may finally awaken the "sleeper," and introduce the joy I've been searching for all along.
One of the best interviews I have ever watched!! Chris and Jule are jems! I hope you do more together in the futur! I resonated so much about growing up in an Asian tiger house.. if I'm not working, I'm not achieving, then who am I? I felt Jule was in my head. Thank you for your perspective, Jule and Chris!!
Thank you
I really finished this podcast!!! I love so much how Chris Do compliments people. Such a genuine friend!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I would love to see more on career switching when you aren't married and plan on working remotely.
Career transitions is a form of self love
You want to elevate yourself by way of knowing “this is not enough “
You’re being honest and leaning in growth 0:48
When you stay curious you never want to settle. 1:33
How can you comment already when the video has a duration of over 1 hour and it was published just 25 minutes ago? Is it the 2023 way to say "first!"?
This is perfect timing! I have been really struggling with what I want to do next and feeling with the shame of walking away from a career of climbing the corporate creative ladder. Thanks for the hit upside the head! ❤ much needed!
FOMO 12:11
I think it’s the idea of not wanting to be complacent and also the idea of knowing there is more to life
The acceptance of mastery but also alignment
When you know there is something more than this..
and industry of services and feedback once you reach mastery’ you seek a new adventure.
It’s could be the lack of commitment
Knowing you love something rather trying being mediocre
What a sweet conversation. I particularly liked the part about the followers and how Chris responded. I felt quite at home with you guys. ❤
Loved this. Awesome podcast from the both of you.
But, I've had to face the reality again... IMPOSTER SYNDROME is my biggest issue. I can identify with 4 of the 5 types and this is really why I procrastinate.
Wow, this one hits hard.. thank you so much, really made me think a lot about myself and my choices :)
Great discussion. Especially the second half 👌🏽
You guys are awesome. Thanks for this episode ❤
Don't sleep on this episode!
I always want to start my own digital marketing business, but too scared to leave my full time job.
Thank you so much for sharing this coversation.
I resonate SO much with this.
Your style of teaching, Chris, has helped me a lot. You're not a bad teacher at all. I probably had the same parenting style you had, rigid and "just do it". (I'm Italian btw, asians don't have the monopoly :'D )
Still, you helped me get a little more ready for action, but I've experienced the same problems she shared.
I didn't even know that there were different types of impostor syndromes! I didn't realize that I was, and currently am (right now as I'm writing), tricking myself and hindering my progress. Thanks for making this. It couldn't be more appropriate time in my life. It's one thing to think about these things, but it's another when another person says it.
Really relatable conversation and took notes during this interview, thank you so much for talking about this! Already booked a first session with Jules for next year.
Wow. This couldn’t have resonated more. Could I chose D. All of The Above - when it comes to the types of perfectionists? I have bounced around so many careers and am still trying to find my place. This really resonated. Thank you for this interview! 😊
Great Convo!
Thanks!
wow I find myself in so many of these things :/ love the pod
Love it
I have the same feeling ... That one needs to be born with a creative mind. Please tell me how to acquire skills to get into Graphic Design .
Hi Chris, Thank you so much! I am learning a lot from you. I love watching you and learning from you in RUclips. I just have a change of career, from an employee (customer service representative) to building my own (freelance) agency which will cater the same service. I am just struggling how to make this, so I am looking for vlogs because maybe I can get an information. Can you help? I would love to meet you in person here in the Philippines. I thank God for your life.❤😊
Hello. Soloist here.
Impeccable dad joke delivery
Aha 😅 I got 3 out of 5 types of Impostor Syndrome. Oh god... 😱
Edited: Uh-oh. 5/5 😂
Uh oh maybe I do need a therapist.
