Also, huge shout out to Martin McGovern, the host of Career Therapy, for creating, producing, and starring in ONE HUNDRED podcast episodes. This is no small feat, for anyone. So trust us, a round of applause is in order.
Most podcasts burn out after a couple dozen episodes (or get left in the dust well before that) as the hosts pursue other interests or simply realize how challenging it is to churn out inspired content on a regular basis. Not Career Therapy. For over two-and-½ years now (since January 2020), Martin has been fueling the creative fire in order to crank out new episodes. As always, he’s exploring the hidden side of modern work, helping you turn procrastination into job search motivation, and teaching you how to stress less, earn more, and change careers with confidence.
Although we’ve relaxed the upload schedule a bit as Martin’s about to begin his own journey to become a therapist (ie. concentrate the ‘Therapy’ half of the podcast name), the show must go on. We’ll see you soon with new episodes. But for now, cheers to 100. It wouldn’t have been possible without Martin’s perseverance and dedication.
By the way, if you dig this podcast, consider hitting the subscribe button on YouTube, clicking ‘follow’ on social media or wherever you get your audio content, or passing it along to a friend whom you think might be interested. We’re aiming to send these ideas far and wide. Thanks for all your support, and thanks for tuning in.

#96 - "HOW DO I FIND A BETTER WORK LIFE BALANCE?" | Live Coaching Call with 'Kara'
Career Therapy Podcast e.96 - LIVE CAREER COACHING SESSION (with ‘Kara’)
We’re continuing our foray into the live coaching calls this week with an episode (e.96) featuring a woman named ‘Kara.’ By the way, this is a throwback episode from an older series (way back in 2018) that was going to be called ‘Career Instincts,’ and revolve solely around live coaching sessions with different clients.
Kara is in project management, coming from an environmental science background. She’s a little intimidated by the idea of learning programming languages and coding skills, but loves the coordination, management, problem-solving, and communications aspect of her current job. Nonetheless, she’s worried she’ll be “stuck" in the same unfulfilling role forever. She's looking to break out and broaden her horizons.
In this episode, Martin takes ‘Kara’ through a full-on coaching call, helping her identify the parts of her life/career she wants to improve, the specific role she wants to pursue, and the companies she’s interested in working for. The call deals a lot with finding a good work/life balance, transferring skills from more physical hands-on roles to white-collar desk jobs, and creating a financial runway to reorient one’s career. If you’ve ever wondered what a live coaching call is like, this is the episode for you!
