  • Episode 86 A Career Crossroads: What does it look like, feel like and what to do next
    2026/07/03

    You're successful on paper. Capable, still showing up, still the person colleagues message when something needs sorting. And yet - something's shifted, and you can't quite name what.

    In this episode, Sarah unpacks the career crossroads: that disorienting in-between space where what used to fit no longer does, and what's next hasn't taken shape yet. Whether it's shown up through redundancy, burnout recovery, hitting a milestone, or being offered a promotion that should feel exciting but doesn't - the internal experience underneath is strikingly similar.

    Sarah breaks down the six patterns that keep ambitious women stuck at the crossroads longer than they need to be (hint: it's rarely about effort), and walks through the first, most important step forward - one that has nothing to do with having a plan.

    If you've ever felt quietly unsettled despite "having it all," or caught yourself hesitating at an opportunity you'd have said yes to in a heartbeat five years ago, this episode will help you understand exactly what's going on - and what to do about it.

  • Episode 85 How to Get Unstuck In your Career: Kate Dunstone's journey from Marketing Manager to Director
    2026/06/26
    In this episode, Sarah is joined by former client Kate Dunstone, who shares her inspiring career journey from a long and successful career in higher education marketing to a senior leadership role in a completely new sector.After 17 years at the University of Portsmouth, Kate knew she was ready for something more aligned with her values, interests and long-term ambitions. In this conversation, she shares what it was really like to leave the security of a role and organisation she’d known for years, how she built the confidence to change sector, and how coaching helped her step into a more strategic, senior role with greater flexibility.If you’re wondering whether it’s too late to change direction, whether your skills will transfer to a new sector, or whether you’re really ready for a bigger role, this episode will give you both practical ideas and a confidence boost.In this episode, we cover:Kate’s career journey from course administrator to senior marketing leaderWhat made her realise she’d outgrown higher education after 17 yearsHow she built the confidence to change sector and go for a more senior roleThe role coaching played in clarifying her direction and helping her take actionWhy a trustee role helped strengthen her CV and support her sector moveHow she negotiated a role with more flexibility and better fit for her lifeWhat helped her move from Head of Marketing to DirectorWhy empathy and emotion can be leadership strengths rather than weaknessesWhat being “unstuck and unstoppable” means to KateTimestamps00:00 – Introduction to Kate and her career journey01:50 – Kate’s current role as Director of Membership, Marketing and Digital03:35 – Starting out in higher education and moving into marketing06:20 – Growing into leadership and becoming more strategic08:15 – Confidence, career progression and balancing ambition with motherhood10:45 – Why Kate decided to get coaching support13:00 – How coaching helped with clarity, confidence, CV and LinkedIn15:00 – Taking on a trustee role to support a sector change17:20 – Landing the Head of Marketing and Communications role at the college20:05 – Going for the Director role and backing herself to step up22:40 – What Kate wishes she’d known earlier in her career23:35 – Reframing emotion and empathy as leadership strengths25:10 – Kate’s experience of coaching and what helped most27:10 – What “unstuck and unstoppable” means to Kate28:20 – Why networking, visibility and LinkedIn still matter even when you’re not job searchingKey takeaways from this episodeKate’s story is such a good reminder that getting unstuck isn’t always about making a dramatic leap. Sometimes it’s about paying attention to what no longer fits, getting honest about what you really want, and taking the next step before you feel 100% ready.It’s also a powerful example of how career change doesn’t mean starting again. Kate took years of leadership, marketing and stakeholder experience and repositioned it into a new sector that felt much more meaningful and aligned.And perhaps most importantly, this conversation highlights that qualities many women dismiss in themselves - like emotion, empathy and sensitivity - can become some of their greatest strengths as leaders.Useful LinksConnect with Kate on LinkedInEpisode 61 How to Create a Personal Board for Your Leadership CareerSign up for Weekly Career InspirationLearn about Leadership & Advancement Coaching ProgrammesBook a Free 121 Clarity CallConnect with Sarah on LinkedInRate & Review the PodcastIf you found this episode of Unstuck & Unstoppable helpful, please do rate and review it on Apple Podcasts or Spotify.If you're kind enough to leave a review, please do let Sarah know so she can say thank you.

  • Episode 84 The Sign There is More For You in Your Career (even if you can't see it yet!)
    2026/06/19

    Have you ever found yourself wondering, "Is this really it?"

    From the outside, everything looks successful. You're performing well, earning good money, and progressing in your career. Yet something feels different. Not wrong exactly, but no longer quite right.

    In this solo episode, Sarah explores the often-overlooked signs that you've outgrown your current role, even when you can't yet see what comes next. She shares insights from her work with senior professional women who are navigating career transitions, questioning their direction, and searching for greater meaning, purpose and fulfilment.

    If you've been feeling disconnected, restless or drawn towards something different, this episode will help you understand what's really happening beneath the surface and why uncertainty may be a sign of growth rather than a problem to solve.

    In This Episode You'll Discover
    • Why successful women often struggle to recognise when they've outgrown a role
    • The hidden reasons career clarity can feel so elusive
    • How your professional identity can lag behind your personal growth
    • Four subtle signs there may be more for you in your career
    • Why uncertainty is often a natural part of career evolution
    • A simple reflection exercise to help you reconnect with what matters most
