I’m Samorn Selim. 

I’m a lawyer turned career coach on a mission for us to take our careers from dread to joy. As the daughter of poor Lao refugees, I was told to pay my dues.

After coaching over 1,000 clients, I now realize that the idea that you have to pay your dues and work in a toxic place is a myth. 

We can face our challenges head on, do work we are passionate about, and work with good people with kind hearts to make a big impact. So even as we struggle, we can find a sense of belonging.

Do you feel burnt out and need time off?  But you’re afraid employers will see it as a red flag?  Lisa Chin (Intellectual Property Leader & Lawyer at Fortune 500 Company) shares:

 

- Why she took a year off to travel and explore what she really wanted from her career.

- How being candid about why she took time off resulted in her getting an offer.  

- How she realized her specialty was not a good fit for her, and pivoted into another area.
