Eight Transferable Skills
Have you ever stopped to think about the skills you've picked up over the years? Not just the technical know-how specific to your job, but the experiences and abilities that aren’t written down in a job description. Those subtle but powerful skills that you’ve mastered, often without even realizing it, are what we call “transferable skills.”
The beauty of transferable skills? They stay with you no matter where you go.
Recognizing the Power of Transferable Skills
I recently spoke with someone who spent years in a heavily regulated industry. They were nervous about switching to a new, completely unrelated field. They said, “I’m not sure what I bring to the table; I feel like I’m starting from scratch.”
💡But the moment we started breaking things down, it was like a light bulb went off.
They realized they weren’t starting over at all. They brought with them refined skills in communication, the ability to handle crises, and a confident grasp of leadership. And here’s the thing—I bet you have some of these skills too.

Thankful for YOU playlist!
Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays. It reminds me of how impactful a gratefulness practice can be. I created my Thankful for YOU playlist in 2021, as a thank you gift to all my amazing clients, colleagues, friends and family who enrich my life all year long. Each year I update it with new songs but it maintains a theme of happiness and gratefulness. Something to play when making dinner, on a drive, whenever you need a pick me up. Enjoy!
