137: The Seasons of Your Career: How to Stop Burning Out and Start Being Strategic This Summer

Are you pushing yourself just as hard in June as you did in January — and wondering why you feel depleted, disconnected, or stuck? This episode might be the most honest conversation you have had about your career all year.

On the first day of summer, Dr. Nicole Bryan introduces a framework that changed how she thinks about career growth: the four seasons of your career. Because not every season is a sprint. And the women who burn out, lose motivation, or stall on the path to the executive level are often not failing — they are just in the wrong season for how they are showing up.

In this episode, you will learn:

• Why career growth is not linear — and why that is actually good news
• The four career seasons 
• Why some seasons are chosen and others are imposed on you by life circumstances — and why neither is wrong
• Why summer is one of the most strategic career seasons — and how to use it intentionally whether you are pushing for a promotion or protecting your energy

If you are an ambitious Black woman who is tired of feeling like you are working hard but not moving forward — this episode will help you understand why. And what to do about it.
