The Afternoon Shift

About The Afternoon Shift

The Afternoon Shift is a hub for mid-career marketing, media, and creative professionals navigating what’s next. Hosted by Brady Sadler, this show explores how to thrive, not just survive, during the most pivotal stretch of our careers. What started with a few small group conversations quickly became something deeper: research, newsletter, events, a growing community, and now these recorded conversations. We're sitting down with incredible leaders across a wide range of businesses, to dig into personal stories, practical solutions, and the bigger questions shaping our work and our lives right now. This isn’t just a show. It’s part of a larger effort to turn ideas into collaborations, and connections into meaningful work. Because we believe career should be more of a team sport. If this sounds like your kind of community, please hit the follow button. That's a small way you can help us connect with more people. Thanks for listening.

   Feeling Unmoored? How to Navigate The Rocky Waters of Career Change with Executive and Team Coach Allie Wilkinson

   What do you do when you feel completely adrift, whether you're sensing a career change coming or you're squarely in the midst of one? In this conversation we sit down with executive and team coach Allie Wilkinson, founder of Walden Leadership Group, to talk through the acute challenges of a career shift. We get into the strange magic of the liminal space, why career is a team sport, and the hard realization that working harder often isn't the answer. A conversation for anyone sensing a shift, in the thick of one, or leading through change. ----------------------- Connect with Allie on LinkedIn (https://www.linkedin.com/in/allisonyateswilkinson/)- https://www.linkedin.com/in/allisonyateswilkinson/ (https://www.linkedin.com/in/allisonyateswilkinson/) Learn more about her company and services: Walden Leadership Group (https://www.waldenleadership.com/) - https://www.waldenleadership.com/ (https://www.waldenleadership.com/) ----------------------- Learn more about The Afternoon Shift and sign up for our free newsletter.
