Publisher's summary

What if you didn’t have to change everything in your career to change your life at work?

When hard things happen in our fast-moving careers, conventional wisdom offers two options: A) go find a new job, or B) stay put and “be grateful you have a job”.

But job hunting is exhausting and complex, and workplace change often disrupts parts of our lives that were going just fine. And staying where we are, without change? That’s soul-sucking and quickly impacts our mental health, physical well-being, and ability to be happier at work.

There’s a fresh answer to help you make better career decisions without resorting to the drastic measures of changing careers, finding a new job, starting a business, or bowing to an early and unwanted retirement - and without settling or sacrificing your health, family life, and well-being.

Welcome to your Red Cape Rescue. Leadership and career coach Darcy Eikenberg shares simple, practical ways to reset how you think, revise what you say, and rescue your career without quitting, feeling stuck, or changing everything in your life. As a private coach, mentor, and speaker, she’s taught these concepts to thousands of professionals around the world, and now they’re here for you, too.

In this high-energy, fun, and fast-paced audiobook you’ll uncover:

• Surprising ways to shift your mindset and build confidence, fast
• How to create more control over your career choices than you ever knew was possible
• What to say to ask for what you need from others - even if you have a bad manager or difficult colleagues

A great book at the right time

Many due to the stress of current conditions have us thinking is it worth it? This book helps guide you through those thoughts in a narration that makes it feel like a coffee shop chat. Great read by an author that knows her stuff

Enjoyable and insightful!

Even though I personally know the author, I enjoyed hearing her read her own book. I found it to be very insightful and will give to all my young neices so they can learn from Darcy!

Love it!

Wow, Coach Darcy keeps it simple and authentic in this valuable read. This book is for those who feel anxious about what to do next or not knowing what lies ahead when exploring different career options. There are simple exercises you can practice for personal growth and different approaches to staying positive, assertive, and productive. It's the paradigm shift from being passive to learning who you are proactively and knowing how to add value to your job to effectively ask for what you need. Great advice and I would highly recommend it to anyone!

It’s what I needed to hear

This book is deceivingly small. It was a lot pauses for me to stop and think about what she’s asking and to do the work but I come out on the other side able to articulate my needs and stand firm in my decisions.
