Happy Monday Escapees!

Somewhere out there, a woman is rehearsing an email she’ll never send. Another is rewriting her CV for the 12th time, wondering if she’s “qualified enough” (spoiler: she is). And somewhere else, a brilliant woman is waiting to feel ready before she makes her next move.

Here’s the thing: Most big career changes don’t start with confidence. They start with courage. And if history tells us anything, women have never lacked that.

They’ve pivoted from law to chocolate-making, quit banking to build a social enterprise, left stable jobs to freelance, consult, or write that book. Not because they had a perfect plan, but because they backed themselves before the world did.

And they did it with challenges that statistics say should have held them back—like being far more likely to underestimate their own abilities, or being judged more harshly when negotiating for better pay.

So, if you’re staring at a career shift and waiting to feel certain… don’t. Instead, take the first step. Send the email. Book the call. Apply for the thing.

And if you’re looking for a community of people doing the same, that’s what the Career Change Accelerator is for. Applications are open now.

Because courage isn’t about being fearless. It’s about feeling the fear and moving anyway.

Happy Escaping!
