Career Growth for Working Women | Career Advancement, Overwhelm, Clarity, Visibility, Burnout Recovery
Do you feel stuck in a role you have outgrown, but unsure how to make your next move without risking your reputation or burning out?
Are you doing high-level work, carrying invisible responsibility, and still wondering why your impact is not reflected in your title or pay?
Do you know you are capable of more, but feel unclear on how to position yourself for a promotion or raise without working even harder?
Are you tired of waiting to be noticed and ready to be compensated for the value you already bring?
You are in the right place.
Career Growth for Working Women is the podcast for ambitious corporate women who want to advance their careers, increase their income, and gain recognition without overworking, people-pleasing, or shrinking to fit outdated expectations.
I am Shannon, a Promotion and Compensation Coach, and I help women fast-track their next promotion by teaching them how to show their value so clearly that leadership cannot overlook them.
Through my 5% Method, we focus on positioning you for meaningful raises, promotions, and career growth because when you consistently perform above and beyond, your pay should too.
Each week, you will get honest conversations, practical strategy, and mindset shifts around career advancement, visibility, burnout recovery, confidence, and compensation so you can grow your career sustainably and strategically.
Grab your coffee, or reheat it for the third time, and let’s talk about how to grow your career in a way that actually pays off.

79 | When Your Career No Longer Fits: How to Explore What’s Next With Courage & Clarity featuring Stephanie Cordes
If you’ve ever found yourself staring at your calendar, your inbox, or the next exhausting workweek wondering… “Do I still want this life?” you’re not alone and you are absolutely in the right place.
Today’s guest, Stephanie Cordes, is a Career Ownership Coach with The Entrepreneur Source who helps women explore new paths with confidence... whether that’s a career shift, entrepreneurship, or simply taking back ownership of their next chapter. After 20 years in corporate and a season of intense personal and family challenges, Stephanie had her own turning point. It was the moment she realized the life she was living no longer aligned with the life she wanted.
In this conversation, Stephanie brings the supportive, grounded guidance she’s known for - part coach, part thought-partner, part “career therapist” - to help you rethink what’s possible and explore what you truly want next.
In this episode, we explore:
✅ The life-changing moment that caused Stephanie to question her entire career path
✅ How to recognize when your career no longer matches your values or your reality
✅ Why many working moms feel trapped in careers that don’t fit — and how to break that cycle
✅ What career ownership really means (and why it matters more than ever)
✅ How to separate fear from intuition when exploring a change
✅ The truth about franchising, entrepreneurship, and alternative paths
✅ Why small steps count — and why they’re often the smartest way forward
✅ How to explore new possibilities without blowing up your life
✅ What to do when guilt shows up as you dream bigger
✅ A simple curiosity challenge to help you reconnect with what you really want
