Love your job? Want to talk about it?

The When I Grow Up Podcast explores people's career journey from their very first dreams as a child to where they have ended up.

I believe that we can find what we truly love in any career field and it's my mission to give listeners hope that they can find a career they truly love by tapping into the "why" of their "when I grow up" story.

By hearing from you (and others who love what they do), listeners get to hear the wide variety of career journeys and gain permission to lean into their values and purpose beyond a job title. By joining me in this podcast, you get the chance to inspire others to pursue what they love.

My favorite part is getting to see how sometimes the smallest part of childhood dreams carry through into adult dream jobs.

Book Kali To speak

I’m a therapist and career coach who absolutely loves what I do! With over 16 years of experience as a licensed counselor combined with my focused training on career coaching I have the unique opportunity to speak to both the mental health and career crises of our world today!

As a therapist, I have seen the impact a poor career move can have on our mental health and I grew tired of only talking about one part of the work that needs to be done.

So I made a decision to change that! It wasn’t enough to just help people cope with stress when I knew the keys to long-lasting fulfillment came from finding and pursuing your purpose.

I believe that finding fulfilling work begins with understanding what truly excites you about your work and then taking clear steps toward a career that both sustains and fulfills you.

Book Kali To speak

"If you're looking for someone with the credibility and relatability to speak about making career changes, Kali should be your go-to!"

Collaborating with Kali as a guest on The Millennial Reset has added such value to not only my podcast audience, but also in my own life. Her varied background and experience makes the conversation easy and seamless since she is able to eloquently and simply speak to the topics. Kali is able to explain things in a way that is impactful, yet easy to comprehend, understand, and implement. She brings a very unique perspective that's based on her expansive education and background, but also from personal experience, which makes it feel like she's right there with you. If you're looking for someone with the credibility and relatability to speak about making career changes, Kali should be your go-to!
