BOOM! What a huge win for Komal George! πŸ™Œ

This is such an valuable WIN for any parent ❀️

Sometimes we fall into the trap of managing a family around our job or career. I've been there several times and I am finally putting a STOP to it.

My career and my job MUST align with my home life and my family! Now that I understand that and I value it as an important part of my life, it is easy to say NO to things that don't align with my values.

For Komal George, aligning her values and passions in her pharmacy career has meant more time with my family and being present to their growth and feeling fulfilled in hers!

She has embedded a growth mindset in all that she does, she knows her worth, AND she is also able to stay grounded enough to build learning into all that she does.

I'm diving deep into the importance of career clarity in the world of pharmacy πŸ‘Œ

I start by defining what career clarity truly means, I outline the six key reasons why career clarity should be part of every pharmacist's plan, and then I dive into how YOU can achieve it.

Below are some key takeaway messages from the episode:
βœ…Start with self-reflection by writing down what truly matters to you, what work aspects bring you joy, and assess your skills/strengths/weaknesses.
βœ…Seek learning opportunities aligned with your goals like training, workshops or mentorship to build required skills.
βœ…Evaluate your priorities and make adjustments to improve work-life balance and self-care.
βœ…Schedule regular check-ins to continuously assess your trajectory and make adjustments to stay on track with aspirations.

By taking intentional steps towards self-discovery and career clarity, I believe you can unlock a more fulfilling, purpose-driven professional journey. I encourage self-reflection, skills development and consistent re-evaluation to achieve the career you desire.

How clear do you feel on your career related goals?! Let me know in the comments πŸ‘‡

I asked Tim Ulbrich, , how aligning his values and passions helped him to create a career AND business of his dreams, all while maintaining a successful and happy family life with his wife and 4 children....and this is what he said:

"Before you start running with a career plan, it's necessary to get clear on where you are trying to go and why you are trying to go there.

If we aren't careful, we can find ourselves living our lives based on someone else's expectations (or our perception of those expectations which may or may not be real).

Rabbi Zusya said "In the coming world, they will not ask me: 'Why were you not Moses?' They will ask me: 'Why were you not Zusya?”

Read and re-read this statement with your own name included.

Reflect upon it deeply.

Who are you trying to be?
Where are you trying to go?
Are you living your life or someone else's expectations of your life?"

If you're interested in hearing more on this topic, Tim Ulbrich, PharmD and I recorded a podcast episode ( #81) around the value of knowing your WHY! Go and check it out...

I asked how aligning her values and passions with her career has filled her life with purpose, intention and joy.

This is what she said:

"When I moved from having a career [what I do for money] to a vocation [where my great interest meets the needs of the world] everything changed.

Work was fun.

Money was so much easier to earn.

And my whole life (family, health, relationships) all benefited from a truly fulfilled Jamie.

I highly recommend finding your vocation. 10/10!"

πŸ™Œ if this resonates with you because hearing this fills me with joy, inspiration, and motivation to continue working on understanding more about my own values and passions and building a career of my dreams!!!

Key learnings from this episode:
● Started my career in UK hospital pharmacy before moving to UAE. I faced the obstacle of lacking connections and struggled to find a pharmacy role. I overcame this by networking and persevering until an opportunity arose in emergency medical services.

● Gained project management, leadership, and teaching skills in UAE - very different from a clinical pharmacist role in a hospital

● I returned to hospital pharmacy in UAE to regain a pharmacy community and patient interaction. Faced work-life balance challenges after having a child, so moved back to UK.

● Rebuilt clinical skills through locum work. Lacked confidence being away from NHS so reflected on strengths/experience to target 8a roles.

● Discovered passion for paediatrics during maternity leave cover role. Combined this with teaching role which was a dream job for me! Faced burnout from demands of role, a second baby, and long commute. Resigned to prioritise my wellbeing.

● Launched online business and Pharmacist Diaries podcast by following joy and creativity. Stepped outside comfort zone to grow a platform and build a community.

● I emphasise the importance of reflection, discovering passions, taking chances on new ventures, and finding fulfillment in your pharmacy career.

Harpreet Chana, the founder of the , was this pharmacist some time ago.

She never really spent time or effort trying to understand her values but she knew when she was suffering with stress and burnout that something wasn't right.

If she knew then what she knows now, she wouldn't have stayed so long in the role was was in.

Fundamentally, her values were completely misaligned with those of the organisation she worked for, and that's why she burnt out. It's why many pharmacists burnout.

Since then she has worked hard on understanding herself better and what she stands for, and she is genuinely living a life of passion, joy and fulfilment.

An important to remember here is that your passions and values will evolve and change over time as you grow as a person...

Therefore this exercise of continuously assessing what you are passionate about and what your values are will have an impact on what you are doing and how you fulfil those values and passions!

was a pharmacist who found it challenging to prioritise her values and passions when she was a newly qualified pharmacist, BUT...

Once she had the confidence and several years of experience, she was able to focus on what she valued and what she was passionate about.

In community pharmacy, she felt as though she was providing a valuable service to her customers, but she didn't quite feel fulfilled. She knew that she wanted to do more to help people in a different way. She also wanted a better work life balance, so she made a difficult decision to leave community pharmacy and pursue a career in general practice.

When she started her GP role, one of the values she set out was that she wanted to finish work at 4pm every day so she could collect my children.

She could only ask for her value to be met in this setting as in her previous role, the pharmacy was open long hours so this would simply not be possible.

This is a value that she still instills into her routine - 9 years later!

This has enabled her to be present when most needed during her teenagers' lives which makes her feel great and fulfilled!
