"""If you're thinking about a change of career, or are feeling uninspired in your current job, this is an absolute must read. The book offers a very balanced approach to 'career change'; encouraging the reader to not only think about the opportunities available in a new career, but also to explore whether a change of mindset would bring back the joy to a current career. But this is not just a book for those with years of experience of the work place behind them. I would strongly encourage people at the start of their working lives to read this book - it may just encourage them to take a different path from one that they think is expected of them.....An absolutely fantastic read!!"" ""Well written and very easy to read with plenty of light hearted moments. I loved the real world examples and the try it yourself suggestions to help implement the topic of each chapter. Highly recommended for anyone searching for more satisfaction at work. I'm looking forward to testing out some of the suggestions myself."" ""I picked up this book out of interest, as a 70 year old Physiotherapist, who has had to adapt throughout my 50 year professional life. The stories and advice in the book absolutely reflect my experience...I intend to keep this book in my clinic - I believe many of my patients could also benefit from this book."" ""This was a great read, to focus the mind on the practical and achievable steps that it is possible to take, to make work-life more enjoyable. The author writes in a relaxed and accessible style, meaning that reading this book feels like you're in conversation with her. I particularly liked the real life case studies, which really brought the concepts alive. Don't hesitate to buy it!"" ""Too often in life, we settle for second best when it comes to our job or career and do not have the confidence to really figure out our passions and dream job. Having read this book, I have finally found a publication which is filled with inspiration, insights, life stories and real practical advice about taking the leap towards finding a much more fulfilling career."" ""I love my work (most of the time) but reading Yesmin's book has reminded me the importance of checking in on myself, taking time out to reflect and whether I want to remain, tweak, dip, or leap! This book is so informative and thought provoking and is peppered with insightful guidance and real-life examples that make it an absolute joy to read. It's a book with infectious energy that will leave you feeling positive, motivated, focused and ready for change, in whatever form that takes. My copy will be enjoyed more than once. Totally recommend!"" ""As a former HR Manager who has pivoted their career big time in the past five years, I highly recommend this book to anyone considering whether to quit. The author walks you through many questions to consider before you decide whether to quit or explore other options. A MUST read."""
