Stop Calling It Job Hopping: It's Career Growth - Featuring Shannon Shores

<p>Shannon Shores, social worker turned entrepreneur, business owner, and consultant, joins us to torch the myth that career success has to look like one straight line up a corporate ladder. Shannon&#39;s path has taken her from clinical social work to founding and selling a nationwide STD-testing company, into executive roles, and back out again — and she&#39;s here to explain why that kind of movement isn&#39;t &quot;job hopping,&quot; it&#39;s strategy.</p><p>We dig into her &quot;captain vs. crew&quot; framework for knowing when you&#39;re built to lead vs. support, why burnout really means losing your purpose (not just working too many hours), and how to walk into an interview knowing you&#39;re evaluating them just as much as they&#39;re evaluating you. Shannon also breaks down why job-hopping got such a bad reputation in the first place, and why the real red flag isn&#39;t changing jobs — it&#39;s staying somewhere long after you&#39;ve stopped growing.</p><p>If you&#39;ve ever felt guilty for outgrowing a job, this episode is your permission slip.</p><p>Connect with Shannon on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/shannon-shores/</p>
