#142 - In this episode, Dr. Tega dismantles the myth that career changers must accept lower salaries when pivoting to new industries. She identifies three psychological reasons professionals undervalue themselves during transitions, then walks through her proven seven-step salary strategy used by clients who have successfully increased their compensation during industry pivots.
The episode covers calculating realistic budgets, researching market value across industries, positioning transferable skills as high-value assets, and confidently negotiating offers even without direct experience. Dr. Tega includes specific language patterns and examples for handling the "you don't have direct experience" objection in interviews while maintaining salary expectations.
