    Simply the Best!
    I have found tremendous value in hearing REAL stories of how people have made intentional career changes. The podcast is insightful, entertaining, and they’re consistently seeking to align career change advice with latest empirical evidence. I’ve read the book, met with Scott personally, and can with certainty say they’re the real deal!
  • bcchuck
    Great podcast!
    It’s hard to find good career changing podcasts! Hoping this is a good one! So far so good!
  • manjuicii
    Best for shared origin stories
    I have not found a better source of honest storytelling about career-change journeys. Their messaging is consistent and it’s possible to learn from the podcasts whether you purchase a product (enroll in additional resources) or not!
  • Dougiedougiedoug
    It’s about so much more!
    The career change content is fantastic and provides practical advice and processes to help you make a change. But the additional focus on topics like mindset address the reasons why we do t make these changes. Well done!
  • Kalie Michel
    Networking
    #209 had practical tips and gave easy language and understanding for how to make introductions and network to people you don’t yet know. Super grateful for the resources they provided!
  • araimond
    Solid Career Advice
    Been listening to this podcast for a few years now and always come back to it when I’m starting to feel like I’m in a rut. They do a great job with interviewing people with real-world challenges and are honest about what to expect. Just bought the book since I’d like to have a hard copy to reference so I can outline what’s really important for my career path.
  • Walk 2 Wealth
    Amazing show!
    I am so glad I came across this show! I’ve taken so many actionable and practical nuggets of advice to implement. Love tuning in!
  • kcat_22
    Definitely worth it!
    I came across this podcast a few months back, and was hooked! As a career professional, I’m always on the lookout for high-quality podcasts that I can share with my clients and colleagues…this one made the list! The topics and conversations are engaging and relevant, and a great space for new learning and validation. I highly recommend!!
  • James Grover Windham
    Decent but there’s a catch…
    There are some good nuggets here and there, but it’s really just selling Career Coaching to people that are pleading for any help they can get. I had a call or two with them, and the price tag is very steep. Especially for people who are stuck in bad career situations and just want help getting out. Kind of predatory…
  • kelizmahan
    Really great podcast!
    Found HTYC through the Career Contessa podcast (thank you Spotify suggested podcasts)…great for overall career development, I even scheduled a call with Cindy to go over some questions I had and she was amazing!
  • Lo Rush
    Imposter Syndrome - so accurate!
    Loved this episode with Cindy hosting- more please! Awesome perspective on imposter syndrome and great takeaways from her and Kate.
  • Footfoot79
    Best Career Podcast!!!

  • Lauren P in DC
    25% Inspiration 75% ACTIONable Techniques
    This podcast is a lifeline as I tolerate a job that pays well but leaves me lackluster. I found it by googling 'should I quit?' Or 'Fear of taking risk'. It's revitalizing my vision for meaningful work and finding a tribe I feel connected to. I'm so grateful for this high quality content!!!
  • malfoxley

    Actional Advice - Great Conversation
    I just listened to the episode with Alexandra Carter about Making Conversations and Negotiations Work for You. So many take-aways from beginning to channel your VALUE well before money is mentioned, to asking open-ended questions and listening. Well done, Scott Anthony Barlow and Alexandra Carter!
  • emj-js

  • andybdyson
    Best career resource
    Each episode has so much relevant information. I’m also doing their free 8-day videos, which are short and to the point, but helpful in determining why and what you might be able to do next.
  • famador3

  • WittyWhitt
    Not Just a JOB
    Scott- I just discovered your podcast and I am so happy I did. While I haven't listened to many episodes YET, the ones I have listened to resonate with me on a deep level. In particular, as I was listening to episode 274 from Marc, I felt like the conversation you were having with Kelly was one I have with my clients. I believe it is possible and important to do work we find fulfilling and fits within the life we design. For too long we've chosen professions or worse not chosen and just ended up somewhere that serves a financial end, but robs us of our joy and drains our spirit. I was one of those people. It wasn't until I got real with myself about my values and priorities and got over my fear of leaving a well paying and cushy job that I was able to move into work that I not only enjoy but allows me to make a direct difference in the lives of others. I connected with Kelly and her journey. Now that I know better and want to spread the word. I will be sharing your podcast as a resource and look forward to learning from you and your community one episode at a time. Thanks!
  • MoFunke
    Episode 289 blew my mind!
    This was so necessary for me to hear today. This blew my mind. I need to listen to what the universe is telling me I should be doing! Take a listen... you won’t regret it! ✨👍🏻✨
  • Tom Rubens
    Scott is a great interviewer
    Just listened to your conversation with Michael Hyatt. Great job of bringing out his best stuff! Keep up the great work, Scott!
  • berkkat
    Thanks for everything!
    This podcast was has been tremendously influential for me this year as I’ve finally transitioned into my new career path. There’s so much insight and advice for every stage of the process- from trying to figure out what is even out there to interviewing, landing the job and negotiating pay. So valuable and entertaining too!
  • Brooke Craven

  • Kaity_Kelley622
    I’m not alone.
    It’s great to hear that I am not alone in the way I feel about my current job/career. Although I can’t take time off to do my soul searching, Kelly has inspired me to really dig in finding the right career.
  • KP4210
    Incredibly helpful!
    I've been feeling stuck in my career and found this podcast in my research. Great conversations and ideas on how to move myself forward. Highly recommend!
  • krose55
    A hidden gem for any career changer or coach
    I was so surprised at the high quality of this podcast. As someone who has consumed quite a few different career advice pods and articles, I'm used to having to squeeze out value from a bunch of fluffy bullet points or up-selling type of content. But with this podcast, the advice feels juicy, relevant, and really intuitive all at once. Thank you!
  • gratitudeLZ
    If you feel lost about career happiness, this is the podcast to listen to
    I'm so glad to have chanced upon Happen To Your Career. Scott Barlow (the host) is a joy to listen to. He offers great insight about all kinds of career advice through interviews with people who've gone through all kinds of career changes, and you can tell that he's genuinely interested in helping people. This podcast exudes positivity, compassion, and practical advice. If you're feeling lost about how to achieve career happiness, this podcast is your guiding light.

    A Lot To Learn
    I just finished today's podcast "Avoid The Application Black Hole" and I thought it was great. As a copywriter, I like to think of myself as a strong cover letter writer but I got a lot out of it. I found myself both nodding along and saying "Yep, that's how I do it", and also saying "hmm, never looked at it that way." (Both validation and education, what more could you want in a podcast?) I think the advice was spot on, actionable, and I haven't heard it discussed that way anywhere else. So I think it can help a lot of people. I haven't listened to many of the shows, but as I'm going through a pretty intense career struggle of my own, I'm looking forward to hearing more. I'm going to need all the help I can get.
  • Big Drew 88
    Good concept, sloppy approach
    I like the concept of the podcast but feel like I’m trying to be sold on their coaching in every episode I’ve listened to.
  • Visi0nAir
    Fantastic resource and team for finding your career happiness
    Podcast is packed with great interviews and resources that inspire and motivate people to find a better career fit. The HTYC team and website expands more with webinars, books and many articles (good amount are free) to further help you on your search for a better job. This is now my main Career podcast that I listen to.
  • Sara H1
    Finding a Career you love is possible for everyone
    Scott has a way of breaking down the incredibly complex process of finding a career you love. Not only will you discover action steps to take but you will believe that you can find a career you love. Through listening to HTYC I have discovered that there are many things that I thought where true and are not which held me back before. For example is it not the technical skill you have but the soft skills that make the impact in your career. Think about your past careers and how the technical skills may have gotten you a start in the job it’s the soft skills and figuring out the 20% that makes the most impact that will get you moving forward. Check out the free 8 day email course too!
  • Unstuckable
    Gives you courage to be yourself in your work!
    Love the stories Scott shares via his diverse array of guests to empower you to work on your terms! He shares both tactical advice and insightful wisdom to give you the courage to design work that works for you! If you are considering a career change, start listening!
  • Kevin32183
    Great resource for anyone looking for a help in career transition
    Really enjoy the podcast for its stories on people transitioned into a different field. Comforting to know and hear other people that have gone through something similar.
  • Adjobology
    Happen to Your Career makes things happen
    Scott's a great interviewer. He does his homework and probes for hidden gems of advice that are practical and actionable.
  • ATGBrian
    Great show and guests, especially Caroline Adams
    Scott, I'm very impressed with what I've heard so far. There are a lot podcasts out there, but this is a rare gem for anyone facing the all-too common challenges that present themselves in the context of career happiness. I particularly enjoyed your show with Caroline Adams; such wonderful insight from a perspective that resonates strongly with my own and those of my friends, colleagues and clients. More like Caroline (or more Caroline), please!
  • KaraFortier
    Thank you...
    Thanks to the work you’ve been doing on this podcast and your blog, I’m starting a certificate program in January that I never imagined I’d have the nerve to do. I love how your methodology kind of takes us through the “back door” and helps us pass by the blocks we might have that make us feel stuck and hopeless. Anyone who’s open to guidance and thinking big just for a minute might rediscover dreams once discarded as unrealistic. Thanks for helping so many of us figure things out!
  • J. Barshop
    Awesome show, highly recommend!
    Scott and his guests provide some incredibly compelling content on how to achieve your big dreams. Highly recommend listening and subscribing to the Happen to Your Career if you want the knowledge AND mindsets to become the very best version of yourself (and reach all of your overall goals as a result)!
  • Lizzie Duran
    Love, love, love this must hear show!!
    I cannot even begin to tell you how much I absolutely love this show. A Monday is not a Monday without a new episode of Happen to Your Career. I have gained so much knowledge, insight and respect from Scott and the other guests on the show. I love the honesty, the diversity of the people and careers discussed. One last note, not only do I love the cool music at the beginning of the show, but Scott has the sexiest laugh...an added bonus! Haha
  • Michal7946773179
    This is career change gold !
    Listening to Scott is part of my feel good start to my Monday ritual. I learn something new from every episode, there is a reason why this podcast has been around for 200 episodes. If you are considering career change or a fan of self improvement, this is the only podcast you need. Take the plunge and tune in, you won’t regret it !
  • lbmedtech
    Love this, so many tips/tricks to implement!
    I love listening to Scott and his team, so much actionable information that you can take away and implement and he truly cares about people and their happiness. Some episodes I have listened to several times in a row! It was Scott's podcast that lead me to contact one of his coaches and they have helped me implement some major mindset changes in my own life. Highly recommend to anyone interested in finding work that suits them.
  • SparkAngelaWagnerCoaching
    Listen In!
    An informative show that delves deep into what drives our passions and careers, told through the personal experiences and anecdotes of Scott and his guests. He has a friendly, conversational demeanor, (and as others have said, a great voice for radio!), and allows his guests to tell their stories while also coaxing out the inspirational and life-changing nuggets that make this show a must-listen. Thank you, Scott, for all you do!
  • Lomart17
    Gain confidence and change your career
    I happened upon this podcast and it is exactly what I didn't know I needed. As someone who has been struggling with a career change for several years, having resources and stories that I can relate to and gain wisdom from has motivated me to take action. I am now confident that I too can be happy in my career with hard work and the help of HTYC.
  • Evangelia Leclaire
    My favorite career podcasts!
    Scott, his team and guests provide premium value in this podcast. There are so many great episodes here and I tune in to sharpen my own saw as a professional in the career development space. As I career coach, I recommend many of my clients to listen to this podcast and I even send them direct links to those that I know are relevant. There are great people on this podcast and working behind the scenes for it.
  • emi87red
    Captivating, inspirational, I can do it momentum takeaway
    I can change my life IF I take action - honestly this podcast was awesome! Top of the line advice for FREE--- action oriented steps toward a life/career that you love back.

Totally a must listen podcast that only offers the most current career trends equipped with some amazing thought leaders and average people, who have found a system that worked for them and ran with it! I could go on --- I'm definitely a listener for life.
