Rebecca Kacaba spent a decade chasing the highflier lawyer life.
</p>
<p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
Being an M&A attorney in Canada’s financial district felt important — and it came with all the perks she’d dreamed of: A fancy office, assistants, fresh lattes, powerful clients, and a salary to match the stakes.
</p>
<p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
But in early 2018, a sense of restlessness kicked in and Kacaba began to question the career she had spent years training for.
</p>
<p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
So, she left the legal profession and launched a cloud-based software company to help streamline the fundraising process for startups.
</p>
<p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
Kacaba’s yearning for something new is common: She is one of over

readers we surveyed who have undergone dramatic career shifts.

<p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
In recent decades,

</a>
in work culture have led to a more transient workforce. At the same time, advancements in modern medicine mean we are living — and working — longer, testing the virtues of professional monogamy.
</p>
<p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
What leads people like Rebecca to make dramatic career shifts? What's it like to take the leap? And is it time to re-examine the notion that we're only meant to have one career for life?
</p>
<p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
To find out, we spoke with workplace psychologists, career experts, and dozens of folks who had dramatic job shifts.

The case for generalism
</strong>
</h4>
<p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
For generations, committing to a single profession has been deemed to offer a competitive advantage and a safer income.
</p>
<p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
But over the past decade or so, specializing in a single profession has quietly come under attack by proponents of

generalism

, which encourages professional “range.”

, calling for an end to the linear trajectory of education, work, and retirement.
</p>
<p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
“If you now work into your 70s or 80s in a rapidly changing job market, then… [we must set] time aside to make fundamental investments in re-learning and re-skilling,” the professors argue, adding that technological disruption is making the multi-career pathway inevitable.

What we want vs. what we do

seems to suggest big career changes are unusual.
</p>
<p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
Why are we still so hesitant to embrace a new philosophy of work?
</p>
<p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
Charles Ponti, one of hundreds of readers who responded to our November survey, says that’s because our careers and identities are so closely connected.
</p>
<p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
“I spent several years in finance and sales that were not fulfilling in any way,” he tells
<em>

</em>
. “That lack of fulfillment, however, was not enough to overcome the feeling that I had already invested too much time into this particular career.”
</p>
<p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
“I had begun to identify with the roles I disliked doing, which made me feel trapped,” he adds. “It felt impossible to start over.”
</p>
<p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
Still, Ponti took the plunge, moving from sales to art, before switching again to engineering and to product management.
</p>
<p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
“It [actually] took 3-5 months to start over, and I essentially succeeded within the first month,” he says.

“I convinced myself I had a goal of getting involved in sales analytics… but I was not fond of sales… I was lazy in seeking that position — I wanted out from golf… it was a mistake for me to take the job and skip addressing what I wanted long-term,” he says.
</p>

</h2>
<p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
Every year, I -- Bobby AKA GaryBee AKA your favorite Thoughts Leader’s favorite Thought Leader -- make a resolution to drop some lbs.
</p>
<p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
I also fail.

<p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
But a funny thing happened this year… I didn’t even need to make a resolution.
</p>
<p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
Why? Because since I started
<a style="-webkit-text-fill-color: #d62829; color: #d62829; text-decoration: none;">
Noom
</a>
last year, I’ve slowly but surely changed my habits and dropped more weight than I ever imagined.

Noom year, Noom me

<p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
Noom’s approach to changing your eating habits works by
<a style="-webkit-text-fill-color: #d62829; color: #d62829; text-decoration: none;">
focusing on 3 common (and underutilized) areas
</a>
.
</p>
<p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
<strong>
Knowledge:
</strong>
Learn what to eat, why you make the choices you do, and how to build new habits that last -- all on your own terms and pace.
</p>
<p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
<strong>
Flexibility:
</strong>
Noom accommodates your favorite foods, existing schedule, and lifestyle, so making a change doesn’t feel overwhelming.
</p>
<p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
<strong>
Support
</strong>
: Your
<a style="-webkit-text-fill-color: #d62829; color: #d62829; text-decoration: none;">
one-on-one coach plus the Noom community
</a>
support -- not pressure -- you on your way to success.
</p>
<p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
That means unlike traditional New Year’s Resolutions, you can stick with it for the long haul.
