Are you part of the 52% of people unhappy in their careers? In this episode of The Guiding Voice, we sit down with global career strategist Stephen Shortt to transform your career confusion into absolute clarity.

Stephen breaks down his transformative IDEAL and HAPPY frameworks—tools designed to help you build a career by choice, not chance. We explore the "Three Circles" of career success (Aptitude, Interest, and Demand), the real reason people fail at career transitions, and why "doing what you love" might actually be bad advice.

In this video, you’ll learn:

The IDEAL Framework: Interest, Demand, Enthusiasm, and the 4 Lenses (Learning, Leadership, Longevity, Lifestyle).
The HAPPY Framework: How to set "End Goals" vs. "Means Goals" to avoid an unfulfilled life.
Why Prompt Engineering isn't a career—it's a communication skill.
The "Vibe Coding" revolution and the future of AI-driven work.
How to balance passion with practicality when you have bills to pay.
