Hi. I'm Zakkee. I left the comfort of my engineering career to pursue what I believe is much more important than the paycheck I was getting: happiness. I won't pretend I have it figured out, but 2 years later, I know I've learned this much: it's about the journey, not the destination. In this podcast, I'm putting comfort zones aside to share lessons learned in personal and professional growth that will benefit anyone considering a new career path. Thank you for joining me in Navigating Career Change!

×(Recorded February 19, 2021) A few days ago, I was feeling really down and upset as I was trying to build my new COO business. Why was it such a struggle? It felt so hard and frustrating and it's supposed to feel fun and amazing and exciting and effortless because I'm doing what I love! Well, I sat down and journaled out my thoughts to "get the problem out of me" and decided to share what I wrote because it helped SO MUCH. This is a demonstration of why I believe in the power of journaling (not exclusively but one technique). I wish you all the best in your problem solving as well. 💙 (music: Jay-Z - U Don't Know)…
(Recorded February 19, 2021) This episode is all about the how and why behind my current "Small Biz COO" business. I'm sharing my thought process behind launching it, why I'm so confident that it will be successful, and the boxes that it checks. The amazing thing btw? I'm finally pursuing something that checks off ALL of my boxes! How exciting! And it only took 3 years... not bad. (Spoiler alert - that itself is why it can't lose.....) (music: Jay-Z- U Don't Know)…
Yes, this is exactly what it sounds like: the story of the moment I knew beyond any more wonder that what I had gone through was what most people refer to as a "midlife crisis". Book Referenced: Breaking the Habit of Being Yourself by Dr. Joe Dispenza

Recorded about a week after my first ever stand up comedy set. This is the rough draft of my reflections. Then made notes on a structured way to present my ideas and cover something I missed. Haven't had a chance to do that yet so I figured I'd share the imperfect version in the meantime....
(Recorded September 25, 2020) Focus. It's something I have not exactly embodied since I walked out the door (on my career) and allowed myself to consider anything & everything a possibility. The positives: I had/have the confidence to pursue anything, I'm flexible, and I ended up trying a huge variety of things (& learning a ton along the way). The potential trap: a lack of focus, which led to decreased productivity and added frustrations stemming from that. The day before recording this episode, I chatted with Jenny Paul (@livelongandhustle on Instagram) and she helped me to see things I just wasnt seeing before (& man it felt like such a relief!). She helped me to see the cohesion (?) in several of the ideas I was already working on and provided some general guidance on how to build it out. The most exciting thing for me was having something real to pursue that accomplished so many of the objectives I've been trying to check off separately: do something I enjoy, help others on similar positions I was/am in, support small businesses, stay in touch with business trends, stay in control of myself/time, and make an income. Hopefully this episode provides some value to you, helps you see the value of focus (see also btw: flow state!), and fills in some more of my own entrepreneurial journey. Also, please do check out Jennys content for small businesses & female entrepreneurs - can't say enough and you'll see why! Thanks for listening ! (Theme music: "U Don't Know" by Jay-Z)…

(Recorded Aug 30, 2020) You may be wondering what a fantasy football draft has to do with career change... Fair question. I've been listening to a LOT of fantasy football analysis on Sirius and one of the things that the hosts do is do live drafts on their radio shows. I couldn't help but think how awesome it is that they get PAID to not only study (fantasy) football and talk about it on international radio, but to actually draft their teams live or comment on/interview others' strategies while they draft... So I thought I'd give it a shot and see how I fared. And fare I did... (I think...?). At the end of the day, the point is that if someone offered me THAT dream job tomorrow and asked to see my portfolio, it would now include this podcast episode! Experience, right?! Enjoy & good luck with your fantasy season. Its sure to be a crazy one.…
(Recorded Aug 13, 2020) You know when you're like out of work for 2 years and you feel like you're bashing your head against the wall cause you don't know what you're SUPPOSED to be doing with yourself or how to make money? You've applied for jobs and gotten zero response... What do you do? Duh - try something else! So I tried ecommerce. Dropshipping specifically. I got myself some courses, then got myself a mentorship program, and got some sales! I was doing everything right and was well on my way to a shiny new passive income stream cause that's how it goes... But that's just not how it goes. In this episode, I share my experiences and my opinions about ecommerce (dropshipping especially), why it's a great idea, and why you probably don't want to pursue it...…
(June 5, 2020) In this episode, I share a little more about what my goals really are from a more macro perspective. What am I trying to do with my life? What am I working towards in addition to a new career? Who do I think I am to have these thoughts? And who benefits from the sacrifices and decisions that I've made? Hint: it's a lot bigger than me...…
(Recorded May 25, 2020) Basically, when I started my search for a new career, it wasnt just to do something different or make more money. It truly was so that I could be more happy! I knew I could make more money doing something that I loved doing. I saw my high school yearbook quote that said something along the lines of "Pursue your passions" & felt ashamed that I hadn't done that so far... Well, as my wonderfully supportive wife reminded me: "You are!" & the sentiment of "this is who you are". #perspective. I thought it was something to be ashamed of, but it's quite the opposite if i choose to see it that way. It's storytime, kids. Grab a seat.…
(Recorded May 15, 2020) The evolution continues! I decided to rename this podcast as I continue to find a way to offer what I can. I have and continue to have conversations with so many people who are unhappy with their jobs or careers. One of the things that I notice is that people don't realize the world of possibilities that exist nowadays with the internet / social media. I spend a lot of time researching the possibilites (without realizing it) and have ZERO doubt that i am going to be successful in my next careers, so I'll use my own story as the example of someone who "actually did it". How cool to be able to listen to the journey as it unfolds...!…
(Recorded May 20, 2020) Over the May long weekend, I celebrated the launch of allegorychai.com AND my first ecommerce sale. I was vibrating high! Then I crashed into a depressive mindset on Monday and it persisted & was furthered on Wednesday when I recorded this episode. I always knew I wanted the shitty days to be part of the story that I told, but I hadn't been doing a great job of capturing them before this. In typical poetic fashion, life poked me and I paid attention: if I believe that I am the kind of person who has a story worth telling, I have to not only capture it all, but continue to attack my vulnerabilities and push myself to get stronger and better every day. In this episode, I don't describe how I came out of the poor mindset and feelings of depression because I hadn't when I recorded this... I talk about it because it's my truth. Tom Bilyeu posted something on his Insta story recently to the effect of "don't try to suppress the negative emotions or hide from them because they will always exist. The key is to learn how to handle them." I still haven't done a great job with applying that concept, but it is certainly something I want to work harder on. (For the record, Tom's suggestion was about habit loop triggers, which may be a topic for another day on this podcast...?)…
(Recorded May 16, 2020) Ok, technically it wasn't quite 1 paycheck - it was actually LESS than 1 paycheck! The paycheck I refer to is the one I made as an engineer. I baffled many people over these 2 years by not working and barely making income. I really appreciated the concern that I got from people about it (& in a sick way, I kinda enjoyed watching people awkwardly ask me about this stuff cause I know how crazy it is how I am the way I am...), but I know that even more people than that wondered and didn't ask. Well, I'm breaking it down in this episode. Spolier alert - there's no overnight formula that I used to stretch my money starting when I quit my 9-5. It was many contributing factors that I know anyone can implement for themselves if they're truly willing to.…
(Recorded May 15, 2020) I can't stand the way that society has forced us to attach the value that we do to money. People attach their self-worth to what's in their bank account & give that power to others as well. For a while, I resisted the idea of making a lot of money for myself for this reason (plus some weird act of protest to a societal force & a genuine fear of failure if I actually went for it). Today, I have a different perspective though: it's all relative. It's just a matter of how you choose to view money - is it hard to find, easy to accumulate, does it imply vanity, can it truly be used for good, is there always an evil behind large amounts of it? In this episode, i talk my way through these kinds of thoughts & yes, it still drives me crazy that money is so commonly linked to our sense of self-worth! Don't give that power to anyone (or in this case anything) else. Keep that power for yourself and decide what your own sense of self-worth is OUTSIDE of what's in the bank!…
(Recorded April 9, 2020) This whole staying at home in quarantine thing really didn't bother me that much at all... You're saying I have to stay home, try to figure out a new way to work, take care of my baby, do chores, and not lose my mind? Sounds like the last 18 months of my life! I'm a fuckin pro at this already! In fact, I was even more motivated cause it felt like as soon as I finally got my head on right and ready to work, the whole world was like "hold the door, we're coming too!" and started working from home - and starting online businesses too! In this episode, I offer the learnings from trying to become a good "at home worker"... Shower every day, change your clothes.. You know.. Obvious, not obvious stuff!…
