Just brilliant. Love the work that Sarah and Helen are doing. This is like having a little toolkit of career development advice in your back pocket
As an Olympian-turned-edupreneur who’s navigated 65+ jobs across 40+ countries (with 200+ résumés to prove it!), I can honestly say this podcast feels like home. The Squiggly Careers conversations are like sitting inside my own upside-down brain—encouraging, validating, and wildly useful. I especially loved the recent September “new year” reset episode—spot on! Thank you for championing non-linear paths, pivots, and portfolio lives with such wisdom and warmth. Keep the squiggles coming!
