Leadership has changed. Most advice hasn't.
The Career Refresh is for leaders and senior professionals who are done operating on a model that no longer fits, whether that means leading differently in the role they're in, or making a strategic move to the role they want next.
Each episode explores what it actually takes to lead when the stakes are high, the systems are messy, and certainty is in ... more

Jill’s podcast is like having lunch with your most successful, most personable, no-nonsense friend. Love it!
Jill tells it like it is! This episode nails a pattern many high performers fall into, over-functioning in response to misalignment. Doing more feels productive, but it often reinforces the very thing keeping you stuck. The insight here is clear: effort doesn’t fix what clarity hasn’t defined. Thought-provoking and highly relevant for anyone navigating pressure, growth, and complexity.
I met Jill a few years ago, and found her to be a fresh and insightful expert on career and workforce challenges. I’m so glad she has a podcast to spread her ideas more fully into the world.
This episode puts real language to something a lot of high performers feel but can’t explain.
The breakdown between job, career, and purpose was simple and sharp. You don’t have to change your title, company, or business card to realize you’ve outgrown the work you built. That hit.
If you’ve done everything “right” and still feel like something is off, this will help you see why. More importantly, it gives you a way to think about what comes next without blowing up everything you’ve worked for... more
Jill doesn’t deal in hype or vague inspiration, she brings grounded practical insight that actually holds up inside complex organizations.
What I appreciate most is how she speaks directly to high-performing professional professionals navigating real inflection points - stalled growth, evolving identity, decision, fatigue, and the quiet recalibration that comes mid career.
The conversations are thoughtful, strategic, and refreshingly honest about what advancement truly requires.
