  Sep 22, 202617 min

  It might seem counterintuitive, but less is more in your job search. That means applying to fewer jobs, but being strategic about it. In this episode, I explain why being more strategic in your job application process will result in you being more energized and motivated, and will help you land your next role faster. I talk about the scarcity that can take over while job searching, and how to overcome it.

  156. The Cringey Side of Job Searching

  Aug 5, 202619 min

  Getting a job in 2026 is gonna require you to slide into people’s LinkedIn DMs. And that can be super cringey. This episode is all about that: the cringey side of job searching. I go over what an effective LinkedIn DM looks like, why it can feel so cringey to send this, and most importantly, how facing that awkwardness is the key to landing your next opportunity. Key Takeaways: Feeling cringy is part of the process. Networking opens doors to opportunities you didn't even know existed. Every awkward message gets you closer to your goal. If you know that you need to be reaching out to more people in your job search but you know where to start or what to say, this episode is for you.

  155. Networking is OUT. Community-Building is IN.

  Jul 29, 202633 min

  This episode is all about building community! I talk about how to find your people by putting yourself in places where you yourself want to be, how NOT to be exploitative or annoying, and why I don't think that everyone needs to go to "networking" events. I share how I prepare, because yes, even this super chatty extrovert needs to prepare. Whether that's the overachieving Virgo in me or simply the lingering effects of COVID that caused all of us to be out of practice talking to humans, who knows. But preparation is the key to confidence and to having a great time! Remember, it is NOT about "networking." It is not about transactional interactions that both of you will forget about right away. It is about building community. We are community beings and we need each other!
