As we kick off a new year, it’s not enough to hope things get better at work—you need a plan.

In this episode, we break down 5 practical ways to hit the ground running, whether you’re staying put, eyeing a promotion, or quietly preparing for your next move. The job market has shifted, managers are stretched thin, and “business as usual” career advice no longer cuts it. This is about being intentional, strategic, and realistic.

You’ll learn how to:

• Have a clear, adult conversation with your boss about intent—without making it awkward or risky
• Revisit your accomplishments (even the messy ones) and turn last year into leverage
• Use a simple Start / Stop / Continue exercise to create momentum fast
• Set income goals that don’t rely solely on your current job
• Identify roles you actually want—and talk to insiders who can help you get there

If you’re job seeking, we’ll also cover one of the most powerful (and underused) networking questions you can ask—and how to set the intention so people actually help you.
