Feeling like you’re supposed to follow one path in your career can make every unexpected turn feel like a mistake.

That’s something Jill Salzman, discovered through her own unconventional journey. After starting multiple businesses, raising kids, and navigating countless “but…” moments in life and work, she realized those detours were actually the most important parts of the story.

That realization inspired her to write The Big But Book, a graphic novel exploring the fears, excuses, and self-doubt that often hold us back from pursuing what we truly want.

In this episode of Women & Work, Jill shares why embracing your authentic self—and even your messy career twists—can lead to stronger connections, more meaningful work, and greater success.

What “but” has held you back from doing something you really want to try?
