Today I brought on Kerri Twigg, the founder, and operator of Career Stories.
Through courses and coaching, Kerri helps people use their stories to grow their careers, whether they aim for a “job-job” or running their own business. And, if they’re not sure what kind of work, she helps with that too.
She has been helping people find and share their stories with confidence for nearly 20 years, seven in the career management sector. She also supports businesses as they restructure or downsize, and helps support their employees who experience change or job loss.
So as you can see, Kerri is going to be just awesome, and this episode is going to really help you out if you’re struggling with integrating personal narratives in your job-hunting strategy!

Today I brought on legendary CWP repeat guest, Maya Grossman. Maya is a Career Coach, 2x VP of marketing, and a best-selling author.
She spent 15 years in the corporate world growing from an individual contributor to a VP, achieving 10 promotions in 15 years, and working for some of the best companies in the world (Microsoft and Google).
Now Maya teaches ambitious professionals how to level up into executive roles, make quantum leaps in their careers and earn high 6 figures, without working harder.
Whether you're just starting your professional journey or you've been in the career “matrix” for years, understanding these truths can be a game-changer.
But our message today is the total opposite. It’s to tell you that you do have negotiating leverage. Employers don’t have all the cards. And whatever struggles you’re going through now – is only temporary!
This event (recorded live in Austin, TX) was a transformative session designed to help job seekers push past barriers, overcome setbacks, and break into top leadership roles, even if they have been laid off.
