In Episode 1 we meet Holly - a 19-year-old Christmas temp who gets dropped into a chaotic consultancy in December… the exact moment clients start demanding miracles before close-down.

Holly doesn’t shout, she doesn’t flail, she doesn’t grandstand.
She notices.
She organises.
She builds the one thing the entire team needed and didn’t realise: a list that prevented a full-blown Christmas Eve catastrophe.

In this episode you’ll hear:

• Why outsider perspective is a secret superpower
• How quiet clarity outperforms loud panic every time
• The hilarious moment Holly accidentally becomes the most competent person in the building
• Why the 2mm Difference is often just… writing the list

Power Move: Spot & Solve
Little Move: Notice the mess no one else is looking at.

What You’ll Take Away:
The smallest interventions (especially from unexpected people) can completely shift a team’s trajectory. Visibility isn’t noise. Visibility is impact.

Ever been told you need to tone it down, stay in your lane, or “just fit in first”?

This episode of Little Moves, Big Careers is your permission slip to stop sanding down your edges.

Caroline dives deep into the Maverick’s Survival Guide - a bold, honest look at how people who think differently can survive (and actually thrive) inside systems that aren’t built for them.

She explores what happens when “inclusion” quietly becomes “assimilation,” and why true belonging means being valued because of your difference.

You’ll hear Carolin's personal story of being labelled a “maverick” (not as a compliment), the quiet damage that caused, and the lessons she’s learned about turning individuality into impact.

In this episode:

• The Maverick’s Dilemma: You want to belong but not at the cost of your value.
• Culture of Sameness vs. Culture of Difference: How to feel the energy shift when a team truly values individuality.
• The Three Traps of Maverick Thinking:
  The Lone Wolf Trap - when independence becomes isolation.
  The Volume Trap - why louder doesn’t mean clearer.
  The Translation Trap - how passion can make you sound vague (and how to fix it).
• The Collaboration Code: What happens when difference becomes strength, not threat and why true collaboration is productive friction, not endless harmony.
• People Aren’t Difficult, Just Different: The mindset shift that transforms conflict into curiosity.
• Quote Crime: “You just need to fit in before you stand out.” Nope. Stop sanding down your edges. They’re the reason you sparkle.

What if excellence isn’t about working harder… but managing your energy, pride, and discipline smarter?

This week, Caroline dives into the difference between commitment and compliance and why whole teams leak energy when excellence turns into exhaustion.

You’ll Learn

• How to spot when effort has become self-harm, not self-respect
• Why excellence starts with calm clarity
• What “energy leaks” are, and how to plug them fast
• The simple shift from “I have to” → “I want to” that transforms culture
• Why real professionals run on pride, not pressure

Research says

• Consistent energy from leaders = +53% engagement (Gallup)
• Emotional regulation = +24% better decision-making (Journal of Applied Psychology)
• Calm brains are creative brains (Yale Centre for Emotional Intelligence)

Quickfire Career Moves

• Rewrite one update from effort → outcome
•  Book a 45-minute 'craft' block to protect your best work
•  Run the 5-minute Leak Audit - check your calm clarity after every meeting

The Takeaway

You can’t fix “bare minimum” people by doing more. You fix them by showing what smart excellence looks like - visible outcomes, calm energy, and boundaries that say: “I care about results, not theatrics.”

Because compliance runs on rules. Commitment runs on pride.

Listen now: Caroline on excellence, energy, and the quiet power of staying disciplined when everyone else is distracted.
