In this special live episode of Squiggly Careers, Helen and Sarah take to the stage to explore one of the trickiest parts of career growth - learning through the uncomfortable, uncertain, and messy moments. Borrowing brilliance from lobsters, they share the idea from their new book Learn Like a Lobster of 'shell shedding' — the vulnerable transitions we all go through when we outgrow old roles, identities, or ways of working.

Through honest stories, practical tools, and conversations with three brilliant guests, Maya Raichoora, Timeyin Akerelethey & Amy Conroy unpack how setbacks and unexpected change can become fuel for growth, if we know how to spot the learning.

This episode is all about turning hard moments into helpful ones, building the confidence to adapt, and leading your own development through the discomfort.
