Doris Chela Muigei breaks down why getting to “no” as a recruiter is often more valuable than rushing to “yes,” and how radical acceptance helps clients tell her what she needs to hear.

She also shares stories about the way hiring decisions often have less to do with résumés and more to do with a company’s very specific quirks. (If someone says “culture fit” it means, they’re not ready to tell the truth yet.)

This conversation is about seizing joy on squiggly life-paths, and lessons beyond hiring.
