In this episode of The Vancrux Podcast, I sit down with Tristram Hooley, Professor of Career Education at University of Derby.
We explore what it really means to create a career in today’s world — not just find a job. From navigating uncertainty and understanding opportunity structures, to building networks, shaping identity, and taking ownership of direction, this conversation reframes careers as something dynamic, strategic, and intentional.
If you’ve ever felt stuck, uncertain, or unsure whether you’re climbing the right ladder — this episode will challenge how you think about work, purpose, and long-term progression.
