In a world where uncertainty is the only constant, how do we plan careers that are resilient, intentional, and truly our own?

In this expansive episode of What Is Your Working Title?, we speak with Cheryl Chung—strategic foresight educator and founder of Tenth Futures—who has spent her career helping others think critically about what’s next. Drawing on her work in public policy, education, and futures strategy, Cheryl invites us to challenge assumptions, embrace uncertainty, and reimagine our careers as living systems—flexible, creative, and deeply personal.

Together, we explore:
 ✨ Why futures thinking isn’t prediction—it’s a mindset for expanding possibility

✨ How to use scenario planning to navigate career decisions with clarity

✨ What “absorptive capacity” is—and why your daily habits matter more than you think

✨ Why a portfolio life can make space for the many parts of who you are

✨ How to read the small signals before burnout forces a big decision

This is not just a conversation about planning your next move. It’s about redesigning your relationship with change, and making space for a future that’s not only possible—but meaningful.
