  • Ep. 69: Back to School and Time for a Change - Taylor’s Story

    Taylor’s three kids are back to school, with two in elementary school and one starting her first year in middle school. It’s a season of change for the whole family and Taylor is starting to wonder if it could be her turn to make a change next.

    Taylor’s been with the same manufacturing company for 8 years doing marketing and events and it’s a pretty solid role in many ways. She doesn’t love it though and feels torn. Should she make a change right now, and what would that change even be?

    But what if we let some things go, especially over the summer?

    Last season, we talked about managing the summertime shuffle with camp drop-offs and spreadsheets, but as we close out Season 2, Marie and Becca are taking a different look at summer through the lens of doing less rather than more and finding the time and space we really need.

  • Ep. 62: Building Your Network as an Introvert - Abby's Story

    It's no surprise to Abby that on every personality assessment she has ever taken, she's as far to the Introvert side of the scale as she can get! Her husband is also relatively introverted and her two kids have followed suit.

    As a research analyst, being introverted has always worked out well for Abby. She has a close circle of family and friends, enjoys her solo work, and has enough quiet time to recharge. The problem is that Abby’s company had to do massive layoffs which left Abby on the search for a new job. A change was not on the agenda for her and she doesn’t know where to start.

    Join Becca and Marie to talk about layoffs and harnessing your power as an introvert to make networking as part of your job search work for you.
