Yes! Writing about the same thing right now. The system is disempowering and self-destructive in many ways and on all levels. I think what is happening now is not just change but total transformation. Heading straight into the unknown, it’s scary but so necessary.
Yes please to the Substack series you mentioned in The Chat! 🙏🙏 especially the storytelling part and examples of how/where these conversations might take place. I’ve heard of people using advertised interviews for FTE positions and using them to pitch fractional/consultant based offerings based on the problem they discovered in the interview 🤔
Noted! I'll definitely pull this together shortly. That's a really interesting strategy, I've heard a few people try that (pitching fractional during a FT interview process) but I'm not sure how successful they were. Have you heard of it working?
I definitely want to learn more about what you talk about in The Chat, Anna. In my case, how to move towards the portfolio career when being employed.
Duly noted! There are a lot of essays in my back catalogue that might help but I’ll certainly pop this on my list for upcoming posts 😊
I resonated with this question too! Would love to see your essays from your back catalogue!
Resonating with this big time !
I think a lot of us are feeling it!
Yes yes and yes. I love this, I'm here for it and I'm feeling it deeply too.
❤️

I think so too.
Can't wait for your deeper dive into the soft skills needed-really loved the chat this week!
Thank you! This is on my to-do list 😉
You put what I've been feeling into words so beautifully 🤗

FEELING THIS. It's been a slow rumbling for a long time, but it's getting louder.
It absolutely is.

No, I’m not sure how successful they were either. ☺️
We were told to “bring our whole selves to work” but the system only wanted the parts it could monetise.
Oof
