## Resource

The career ladder you planned to climb? It’s looking a lot shakier these days. Host Jennifer Borget is joined by author Simone Stolzoff—author of The Good Enough Job and How to Not Know —to explore what building a career looks like when the old rules no longer apply and why learning to thrive in uncertainty might be the single most valuable skill you can build. Together, they unpack how to stay grounded when your work life shifts; why over-identifying with your job title is a liability; and how a strong financial plan gives you the foundation to take risks, make moves, and land on your feet.
