## Resource

This one is for the person who has been doing the work. Really doing it — hiring coaches, rewriting the resume, applying and applying and applying — and still not moving. This week I'm talking about what's actually happening when the job-first strategy isn't working, why the problem is sometimes structural and not personal, and the questions worth sitting with honestly when you've been at this long enough that the effort and the results have completely stopped matching. Also: the thing career coaches often don't say, why being on the ground changes everything, and why your first move doesn't have to be your forever move. This is not a pep talk. It's a real conversation with someone who has been doing everything right and deserves an honest answer about why it might not be working.
