Hi, I'm Sarah and I'm Helen.

And this is the Squiggly Careers podcast where every week we talk to you about some ideas and some tools that we just hope will help you.

And they do always help us to navigate all of our squiggly careers with that bit more confidence and control.

And we have spent some time beyond just the conversation we're

having with you today, creating lots of resources to help you dive a bit deeper into the stuff

that we cover on the podcast. So whether you like some extra reflection and you might benefit

from downloading our pod sheet or whether you're kind of a speedy learner and you'd like

your career and you can get all the information for them either on our website amazingif.com

or on the show notes mainly on apple i think is to find it. And if you ever can't find it, just email us where Helen and Sarah at squiggly careers.com.

Some of those things are, you know, things that are in our control,
