Hi, I'm Sarah and I'm Helen and this is a squiggly careers podcast. Every week we take a

different topic to do it with work and we try to share some ideas and tools that we hope will help

you and it always continues to help us navigate your squiggly career with that little bit more

confidence, clarity and control.

And we should say happy new year to everybody.

We should say happy, happy 2024.

Do you think there's people listening to this for the first time because they're like New Year's resolution is like, I'm going to invest.

To a podcast or invest in my development.

Well, both.

I mean both, yeah.

That's probably why they're listening to this.

But welcome, if you are, if you are new to the world of squiggly careers,

welcome, welcome. So we have about 370 episodes to catch up on. Happy 2024. I feel like that is a really positive thing. Like we should be really proud of that. But whenever we say, I'm like,

that just seems overwhelming. Yeah, it does. You can use the search functionality on our website to look for topics. I mean, I wouldn't. That's a, that's a kind of

objective for us this year to kind of improve that. It doesn't work that well. So it just comes up

with a lot. So it's a bit of a filter, but probably not the most effective. If you are thinking,

ah, where do I start? Maybe send us a message either on LinkedIn. We Instagram or just email us, Helen and Sarah at squigglycareers.com.

And if you give us like that, oh, I'm looking for some help in, we can give you a little

sort of squiggly career playlist to get you started. And before we get into the topic for today's

episode, Sarah and I are recording together in lovely London, which is slightly noisy today.

There is somebody doing some renovation right now, drilling in the background.

So if you can hear that, we apologise, but we're just trying to keep it real.
