Hi, I'm Sarah. And I'm Helen. And this is the Squiggly Careers podcast where every week we take a

different topic to do with work and we talk about some ideas, some tools, some techniques,

anything that we think will help you to just navigate your squiggly career with that bit more

confidence, clarity and control.

And before we get started onto today's episode, we want to let you know about a new tool we have created.

There are always new tools, everybody.

If this is the first time listening, welcome to the world of squiggly career tools.

The latest one we have created is a new squiggly career calendar.

So we've done a few of these.

And in the past, we've basically done a big PDF with a different theme for every month and you kind of get it all at once. But we think it's

quite a lot to absorb to do it in that way. So our approach for 2024 is to send you on the

first of every month an email which summarises all the ideas for action for that month link to a

particular theme. So, for example, in January, the theme is all about growth goals. And in the

email, you get a downloadable template, which has got some ideas for actions, some coach

yourself questions. There are some resources that we recommend as well. And it's all put together

for you in a really simple way.

We do do a short summary on social. So if you're thinking, oh no, I might miss a newsletter or I don't need another email in my life, you can get like the abridged version, which will be on amazing

if on LinkedIn, so you can see it there. But if you think, oh, actually, that would be a useful email for me to get then just sign up for it and we will send it your way the links for that you'll get in the show notes so if you look at the show notes you'll be able to

click on the link and then sign up if you can't find that just email us where helen and sarah at

squiggly careers.com so on to today's topic which has been suggested by a listener called

leanne give leanne a little squiggly shout-out,
