0:00.0	Hi, I'm Sarah.
0:03.7	And I'm Helen.
0:05.1	And this is the Squiggly Careers podcast.
0:07.9	Every week we talk about a different topic to do with work and share some ideas and actions and tools that we hope will help all of us navigate our squiggly careers with that bit more confidence and control.
0:18.9	And I'm hoping if you are a regular listener that you are well aware the squiggly sprint is coming.
0:25.0	In fact, it is coming next week.
0:26.9	Next week starts a 20-day learning series to help you accelerate your career development.
0:33.7	These are super short episodes.
0:35.5	It's seven minutes each.
0:37.1	And during the 20 days of the sprint in August August we'll be covering 20 different skills. So please sign up, get involved.

1:24.9	And we think about resourcefulness as working with what you've got. Motivating.
1:30.1	Yeah, yeah. I don't know. I think, I think it is, I think it will be a motivating episode, I promise.
1:35.6	It sounds like to just get on with it. It sounds like that kind of thing. Well, I guess that's the point,
1:40.5	isn't it? It's almost like going beyond getting on with it because you can't
1:45.5	just get on with it usually because something's got in your way. And I think it's often in those
1:49.7	moments where you need to be resourceful where something has become more limited than you'd imagined.
