Hi everybody, it's Helen from the Squiggly Careers podcast. Before you listen or watch today's episode,

I just wanted to let you know about some news that Sarah and I are very excited about, and that is

that our Squiggly Career Skill Sprint is back. This time, we are going to be sprinting in September

and the sprint will last for a week. Our focus is on the five Squiggly Career Skills, so that is strengths, values, confidence,

network and future possibilities. And we are going to be accelerating your development by

adding in a little bit of AI. So there are some prompts for you to play with. There are some

tools for you to try out. And we have got everything that you need to learn. So sign up to

the Sprint. Head to squiggly sprint.com,

add your email in and we'll start to send you your ready, steady sprint guide. You can sprint

together as a team, you can sprint on your own, whatever it works for you, but we are going to

make this as easy as possible for you to sign up, for you to start and for you to stick to your sprint. So go to

squiggly sprint.com to get started now. Hi, I'm Sarah. And I'm Helen. And this is the squiggly

careers podcast. Every week we talk about a different topic to do with work and share some ideas

and actions to help all of us navigate these increasingly swiggly careers

without a bit more confidence and control. And this episode is part of a short series that we

decided to do for the summer when we thought everyone could do with a little bit of inspiration,

some ideas they can put into action. So we have taken our favourite quotes. I never really thought

I would talk about Sarah having favourite quotes, but it turns out you do have some favorite quotes that inspire you. The one I've picked for the next episode, I don't even think is a quote. I was like, it's a definition. It's a statement of intent. It's a statement. So we've taken our favorite statements of intent and quotes that have been helpful for us in our careers.

And we have turned them into things that you can take action with. So this is the third episode in this series. The first one was one of quote that's worked for me, which is run your

own race. The second one was a quote which has worked for Sarah, which was never lived the same

year twice. And today is back to me for my quote that feels useful for me in my career,

which I think might be a bit contentious for people. We'll see. We'll see. It works for me.
