Summary

Navigating your career has always been difficult, but that’s especially true in today’s landscape where the state of the job market seems to be constantly in flux. While you may be looking to quit your job in search of better wages or improved work-life balance, you may also want to stay put this year. If you are sticking to the job you’ve got, you’re probably thinking about a way to move up the ladder. According to a recent CNBC poll, nearly half of women polled describe themselves as “very ambitious” when it comes to their careers, and ambition among women of color is even higher. Grace Puma and Christiana Smith Shi, authors of the new book “Career Forward: Strategies By Women Who’ve Made It,” want more women to be proud of acknowledging their ambition — privately and publicly. Listen in as they share their learnings on decades of experience reaching the top of Fortune 500 companies and why we should always be thinking one step ahead in our careers. In Mailbag, we hear from a mom who’s preparing to reenter the workforce and is looking for the best tips to use AI to spruce up her resume. We also check in with a listener who is getting their taxes done and wondering if they should be increasing their retirement savings to avoid a higher tax bill. In our money tip of the week, it’s that time of the year again…tax time! So, what is the new DirectFile program from the IRS, and who is eligible to use it? We break it down. Join us!
