Podcasts about career advice

What if the fastest way to grow your career isn't a straight climb but a series of smart, sideways moves that sharpen your empathy and judgment?  In this episode, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Catherine Wong, COO and CPO at Entrata, to unpack how she scales products and people by shaping cultures where every voice is invited, and the best ideas surface early. From engineering during the dot-com downturn to leading global teams through acquisitions and hypergrowth, Catherine shares the habits that turn uncertainty into momentum: practice your voice, ask for real feedback, and reward behaviors that build trust.We go deep on how product and operations intersect when you're building an operating system for real estate. Catherine explains why diverse perspectives improve outcomes and how leaders can intentionally signal what matters by recognizing thoughtful execution, not just loud opinions. Her take on the future of work is refreshingly actionable: AI changes the “how,” not the “why.” Whether you specialize or stay broad, treat curiosity like a muscle. Run small experiments, unlearn out-of-date tactics, and stay anchored to clear business outcomes.You'll hear practical frameworks for deciding under ambiguity. widen inputs, seek data, welcome dissent, and iterate with agility. Catherine also breaks down visibility tactics for women who are competent but overlooked: volunteer for updates, lead slices of complex projects, and request precise post-meeting feedback. Her story of integrating a UK acquisition while battling imposter syndrome reveals a simple truth: courage plus clarity compounds into trust, scope, and impact.If you care about culture design, product leadership, AI fluency, and building a resilient career in tech, this conversation is a blueprint you can use today. Follow along, share it with a friend who needs a nudge, and subscribe to get more candid, practical conversations. Loved this one?

Together they unpack what really happens when you lose your job – from the shock and shame to the surprising freedom on the other side.

Erica Malbon is the co-founder of Malbon Golf—the game-changing, fashionable golfwear and lifestyle brand that seeks to break tradition by inviting anyone and everyone to enjoy what she calls the “greatest game on Earth.” Malbon Golf began as an Instagram mood board created by her husband, a longtime golf enthusiast. When the couple decided to make Malbon into a full-fledged brand, Erica didn't have any experience in the sports or retail industry. That said, she had developed an entrepreneurial spirit from her time as co-founder of her first venture, The Now, an L.A.-based massage business that offers luxury spa treatments at an affordable price point. Having learned firsthand what it takes to run both the operational and creative sides of a company, Erica was more than prepared to reimagine golfwear for a new generation and create a brand with a mission to make the sport more accessible. Since launching in 2017, Malbon has amassed a community of golf lovers that includes veteran fans of the sport, professional athletes, and celebrities like Justin Bieber. And they've expanded their brand around the world with locations in China, South Korea, and the Philippines.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Leadership gets real when you stop chasing titles and start creating willing followers. That's the heart of our conversation with Anna Lämber, VP of EMEA Marketing at AVEVA, whose career stretches from HP to ServiceNow's hypergrowth years and into board work and executive coaching. We dig into the practices that actually move careers forward, such as writing goals, prioritising outcomes over hours, and leading with empathy and accountability, while staying honest about the hard parts.Anna shares how working full-time while studying taught her that effort isn't the same as impact, and why she still writes down goals with weekly and quarterly check‑ins. We explore how to reframe failure as a trial run, a source of data that sharpens judgment and builds resilience. From the inside of a company growing 40–60% year over year, Anna explains how to stay adaptable, create clarity without a perfect playbook, and scale through cross‑functional teams across sales, pre‑sales, partners and customer outcomes.We also talk about the traits that don't get enough airtime: active listening, real presence and the discipline to hire for mindset over pedigree. Anna's coaching stories show how belief and structure can turn curiosity into capability. She breaks down the difference between leadership and management, why authenticity conserves energy, and how daily movement, such as horse riding, Tabata, and long walks, keeps performance sustainable.If you're aiming for a promotion, building a team or resetting your path, this is a practical guide to intentional leadership, career development and high‑growth operating.

Plus, May gives us a peek into her new book, The Fashion of Clueless, which features pages from her sketchbook for the movie and exclusive interviews with the cast.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Melanie Bender is the founder and CEO of Lore, a new fragrance brand that creates entire worlds in every bottle. Before becoming a leader in the beauty industry, Bender initially thought she'd enter the world of STEM. In college, she studied aerospace engineering and environmental science before becoming an environmental planner in her home state of Hawai'i. But her love for fashion and beauty led her to New York. It was there that she started a career that would make her an expert in every part of the process of brand-building—from PR to product development to marketing. Her natural talent and reputation led her to help grow beauty brands Versed and Merit before she was tapped to serve as the CEO of Hailey Bieber's Rhode. But she never abandoned what she learned when she studied STEM. She often credits the scientific method as the formula to entrepreneurial success that's gotten her to where she is today. Now, after more than a decade of building businesses across the beauty industry and leading them to new heights, Melanie's launched her own with Lore—her fragrance line that debuted at Sephora this year.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Hey friends!

We are excited to answer your art questions! In this episode we will discuss: how do you keep your practice thriving while navigating space, money, and access? We dig in with honest, field-tested advice and personal stories from two working artists who've built momentum in imperfect conditions.We start with the studio question everyone wrestles with: home vs separate space. You'll hear why a “setup” beats square footage, how to protect focus if interruptions tank your flow, and scrappy ways to work larger without taking on a lease you can't sustain. From there, we lay out a gallery game plan: what a strong approach package looks like (10–15 works with depth behind them), what “consistency” really means, and how to get on the radar through open calls, smart social presence, and showing up at the right level.International showing gets a reality check. Culture changes the conversation, but logistics can make or break it. We walk through shipping options, customs surprises, and how to avoid vanity traps with contracts that shift costs onto artists. We also talk residencies, including why many invite-only programs pull from boards and alumni, and how relationships can open doors when applications can't.Collectors and sustainability round out the heart of the episode. We share favorite delivery stories, why early-stage artists should sell to keep making, and how ideal collectors help build careers over time. For anyone staring down a short financial runway, we offer practical steps: emergency grant resources, low-cost materials that keep you prolific, and the mindset shift that treats bridge income as a patron rather than a detour.If you found value here, follow the show, share it with an artist friend, and leave a review so more creatives can find these conversations.

Celia Muñoz is the founder of La Coqueta, a childrenswear brand that infuses traditional Spanish craftsmanship and culture into beautiful designs for kids. Before Muñoz dreamed up the idea for her brand, she studied psychology and then moved from her native Spain to London post-grad, working several jobs across industries—from luxury retail to headhunting. She went back to school to get her master's in mental health while growing her family, but her dream for a kids' fashion brand quickly took over. With no experience in design or business, she launched the brand in 2013. La Coqueta (meaning “well-groomed”) was greeted warmly by families who fell in love with the brand for its high-quality garments, and things only continued to take off after Prince Louis of the Royal Family (son of Prince William and Princess Kate) was spotted wearing a La Coqueta original. Today, the brand continues to grow and expand its reach with new locations in the U.S.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

What if the fastest way to grow your career is to reinvent how you work before the market forces you to? In this episode, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Caitlin Clark-Zigmond, a two-time entrepreneur and former CMO for Intel's global software and SaaS portfolio, to map the leap from hands-on operator to AI-powered brand builder, and why clear value translation beats clever slogans every time.Caitlin takes us from scaling a catering business to shipping Comcast Digital Voice, to leading massive B2B portfolios at Verizon and Intel. We dig into how Intel Tiber emerged to make software visible inside a hardware giant, uniting trust and security, AI and ML, edge and cloud, performance optimization, and developer workflows under a narrative customers could navigate. The result: sharper messaging, analyst clarity, and real pipeline acceleration. If your portfolio feels like a maze, her brand framework shows you how to draw a clean map.Then we get practical with AI go-to-market. Forget tool-chasing—start with painful use cases, build on clean, connected data, and let AI amplify what already moves the needle. Caitlin explains why a CDP or an MCP layer unlocks CRM, marketing automation, analytics, billing, and customer success, enabling them to communicate effectively with each other. We cover intent data for account prioritization, conversation intelligence for coaching, predictive scoring for pipeline, and agents that handle repetitive data pulls and weekly reporting so teams can focus on thinking, not tab-hopping.For leaders and modern marketers, the upskilling path is clear: achieve 30% fluency in core AI concepts, measurement, and understanding how your stack—HubSpot, Salesforce, GA, CDPs, and chat systems —actually works. You don't need to code; you need to understand revenue mechanics. We also share Caitlin's strategic networking system—the 5–5–5 method—that turns coffee chats into an operating system for your career, with value-first follow-ups that work even for introverts.We conclude with candid insights on the value of progress over perfection, investing in relationships before you need them, and redefining success in terms of client transformation, sustainable growth, and work-life integration.

Toni Chapman aka The Moody Foody is a culinary content creator, recipe developer, and new cookbook author. She grew up cooking and hosting frequent gatherings with her family, but Chapman didn't realize her love for food could be a job until after a brief stint as a bank teller.

After getting fired from her job, Chapman decided to turn her lunch-making hobby into a full-fledged meal-delivery service in NYC called ToniCooks. After running and growing the business for five years, she took her culinary expertise to TikTok, teaching people how to cook her favorite comfort meals. As her platform grew, Chapman leveled up her recipe-development skills and joined Buzzfeed's Tasty program as on-camera talent.

AI only works at scale when the shiny demo meets the gritty realities of deployment, security, and change management. In episode #146 of the 2B Bolder Podcast, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Monica Livingston, AI Platform Lead for the Americas at Red Hat and a former Intel leader, to unpack how open source accelerates real outcomes, and why the “plumbing” behind enterprise AI matters more than most roadmaps admit. Monica shares a clear view of what platforms must do in production: version control, monitoring, governance, policy, and cost discipline, all while staying flexible enough to avoid stack lock-in.We get candid about the two biggest misconceptions leaders hold: AI isn't a black box you plug in once, and the most complex variable is people, not models. Monica explains how to align teams through transparency, psychological safety, and clear KPIs so pilots survive the leap to operations. She also offers practical advice for new managers under pressure, from building trust to making recognition routine, and reflects on mentors who pushed her to trade constant breadth for deep expertise that compounds.For anyone mapping a career in AI, this conversation covers real paths forward, including accessible learning, hands-on projects, and emerging roles that are reshaping the field. We discuss early STEM exposure as a lever for agency, guidance for young women entering the tech field, and the value of calculated risk anchored in personal values such as family and health. Monica also shares her perspective on how to stand out in crowded applicant pools, the power of referrals, and why transformation often occurs on your own time before it becomes a job title.If this resonates, follow and share with a colleague who's building AI for the real world.

The silos between Application Security and Cloud Security are officially breaking down, and AI is the primary catalyst. In this episode, Tejas Dakve, Senior Manager, Application Security, Bloomberg Industry Group and Aditya Patel, VP of Cybersecurity Architecture discuss how the AI-driven landscape is forcing a fundamental change in how we secure our applications and infrastructure.The conversation explores why traditional security models and gates are "absolutely impossible" to maintain against the sheer speed and volume of AI-generated code .

Brynn Putnam is the founder of innovative tech companies Mirror and Board. Before entering the tech space, she spent her first life as a professional ballerina. In between performing with big productions and studying at Harvard University, she taught fitness classes on the side to make ends meet. Her side hustle became her full-time one after college when she started her own fitness boutique in New York. Putnam's pivot into the fitness space would then lead her to tech with her invention of Mirror, a high-tech piece of equipment that could seamlessly bring personalized fitness classes directly into your home. When she launched Mirror in 2019, it was a huge hit—especially during the pandemic when folks were confined to their homes during lockdown. Her company saw so much success that she soon sold it to Lululemon in a deal valued at $500 million. Now, after establishing herself as a tech pioneer, Putnam is onto her next venture in the space—this time with Board, an innovative, first-of-its-kind product that blends the magic of video games with the feel of board games. It also just launched at TechCrunch Disrupt today.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Melissa Morris is the founder of Métier, an innovative luxury handbag brand well-revered for its commitment to combining fashion and function. Before starting her own luxury brand, Morris had worked in merchandising and design for some of the biggest names in luxury, including Helmut Lang, Armani, Belstaff, and LVMH. But in all her years working for brands, she noticed a lack of bags that actually served the wearer. Métier was born from Morris's vision for accessories that were both elegant and practical. She dreamed of a line that offered customers the perfect bag for any occasion with a seasonless and timeless aesthetic. Despite having never designed a handbag in her life, she used her degree in sculpture and her career in merchandising to engineer the bags of her dreams with her customers in mind. Métier took off after its founding in 2017, garnering a cult following, and the bags have even been spotted in award-winning Hollywood productions like Succession and The White Lotus. It's also secured major celebrity endorsements, earning praise from stars like Nicole Kidman, who has been seen wearing them both on and off screen. Morris continues to prove her commitment to her customers today as Métier develops new bespoke options for its loyal devotees.
