Podcasts about career strategies

Have you ever bought something online that seemed perfect, only to have it arrive and not quite fit the way you expected?

If that's where you are right now, today's episode is all about how to tailor your career to fit you without leaving the role entirely.      In this episode, I share three shifts you can make to customize your current practice or role. These are steps designed to help you assess where you are now, identify what truly matters to you, and create the career you want.

Allison Walsh welcomes Vivian Gonzalez, founder and CEO of Park Capital Search and Evergreen, for a powerful conversation about building a meaningful career through clarity, strategy, and self-belief. With more than two decades of experience in private equity and executive search, Vivian has helped organizations scale by placing the right leaders and creating systems that drive growth. But her journey into the industry didn't follow the typical Wall Street pipeline. Instead, it was shaped by persistence, networking, and a deep commitment to creating opportunities where none existed. As a Latina entrepreneur, mother, and business leader, Vivian brings a unique perspective to leadership and career growth. She shares how she navigated an industry where women represent only a small percentage of leadership roles, and why emotional intelligence, relationship-building, and integrity are powerful advantages in business. Throughout the conversation, Vivian and Allison explore how strategic thinking can transform career decisions, why chasing “shiny opportunities” can derail long-term success, and how learning to bet on yourself can unlock doors you never imagined possible. They also discuss manifestation, self-awareness, and the importance of reflection as a tool for personal and professional growth. Whether you're navigating a career transition, stepping into leadership, or building a path that doesn't follow the traditional blueprint, Vivian's story offers both inspiration and practical guidance for creating a career aligned with your purpose and long-term vision.

If networking feels awkward or transactional, this Squiggly Shortcut offers a simpler starting point: give to gain. Inspired by the theme of International Women's day, Helen explores why focusing on what you can contribute, rather than what you can get, makes building relationships easier and more effective. Generosity strengthens connections and creates reciprocity, a concept backed by research from Adam Grant. To make it practical, she shares three easy ways to get started: reflect on what you're recommended for, share lessons from your experiences, and offer your expertise in small, useful ways. A short, actionable guide to building career karma that feels genuine, not transactional.Episode 540

Hello and welcome to the Women Leaders in Sports Podcast. I'm your host, Patti Phillips, CEO of Women Leaders in Sports. Today, I'm joined by an extraordinary leader - Nina King, Vice President and Director of Athletics at Duke University and the incoming Board President of Women Leaders in Sports.  As the first female AD in Duke history, Nina has expanded what leadership looks like at one of the most storied programs in college athletics. After 13 years at Duke - including serving as Chief of Staff to the former AD Kevin White - her performance and preparation positioned her to step into the role when he retired.  In this episode, we frame her journey through our five leadership pillars: Mindset, Presence, Performance, Influence, and Career Strategy.  You'll hear how she's honored tradition while building her own vision for Duke's future - navigating major coaching transitions and leading with steadiness in an industry where, as she says, "uncertainty isn't a season - it's the way of life."  Let's get started - and remember, We Are Women Leaders.

Laura Leighton takes us back inside the Melrose Place phenomenon and what it was really like to ride that wave before social media and smartphones changed everything. In this episode of Still Here Hollywood, Laura talks about launching the Melrose Place rewatch podcast Still the Place with Daphne Zuniga and Courtney Thorne Smith, why it feels so freeing to show up without a script, and the surprising emotional impact of revisiting a time that happened more than 30 years ago. Laura opens up about the cast bond that never went away, the real conversations happening around a potential Melrose Place reboot, and why creating your own opportunities matters more as Hollywood changes and roles for women narrow with age. She also shares the best thing that came out of Melrose Place, her 26 year marriage to co star Doug Savant, and what it means to raise a big family and now become a grandmother. You will also hear Laura on the shift from water cooler television to reality TV and TikTok culture, the strange new normal of being photographed everywhere, and why self tape auditions can feel harder than walking into a room. Plus, Laura tells two unforgettable stories from her career, a fan encounter so intense a nurse thought her villain character was real, and the heartbreak moment she had to drop out of a musical film role that later went to Renee Zellweger. She also reveals a major career decision she still regrets, turning down the chance to play Rizzo on Broadway. If you love Melrose Place, Aaron Spelling era television, 90s nostalgia, Hollywood behind the scenes stories, and honest conversations about career, fame, aging, and reinvention, this one is for you. 00:00 Reboot Buzz and Grandma Life Tease 00:56 Intro: Aaron Spelling, Nighttime Soaps, and Melrose Mania 02:21 Laura's Rewatch Podcast: Still the Place 03:04 Why Podcasting Feels Easier Than Acting 03:34 Rewatching Your 20s on Camera and the “Ick Attack” 04:21 Melrose Love Story: Meeting Doug Savant 04:52 26 Years Married and Raising Four Kids 05:10 Why Melrose Was a Cultural Phenomenon 05:27 Pre-Internet “Water Cooler TV” and Perfect Timing 06:17 Lightning in a Bottle: You Can't Manufacture It 06:53 The Reboot: Is It Really Happening? 06:59 Who's In and Why the Cast Still Feels Like Family 07:20 The Group Text, The Podcast Guests, The Real Bond 08:12 Churchill Quote: If You Want History, Write It 08:34 Aging in Hollywood and Steering Your Own Opportunities 09:03 Reality TV Changed Everything 09:19 The Early Reaction: “What Is This Crap?” 10:10 TikTok and Selfie Culture Is Not Going Away 10:28 Being Photographed Everywhere, Even at the Grocery Store 10:59 Social Media as a Tool, But Also Exhausting 11:59 Podcast Learning Curve: Why Rewatch Makes It Easy 12:33 Sets That Feel Good vs Sets That Don't 13:03 Fondest Melrose Memory: It Felt Like a Family 14:13 You Don't Fully Appreciate It Until Later 14:34 What's Next: Producing and Building Projects 15:30 The Joy of Becoming a Grandparent 16:13 Watching Your Kid Become a Parent 17:07 “I Told You So” and Moms Always Being Right 17:28 Holidays With a Grandbaby and the Photos 18:05 Nana Duties: Teaching Piano, LA Traffic Included 18:37 The Weird Fan Encounter: Nurse Thought Sydney Was Real 19:32 Being Too Convincing Can Backfire in Meetings 20:59 Which Show People Recognize You From Now 21:35 Melrose vs 90210 and Why People Mix Them Up 22:05 One-Word Cast Shoutouts: Heather, Rinna, Grant, Marcia 23:19 Cast Friendships That Stayed Warm and Real 23:43 Missing the Weekly “TV Family” Feeling 24:18 Leaving After Five Seasons: The Contract Turning Point 24:42 The Last Day: Fighting Tears 25:02 Rapid Fire: First Crush, Movies, Pizza, Worst Subject 29:09 Fame Before Cell Phones: Honeymoon Recognition 30:14 Fake Names at Hotels During Peak Fame 30:42 The Morning After Leaving: Relief vs Grief 33:34 Being Married to an Actor: Teamwork, Not Competition 34:10 Doug's Groundbreaking Gay Character and Pride 35:13 Aging in Hollywood and Fewer Opportunities 36:34 Self-Tapes: Why Auditioning Feels Harder Now 37:54 What Self-Tapes Took Away: Feedback and Connection 39:53 Steve's Acting Dream and the “Pajamas Job” Idea 41:15 The Role She Lost: Torn ACL, Renee Zellweger Replacement 43:12 The Musical Muscle She Wishes She'd Kept 44:36 TV Movies in Hiatus: The 90s Career Strategy 45:30 The Big Regret: Turning Down Rizzo on Broadway 46:14 Closing Thanks     Laura Leighton's Melrose Place rewatch Podcast is: STILL THE PLACE https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/still-the-place/id1754955354 Show CreditsHost/Producer: Steve KmetkoAll things technical: Justin ZangerleExecutive Producer: Jim LichtensteinMusic by: Brian SanyshynTranscription: Mushtaq Hussain https://stillherehollywood.comhttp://patreon.com/stillherehollywoodSuggest Guests at: stillherehollywood@gmail.comAdvertise on Still Here Hollywood: jim@stillherenetwork.comPublicist: Maggie Perlich: maggie@numbertwelvemarketing.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Summary In this episode, Andy talks with Wharton economist Judd Kessler, author of Lucky by Design: The Hidden Economics You Need to Get More of What You Want. If you have ever looked at someone else's career success and thought, "They just got lucky," this conversation will give you a new lens. Judd introduces the idea of "hidden markets," the informal rules and systems that shape who gets opportunities, access, and scarce resources, even when money is not changing hands. They explore how leaders can evaluate allocation rules using Judd's three Es (equitable, efficient, and easy), why first come, first served "races" often reward availability more than merit, and how waiting lists can quietly shift costs onto the people least able to pay them. You will also hear Judd's "settle for silver" strategy, a practical way to make smarter choices in competitive markets, plus a thoughtful parenting angle on teaching kids to notice rules and incentives early. If you're looking for a fresh, research-backed perspective on how hidden rules shape who gets opportunities at work and in life, this episode is for you! Sound Bites "The goal of the book is to get people to start to recognizing these markets all around us." "In most of these markets, they play by a simple rule that we all understand, which is if you're willing to pay for the thing, then you get it." "Is the way that we're deciding who gets what... is it equitable? Is it efficient? And is it easy for market participants?" "I open my calendar and I see all these recurring meetings on my calendar, recurring meetings that were set up years or months ago. That's first in time, first in right." "If you understand the rules and develop strategies to get what you want from the market, then you actually can be one of the handful that actually gets the thing, that desirable outcome, and then it will look like you got lucky." "It's always going to be the folks who are in the market winning who are always going to think that it's fair." "Once you start thinking like, how am I actually allocating these things? That's when you've put on that market designer hat." "They'll come to you kind of with half-baked ideas because they know if they wait later on until they can fully bake the idea that the resources or the fun parts of the project might already be gone." "Part of what the Settle for Silver / Go for Gold Strategy is forcing you to do, is to think seriously about what you want and why you want it." "You, as a parent, you are designing the markets that your kids play in all the time." "We're not breaking the rules, but we are figuring out what they are so that we can put ourselves in a good position, and that's going to serve you well." "Maybe by being in the office, you are signaling your dedication to the firm that you're available for all of these opportunities." "If it's something that anybody can do, like send a quick email, right? That's, it's not actually costly. Anybody could send that email even if they're not truly dedicated and eager for the opportunity." "You cannot get all three E's for sure in any allocation mechanism. There's always going to be tradeoffs."

Building a sustainable voiceover career in 2026 requires more than great performance—it means understanding how agencies submit talent, how online casting has evolved, and how discoverability now works in an increasingly digital and AI-influenced landscape. Today's voice actors need clarity, adaptability, and a strategy grounded in how the industry actually operates. In this episode of VO BOSS, Anne Ganguzza and J. Michael Collins sit down for a candid conversation about modern voiceover career strategy. Together, they explore how submissions are filtered behind the scenes, why becoming a trusted, go-to talent matters more than constant chasing, and how marketing, SEO, and emerging AI search tools now play a role in being found. This episode offers practical, experience-based insight into building a career that's positioned for long-term success.      Chapter Summaries: The Entrepreneurial "Happy Accident" (04:14) JMC reflects on a 30-year career built on "happy accidents" and flying by the seat of his pants. He emphasizes that a successful voiceover career strategy requires constant evolution. He discusses his "full circle" journey—starting in traditional studios, becoming a pioneer of online casting, and returning to a heavy focus on agency and broadcast work. Legwork and the "100 Touches" Rule (09:56) The hosts discuss the significant increase in effort required for modern talent. JMC suggests that the old standard of 20 daily marketing "touches" is obsolete; today, a competitive voiceover business requires closer to 100 touches a day (auditions + direct marketing) to maintain a tough climb in a saturated market. Demystifying the Agency World (09:29) JMC addresses a common misconception: agents are not scary gatekeepers; they work for you. He breaks down how agency submissions really work—where hundreds of voiceover auditions may be received for a single role, but only a small, carefully selected group is ever sent to the client. For voice actors, success comes from shifting the focus away from constant outreach and toward becoming a trusted, go-to talent within an agency's roster.  The New Frontier: LLM Search and SEO (21:07) Anne and JMC dive into the "New SEO." Beyond traditional Google rankings, talent must now optimize for AI chatbots like ChatGPT and Claude. JMC reveals he is booking multiple jobs per week from clients who found him by asking an AI bot for recommendations. This requires a comprehensive digital footprint that AI models can crawl and trust. Longevity and the "Five-Figure Wall" (16:04) JMC offers blunt advice for newer talent: getting to those first $20,000–$30,000 in annual revenue is the hardest part of the job. Once you hit that low five-figure traction, scaling to six figures is often a faster process because you have already developed the resilience and technical skills needed to survive rejection. The Immersion Strategy: VO Conferences (32:39) As the producer of VO Atlanta, One Voice USA, and his signature Euro Retreats, JMC explains why live events are the ultimate "Super Bowl" for career growth. He discusses the difference between intimate retreats (EuroVO) and massive immersion events, emphasizing that the relationships and "lifelong families" built at these conferences are often more valuable than the sessions themselves.     Top 10 Takeaways for Voice Actors: Embrace the Hustle: Aim for 100 marketing touches or auditions daily to stay ahead of the competition. Optimize for Chatbots: Ensure your website content is detailed and clear so LLMs like ChatGPT can index you for specific genre recommendations. Agents are Partners: Treat agents as people who work for you; focus on becoming the "easy choice" that they prioritize for shortlists. Traditional SEO Still Matters: Being on Page 1 or 2 of Google provides "walk-in business" that allows you to stop constant chasing. Focus on High-Tier Portals: If using pay-to-plays, aim for top-tier memberships (like 123 Platinum) to bypass the saturation of lower tiers. LinkedIn is the Pro Choice: Focus your social media marketing on LinkedIn, where professional grade buyers live, rather than consumer-heavy sites like Facebook. Persist Past the First $30k: Realize that the first five-figure stretch is the most difficult; the snowball effect happens once you establish a baseline. Demos are Still Non-Negotiable: You cannot get agency representation or high-end direct work without an award-winning, professional demo. Invest in Live Connection: Attend conferences like VO Atlanta or One Voice to build the "community family" that sustains a long-term career. Do It Your Way: Forge your own path by blending old-school agency work with new-school direct marketing and SEO strategy.

A few years ago, I was objectively successful: good role, good title, on track for the next promotion. I had my time management dialed in. My calendar was color-coded. I was the most "productive" person I knew.And I was completely miserable. Because I was spending 80% of my week doing work that drained me. Work I was good at. Work I delivered well. Work that looked impressive from the outside. But it wasn't MY work.In this episode, we're going beyond time management and daily energy tactics. We're talking about energy as your career navigation system.You'll learn:The four kinds of work (and why only one of them sustains you long-term)Why the "Excellence Zone" is the most dangerous place to build your career, and where most high performers burn outThe promotion I almost took that would have broken me (and the framework I used to evaluate it)How to map any career opportunity to see if it will energize or deplete youThe difference between a role that looks impressive and a role that's actually alignedThree questions to ask before saying yes to your next opportunityThis isn't about doing less. It's about designing a career around what actually sustains you, not just what looks good on paper.If you did last week's energy audit and you're asking "Now what?", this is your answer.Want to explore one-on-one growth & career coaching, schedule a discovery call with me here: https://bit.ly/carolina-coaching

Grab my free e-course, where I break down job titles, salary ranges, and employers hiring macro social workers right now. Here is the link: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://macroandpaid.com/https://macroandpaid.com/--- Why Introverts Have the Career Advantage Right Now | Macro Social Work, Career Strategy & Professional Leverage Introverts are not behind in the job market. They are positioned. In this podcast episode, I break down why introverts are uniquely equipped to lead systems-level change right now and how your natural way of thinking, observing, and working is a professional leverage point, not a limitation. If you're an introverted social worker, case manager, or systems thinker who feels overlooked, underestimated, or pressured to perform like the loudest person in the room, this conversation is for you. In this episode, I explain in plain language: • What professional leverage points are and why they matter in today's job market • Why introversion is a strategic advantage in macro social work and systems change • How observation, pattern recognition, and depth of thinking create real career momentum • Why employers are quietly shifting away from charisma and toward substance • How introverts naturally build high-trust relationships that drive funding, partnerships, and impact • Why focused execution and depth of work lead to visibility and advancement • How to stop treating your introversion like something you need to fix • How to prepare now for macro roles without overcorrecting or burning out I also talk about the broader shift happening across social media, nonprofits, government, and mission-driven organizations and why authentic, thoughtful systems focused social workers are becoming more valuable as surface-level noise increases. This is not an “introverts vs extroverts” conversation. It's about alignment, timing, and leverage. If you've ever felt like your ideas are ahead of the room but you're unsure how to position yourself, this episode will help you see your strengths clearly and use them on purpose.

Send us a textYou committed to speaking up more in meetings. You lasted three days. Now it's been three weeks, and your inner critic is convinced you don't have what it takes to lead at the next level.Sound familiar? Here is the truth that changes everything:You do not have a capability problem. You have a recovery problem.Most leaders think the key to success is discipline—never falling off the wagon. But the reality is that executives fall off just as often as middle managers. The difference is speed. A middle manager takes three months to recover; an executive recovers in three hours.In this episode, I am breaking down exactly why you keep starting and stopping your professional development initiatives, and I'm introducing The Quick Recovery Method—a 4-step framework specifically designed to help you stop the shame spiral and build real momentum.In this episode, you will learn:The "Discipline Myth": Why relying on willpower to stay consistent is a guaranteed strategy for failure.The 4-Step Framework: How to use the "Recognize, Reframe, Replace, Restart" method to get back on track in minutes, not months.The "Bridge Thought" Strategy: How to bypass toxic positivity and find the specific thoughts that actually move you into action right now.The Black Friday Trap: Why buying another planner or leadership course won't fix your follow-through problem (and what actually will).If you have a graveyard of half-finished goals and are ready to stop beating yourself up for being human, this episode is your reset button.Resources & Links:Book a Complimentary Leadership Clarity Call with Kele About Your Host:Kele Belton is a communication and leadership facilitator, coach, and speaker who specializes in helping women leaders develop confidence and impact through strategic communication and practical leadership frameworks.Connect with Kele for more leadership insights:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kele-ruth-belton/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thetailoredapproach/Website: https://thetailoredapproach.com

Send us a textThere is a massive difference between being polite and being strategic.Most women leaders are courteous. They say "thank you" and acknowledge hard work. But most miss the specific leadership opportunity that separates middle management from executive leadership: Strategic Appreciation.Real influence isn't just about delivering results; it's about building a network of professional goodwill that becomes currency when you need it most. When you shift from generic gratitude to specific, impact-focused recognition, you stop being just "nice" and start positioning yourself as a leader who understands outcomes and elevates the people around you.In this episode of Communicate to Lead, Kele breaks down exactly how to use strategic appreciation to strengthen relationships and build your leadership brand. With Thanksgiving week approaching, there is no better time to implement this low-stakes, high-impact strategy.In this episode, you will learn:The "Polite vs. Strategic" Trap: Why generic "thanks for all you do" emails are noise, not leadership, and how to shift your approach.The 5 Categories of Influence: The specific people you need to appreciate this week (including the one category most women overlook).The 3-Part Framework: A simple formula for writing recognition messages that land with impact and make you memorable.Career Positioning: How this 10-minute practice signals executive presence and gets you advocated for in rooms you aren't in.Next Steps:This Week's Assignment: Identify 3-5 people from the categories discussed in the episode and send them a message using the 3-Part Framework before the holiday break.About Your Host:Kele Belton is a communication and leadership facilitator, coach, and consultant who specializes in helping women leaders develop confidence and impact through strategic communication and practical leadership frameworks.Connect with Kele for more leadership insights:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kele-ruth-belton/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thetailoredapproach/Website: https://thetailoredapproach.com

Send us a textA cold November forecast isn't just about the weather. We unpack the rumoured tax rises and talk plainly about value: why working people are told to pay more while getting less from basics like transport and the NHS. From there, we zoom in on power dynamics how leadership shields or exposes you and what it really means when institutions police tone instead of tackling racism. If you've ever been told “it was the situation, not you,” this conversation gives you language, strategy, and a line in the sand.The business runway is packed with lessons. Toys R Us shows what happens when you outsource the customer relationship and “win” money but lose time. Plant Made's new ownership underlines the hard rules of capital, fulfilment, and scaling at a pace your operations can actually serve. And there's a masterclass in talent placement as Skims taps Diarrha N'Diaye to build beauty and fragrance proof that cultural fluency and product excellence win globally. We also track MAC's push into Sephora US and what legacy brands must do to earn attention in a Fenty shaped market.Money talks, and sometimes it walks. The Target boycott demonstrates how collective spending choices force corporate pivots, while “courses without capital” feel like optics. On the career front, we challenge the trap that trades flexibility for lower-skilled work. The better path, make them fall in love with your impact, then negotiate time, place, and scope without downgrading pay or progression. You'll leave with practical framing to assess managers, hold boundaries, and architect your next move like a business protecting its core.Enjoyed this conversation?
