“Kidnappers are just businessmen looking for a great deal”    That's how Scott Walker, legendary hostage negotiator reframes his work (with a 93% success rate) in high stakes situations you can apply to yours.    Let's call a spade a spade. You can feel like a hostage in your job search.    Every interview can fire off an emotion.  Your future, in limbo.  Your finances handcuffed Your head, unclear who to trust, including yourself.    We can all learn from Scott starting with:   The River of Emotion:  A metaphor to overcome emotional hijacking.  His tip, observe NOT absorb. Stand on the riverbank without swimming in the current.   The 3-2-1 Formula:  Sort your challenges into three buckets: What you can control, influence, or must ignore   Trust as the Golden Thread:  Understand how trust is the foundation of all successful negotiations.  The simple (but not easy) principle: do what you say you're going to do.   Embracing Conflict:  Learn why the "conflict call" is often necessary to establish boundaries and expectations. Having direct, candid, kind conversations enhances your value and presence.   The 30-Second Reset:  Practice pausing throughout your day to feel the feeling and drop the story.  This simple habit builds the emotional muscle needed for higher-stakes situations.   Negotiating our emotional regulation isn't limited to hostage situations or boardrooms - it's simply "a conversation with purpose" that we all engage in daily.    Like what you hear?

How do you manage the stress of looming layoffs? Last month, layoffs across the U.S. rose an astonishing 205% compared to March of last year, for a total of 275,240 job cuts. Stats like these mean layoffs are top of mind for many people these days. You might be finding yourself in limbo right now, wondering if you're next on the list to receive a pink slip.

In this episode, I take another break from interviewing guests to share some quick thoughts on how to use job boards effectively in your job search. While I spend a lot of time encouraging clients to make networking the central focus of their career exploration, job postings still have value—if used strategically. I share practical tips on how to leverage listings for market research, generate new ideas, and customize your applications to stand out.

The first thing most people do after being laid off is dive into job boards and start applying everywhere. It feels productive, even logical – it's a numbers game, right? Yet the people who get re-employed fastest aren't playing that game at all. They're using an entirely different playbook that turns a layoff into a career upgrade. In this episode, Scott reveals the counterintuitive strategies that create multiple job options instead of just frantically collecting rejections. Discover how to use this rare moment to redefine what work means for you, not just replace what you lost.   Our book, Happen To Your Career: An Unconventional Approach To Career Change and Meaningful Work, is now available on audiobook!

But beyond the friendly pups, he saw firsthand the importance of both customer and employee experience, which set him on a path of discovery and career growth.With a high-empathy mindset, Michael made small leaps that took him from the frontlines of the postal service into a corporate customer experience role, and eventually across the country to become the Manager of Customer Experience for a global organization. He now also serves on advisory boards for multiple CX organizations, helping shape the future of the field.In this episode, we dive into:The power of mentorship and why you shouldn't be afraid to lean on your networkWhy employee experience matters just as much as customer experienceThe importance of finding the right workplace culture for long-term happinessHow small, calculated risks can open unexpected doorsThe delicate balance between career ambitions and personal passions—and why Michael chose to keep photography as a creative outlet rather than a jobHow embracing vulnerability at work can strengthen professional relationshipsMichael's story is a reminder that career changes don't have to happen all at once—sometimes, it's the little shifts that add up to something big.Connect with Michael

If so, you're doing it wrong, according to Find Your Dream Job guest Angie Callen. Networking is simply building and nurturing relationships with others, and we all do that with friends and family every day. Angie suggests being proactive but not aggressive and focusing on long-term relationships. She says it's a mistake to only seek someone out for what they can offer you. That is inauthentic. Build authenticity by being true to who you are and finding others who are like-minded or whom you want to know more about.  About Our Guest: Angie Callen is an award-winning career and business coach and the founder of Career Benders.

In this episode of Lessons from a Quitter, we explore how AI, specifically ChatGPT, can revolutionize your career change, job search, and professional development. While addressing common concerns about AI's environmental impact, we also highlight the nuanced reality of technology's role in our lives. More importantly, we dive into practical ways AI can help you discover new career paths, refine your job search, and even network strategically.

If you've ever been blindsided by a layoff, wrestled with feeling “too old” for the job search, or wondered if your career peak is behind you, this episode is for you. In this deeply honest and refreshingly human episode, I speak with Nick Passarelli, a fintech exec and former HR leader whose early career taught him the hard truth: corporate loyalty doesn't always pay off. From leading mass layoffs at just 24 years old to witnessing longtime employees get pushed out with nowhere to go, Nick saw firsthand how brutal and impersonal the system can be. Those early experiences shaped his lifelong commitment to advocating against ageism and helping older professionals navigate a work world that's not exactly rooting for them.We talk layoffs, job searches after 50, ageism's impact on women, and why “Jenga families” are more common than you think. Nick brings honesty, humility, and plenty of practical advice (and memes–yes, really) to a conversation every mid-career professional needs to hear.Nick's story is a powerful reminder that reinvention is possible and that empathy, preparation, and a little humor can go a long way.“Never add your work friends onto your socials because they could totally use that against you. I learned this through a friend at my old company, and I thought it was brilliant.” ~ Nick PassarelliIn This Episode:-Nick's diverse career path, from HR to fintech-Mass layoffs during Y2K and the emotional toll-First encounter with ageism, layoffs for long-tenured workers-Transitioning from HR to compliance, adapting career focus-What it's like for a young recruiter to interview older candidates-Maximizing “prime earning years” (35-55) and balancing expenses-“Jenga families” and the financial risks of not planning for job transitions-The personal impact of job loss in your 50s-How women can set themselves up for success-Networking, upskilling, and staying positive in a job search-Keeping the fun and laughter despite your corporate situationAnd much more!Resources:-Ross Pomerantz aka Corporate Bro: https://www.instagram.com/corporate.bro/-Corporate Natalie: https://www.instagram.com/corporatenatalie/-Ben Sweeny: https://www.instagram.com/corporate.sween/-Jamie Jackson: https://www.instagram.com/humorous_resources/-LinkedIn Learning (Free and paid courses to enhance skills): https://www.linkedin.com/learning/-SHRM (Society for Human Resource Management) Certifications: https://www.shrm.org/mena/credentials/certificationConnect with Nick Passarelli:-LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nick-passarelli-9777454/Connect with Maureen Clough:-LinkedIn: maureenwclough -

When candidates prepare for their interviews, most make the mistake of solely focusing on rehearsing answers to common questions. Uh, no good. I've got a much more effective way to truly elevate your performance and get better results. Remember, as I've reminded you, oh, I dunno, about a bajillion times, the most qualified candidate often doesn't get the job. So, there are other aspect of your interview interaction you need to nail! There's the storytelling part. I've gone to great lengths to teach you my CAAR technique and how to prepare and package your “power stories.” Those lessons are fantastic and you can find them on my YouTube channel. They will teach you tactically how to identify the right stories and deliver them. That is, how to write the lyrics to the song. Today, however, I have a next-level lesson on ways to improve your “performance.” I'm talking not about the song itself, but the singing, dancing, and energetic part of the delivery that is overlooked by job seekers but mostly what the interviewer notices! If you'd like to build a great career and lead a rewarding life, check out some of these other places where I share my teachings: 1. Check out the milewalk Academy, my coaching and training site, for freemiums and premiums. 2. I have hundreds of educational and inspirational videos on my YouTube Channel. 3.

I also, whenever possible, scroll down my feed and every time I see a person that is  hashtag #opentowork, I drop an invite to my next  hashtag #LinkedInLive event or if I am not having one my  hashtag #YouTube page that has hundreds of videos and audio events. I know that I have helped thousands of people in some way to get out of the canyon called  hashtag #Unemployment and back into the job world. I could've charged a lot of money to a lot of people over the years because my stuff works and it works fast if you are someone that goes and attacks challenges. I don't charge people a lot of money because they need their money to eat and pay their rent and provide for their family when they are unemployed because they don't know when that nightmare will end. That is why I don't make it a giant moneymaking endeavor. I do this from the heart because I never forget how bad it felt to be unemployed and how awful every day was until I knew what my next job was. That said, I cannot believe when someone is offered free help from someone who has been doing it for as long as I have that they would ignore my invite and not come to the event. All I will say is here is an invite to my next event and if you are a  hashtag #jobseeker you should come because something I say will help you to get in next great opportunity. It's different for every person, but something will resonate. With all of the people being mistreated and ghosted and punched in the face on this platform by people who have no interest in helping, I offer all I can give you to help you get back on your feet.
