Being busy isn't the same as moving forward. In this episode, we unpack why so many high-performers lose sight of where they actually stand in their careers — and what to do about it. Through Tess's story of effort without clarity, we introduce the Career Reset Framework for assessing where you are, ask the gut-check question "If nothing changed for the next three years, how would you feel?", and explore why clarity matters more than busyness in an AI-shaped work era. You'll leave with reflection prompts to help you decide what to carry forward in a mid-career change — and what you're finally allowed to set down.
