3 Career Takeaways

1) Your employer is not your parent. When talking to them you need to speak to them on your level: “Have these conversations like two adults in the room, they are not your parents. And that's something that we really need to change in the workplace.”

2) On finding purpose and paying for a career coach: “You don't need a coach for that! What you actually need is to want to enjoy your work!”

3) The people can make or break the workplace “Do you enjoy the people that you work with? Have a real think about it, because that's actually one of the big things. They say you don't leave a job, you leave the boss, and [sometimes you need to] leave a toxic workplace.”
