Stuck at Work? Stefanie Sword-Williams on the Career Comedown
Feeling stuck in your career even though everything looks “right” on paper?
In this episode of The Wallet, Emilie Bellet is joined by Stephanie Sword-Williams, founder of F*ck Being Humble and author of Career Comedown, to explore the idea of a career comedown, that quiet moment when the path you’re on no longer feels right, even if it looks good on paper, and how ambition, energy, money, and work decisions are more connected than we realise.
We discuss:
- Early signs you might be settling rather than choosing
- Care-out, gratitude guilt, and people-pleasing
- Redefining success and healthy ambition
- How to factor money, savings, and financial security into big career decisions
