Episode 9 - Retirement savings: How early is too early? With Darryl Mabini

Episode 10 - Leading in 2022; A year in review

It's a holiday season miracle! It's been an awesome year in a lot of ways, and a difficult year in many others. We take the opportunity of wrapping up the year, and the first season of our podcast, with a bit of a retrospective of 2022. We dive into the career-related things we've learned since joining new teams at the start of the year, give you an upfront explanation of the process and "hows" of starting a podcast, and our plans for the future.  We then explore what makes the holiday season special - a time to slow down, indulge, and reflect, but also a time to remind you that for some, the season can also be stressful and difficult. And that's okay! Happy Holidays everyone, and we'll see you all in 2023!

Episode 9 - Retirement savings: How early is too early? With Darryl Mabini

We're back, baby! It's been a while - it turns out scheduling is hard! We have a jam-packed episode for you today in return- our first episode with a guest!! We are so happy to be joined in this episode by Darryl Mabini, Assistant Vice President for Pension Advocacy & Research at the Healthcare of Ontario Pension Plan. We cover a wide range of topics, from the truths and myths of retirement saving, to parenting tips from a father of four! Note: Later in the episode, Linh got the Defined Contribution and Defined Benefit pension plan types switched around in one of her comments.

Episode 8 - Surviving on all sides of a layoff

It has been a particularly tough week for the tech industry, especially in Canada. Sean still has a job, but that doesn't make seeing coworkers and friends leaving any easier. Layoffs are a business decision, but how come it feels so personal? Linh and Sean share their perspectives on what we can do for ourselves, and for each other, when we have to say goodbye to our colleagues.

[Intermission] - The one about Personal Finance

SURPRISE! We're dropping a hot new pod as we leave for our first international trip since the pandemic, and couldn't keep from recording a slightly different kind of episode today. No vices. Not much career talk, and mostly just spilling our guts about our relationship with money over time, personal finance, and things we've learned that we would love to share about trying to be more in control of our money and not the other way around.  We'll be back in June with our normal podcast schedule!

Episode 6 - Jumping Ship - When and how to look for your next opportunity

We really get into it in this episode. We talk about why, when, and how one would go about looking for their next job opportunity (spoilers: you should always be checking in). Resume tips, the perspective from a hiring manager, and thoughts around timing are shared in a no-holds-barred, job-search-powered festival of getting to your Next Big Thing. This is also our last episode before our mid-season break! We will be back at'cha soon with guests and more!
