This month we're doing another round of our series the essentials. This series brings women in essential industries together with experts to teach us all about essential career skills. New episodes will cover retaining talent, being persuasive, managing up and delegating successfully for unique perspectives and top notch advice. Check out the essentials right here in the women at work. Hod cansme, ruka, nina, emily, do you have any questions for each other? Is there anything you want as i've got a question: What do you think the biggest difference has been in the people you are now, verses the people you were pre the pandemic?
Just like 2020, this past year didn’t turn out like we expected. And, yet, we got through it. In this episode, we reconnect with three women who were on our show during the height of the pandemic to find out what they’ve been up to and how they’re making sense of the big shifts in society, our workplaces, and our lives. The questions they’re asking themselves are important ones: Is the path I’m on the right one? What does a “healthy and happy me at work” look like?
We discuss the value of self-reflection, why we’ve generally been putting it off, and the introspection that the death of a family member brings about. The Amys reflect on two recent losses, how they managed grief and work, and the lessons they took away from those experiences.
