In this episode, Shell, Glen James and Phil Thompson unpack the career advice we've all heard at some point, and ask: is it actually helpful, or totally outdated? From “follow your passion” to “fake it till you make it,” they dig into what still holds up, what belongs in the bin, and how to know the difference. They cover:

👉 “follow your passion” - helpful or harmful?

👉🏿 when ‘fake it till you make it’ goes too far

👉🏼 why working hard won’t always get you noticed

👉🏾 can you actually be friends with your boss?

👉🏻 resume myths: headshots, one-pagers & old-school advice

👉 when to ask for a raise (and why you should)

👉🏿 why your team is not your family

👉🏼 the role of luck vs hard work in your career

👉🏾 the one piece of advice Glen actually listened to
