Career Transition
Yesterday you identified your most monetizable skills. Today you create access to people who will pay for those skills. Freelance platforms connect people who need specific tasks completed with people who can do that work. You won't build a full-time income on these platforms immediately, but you can
Resilience Experiments
Yesterday you identified your three most transferable skills. Today you address the gap between where you are and where you need to be. Your most transferable skills give you flexibility if circumstances change. But transferability alone doesn't guarantee employment. You also need competence at a level that makes
Career Transition
When you're unemployed, every application feels urgent. You apply to multiple positions daily, respond to whatever looks promising, and try to remember which companies you've contacted. Within two weeks, the details blur together. You can't remember if you followed up with the marketing manager
Resilience Experiments
Your job security depends partly on factors outside your control. The one factor you can control is how prepared you are if circumstances change. Most people wait until they're job searching to think about which skills matter beyond their current role. By then, they're under pressure

The gap between what you need and what you're receiving creates financial pressure that intensifies every week. Quick income from freelance or gig work won't replace your salary,
Workplace Strategy
You're full on Fridays. Your calendar is a disaster. So a weekly review sounds like another obligation, not help. Most weekly reviews are designed by people with time to kill. They want you to journal your feelings, reflect on wins, identify blockers, review quarterly goals, and plan next
Workplace Strategy
You're at capacity. Someone asks for your time. You feel the tension immediately: say yes and overcommit, or say no and risk being labeled difficult. Most people choose overcommitment. They say yes, then under-deliver or burn out. This damages credibility faster than an honest no ever could. The
