WTF happened to job security? A new round of tech and media layoffs are announced every week (looking at you, Tesla and Microsoft) and booming industries go bust faster than Tswift tickets sell out.

If you’ve dreamt of travelling the world while you work and living that #DigitalNomad life, it’s time to stop dreaming and start planning, because it’s more possible than you might think.

Corporate culture is changing faster than ever before. We have quiet quitting and AI, mass layoffs and Gen-Z disruptors, side hustles and WFH warriors. How do you stand out, and how do we even figure out what we want from our careers?

We had the privilege of talking with Karlyn Percil about the racial pandemic we’re still facing, and the state of diversity and equality in the workplace, and what we can do to make businesses more inclusive. Because equitable work is a key to breaking the cycle of oppression, and the right to earn a living in a safe, inclusive workplace is a basic human right.

In this episode, we learned how to use emotional intelligence and positive psychology to help create equal opportunities for BIPOC employees, to shift hiring practices and dated work cultures, and to eliminate harmful microaggressions that prevent employees from feeling safe enough to bring their whole selves to work.
