Career Change, Career Freedom, and Work-Life Balance - what we've learnt so far

from Outlaws Podcast: Embracing Career Freedom · host Shayla Strapps & Kate Offer | Outlaws Podcast

20 episodes. Countless conversations. One big Outlaw experiment. In this special wrap-up episode, hosts Shayla Strapps and Kate Offer look back on Season 1 of the Outlaws Podcast, where career change, career pivots, and the pursuit of real career freedom were front and centre. What started as two ex-lawyers chatting has become a community of professionals unlearning the rules, ditching the shoulds, and designing work-life balance that actually fits. Along the way, we’ve laughed a lot, learned even more, and gathered the kind of stories that remind you you’re not stuck, you’re just one experiment away from change. Here’s what you’ll hear in the Season 1 finale: – The most downloaded episodes and why they struck a chord – Tiny experiments vs giant leaps: why the small stuff sparks big career pivots – The Backwards Budget and how it reframes money, worth, and freedom – Outlawbrary highlights from 4,000 Weeks to Tiny Experiments – The best guest quotes (hello, “discomfort is uncomfortable”) that made us laugh and rethink everything – What’s coming in Season 2: imposter syndrome, decision-making, Outlaws going international, and more Whether you’re contemplating a career change, testing out a side hustle, or just craving better work-life balance, this wrap-up will give you a boost of courage and a peek at what’s next.

In this special season finale, we look back on the conversations, quotes, and surprises that shaped our first season. From tiny experiments and side hustles to the Backwards Budget and Outlawbrary favourites like 4,000 Weeks and Tiny Experiments, we reflect on the moments that resonated most with our listeners and with us. Along the way we revisit guest stories that pushed us to rethink what career pivots and career freedom really look like, from leaving law to breathwork, sabbaticals, and sleep science. We share the quotes that stuck, the themes that kept coming up, and the laughter that kept us going - including Kate’s instant classic quote, “discomfort is uncomfortable,” which might just end up on a mug. It’s a chance to pause, celebrate, and take stock of how far we’ve come in 20 weeks of honest conversations about career change, career freedom, and work-life balance. And it’s also a preview of what’s coming in Season 2, from tackling imposter syndrome to decision-making to Outlaws going international.
