Ep 100: Celebration of our 100th episode and our first guest - Propelling Careers Podcast

Welcome to Propelling Careers Podcast episode 100. We cannot believe we have made it this far… One source I foundindicated that 6.25% of all podcasts make it to 100 episodes. Another source I found said about 5% - regardless, a small amount of the entire network of podcasts make it to 100. We are really proud that we have been able to developmeaningful content to help our listeners navigate their career journey over the last 25 months.  When we started, we were not really sure where this would go - we just wanted to put good, truthful, honest content out there to help people. Since Feb 1, 2024, people have been listening and giving us positive reinforcement. This has helped motivate us to continue and we really appreciate this.   During this episode, we also will reach another milestone - we will have our first guest! Our first guest is Joey, my nephew, who painted the picture that is our podcast logo.  Lets talk about  celebrating milestonesKeeping momentumCreating goalsHow goals and milestones are differentFeedback from our listeners has kept us motivatedEpisodes that we have gotten a lot of feedback on include episodes that are part of a series as well as these below Ep 82 help me help youThe interview red, green, yellow, beige flag episodes 19-23 and also episode 97, 67, and 68Ep 73 the 26 steps in a job search process  Ep 33 and 34 networking adviceHow to navigate the current landscape Ep 58 getting your game face onEp 81 proactive tips for mentoring relationshipsLauren Celano, CEO of Propel Careers and Jim Gould, the Director for Postdoctoral Affairs at Harvard Medical School, launched this podcast as a way for us to share our advice, insights, and reflections to help others navigate their careers.
