JobsWorth - Abby Thomas

My guest this week is Essex based  Social Media Manager, Strategist and Content Creator, Abby Thomas.“I spent the majority of my 20’s working in a corporate role feeling like I was watching myself live out someone else’s life.”It’s a powerful statement and one that I think will resonate with a lot of our listeners. Abby’s is a story of  resilience, hard graft and ultimately a lesson in the liberation that comes from  getting sh*t done on your own terms. During our conversation we talk about the pressure that so many of us feel in our late teens to get a “proper job” and how that can lead us to turn our back on the things we love doing. We talk about what it takes to leave the perceived security of the corporate world, overcoming redundancy, the reality of building a business from scratch and the very real impact of burnout. I also ask Abby a load of your questions on all things social media (get your note pad out and prepare to create better, more authentic content) and my mum comes up with a banger of a question to close things out. Please enjoy…Abby Thomas. #jobsworth #podcast #career #worklife #storiesthatinspirechangeThe JobsWorth website is here www.jobs-worth.comWatch the show on YouTube; https://www.youtube.com/@jobsworthpodcastFollow the show on Instagram; https://www.instagram.com/jobsworthpodcast/?hl=enFollow me on LinkedIn; https://www.linkedin.com/in/johnhawker/Follow me on TikTok; https://www.tiktok.com/@globaltechcollectiveSubscribe to my newsletter 'The Job Journal from GTC'; https://subscribepage.io/TheJobJournalLearn more about my proper job; https://www.globaltechcollective.com/Contact the show on [email protected]
