Season 3, Episode 1: All dressed up and nowhere to go (with guest Amy Rollings)

In the first episode of Season 3, Dahlia is joined by Amy Rollings to discuss the topic of redundancy, likening the situation to being 'All dressed up with nowhere to go'. This episode is one of the bravest and the most raw on the podcast so far - but perhaps also the most positive. Dahlia and Amy get really honest about redundancy, discussing how it feels, what to do next and how to get in control. Amy runs 'Let's Connect' and has helped a significant number of people make connections and build their network at the time they have needed it most in their careers. Alongside a very real account of redundancy based on lived experience, the episode discusses personal branding, building your network and taking your next step forward. The main messages in the episode include: 1. Everyone's career journey is unique, you have the opportunity to shape yours. 2. Your network is your net worth - invest in relationships 3. If at first you don't succeed, try, try and try again! If you are going through redundancy at the moment or thinking about what's next, this is the conversation you need to hear. Amy's experience includes roles at Burberry, Kurt Geiger and Michael Kors. In addition to running Let's Connect, Amy works as a Consultant and runs Rialto a homewares shop in Hackney, London. Topics in this episode include: fashion clothes style redundancy mental health and wellbeing confidence job seeking resilience personal brand personal branding
