Whether you desire to one day strike out on your own, or create more diverse work options in your present job, Pamela Slim’s recently released book Body of Work: Finding the Thread That Ties Your Story Together

More and more of us are blending big-company jobs, start-up gigs, freelance work, and volunteer side projects. In an attempt to expand our knowledge, capabilities, and experience, we’ve built a career that’s difficult to explain. How do we make sense of it? Well, that’s where Pamela comes in.

In Body of Work
In today’s episode, Pamela will share how to:

- She’ll explain what she means by “naming your ingredients” and going beyond describing yourself by your job title or the name of your degree
- She’ll lay out her simple but effective “Loathing Scale” and how it can help you determine whether it might be time to branch out on your own
- And a lot more.
