About This Podcast

So, I’ve just been made redundant, whilst on paternity leave with my first son. In the sheer panic of ’things a person should probably do’, it made sense to have an outlet and as therapy costs money, this made sense. This noble mission quickly evolved into something that might help other people that were fired, made redundant, dishonourably discharged... or anything else causing a person to be out of work. Here we discuss the challenges and opportunities of searching for work. If you’re feeling lost, overwhelmed, uninformed or uninspired, this is for you! Happy Listening!
