In this holiday special episode, Julie helps you navigate the question you’re sure to get at holiday parties and meals: “So…. how’s work going?” For those in a career transition or struggling with their current job, this simple question may make you feel anxious or stressed (Perhaps you want to go hide in the coat closet?)
Julie shares three ways you can handle this question with grace, depending on the setting and your comfort level. From polite, surface-level responses to ways of steering the conversation toward a different topic, you’ll be prepared for whatever comes your way this holiday season.
Julie closes the episode by urging you to give yourself grace during this holiday season. For more on this topic, listen to episode 26, featuring a conversation with her producer Bree, who shared her own awkward story about being in a career transition and NOT wanting to talk about it socially.
