The market is shaky. Return-to-office mandates are inconsistent. Promotions feel like a moving target. But one thing hasn’t changed: you’re still responsible for your own career growth.
In this episode, Mamuna Oladipo and Lola Oyelayo-Pearson get real about what it takes to build and own a growth plan, especially when the rest of work feels unpredictable. Whether you're remote, hybrid, or just tired, now is the time to stop hinting, stop waiting, and start showing receipts.
