The Career Edge™ - by Brize®
Welcome to The Career Edge, where we unpack how work actually works.
Most professionals spend years figuring out the unwritten rules of the workplace on their own. This show is built to change that.
Hosted by Leslie Ferry, founder of Brize and creator of Zandra, The Career Edge explores the questions most career conversations never ask. What actually drives careers forward. How others interpret your decisions, communication, and actions through their unique lens. And how small, deliberate shifts based on this information create momentum that compounds over time.
No generic advice. No recycled career tips. Just honest conversations designed to provoke a question worth thinking about long after the episode ends.
New episodes every Tuesday and Thursday.

Quiet Quitting as a Form of Silent Protest? Every action has an equal and opposite reaction
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Have you heard about the new trend at work, quiet quitting? If you are not up to date on this latest viral trend, quiet quitting is not about leaving a job but a process of starting to do the minimum amount of work possible while keeping a job.
Like most human-related topics, this one is complicated and can have long-term negative consequences if we do not carefully consider why we might opt to take this approach to work.
We need to remember that Every action has an equal and opposite reaction.
In this episode, Leslie explores the longer-term impacts of deciding to practice quiet quitting. She also shares a personal story about how to reframe the "Above and Beyond" mentality, which led her to accept a job with an almost 50% pay cut.
