Your Career Journey
Careers rarely go exactly to plan.
There are changes in direction, unexpected opportunities, difficult decisions, setbacks and moments when we're not quite sure what comes next.
That's what Your Career Journey is about.
I'm Emma Graham, a career coach with a background in recruitment, and in each episode I sit down with leaders, marketers, creatives and experienced professionals to talk about the reality behind their careers.
Not just where they've ended up, but how they got there.
We talk about the decisions they've made, the opportunities they've taken, the things that haven't worked out and what they've learnt along the way.
You'll hear honest conversations about career change, leadership, confidence, adaptability, networking, navigating uncertainty and staying relevant as the world of work changes.
Because I don't believe there's one right way to build a successful career.
But I do think there's a lot we can learn from understanding how other people have approached theirs.
My hope is that each conversation gives you something useful to take away and apply to your own career—whether you're thinking about your next move, looking to grow where you are, or simply wanting to be more intentional about what comes next.
Welcome to Your Career Journey.
