| 6/15/26 | ![]() 143. Your Career Is Bigger Than One Bad Job with That Corporate Lawyer, Henry Nelson-Case | Sometimes the job is not the problem.

| 6/1/26 | ![]() 141. Why Quitting Your Corporate Job Might Be the Worst Way to Start a Business with Mike Shannon | There is a very loud version of entrepreneurship online right now: quit the job, burn the safety net, go all in, and figure it out later. I get the appeal. I also think that advice can get expensive very quickly, especially when the business has not been validated yet. Mike Shannon joins me to talk about the much messier, smarter side of starting a business. Mike has built multiple companies, appeared on Shark Tank, worked in AI, and wrote Sweaty Equity, a book about the unglamorous middle of entrepreneurship. His story is not the polished founder myth. It is Shark Tank one day, Chicago Bulls laundry room the next, then years of pivots, investor pressure, customer discovery, and learning how to actually build something that works. If you are a corporate professional, side hustler, first-time founder, or future entrepreneur wondering whether you should quit your job to start a business, this conversation is your reality check. We talk about why keeping your day job can create runway, why "build the thing, sell the thing" matters more than startup hype, and how to use messy action without blowing up your career stability. Inside this episode • Why quitting your job too early can create unnecessary founder pressure • How Mike Shannon went from Shark Tank with Mark Cuban to the Chicago Bulls laundry room • Why business validation matters more than investor validation • The simple startup framework: build the thing, sell the thing • How customer discovery helps you avoid forcing the wrong idea into the market • What Sweaty Equity reveals about the messy middle of entrepreneurship What's one "corporate game" rule you've learned the hard way? 🎯 Take the full Level Up Leadership Course: https://stan.store/thatcareercoach/p/get-started-with-my-play-the-corporate-game-course About Your Host: That Career Coach, Kendall Berg Kendall Berg is a career coach and creator, helping ambitious professionals master the unspoken rules of corporate life.

Follow her on Instagram: @thatcareercoach_ Check out her courses on the website: https://thatcareercoach.net/ Watch on YouTube:@thatcareercoach_ About Mike Shannon Prior to Impruve, Mike co-founded and served as CEO of Packback, which pioneered "instructional AI" for the compliance-heavy Higher Education market with a product suite that scales the teaching impact of PhD college professor clientele. Packback's software earned the trust of the 600 largest institutions and was named one of TIME's Most Innovative Companies in Education. Throughout 12 years, Mike led it from a scrappy startup to $20M in ARR, 100+ employees, and a $50M+ all-cash acquisition by a leading private equity group — earning recognition from Inc. 500, Fast Company, Forbes 30 Under 30, and the Chicago Innovation Awards along the way. But his path wasn't linear. After shaking Mark Cuban's hand on ABC's Shark Tank at a young age, Mike clocked in for his next shift folding towels as a "ball boy" in the Chicago Bulls locker room; a fun tale that culminated in Mike's comedic entrepreneurship memoir, Sweaty Equity: A Ball Boy, A Billionaire, and the Bonkers Startup Tale You've Never Heard, which Mark Cuban described as "a wildly entertaining story!" Nowadays, Mike enjoys coaching Little League and spending time with his two young kids and wife. He co-hosts Momentum Mode, a podcast featuring private equity-backed CEOs, founders, & investors. He also serves on the board of national entrepreneurship education non-profit Future Founders, where he dedicates yearlong mentorship hours.- www.impruve.com/about | — | ||||||
| 5/25/26 | ![]() 140. Your Schedule Is Full But You're Getting Nothing Done — 3 Time Management Tips That Actually Work | I will be the first to admit I am pretty good at managing my time. But here is the part nobody wants to say out loud: you still cannot do everything. Every goal, every career move, every family priority, every business idea, and every "quick thing" on your calendar has a tradeoff. Productivity is not about cramming more into your day. It is about deciding what actually deserves your time — and having the structure and support to protect it. I believe real-time management starts with identity, not your calendar. Who are you at your core? What do you actually believe about your life, your career, and your priorities? Once you know that, you can build a week that reflects your real goals instead of letting your schedule become a dumping ground for everyone else's urgency. If you are a high achiever trying to balance work, family, career growth, and maybe one peaceful cup of coffee without multitasking through it, this one is for you. In this episode: Why real time management starts with identity, not a better calendar How to clarify your priorities before you plan a single thing Why ambitious people still cannot do everything — and what to do instead How to build an ideal weekly calendar that protects what actually matters Why your productivity has a ceiling without a support system and a village How to grow your career without burning down the rest of your life Play the Career Game On Your Terms: https://stan.store/thatcareercoach/p/3-months-of-group-coaching | — | ||||||
| 5/18/26 | ![]() 139. You Keep Canceling on Yourself and Calling It Productivity with Dr. Shannon Burge | I know what it feels like to have a "productive" day that somehow leaves you completely disconnected from yourself. You made every meeting, answered every email, handled every priority, and then realized your own health never made it onto the calendar. That is the part of ambition we do not talk about enough. Dr. Shannon Burge joined me on Secrets of the Career Game to talk about what happens when high-achieving women keep putting health, fitness, and self-care on the back burner until their body forces the conversation. Shannon spent 15 years in Fortune 500 executive leadership, earned her PhD, became an IFBB figure pro athlete, and now helps executives and professionals reclaim their wellness through mindset, nutrition, movement, and community. This conversation is for the women who are excellent at showing up for everyone else, but keep canceling on themselves. If you are trying to grow your career, lead well, avoid burnout, and still feel like a person outside of your job, this one will hit. Inside this episode • Why high-achieving women often put health last • How to treat your wellness like a real calendar priority • Why self-care does not mean you are less committed at work • The four wellness pillars Shannon uses with busy professionals • How discipline at work can translate into better health habits • Why fulfillment matters when you are redefining success Play the Career Game On Your Terms: https://stan.store/thatcareercoach/p/3-months-of-group-coaching Connect with Dr. Shannon Burge: Website: www.nodefeat.co Instagram: @shannon_burge Nonprofit: www.nodefeatwarrior.com | — | ||||||
| 5/4/26 | ![]() 137. Stop Succeeding. Start Unbecoming. | Lauren Kerr on Feminine Leadership | What if success isn't the problem — it's that you've outgrown it? Lauren Kerr introduces the concept of "unbecoming": shedding who you were to step into who you're becoming — without burning out in the process. Lauren Kerr is a bestselling author and high-performance coach who helps high-achieving women lead with clarity, recover from burnout, and redefine success — without blowing everything up to do it. If you've hit every goal and still feel like something's off, this is the episode that names what you've been feeling. What we get into: → What "unbecoming" actually means — and why it's not about starting over → The silent handbrake keeping ambitious women stuck in a version of success they've outgrown → Why the drive that built your career may now be working against you → What feminine leadership looks like in practice (empathy isn't a weakness) → The "feather or the truck" — why ignoring small intuitive nudges leads to bigger crises → Time audits, Parkinson's Law, and how to design a week that actually fits your life → Lauren's personal goal this year: just enjoying motherhood (and why that had to be a written goal) What's one "corporate game" rule you've learned the hard way? 🎯 Take the full Level Up Leadership Course: https://stan.store/thatcareercoach/p/get-started-with-my-play-the-corporate-game-course About Your Host: That Career Coach, Kendall Berg Kendall Berg is a career coach and creator, helping ambitious professionals master the unspoken rules of corporate life.

| 4/27/26 | ![]() 136. Most Candidates Waste the First 5 Minutes of Their Interview — Here's What to Do Instead | Hiring managers decide who they want within the first five minutes of an interview. If your answer to "tell me about yourself" sounds like everyone else's, you are already behind. In this episode, I break down how to lead with your personal brand, handle small talk strategically, and explain your experience in a way hiring managers actually remember — so you stop losing offers to people with the same qualifications.

| 4/20/26 | ![]() 135. You're Qualified But Still Getting Overlooked — Here's Why with Nicholette Hemingway | You're qualified. So why does it feel like no one notices? The problem usually isn't your experience. It's how you talk about it. In this episode, I sit down with career coach, Amazon best-selling author, and self-proclaimed "interview ologist" Nicolette Hemingway to unpack one of the most costly — and completely fixable — mistakes professionals make: assuming their work speaks for itself. Spoiler: it doesn't. And that belief alone could be what's standing between you and the job, promotion, or recognition you've already earned. Nicolette brings over 25 years of experience across every level of government, military service, and a career coaching practice built on one thing: helping talented people finally get seen. In this conversation, we go beyond generic interview advice and get into the real reasons qualified professionals get overlooked — and exactly what to do instead. What we cover: Why 98% of people fail interviews — and it has nothing to do with their resume How to tell your professional story in a way that makes hiring managers lean in The difference between listing tasks and communicating impact (and why it matters) Three questions that will completely change how you talk about your accomplishments What thank you emails actually signal to a hiring manager How to track your wins so you're never caught off guard in a review, interview, or promotion conversation Why staying in the background is quietly killing your career growth If you've ever walked out of an interview feeling like you didn't do yourself justice, or watched someone less qualified get the opportunity you deserved, this episode is for you.

How to Plan a Job Search Before You Burn Out and Make the Wrong Move | Too many people wait until work becomes unbearable before they start looking, and that is how smart professionals end up making desperate career moves. I have seen it happen over and over again. A toxic boss, a role that stopped fitting, a project that drains you, and suddenly you are trying to escape fast instead of thinking clearly. A strong job search starts long before you hit that breaking point.

The goal is not just to get out. The goal is to make a smarter move. This is for anyone who knows something at work is off, but does not want to panic quit and end up in the same situation somewhere else. If you want a more strategic job search, a clearer career direction, and a better way to evaluate your next opportunity, start here. Inside this episode How to know you are waiting too long to start a job search Why your personal brand matters before you apply anywhere How to define your passion statements and unique value Better interview questions to test company culture and job fit Why networking is the most important part of a job search How internal mobility can help you leave a bad role faster What's one "corporate game" rule you've learned the hard way? 🎯 Take the full Level Up Leadership Course: https://stan.store/thatcareercoach/p/get-started-with-my-play-the-corporate-game-course About Your Host: That Career Coach, Kendall Berg Kendall Berg is a career coach and creator, helping ambitious professionals master the unspoken rules of corporate life.

That's why I wanted to chat with fellow career coach Irina Posan. We've both seen too many smart, ambitious professionals treat interviews like a memory test instead of a strategy exercise. Irina knows this world well as a former HR director and the host of the Career Cravings podcast. In our conversation, we get into why overpreparing can actually hurt your interview performance, how candidates lose clarity under pressure, and what it really takes to stand out in a crowded job market. We also talk about the mindset shifts that matter before you ever apply, including how to get clear on the right role, how to communicate your value without sounding rehearsed, and why hard work alone is not enough if you want to get promoted. Irina shares her Top Five Story Method for interview preparation, plus a powerful reminder that career growth often comes down to visibility, advocacy, and relationships. If you are job searching, preparing for interviews, or trying to position yourself for your next promotion, this is the kind of career advice that can change the way you approach your next move. In this episode, we discuss: • Why do qualified candidates still fail interviews? • How can I stand out in a competitive job market? • What is the best way to prepare for interview questions? • Why does overpreparing make interviews worse? • How do promotions really happen at work?

| 3/23/26 | ![]() 132 Stop Applying to Everything | The Job Search Strategy That Actually Gets Interviews | Applying to more jobs is not the answer if your search has no strategy behind it. Too many smart professionals spend weeks applying, tweaking, and refreshing their LinkedIn profiles, yet still feel nothing is moving. In this episode, I talk about why a scattered job search creates more frustration, not better results, and what to focus on instead if you want to land the right role. I walk through the three parts of your search you can actually control: how many jobs you apply to, how tailored your resume is, and how intentional your networking outreach is. I also share why I want you to stop casting such a wide net, why LinkedIn Easy Apply can pull you off track, and how to build real name recognition with hiring managers and recruiters through thoughtful outreach. 🎯 What you'll learn: → Why applying to 8 quality jobs beats applying to 80 → How to use LinkedIn to get referrals (step-by-step) → Why LinkedIn Easy Apply may be hurting your chances → How to tailor your resume with job-specific keywords → What makes a company the right fit — beyond the salary Resources Mentioned LinkedIn outreach scripts: https://stan.store/thatcareercoach/p/get-my-networking-guide-now-p9qvc7eg My course with a job application tracker What's one "corporate game" rule you've learned the hard way? 🎯 Take the full Level Up Leadership Course: https://stan.store/thatcareercoach/p/get-started-with-my-play-the-corporate-game-course About Your Host: That Career Coach, Kendall Berg Kendall Berg is a career coach and creator, helping ambitious professionals master the unspoken rules of corporate life.

| 3/16/26 | ![]() 131. Everyone Looks Rich Online: The Spending Reset You Need | Lucy from The Lucy Space | Everyone looks rich online. New houses, European summers, luxury cars, and somehow no one ever mentions what it costs or whether it is intentionally helping you build the life you actually want. We work 40 hours a week, so of course we want to treat ourselves to nice dinners and beautiful trips. The difference is not whether we spend, but how we approach those decisions so we can build generational wealth and still create a rich life. I had a conversation with financial expert Lucy from The Lucy Space about what intentional spending actually looks like. Directing your money instead of letting it direct you. Using simple systems like a 30-day wait list, basic expense tracking, automated investing, and thoughtful travel planning. Not extreme budgeting. Not deprivation. Just clarity and control.

| 3/9/26 | ![]() 130. Invisible at Work? Your Personal Brand Is the Problem | Your personal brand is going to be the single most important investment that you make this year. Not your resume, not another certification, not even your performance review. Your personal brand is essentially your professional reputation personified. It shapes what senior leaders, peers, and stakeholders say about you when you are not in the room, and those conversations directly influence your opportunities long before you ever see them. I see high performers get stuck all the time because they assume hard work speaks for itself. It doesn't, at least not entirely. Performance absolutely matters, but your reputation shapes how people interpret that performance and whether they believe you can operate at the next level. In this episode, we discuss: • What is a personal brand at work, and why does it matter for promotion • How does personal brand influence performance reviews and nine-box ratings • Why do high performers get overlooked for leadership roles • How do you identify and communicate your unique value at work • How long does it take to rebrand yourself inside a company | — | ||||||

Before you make a career change, you need a clear destination. That's exactly why I wanted to interview Michelle Schaefer, bestselling author of Cultivating Career Growth, to talk about what actually creates a successful career transition. We walk through the five questions that create real career direction. We talk about the work that energizes you versus the work that drains you. We unpack what transferable skills really are, what real company culture actually looks like, and the non-negotiables every professional needs to identify in order to define long-term fulfillment. We also challenge some of the biggest job search myths circulating online. Sending hundreds of resumes without a strategy is not a plan. Online applications are only a small part of a strong job search strategy. And networking is not using people, even if it feels that way at first. We explain why it is the opposite. If you want referrals, influence, and real opportunities, you build relationships intentionally. If you are considering a career change, navigating a layoff, or questioning your current role, this conversation will help you move from emotional reaction to strategic career clarity. In this episode, we discuss: • What are the five questions to ask before making a career pivot? • Why does sending hundreds of resumes rarely lead to interviews? • How much of a job search should focus on networking? • How do you evaluate real company culture before accepting an offer? • What are career non-negotiables and how do they evolve over time? 🤝 Networking doesn't have to be awkward. Learn how to connect authentically, grow your influence, and turn conversations into opportunities.

| 2/9/26 | ![]() 126. Before You Quit Your Job Over a Bad Raise, Listen to This First | You didn't get the raise or promotion you wanted, and suddenly quitting feels like the only way to get unstuck. Kendall Berg explains why that reaction is exactly how people end up hurting their long-term careers. She breaks down the difference between staying too long because of empty promises and leaving too fast without using all the information available to you. Kendall talks about the trap so many professionals fall into when timelines stay vague. Promotions are always "coming soon." Bigger teams, more scope, more visibility are always just around the corner. Without a clear personal deadline, people stay stuck far longer than they should, waiting for a reward that never actually arrives. At the same time, she calls out the opposite mistake. Job hopping the moment a raise or promotion does not happen, without understanding context, budget cycles, or expectations, can be just as damaging. This episode walks through what to do after a disappointing raise or bonus. Kendall explains how to set a realistic timeline for yourself, how to evaluate whether new responsibilities actually change the equation, and how to decide when staying makes sense versus when it is time to move on. The goal is not blind patience or impulsive quitting. It is making a clear, grounded decision you can stand behind. In this episode, we discuss What should you do when you don't get the raise or promotion you expected? How vague promises like "soon" and "next cycle" keep people stuck too long Why quitting immediately after a missed raise can hurt your career How to set a personal deadline and hold yourself to it What new responsibilities actually matter when deciding whether to stay What's one "corporate game" rule you've learned the hard way? 🎯 Take the full Level Up Leadership Course: https://stan.store/thatcareercoach/p/get-started-with-my-play-the-corporate-game-course About Your Host: That Career Coach, Kendall Berg Kendall Berg is a career coach and creator, helping ambitious professionals master the unspoken rules of corporate life.
