About this episode

Helen Jonsen discusses how women can redefine their careers through a unique, non-linear approach inspired by the concept of a kaleidoscope.

From Host Helen Jonsen Welcome to This Kaleidoscope Career with thoughts about how women are doing it differently. As the colors of a kaleidoscope shift and tumble to create amazing and unique images, our skills, talents, experience and passions can create unique careers that are anything but linear. After four decades as a journalist, writer, strategic comms pro and professional speaker, I have learned a lot about how we communicate who we are and what we do. These are our stories and the tools to celebrate them. I have spent two years listening to women and researching the elements of this kaleidoscope career for my new book, This Kaleidoscope Career: Empowering Women to Build Unconventional Careers and Redefine Success, published by De Gruyter Brill to be released in Sept. 2026. In this episode i share the key elements, discuss superpowers and then, walk through the step-by-step approach to reframing your career as you see it through its twists and turns. Former guests remind us of important elements and why. @Christine Koh and @Joan Garry.
