Episodes

How to Stop One Bad Manager From Defining How You See Yourself at Work
SummaryIn this episode, Cyndi Bennett gets personal. She shares what it was like to leave a difficult manager behind and still spend hours reviewing work before sending it to a new one who never once suggested anything was wrong. This episode is about what happens when one relationship, one loud, repeated, authoritative voice, becomes the lens you view every workplace interaction through afterward

How To Know Who You Can Actually Trust At Work
SummaryIn this episode, Cyndi Bennett tackles something most networking advice completely skips over: what it actually looks like to identify safe people at work when the broader culture does not feel safe to begin with. The standard advice about building relationships and getting face time assumes trust is the default setting. For anyone who has come out of a workplace where it was not, that advi

How To Write A Resume That Reflects Your Real Value After A Difficult Exit
SummaryIn this episode, Cyndi Bennett gets practical. No deep processing today, just the specific thinking that goes into building a resume when the job you are describing stopped being the job you agreed to take. Most resume advice assumes a clean, stable role with a clean exit. This episode is for everyone whose role shifted underneath them, whose responsibilities changed without support, or who

How To Make Big Career Moves When You're Second-Guessing Everything
SummaryIn this episode, Cyndi Bennett speaks to everyone who has ever stood in front of a real opportunity and had absolutely no idea what to do with what they were feeling.

Why You Are More Qualified To Lead Than Your Resume Shows
SummaryIn this episode, Cyndi Bennett names something most leadership development never teaches: the specific, functional capacities that come from navigating hard things professionally, not despite your history, but because of it.

How To Ask For What You're Worth When You've Been Taught To Be Grateful Just to Have a Job
SummaryIn this episode, Cyndi Bennett digs into the very specific kind of silence that shows up right before you ask for more money. The moment you have done the research, rehearsed the words, and then something tightens and a voice says, “Who do you think you are?” This is an honest exploration of where that voice comes from, what is happening physiologically in those moments, and how to build th

How To Stay Professionally Visible When You Want to Disappear
SummaryIn this episode, Cyndi Bennett talks about something she sees constantly: talented, capable people doing genuinely good work who are still being passed over, overlooked, and left out of conversations where they belong. The reason, more often than not, comes back to visibility. Or more specifically, to the ways that being seen feels like a threat. This episode is an honest look at why the pu

How to Job Search When Burnout Has Stalled Your Momentum
SummaryIn this episode, Cyndi Bennett speaks directly to the people who know they need to do something about their job situation and yet cannot seem to make themselves start. This is not an episode about productivity hacks or applying to more jobs. It is an honest look at what is actually happening when burnout meets a job search, why the standard advice feels almost absurd when you are in it, and

What To Say When Your Career History Is Messy
SummaryIn this episode, Cyndi Bennett tackles something that most career advice completely misses: what happens in your body when an interviewer asks you to explain a gap, a difficult departure, or a stretch of time you are still making sense of. This is not an episode about polishing your talking points. It is an honest, practical conversation about why narrating a complicated career history is g

Power Was Never Meant to Be Used This Way
SummaryIn this solo episode, Cyndi Bennett takes on a topic she has been sitting with for a while: power, and what happens when someone gets it and uses it the wrong way. This is not a political episode or a narcissism episode.
