About

If work feels shaky right now:

If you’re being overlooked for a promotion or raise, 

If you’re changing jobs or looking for a job,

If you’ve been feeling uneasy about changes in tech and AI,

If the feeling at work is “anything could happen…” 

This episode is for you.

The world is moving fast, companies are shifting, and a lot of people are sitting back and hoping they don’t get hit. 

Carla Harris is here to make sure you’re not one of them.

Carla is one of the most respected leaders on Wall Street. She’s spent 35 years in the rooms where decisions get made: who gets promoted, who gets picked, who gets overlooked, and why. 

The world is changing fast. The strategies that worked in 2025 will not work in 2026.

When the world changes, you must change with it, or as our expert will caution you – you’ll “become a fossil.”

She will tell you exactly which skills, what mindset, and what actions you need to take in 2026 to succeed at work so you can position yourself so you’re not waiting for someone else to “notice” your potential.

In this conversation, you will learn:

-The 2 things holding women back at any stage in their career and how to overcome them

-How to stand out at work in the age of AI and nonstop change

-How to take control of your career in midlife (It’s easier than you think)

-The one relationship that gets you promoted (and it’s not always your boss)

-What to do when you’re exhausted but still need to show up and perform

-How to finally stop self-doubt (without any weird tricks or hacks)

-How to evolve your career without starting from scratch

-How to prepare for your annual review so you get what you want

-Why you can be great at your job and still get overlooked (and what to do about it)

-How to figure out what you want next using Carla’s “blank sheet” method

-How to build a timeline to escape a toxic job without blowing up your life

You’ll also hear Carla coach real listeners through layoffs, rebuilding confidence, and returning to work after years at home.

Carla calls this next chapter Me 3.0. This is the phase where you stop living by someone else’s report card and start designing a career (and life) you want to wake up for.

Today, she’s giving you the career coaching session of a lifetime – one that no amount of money could buy, because she doesn’t offer one on one sessions.

She says, this is not the moment to sit back – it’s time to put your foot on the gas.

And if you use what Carla teaches you in this episode, you won’t just feel more confident.

You’ll be positioned to win.
