Description

It’s one thing to decide to move on from a job or career, but what happens when you’re at the top of your game and your job just... evaporates? 

After many years as a television journalist, Melissa Chan-Green was co-hosting The AM Show on Three when Warner Bros. Discovery announced it was closing Newshub and its associated shows.  

So how do you navigate the financial side of redundancy, and then find your feet again in a shrinking industry? 

Melissa Chan-Green joins Nadine this week on The Prosperity Project to talk about her approach to money in the media industry, how redundancy allowed her to redefine herself, and how she went about finding a new purpose. 

You can find School Shorts - Melissa's new podcast for parents - wherever your get your podcasts.
