Description

The "Career Ladder" isn't broken. You’re just climbing it wrong.


For decades, the advice was static: Get the degree, wait your turn, get the promotion. But in 2025, with entry-level roles down 29% and AI compressing the middle management layer, "waiting your turn" is a failed strategy.


In this episode, I sit down with Lee Bofkin (Co-Founder & CEO of Global Street Art) to discuss what actually works. When the external system is chaotic, your internal habits are the only thing you can control.


We break down why you don't need more years on your CV, but rather the ability to solve problems without a playbook, focus deeply amidst the noise, and unlearn/relearn skills continually.
