What do you do when the safe path stops being safe?

Jess Lane spent 20 years building iconic brands like Jim Beam, Visa, Miller, and Porsche. She helped a fintech company reach billion-dollar unicorn status. That same year, she was laid off with 150 other people, and then applied to 496 jobs.

That low point became her turning point.

In this episode, Jess joins Christine to share how she combined two decades of go-to-market experience with a master's in psychology to build The Full Cup Co, a career design company that helps people choose themselves and design what comes next.

Jess shares her philosophy on why your unique blueprint is the best way to stand out in a world that sounds more and more like AI, how self-determination theory explains what actually keeps you motivated for the long haul, and why real estate agents are uniquely positioned to solve one of the biggest human problems out there: loneliness.

If you have ever felt stuck, boxed in by who you were "supposed" to be, or unsure how to build something durable enough to weather a slow year, this one is for you.
