Description After a hard year, Amy Green went looking for a different kind of work, and a CEO told her she was too skilled to apply for the role. In this solo episode, she shares what that conversation showed her about intimate, bespoke work in a world built for scale, and why deciding what comes next can start with the life we want to live. It is also Amy's announcement that she is not going anywhere, with three free masterclasses to start 2027.

In this episode:

You'll explore why saying we should be more open and actually being open are two very different things.

• You'll hear what happened when Amy explored hybrid, in-house and portfolio work, and what a CEO said when she asked about a role.

• You'll explore why bespoke, relationship-led work rarely fits a program designed to be repeated at scale.

• You'll hear why decisions about work can start with the life we want to live rather than the job we hold.

• You'll find out what is coming in 2027, beginning with three free masterclasses.
