At Careerlist, we know a thing or two about life pivots—whether it's a person navigating a new role or a company shifting direction. That’s why it was such an honor to have the one & only Emily Tisch Sussman host of the She Pivots podcast, join us for a fireside chat on life transitions. Emily brought incredible insights into how we navigate change, the blurred lines between our personal and professional journeys, and how embracing pivots can lead to meaningful transformations. Huge thank you to Emily and Ashley for leading the discussion and to everyone who joined!
