Friend... Have you ever had a “career crush”? If you’re not familiar with the concept, don’t worry—I’ve got you covered! I made a video explaining what it means and how it can spark something powerful in your career journey. You can check it out right here. The idea of a career crush isn’t about having a strict playbook to follow. It’s about finding someone whose career you admire—someone who’s taken bold steps, embraced risks, and navigated both successes and failures.
