This week's presenter: Hailey George

Topic: Career Confidence - How to Reset When Feeling Stuck

Most job-search advice tells you to apply more, network more, and stay consistent. But what happens when you're doing all of that and it's still not working?

This session is about that moment.

Instead of doubling down on the same approach, we'll talk about what it looks like to step back from what's not working and start creating movement in a way that actually works for you.

Participants will walk away with a clearer sense of how to get unstuck, a few practical ways to create momentum right now, and a different perspective on what it means to move forward even when the path ahead isn't clear.

This will be interactive and conversation-based, with a mix of small group discussion and reflection.
