The last day of #SXSW was yesterday, and what an unforgettable journey it's been! For our grand finale question, we asked: "What has been the biggest regret of your career?"
Before we wrap up, don't forget to catch up on previous seasons of the Career Safari podcast available on any podcast app. And guess what? Season 3 is on the horizon, launching this June!

We're still hitting the streets and diving into career talks with the amazing women! Today's question: "What's one thing you would delete from your job?"

Career Safari is taking #sxsw2024! We're hitting the streets, chatting up the incredible women at SXSW, and asking career questions.
Day 1's Topic: What's the WORST career advice you've ever been given?
Their Responses:
🚩 "Know your place in the room" (yeah, right, we're speaking up!)
🚩 "Stick with a job for at least a year" (because life is too short for boring jobs!)
🚩"Go to business school; don't study the arts" (both are important to society)
🚩"Say no to marriage" (Healthy partnerships are powerful catalysts)
🚩"Wait your turn" (Big NOPE, we're taking our turn!)
Major takeaway: Forge your own path!
