Ep 250: The problem with hearing “AI” and assuming your career is over
Episode 250
Tuesday, 31 March, 2026
This week, we’re talking about what’s really going on in the AI layoff era, and why the way you interpret that moment matters almost as much as the layoff itself. If all you hear is “a robot replaced me,” it’s easy to spiral, panic pivot, and start solving the wrong problem. But if you know how to read the room, you can make smarter decisions about your career, your money, and where to go from here. Losing a job is already disruptive enough. The last thing you need is to turn it into a full-blown crisis about your worth.
