    I've never faced this much UNCERTAINTY in all my adult life - Episode 4 with Hattie Camp

    In this episode, I sit down with Hattie Camp for a chat that covers, well, quite a lot. We get into the messy reality of navigating careers when no one really tells you what's out there, why change — as uncomfortable as it is — might just be the best thing for you, and what it was like travelling during a pandemic (yes, she did it). We also get into the fun stuff: how opposites really do attract, the chaos of accents, and why genAI is quietly making it easier for all of us to just... create things. A really enjoyable conversation with a guest who's got a lot to say.
