MILLENNIAL INNOVATORS PODCAST KAT LISCIANI, Millennovation® Media @millennovator In this episode of the millennial innovators podcast S2 #underdogsandunforgettables we meet our second underdog of the season, Allan Stormon. Allan is a content marketer from down under (Aka—Oz / Australia) living and working in New York City. He moved to America on a whim and quickly made the connections he needed to land a great tech marketing job. Now, three years later, Allan finds himself back at square one as he learns his role at the company has been eliminated. While this news would be considered less than ideal under most circumstances, Allan's job search dilemma is made all the more urgent and inconvenient by his immigrant status. With a 60-day deadline looming down his neck, Allan is tasked with the challenge of both finding a job he actually wants to work in while also securing an employer who is willing to sponsor his visa. Join Allan and Kat as they sit down to help you reframe the job search and application process. Learn from Allan as he shares his personal approach to solving unfavorable career challenges, and hear exactly what he's doing this time to outshine his, seemingly, more qualified competition. —— Season 2 #underdogsandunforgettables is all about thriving in the tension between where you find yourself, right now, and where you want to be. In your career, life, relationships, etc. Throughout this season we join forces with people on both sides of the mountain top. 1) The Underdogs: who are currently at point A and desperately wish to be at point B but are at a loss for where to start or how to get there. 2) The Unforgettables: we all have them, those people we look up to as having already made their mark, forged their own path, and achieved the otherwise unachievable. Join Kat as she comes alongside four Underdogs who are knee deep in the journey of figuring out who they are, where and what they're called to, and how they're going to make their dream a reality. One episode at a time we'll reveal their stories of struggle and breakthrough, as we accompany each person in the journey to reinvent themselves, change careers, and forge a new path forward despite the different mountains (or challenges) in their way. Every other episode we'll sit down for a conversation with one of our Unforgettables, who are friends of the pod and personal heroes to many of our underdogs. to lear how they harnessed their strengths and weaknesses to leverage everything at their disposal to create favor in the face of opposition, and opportunity where there was none. It might not be your time to shine, but it's always your time to thrive.
