Sarah Ellis and Helen Tupper founded the company Amazing If, which focuses on making work better for everyone, and wrote the number 1 Sunday Times Best-Selling business book, The Squiggly Career: Ditch the Ladder, Discover Opportunity, Design Your Career. In this episode I talk with Sarah and Helen about their own squiggly careers, and what it’s like to work together and write together as a business duo who are also best friends. They also share with us how they both manage their own mental health and confidence  gremlins at work. Plus, of course, we discuss what’s ultimately at the heart of their work both at Amazing If, and on an individual basis.

Plus, of course, we discuss what’s ultimately at the heart of her work.
