Career reinvention isn't about retreat — it's about betting on yourself. In this episode of Finding Better, I sit down with Alex Husner and Annie Holcombe, co-hosts of the award-winning Alex and Annie Podcast, to talk about leaving the corporate world, navigating career transition in the age of AI, and building a life you actually love.

We dig into what it really takes to reinvent your career: shifting from a scarcity mindset to an abundance mindset, overcoming imposter syndrome, the real power of relationships and personal branding, and how a "just-for-fun" podcast became the catalyst that changed both their careers, businesses, and lives.

If you're thinking about leaving your 9-to-5, navigating a career pivot, starting your own business, or just need a serious mindset shift — this conversation is for you. Hit subscribe, drop a comment, and share this with someone who needs to hear it today.

In 1999, Pam Warren survived the Paddington train crash — Britain's worst rail disaster of the 20th century — and became known as "The Lady in the Mask."

In this episode of Finding Better, I sit down with Pam to talk about surviving unimaginable tragedy, rebuilding her identity after trauma, and how she took on the UK government to make British rail one of the safest in Europe.

We talk about: ✅ Surviving the 1999 Paddington train crash and fireball ✅ Life as "The Woman in the Mask" — 2 years in a Perspex face mask ✅ Rebuilding identity, purpose, and confidence after tragedy ✅ Why life isn't fair — and why that's not the end of your story ✅ How an "ordinary woman" took on the government and won ✅ Finding better when life changes overnight ✅ Designing Your Life When All Goes Wrong

If you're navigating unexpected change, loss, divorce, job loss, illness, or any kind of personal tragedy, Pam's story is proof that no matter how bad things get — finding better is always an option.

Is AI going to replace you? I used to hear that question every single day — and after 40 years in technology, from IBM in 1984 through the rise of the internet, e-commerce, and now artificial intelligence, I can tell you the answer is not what you think.

AI isn't replacing you. It's revealing you.

In this episode of Finding Better, I break down the 5 most powerful lessons from our recent episodes — the ones I truly believe can change your life if you let them in.

Here's what we cover:

🔹 The illusion of connection — why we've never been more connected yet more lonely, and what "pseudo connections" are doing to our mental health and relationships 🔹 AI as a mirror — how artificial intelligence is exposing what's truly valuable about you (and it's not your tasks or your data) 🔹 The success trap — why so many high achievers are succeeding at the wrong things, and how to define success on your own terms before it's too late 🔹 Your human edge — why empathy, emotional intelligence, presence, and deep human connection are becoming the most valuable skills in the age of automation 🔹 The renaissance of heart — how the AI revolution is pushing us toward a revival of our humanity, and why that's the greatest opportunity of our lifetime

I've spent decades watching technology get smarter and smarter — and in the process, I've watched a lot of people forget their heart. This episode is about coming back to it.

If you're asking "will AI take my job," "how do I find purpose in the age of AI," or "how do I stop feeling so disconnected," this conversation is for you.
