#185: Desperation is Costing You Job Offers (Here's What to Do Instead)
You can say all the “right” answers in an interview…
And still not get the job.
Why?
Because it’s not just about what you say.
It’s about how you show up.
In this episode, we’re talking about:
Why it’s normal to feel desperate during the job search
How that energy shows up in your interview (even if you don’t realize it)
How hiring teams actually perceive it
The mindset shift from “please pick me” → “here’s what I offer”
How to show up confident, grounded, and aligned
This is the episode that will change how you walk into your next interview.
