What do you do if youâve been out of work for a while, especially if your confidence is in freefall because you feel too old for the job market?
Sarah Glassey says she felt like she wasnât just in a pickle after being out of work for nine months, but âstuck in a whole vat of pickles in a factoryâ.

So, how did she turn things around?
Hereâs why you need to tune in
Sarah didnât just lean into adding social media skills to her CV to land herself a new job. She discovered a whole heap of tools â including one from a 1980s advert for a chocolate bar and another from the film Cocktail â that have given her back her sense of self-worth and helped her get promoted.

[06:50] Looking at things differently.
[10:31] What to do when you donât have all the skills for a job.

What have you done recently outside your role as a partner, parent or professional? A guilt-free activity that is purely about having fun and leaves you saying, âI canât believe I just did thatâ?
If youâre like most women, chances are you are prioritising everyone but yourself.
But author Eve Rodsky believes that carving out time to explore the gifts, talents and interests that make you you is a necessity if you want to live a happier, more fulfilled life.
But how do you do that, how do you communicate that to those around you, and how do you get over the guilt and shame?
Hereâs why you need to tune in
In this interview from the archives, Eve unpacks what a Unicorn Space is and describes her own failed attempt to find one using a Post-It note during the pandemic. She explores the communication styles of our CEO Joy and her husband Tim to demonstrate how you can have high cognition, low emotion conversations that let you implement boundaries and systems to ensure you have time for what Eve calls âdaily flourishingâ.
Hereâs what to listen out for:
[01:00] What is Unicorn Space about?
[04:04] What is a Unicorn Space?
[08:33] The âUnavailableâ Post-It note.
[10:33] There is a formula for thriving.
[14:14] What is your communication style?
[21:26] What is your partnerâs communication style?
[27:35] How do you communicate with yourself?
[35:09] Is Unicorn Space only for the privileged?
So, what will you do outside your role as a partner, parent or professional? Email us at [email protected] and let us know. âśď¸âśď¸âśď¸
