"Side Quest Queen": Unemployment Gave Her Freedom She Never Had | Tia Wynn

Tia Wynn joins Drew for Episode 13. After 3+ years as a Client Onboarding Specialist in supply chain and logistics, Tia has been job searching for seven months and counting. She opens up about the brutal reality: getting let go from her last job the day before her birthday. Finding unexpected freedom on a solo trip to Japan while unemployed, four rounds of interviews and an 8-hour assessment project only to get ghosted on feedback. This episode covers the mental toll of job searching, why she went from grading her job searching performance a C to an A, her three wishes for fixing the hiring process, and why she finally reached out to a stranger on LinkedIn this morning ... and why it worked. 📌 Connect with Tia on LinkedIn and show her some love. -   / tianawynn   🎙️ Know someone who should be on the show?
