#2. Quality vs. Quantity

Colorful Futures Podcast

In this episode of the Colorful Futures Podcast, we’re tackling the whole “quality vs. quantity” debate when it comes to job applications. You know how, at the start of your job search, you’re all thoughtful, excited, and picky about what roles you want? But then, as time goes on, you start lowering the bar and applying to anything just to get a response? Yeah, we’ve all been there. 🥴

I’m here to remind you that it’s important to stay intentional and focused on what you need from a job, rather than just sending out as many applications as possible. I’ll share why taking breaks and doing things that bring you peace can help you avoid burnout. Oh, and that idea of finding a “perfect career” is a myth! What really matters is staying connected to your values and making sure you’re doing what feels right for you.

So, let’s keep it real—grab a coffee or your favorite snack and something to fidget with, get comfy, and join me as we chat about making your job search a little more meaningful and a lot less stressful. 💖
