    LinkedIn in job search has become one of the most important tools for executives and professionals. But let's be honest, so many people feel overwhelmed by networking online or fixing up their profile. Putting yourself out there in a visible way can feel scary, especially when you really need a job.

    In this episode, you will learn how to use LinkedIn in job search with strategy and real confidence. Host and CEO Porschia sits down with guest Christina Cella for a warm, helpful conversation. They share how LinkedIn can help you build visibility, connect with the right people, and find opportunities that never get posted publicly.

    They also talk about how to make your profile shine, reach out to people connected to roles you want, and shift the way you think about rejection during your job search. The conversation includes practical ways to use AI for research, targeting companies, prepping for interviews, and coming up with outreach ideas. All while still keeping your own unique voice.

  • 139. Common Career Advice to Ignore
    Apr 16 2026

    We hear career advice everywhere, but not all of it actually helps you. Some tips sound smart, safe, and proven by others. But in this episode, host Porschia gently challenges that. She explains why following the wrong guidance can quietly pull you away from the career you truly want.

    Porschia asks you to consider an honest question. What if the most repeated advice is exactly what you need to question? She walks through 5 career myths that so many professionals still believe. Things like hustle culture, promotion timelines, and the pressure to start a business. This episode reminds you that career success is personal. There is no one size that fits everyone.

    She also explains why these 5 pieces of career advice can be so misleading. Some create burnout without you even realizing it. Few push people into expensive decisions that don't pay off. Some make you feel behind when you are actually growing in the right direction. The real gift of this episode is not just hearing the myths, it’s learning how to think about your own career more clearly.

    Porschia brings a thoughtful, grounded perspective from her own work coaching real people through tough career decisions. She points you toward a better approach, one built on strategy and self-awareness. Another that helps you choose what truly fits your strengths, your values, and your long term goals.
