Episode 2: How Shifting Our Lens on Uncertainty and Experiments Can Help Us Move Forward When We're Stuck

Welcome back to the podcast!

In this episode, we talk about: 

• Why uncertainty can keep us stuck and stop us from moving forward, even towards something we really want
• How to shift that "stuck-ness" by changing our lens on what uncertainty represents
• How applying an experiment framework to our career decisions, both past and current, can help contextualize our experiences, inform what we want now, and provide permission to try something new
• Adapting a potential scientist "superpower" of intimate familiarity with the experimental process and applying it to our careers (vs. viewing results as a measure of our personal success or worth - we all know that experiments failing sometimes is just a part of science!)
• Using a series of mini-experiments to make big picture decisions more approachable
• How this podcast is an example of incorporating experimentation into my own journey
