Disrupt Yourself: Why Your Next Career Move Should Scare You a Little

Career transitions are rarely neat. They're messy, they're scary, and they often come with a hefty dose of uncertainty. But, as Angela Cheng-Cimini reminded us in this week’s episode of Redefining Work, they’re also essential if we want to grow, rediscover purpose, and live a life of intention. Angela, a soon-to-be former CHRO at Harvard Business Review, joined me for a candid conversation about transitions—not just in work, but in life.  She shared her journey of stepping away from a high-profile role to prioritize what really matters. Along the way, we dove into burnout, the importance of self-disruption, and why sometimes the bravest thing you can do is simply pause.
