On this week's Career Therapy Podcast (e.77), we welcome Ann Marie Carrothers to the conversation.
Ann Marie is a content strategist, digital educator, and founder of Public Privates, a project dedicated to helping people find love online safely by providing guidance on algorithms, AI facial recognition, and digital privacy + security.
In today’s episode we talk about the overlap between online dating and the job search, the difference between authenticity and marketing yourself to attract a job (or potential date), and how ideas of dream jobs and soul mates can actually hurt our chances of building a life we love.
