You can't just rely on your organisation anymore. You can't just be loyal to one business. You have to take control of your career now.1,600 people at Atlassian. 4,000 at Block. 2,000 at WiseTech. And that's just what made the headlines.The layoffs are happening. The headlines are terrifying. And if you're in the middle of your career right now, you might be wondering: Am I next?But here's what nobody's telling you: it's not that AI is replacing humans, it's that professionals who refuse to adapt are being left behind.Welcome back to AI Ready Women, where Lou Compagnone, Director of Artificial Intelligence at Datacom, and I sit down to talk about what's actually happening in AI right now, and what it means for your career.This is a brutally honest conversation about the signals you need to be paying attention to, the mindset shifts you need to make, and how to stop reacting to disruption and start becoming the architect of your own future.____________✨Order The Bold Move✨📚 The Bold Move: https://www.theboldmovebook.com____________Connect with Me:🔵 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/georgiehubbard/🟪 Instagram: http://instagram.com/georgielhubbard♦️Website: https://www.georgiehubbard.com🌀Pivotr: https://www.pivotr.com____________Connect with Lou Compagnone:🔵 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/loucompagnone/____________In Today’s Episode:🟣 Why companies are cutting workers based on what AI could do, not what it's actually doing today, and what that means for you right now.🟣 The truth about AI redundancy washing: 60% of executives surveyed said they've reduced headcount in anticipation of AI's future impact, not its current capabilities.🟣 Why SaaS companies are at massive risk from AI disruption, and how everyday people are now building their own tools instead of paying for subscriptions.🟣 The Atlassian layoffs: what the announcement revealed about how companies are communicating these decisions, and why the lack of empathy is damaging their reputation.🟣 The anthropic report findings: which roles are most exposed to AI (computer programmers, customer service, data entry), and which are least exposed (cooks, mechanics, lifeguards).🟣 Why mid career professionals, especially older, female, educated, and higher paid workers, are most at risk, and what you need to do about it.🟣 The danger of vibe coding: why one developer described inheriting a vibe coded project as the new tech debt, and why companies still need skilled developers.🟣 Why your permanent job is not stable anymore, and why you need to start thinking like an entrepreneur and building multiple income streams.🟣 The exact strategies mid career women need to implement right now: activate your network, make your reputation your resume, and ensure your LinkedIn profile is set up for where you want to go, not just where you've been.🟣 For younger professionals: why now is the time to experiment, build your network from day one, develop your personal brand, and double down on human skills like communication and sales.🟣 Why you need to add AI fluency to stable growth areas like healthcare, law, education, sustainability, and trades, rather than just learning AI in isolation.🟣 The three income stream model: outcomes based pricing, recurring revenue through subscriptions or advisory work, and IP based passive income.____________Why This Episode Matters:The world is changing.

You've got the experience. You've got the skills. You've put in the years.But here's the uncomfortable truth: if you're not actively positioning yourself for the future, you're quietly becoming invisible.If you're a mid to senior career woman with 15+ years of experience, there's a high chance you're playing smaller than you think. And I say that with love.I've spent 12 years in recruitment, and I've seen time and time again how incredibly capable women quietly hold themselves back. Not because they lack talent, but because of habits that feel responsible but end up costing them promotions, influence, and long term leverage.Women make up nearly half of the workforce, but at senior leadership level, that number drops dramatically. Globally, women hold roughly a third of senior management roles. And at CEO level? Under 10% in many markets.Here's what's keeping me up at night: men are applying for promotions when they meet around 60% of the criteria. Women wait until they meet all of it. And that gap compounds over time.Then you add AI into the mix. The World Economic Forum projects that millions of roles will be reshaped by automation in the next few years, and many of the most AI exposed roles are functions where women are heavily represented.This isn't about confidence. It's about making sure that as the market shifts, and it is shifting fast, you are not accidentally falling behind because of habits that once felt safe.The women who rise in the next era won't just be the hardest working. They'll be the most strategic. And the gap between strategic and reactive widens quickly.____________🟣 Want to Work With Me?The 60 Day Bold Move Career Accelerator: https://www.georgiehubbard.com/bold-moves____________✨Grab the Book📚 The Bold Move: https://www.theboldmovebook.com____________Connect with Me:🔵 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/georgiehubbard/🟪 Instagram: http://instagram.com/georgielhubbard♦️Website: https://www.georgiehubbard.com🌀Pivotr: https://www.pivotr.com____________What You'll Discover:🟣 Mistake #1: Waiting Until You're 100% Ready🟣 Mistake #2: Shrinking Your Impact With Language🟣 Mistake #3: Assuming Your Work Will Speak for Itself 🟣 Mistake #4: Letting Your Network Die🟣 The exact language shifts you need to make to start owning your impact and building credibility at senior level.🟣 Why progression at senior level isn't about doing more, it's about making your impact well known.🟣 How to build leverage outside of your organisation so you're not vulnerable to internal politics, restructures, or budget cuts.____________Your Next Step:If you recognised yourself in one of these mistakes, don't ignore it.

Only 22% of AI roles are held by women. Only 18% of AI researchers are women. Only 14% of senior executive roles in AI are held by women.If women aren't in the room, we're not shaping the future.

40% of Block's workforce. Gone. Just like that.This isn't a headline from the future. This happened this week. And the reason? AI.In the same week, Wise Tech Global laid off 2000 staff, and if you think this is isolated, you're not paying attention. This is the signal. This is the wake-up call. And if you're still playing by the old rules, sending generic CVs, waiting to be chosen, relying on outdated strategies, you will get left behind.But here's the truth: AI doesn't have to take your job.

You've put in the years.But here's the uncomfortable truth: if you're not actively positioning yourself for the future, you're quietly becoming invisible.The world of work is changing faster than most professionals realise.

Tech companies are slashing roles left and right. Job descriptions are changing every two weeks.

You mapped your time. You identified your skills. You built your support system.But here's what nobody tells you: the moment you commit to change, everything inside you will fight to pull you back.The doubt will get louder. The fear will feel heavier. And on the hardest days, it's going to be so easy to quit. To retreat back into the comfort of who you used to be. To fall back into the old habits, the old beliefs, the safe job that brings no joy but feels familiar.Welcome to the Bonus Week of The Bold Move Challenge, where we're talking about the part of transformation nobody wants to discuss: the messy middle. The bold gap. The space between where you are and where you want to be. And why this is exactly where resilience is built.____________✨Order The Bold Move✨📚 The Bold Move: https://www.theboldmovebook.com____________Connect with Me:🔵 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/georgiehubbard/🟪 Instagram: http://instagram.com/georgielhubbard♦️Website: https://www.georgiehubbard.com🌀Pivotr: https://www.pivotr.com____________What You'll Discover🟣 The Bold Gap: What happens in the space between where you are and where you want to be, and why most people give up right before the breakthrough.🟣 You're Going to Come Up Against Yourself: Every time you step outside your comfort zone, doubt and fear will show up. This isn't a sign you're failing. It's a sign you're growing.🟣 Why Change Feels So Hard: If change was easy, everyone would be living their dream life. But it's not. And that's exactly why it's worth it.🟣 The Comfort Zone Trap: How easy it is to fall back into old habits, old beliefs, and old versions of yourself when the path forward feels uncertain.🟣 The Regret Test: Would you regret not doing this? Would you look back in a year, five years, ten years and wish you'd kept going? Use this question to guide your decisions.🟣 Resilience is Built in the Struggle: It's in those moments when you want to quit—when you choose to take one more step—that your strength and character are forged.🟣 One Percent Better: You don't have to be perfect. You just have to be one percent better than you were yesterday. One more rep. One more day. One more step forward.🟣 Check In With Yourself: Are you falling back into old patterns? Are you giving your time and energy to things that don't matter? Keep reconnecting to your why.🟣 The Messy Middle is Where Growth Lives: On the other side of discomfort is the person you're working to become. Don't turn back now.____________Why This Episode Matters:I couldn't end this challenge without preparing you for what's coming. Because the truth is, any time you go for more, more freedom, more impact, more confidence, more joy—you're going to face resistance. Internal resistance. Doubt. Fear. Imposter syndrome. All of it.And if you're not prepared for that, it's so easy to quit. To convince yourself it's too hard. To fall back into what feels safe.But I'm asking you not to do that. Because the person you're becoming on the other side of this discomfort is worth fighting for. And the life you're building is worth the struggle.____________Your Bonus Week Challenge:✨ Acknowledge the messy middle: Understand that change is hard. Expect the doubt. Expect the fear. And keep going anyway.✨ Reconnect to your why: When doubt gets loud, go back to your why. Why did you start this? What are you working towards? Who are you becoming?✨ Check in with yourself: Are you falling back into old habits? Are you giving your time and energy to the right things? Keep course-correcting.✨ Take one more step: You don't have to have it all figured out. You just have to take one more step. One percent better than yesterday.✨ Build your resilience muscle: This is where your strength is built. In the struggle. In the discomfort. In the moments when you choose to keep going.____________Join the Movement:If you've been part of this challenge, I want to hear from you. What's been your biggest takeaway?

You mapped your time. You identified your skills. You committed to the identity shift.But you can't make bold moves alone. You were never meant to.Success isn't just about what you know or what you do. It's about who's in your corner when doubt gets loud. It's about who lifts you up when you're questioning everything. It's about who reminds you of your worth when you've forgotten it yourself.Welcome to Week 4 of The Bold Move Challenge, where we're getting intentional about the people we surround ourselves with, and building a support system that actually supports your boldest moves.____________✨Order The Bold Move✨📚 The Bold Move: https://www.theboldmovebook.com____________Connect with Me:🔵 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/georgiehubbard/🟪 Instagram: http://instagram.com/georgielhubbard♦️Website: https://www.georgiehubbard.com🌀Pivotr: https://www.pivotr.com____________What You'll Discover in Week 4:🟣 The Power of Your Inner Circle: Why the people you surround yourself with will either accelerate your growth or keep you stuck, and how to identify who's who.🟣 You Can't Do This Alone: We're not meant to sit in isolation. Human connection is what will separate success from struggle as the world becomes more digital and AI-driven.🟣 Who Lifts You Up?: I walk you through how to identify the people in your life who energise you, inspire you, and make you feel more confident, and how to spend more intentional time with them.🟣 The Gratitude Gap: Who are you taking for granted? Who's been quietly cheering you on that you haven't acknowledged or appreciated? This week is about showing up for the people who show up for you.🟣 Don't Wait Until You Need Them: Most people only engage their network when they're desperate. I'm teaching you how to build genuine relationships before you need them.🟣 Beyond Your Immediate Circle: Your support system isn't just the people you can call. It's the podcasters, authors, coaches, and influencers who inspire you from a distance. Who are they? And how can you surround yourself with their energy?🟣 Be a Giver, Not Just a Taker: You have value to bring. How can you support the people in your corner? How can you lift them up the way they lift you? This is about reciprocity, not just networking.🟣 Build Your Network with Intention: If you don't have a strong support system right now, that's okay. I share exactly how to start building one—through networking events, online communities, and putting yourself in rooms with like-minded people.🟣 The Difference Between Giving Up and Keeping Going: When doubt gets loud, your support system is what keeps you moving forward.

Who inspires you? Make a list of your cheerleaders.✨ Reach out to someone you've been taking for granted: Send a message. Make a call. Show gratitude. Let them know you appreciate them.✨ Identify who's outside your immediate circle: Who are the podcasters, authors, coaches, or influencers who inspire you? Follow them. Listen to them. Read their work. Surround yourself with their energy.✨ Think about how you can give back: What value can you bring to your network? How can you support the people who support you? Relationships are a two-way street.✨ If your network is small, start building it: Join a community. Attend a networking event. Put yourself in rooms with like-minded people. Your support system won't build itself.____________Join the Movement:If you're committing to this week's challenge, I want to hear from you.
