WorkSmart — A career that fits your life

The way you work can change as your life changes.

Ola is developing WorkSmart as a space to explore work, ambition and the life around them. The program’s content, format and schedule are still being shaped.

Why this question matters

When an old way of working no longer fits

A job that once made sense can begin to feel out of step with what you want in a new season of life. That does not mean you need to make a rushed decision.

WorkSmart starts with practical questions: what am I working toward, what has changed, and what do I want to keep?

“You might still want to grow, while needing a new definition of growth.”

A perspective from Ola’s career

Ola has worked across television, communications, creative work and technology. Moving between these settings has prompted her to revisit how she wants to work.

WorkSmart is still taking shape from those observations. Ola will share more when the content is ready.
