What's Next? With Lacey
Maybe you find yourself wondering "what career is right for me?" or "what does this job actually do?" or "how do I get my start in this industry?"
Informational interviews are a valuable resource in answering all your career questions. They help you learn about different industries to find your dream job or maybe just provide you with the proper tools to find your next job. But sourcing people to talk to is a hard task; not everyone is willing to chat and sometimes you just don't even know where to start.
What's Next? With Lacey has all those informational interviews at your fingertips. Lacey interviews fellow young professionals from a wide range of different industries about their careers so far. She discusses everything from how they got their first job to what drew them to their current field but most importantly she gets their insights and advice to help her listeners figure out What's Next.

This week Lacey sits down with Seb, who is in his final semester of grad school, earning a dual degree in Business and International & Public Affairs.

Beyond academics, they discuss the challenges of the job hunt, what truly makes a career fulfilling, and the big-picture decisions that shape a professional path. Whether you're considering grad school, navigating your own career transition, or just love hearing about ambitious career journeys, this episode is packed with insight. There really is a treat for everyone!
