50. 🎉 Episode 50! The ultimate guide to getting your boss excited about your job share.

Welcome to our 50th episode! I'm so grateful you're here and would love your help reaching 50 reviews on Apple Podcasts—we're so close!

Now, let's tackle the big question that stops most people in their tracks: "How do I get my boss to approve a job share?"

Here's what I know after years of helping people navigate this conversation: most bosses don't reject job sharing because it won't work—they're skeptical because they've never heard of it and don't understand the massive benefits it brings to their team and bottom line.

Today, I'm sharing the exact framework that turns skeptical managers into job share champions: the 3 P's that make approval almost inevitable.

In this milestone episode, you'll discover:

• Why your boss's biggest concerns are actually job sharing's greatest strengths
• The mindset shift that changes everything about how you approach this conversation
• My "birds and bees" approach to introducing job sharing to your manager
• The 3 P's required for job share approval (Preparation, Proposal, Pitch)
• 4 key questions to research before presenting your job share
• The top 3 elements every job share proposal should include
• How to make the business case that benefits your employer

Remember: Even the most risk-averse boss can't help but be intrigued by an innovative practice that stamps out burnout and turnover while producing better results with two talents in one role.

Your job share is waiting to transform your life—and this episode gives you everything you need to make it happen. 🙌🙌
