This week on Unstuck Career, we're switching things up—I'm stepping out of the comfort zone and talking with a guest who's right in the thick of it. Knives Monroe, a creative director, filmmaker, and longtime content creator, joins me for a raw, real-time exploration of what it means to face a career crossroads. Fresh off a recent layoff, Knives opens up about the challenge of leaving behind the “steady paycheck” (and the illusion of security), wrestling with self-doubt, and the weight of providing for a growing family when your sense of purpose is shifting.

You’ll hear Knives reveal why he’s tired of making other people rich, the old wiring that kept him working for others instead of building his own legacy, and how he's navigating the “too many options” paradox that hits so many creatives. We dig deep into letting go of outdated career patterns, embracing the discomfort of the unknown, and discovering how clarity often comes from simply taking the next step—even if it means getting unstuck by admitting you’re, well, stuck.

If you’ve ever felt pulled between freedom and responsibility or wondered how to monetize your true passion without selling out, this episode is packed with insights (and some tough love) to get you moving forward.
