The first guest on Why Is Nobody Talking About This? is Lane Clark, a CEO’s best friend and right-hand woman to high-performing leaders. Kim and Lane dive right into the delicate and confusing balance between ambition and contentment. As someone intimately familiar with Kim’s work and deepest professional insecurities (fun!), Lane gets honest about what happens when you have to define success as something beyond money and why it will likely always feel like swimming upstream if you’re choose your own path over climbing the traditional ladder.
