Episode 56 is here, and Russ Broomell and Maurice Hofmann are joined by someone who knows how to make sense of today’s noisy career jungle. Meet Timothy T., the driving force behind properpilots.org, where careers aren’t just managed, they’re flown with purpose.
This episode is equal parts wisdom and wit. Timothy reveals why success isn’t about throwing everything at the wall and hoping something sticks. It’s about sending the right signals that cut through the clutter. He shares how luck isn’t really luck at all, but a skill you can practice by showing generosity, following up in meaningful ways, and being findable for the right reasons.
Of course, AI makes an appearance too. Timothy doesn’t shy away from where it helps, freeing up time for real conversations, but he also points out where it makes us all sound like bland clones. And when the talk turns to interviews, things get delightfully real. Forget the polished theater - chemistry, honesty, and showing up as your actual self-win every time.
At the heart of it all is a theme that sounds simple but feels revolutionary: human decency. From closing the loop with candidates to taking an extra moment to treat people with respect, Timothy makes the case that careers- and lives - are built on relationships, not transactions.
Tune in for a conversation that’s funny, refreshing, and surprisingly practical. You’ll walk away rethinking how you approach work, opportunity, and maybe even your inbox. And if you want to see Timothy’s ideas in action, head over to properpilots.org, because flying blind was never the plan.
