Julie Knox's Puzzling Pleasures

Описание: Hello and welcome to the Human Behind the Career Brand podcast. Research is indicating that humans more than ever are craving human connection across both professional and consumer contexts. Despite – and maybe even because of – the onslaught of AI and other digital technologies.



My primary mission with this podcast is to inspire each of us to value and appreciate our multifaceted strengths, experiences and offerings. Both as professionals and as human beings. And to highlight that human stories and connections will always matter, both personally and professionally.



My next guest for this podcast series is Julie Knox. Julie is a highly experienced career practitioner who I’ve crossed paths with for many years now. She’s the owner of Blue Sky Career Consulting that she started up in 2013, and has also been a career coach mentor through the Career Development Association Australia since 2022. Something those who’ve encountered Julie in a more professional context might not know is that she’s also an avid jigsaw puzzler.



Julie only really got into jigsaw puzzling a couple of years ago, but she’s quickly become an active participant in Australia’s puzzler community. She now travels around the country to attend speed puzzling events, and recently attended the Australian Jigsaw Puzzle Association’s national competition in Melbourne. Still self-defining herself as an average speed puzzler, Julie sees many internal and external benefits from continuing with this hobby, as we’re going to delve into in this discussion.
