#4: Birthday Reflections and the Howard Schultz Story

Today, we're taking a slight detour from our usual antics. Guess what? Tomorrow's my birthday, and I'm turning the big 4-2!

Birthdays always get me in a reflective mood, making me ponder over the past year and my entire 42-year journey. Do you ever find yourself questioning everything around this time too? Maybe it's a "super unemployable" syndrome—never really satisfied, always pushing for more.

To celebrate, I want to dive into the life of one of my favorite super unemployables: Howard Schultz, the mastermind behind Starbucks. Inspired by his story on the "Acquired" podcast, we'll explore how a mere "three" in a job review propelled him to greatness.

So, grab your favorite drink, get comfy, and let's chat about the highs, lows, and endless pursuit of fulfillment. Oh, and if you have a story to share, I'd love to hear it! Reach out to me on LinkedIn—I'm Dean Horsfield, and I'm eager to connect with fellow super unemployables. 🎙️

Here's to all of us with birthdays on the horizon—may we find happiness and growth in our journey. Thanks for tuning in!
