Kathy told me "No matter what job you're in right now, no matter how happy unhappy, you should be interviewing every three months, every six months, I don't mean just to kick the tire. I mean to understand your worth and your value in the workplace and what's available … I'm not saying don't be loyal, I'm saying put yourself first, it's your life, what could be more important than your life, interview and don't worry … put yourself first, pursue the big dream".
