The CV is dead. It just doesn't know it yet.

The CV is dead. It just doesn't know it yet.

When I left my C-suite role, I did what most people do. Updated my CV, sent it to my network, and waited for opportunities to roll in.

Nothing happened. Or worse, the wrong things happened. Low-value contracts. Bum on seat energy. Work that felt like a step backward.

The problem wasn't my experience. It was the lens I was using to see it.
In this episode, I'm breaking down why your CV won't get you portfolio work, and what to use instead. I'll walk you through the Honeycomb Framework (the six domains that actually matter), show you the difference between CV language and portfolio impact language, and give you a practical exercise to start the shift.

About this channel: I'm Julie Fedele. Future of Work strategist and portfolio career mentor. I left a C-suite career in 2024 after spending four years building income streams alongside my job. Now I help women do the same.
This is The Editing Room. Where I share what I've learned about building a portfolio career: the strategy, the identity work, and the parts no one talks about.
