About this episode
We’ve been told our whole lives that competition makes us better, sharper, and more successful. But what if that belief is holding us back? In this episode of The Career Contessa Podcast , I’m joined by Ruchika Malhotra—founder of Candour and author of UNCOMPETE —to challenge the myth that competition is the key to growth. Instead, she shows us why uncompeting is the real path to abundance, joy, and lasting success. You’ll learn: Why the idea that “competition makes us better” is more harmful than helpful How to shift from a scarcity mindset to one of abundance Practical strategies to embrace collaboration without losing ambition Show Notes Weekly Newsletter Sign-Up: http://bit.ly/37hqtQW Guest Resources: Website: https://www.ruchika.co/ Book: https://www.ruchika.co/uncompete-book LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ruchikatm/ Career Contessa Resources Book 1:1 career coaching session: https://www.careercontessa.com/hire-a-mentor/ Take an online course: https://www.careercontessa.com/education/ Get your personalized salary report: https://www.careercontessa.com/the-salary-project/ Sponsor: Go to calm.com/contessa for 40% off unlimited access to Calm’s entire library.
