Issue No. 10 | The things we carry, the things we keep, the things we take care of and what they reveal about our emotional world. We all carry things with us—physical objects, generational moods like millennial melancholy, even feedback from a colleague. It’s part of what makes us who we are. And who we are is everything in how we approach and experience the world.

The manager 1:1 is a time-honored corporate tradition that when done well shapes your career for the better. When ignored or avoided, it’s a missed opportunity. Somewhere along the way this ritual became synonymous with rut. It devolves into idle chatter as two people each hold a hidden agenda they never discuss, leaving everything unsaid. It’s in desperate need of a revamp, rebrand, re-creation. Lest, it become the gravestone of management

In moments of uncertainty, it's natural for urgency, stability, or validation to become the focus.

Issue No. 7 | Where are you willing to be The Fool? Technology has made it easy to bypass the learning process; we never have to not know. But not knowing is the first step of growth of taking a leap of faith. In tarot, The Fool walks off the cliff—trusting the journey before knowing how it ends. EverMore can meet you there, at a new beginning, to help cultivate your magic, but we’re also here for messy middles and unexpected endings.

Issue No. 5 | Dancing on the resume's grave—The workplace and career landscape got bleak, but our tools didn't change. The career ladder and resume are long dead, but the solution won't be found in using AI to flatten people into identical tales and bullet points. Instead the opportunity belongs to the folks who can understand who they are, harness it at work, and tell the story only they can tell. It's kind of the whole point of EverMore.

A Case Study: Before EverMore, a director was drowning in pressure, avoiding hard conversations, and carrying his team’s growth alone. Then he met Stone. This is the story of how reflection, a North Star, and an AI coach who doesn’t placate helped him shed his armor and transform his leadership style.

To fully understand ourselves, we have to unwind the systems that make us. That includes how performance reviews influence our futures and self-esteem. These antiquated processes stick around because the system maintains a semblance of fairness, is open to interpretation, and places the burden of proof on the less powerful party. But there's a better way to center individual, team, and company growth. So here's how we'd build a performance system from scratch.

Your career leaves clues long before it offers answers. These tools for sharing your career story act as windows into the soul, helping you articulate who you are when you’re at your best, even when that’s hard to describe. For those who feel stuck, untethered, or ready to take authorship of their career, this is an invitation to find your voice before choosing your next step.

​​A reflective guide to giving peer or manager feedback without deluding or soul-crushing others. Sort out your own biases, calibrate overly positive or overly negative takes, and find where folks thrive.

EverMore doesn’t believe in performance reviews as a measure of a life’s work. But we do believe in the stories you tell about your impact—and the way those stories shape what becomes possible. This guide is about honoring yourself inside a process you didn’t create, so you can reflect honestly, speak clearly, and carry your career forward with intention.

Episode 7 of Dear EverMore tackles an emotional topic—what’s wrong with feedback at work. Feedback often feels hidden or manipulative in workplaces, leading to harmful cycles; true growth requires honest self‑knowledge, discerning personal feedback from others’ projections, and giving feedback from a place of abundance and intentionality.

Episode 4 of Dear EverMore dives into the murky intentions of performance reviews and why they're not a reliable exercise. We talk about the anxieties and impossibilities of using reviews to serve competing needs like compliance, compensation, retention, and development. With so much on the line, everyone becomes a performer.

Most of us gather feedback the same way. We ask, "Do you have any feedback for me?" and in that moment, honesty gets sucked out of the room, and all we hear is a "nope." Instead, learn how to elicit directed, honest feedback from the right people while understanding your own intentions and authentic career desires.
