The short version
One More 1:1 is a conversation series about the people behind the Open to Work banner. Each episode sits down with a professional in transition or the leaders working to change how we hire for an honest, unhurried talk about careers, identity, and what comes next. Hosted by NaKisha Stephens, an enterprise learning and development leader, the show exists for one reason: one meaningful conversation can open the door to what comes next.

Creator & Host, One More 1:1
NaKisha Stephens is the creator and host of One More 1:1. An enterprise L&D leader with deep experience in learning strategy, program governance, and organizational performance, she founded the show after seeing firsthand how talented, capable people were being overlooked and decided to build the platform that changes that.
Who's listening
Four groups keep showing up — and they tend to stay.
Professionals in transition
People navigating layoffs, pivots, and re-entry who want real talk about what comes next — not generic advice.
Hiring managers & talent leaders
The people doing the hiring, listening for a better way to see candidates beyond the résumé.
Learning & development leaders
Practitioners building programs around skills, resilience, and growth — our host's home turf.
Community builders & advocates
People who believe opportunity travels through conversation and share what they hear.
