How to handle adding new columns to schema?

I have a schema, but I've decided I need to add a new column.

I change the schema.ts file, push, and get the error
LibsqlError: SQLITE_UNKNOWN: SQLite error: table work_experience has 7 columns but 6 values were supplied
    at mapHranaError (/Users/steves/repos/side-projects/resume-builder-2/node_modules/drizzle-kit/index.cjs:48352:12)
    at HranaClient.execute (/Users/steves/repos/side-projects/resume-builder-2/node_modules/drizzle-kit/index.cjs:48392:17)

    at async TursoSqlite.run (/Users/steves/repos/side-projects/resume-builder-2/node_modules/drizzle-kit/index.cjs:42848:9)
    at async Command.<anonymous> (/Users/steves/repos/side-projects/resume-builder-2/node_modules/drizzle-kit/index.cjs:53386:9) {
  code: 'SQLITE_UNKNOWN',
  [cause]: [ResponseError: SQLite error: table work_experience has 7 columns but 6 values were supplied] {
    code: 'SQLITE_UNKNOWN',
    proto: {
      message: 'SQLite error: table work_experience has 7 columns but 6 values were supplied',
      code: 'SQLITE_UNKNOWN'
    }
  }
}

I can solve this by dropping the table and then re-running the push, but I'm wondering if there is a better way to go about it,
