Navigating a multi-generational workplace isn’t always easy, but it’s more important than ever.

In this episode, Lauren and Cara explore the generational divide and share practical strategies for improving workplace communication, setting boundaries, and leveraging the unique strengths of every generation.

From understanding why a Gen Z team member prefers texting to why a Boomer might avoid instant messaging, they break down real-world examples and actionable tips to help teams work together more effectively. Whether you’re managing a multi-generational team or collaborating across age groups, this conversation offers insight, humor, and guidance for building a workplace where everyone can thrive.

When new management comes in, it’s hard not to wonder what it means for your job.

In response to a listener question, Cara and Lauren unpack a familiar but rarely discussed scenario: a company acquisition, the introduction of an external agency, and the quiet fear that job security might be fragile.

This anxiety is valid, but more responsibility can actually signal trust. Learn how a role shift might be a secret promotion in disguise.

If you’re navigating change, new management, or questioning what your role really means right now, this episode is for you.

What does it actually mean to work alongside AI?

In this episode we break down the future of work through a clear, practical lens: AI as a coworker, not a replacement. Together, we unpack the difference between generative AI and agentic AI, where automation helps (and where it absolutely shouldn’t), and why humans still own judgment, context, and responsibility.

You’ll hear how to think about AI like a real hire—what guardrails matter, how trust is earned, and why speed without strategy can make things worse, not better. From healthcare and climate prediction to content, leadership, and performance metrics, this conversation reframes AI as a tool that reflects our incentives—for better or worse.

If you’re navigating AI at work and wondering how to stay relevant, ethical, and in control, this episode gives you a grounded way forward.
