Welcome to episode twenty-two (episode one of S3!) of The EXperience Lounge! A weekly podcast dedicated to EX design, the future of work and digital HR.

In this episode, Laura and Sasha discuss some EX predictions for 2022 and debate whether they're really trends or just a bit of hype. They talk through the metaverse, well-being trends, work-from-anywhere failures and more! What else can we expect from 2022?!
