In an episode we released almost exactly two years ago, we specifically told you you don’t have to get shit together. Do we still feel the same or is it, in fact, time to get your shit together?
Take a listen as we explore how our perspective on this topic has changed over the past two years, the barriers you’ll face when trying to get your shit together, what your goal should be when you’re trying to get your shit together, and more.

We tend to work with a lot of people who believe they’re incredibly self-aware, and it can be a little hard to break through when they’re actually not as self-aware as they think they are.
As result of this, we’ve realized that taking personal responsibility is one of the more difficult things to coach our clients on. So, we figured it was time to bring this topic to the podcast in case you’re maybe not as self-aware as you think.
In this episode, we want to dive into the topic of taking personal responsibility by showing you how to see the different ways you may be contributing to a problem, how to not get in your own way, and how to not be that person.

Are our fantasies our actual goals or do they represent something deeper?
Whether it’s drooling over #vanlife renovations on Instagram, or daydreaming of reading a book in our private library while overlooking a picturesque garden, or being jealous of the CEO on the cover an industry-leading magazine, we all have fantasies about the life or things we wish could have.
Sometimes those fantasies grow from a want to what feels like a need. But, does that mean we should burn it all down and chase after those daydreams?
In this episode, we explore the idea of what our daydreams and fantasies are really telling us, how we can gain clarity around them, and whether or not we should try to make them a reality.

“I don’t want to be a jerk, but …”
This is a phrase we’ve said both at work and in our personal lives. At this point, it’s become a default phrase in our vocabularies, and we’re guessing the same goes for you.
On the Inside Job podcast this week, we’re diving into why we call ourselves a jerk for doing things that really aren’t that bad, whether or not we’re actually being a jerk when we stand up for something or we represent an alternative point of view, and where our opportunity is to correct our behavior if we are truly being a jerk.

Eric Johnson, Nayla BahriShould we really leave our emotions at the door?
The inspiration for this week’s episode comes from one of Nayla’s clients who feels angry and frustrated after a recent merger and feels like she can’t take those emotions into the workplace.
At the end of the day, work is personal. So, we want to take a deep dive into the topic of sharing your feelings at work in case you’ve had similar struggles with knowing how to handle emotions in the workplace.

Is a lack of clarity costing you dearly?
This week’s topic is one of Eric’s favorites. It’s something that’s been brought up a fair amount on the podcast while discussing other things, but we want to make it the focal point now.
Specifically, we want to dig into what we mean by clarity, how to generate better clarity for yourself and others, and what might be the obstacle to asking for or offering clarity.

A “hostile” chat about dried fruit kicks off our episode this week and leads us into a conversation about difficult discussions.
We know from our experiences with our coaching clients, that many of you are likely either avoiding having a difficult conversation or are unsure how to go about having the conversation.
We want to help you overcome whatever is holding you back from finally having that difficult conversation by doing a deep dive of some of the principles we use in these situations.

What do you do when your new hire seems like a perfect fit during the hiring process but it’s clear it’s not working out when they get into the role?
Or, you put all your eggs into the career track basket you thought would get you promoted, but you find yourself plateauing?
Or, you’ve invested significant resources into launching a new product and the reception is underwhelming?
We all like to think we know how to handle things when our plans go sideways, but our experiences and those we’ve coached our clients through have repeatedly proven that’s not the case.
So, we’re taking the time this week to dive into the various ways we can respond to setbacks, the questions you can ask yourself to help you reframe the situation, and what you can learn from those experience to help you in the future.

Horror movie franchises, Florida State University’s 2024 football season, and prioritization might seem like they have nothing in common, but the connection leads us into our discussion this week about how to feel okay if you find your priorities changing.
When we set long-term career goals for ourselves, we might find that our priorities have changed by the time we see those realized.
Do you owe it to the prior version of yourself who put in the work to achieve that goal to see it through? Do know how to evaluate if you’re truly making a decision about your priorities based on what you want or based on the influence of others? What does it mean about you if your career is no longer your main priority?
We dig into all these questions and more in this week’s episode to help you begin the process of reprioritizing in a way that feels good to you.

Are you lazy if you don’t hustle?
Are you going to burn out more quickly or easily if you do try to hustle?
Ask any seasoned professional what they think of their younger counterparts and you’ll almost certainly hear about how they don’t work as hard or put in as much effort as people used to.
Do a Google search for the word “hustle” and you’ll see item after item talking about how hustle culture is toxic.
So, what should we strive for in the workplace? Hustling and working toward the rewards that come with it or taking a more laid-back approach and going a more sustainable path?
In this episode, we’re diving into this nuanced topic and doing our best to figure out a way to hustle without harm.
