  1. What Corporate America Actually Taught Us

    What Corporate America Actually Taught Us

    Corporate taught us more than we realized and not all of it was bad. This week Mandy and Mandy break down the skills they took from corporate America that actually made them better parents, partners, and business owners: having hard conversations, asking better questions, and mastering the art of small talk. They also get honest about the habits they're still trying to unlearn like guilt over taking breaks, feeling obligated to answer every text immediately, and the hustle culture hangover that doesn't quit. Plus, a girls' weekend in St. Louis, a rebrand photo shoot neither of them loved sitting for, and why one of them still color-codes her calendar like it's a corporate performance review. What did YOU take from corporate that still shows up in your everyday life? Drop it in the comments — we want to know. 🎧 New episodes every Thursday from The Corporate Burnouts

    If You Had to Start Over Tomorrow, Would You?

    What would you actually do if you woke up tomorrow with all your skills, experience, and wisdom, but zero network, zero reputation, and zero job or clients? That's the question driving this week's episode of The Corporate Burnouts. The Mandys get into it: the soft skills that outlast any job title, why your career path is probably circumstance, not intention, and what it really means to redefine success on your own terms. Plus: Mandy Holt's unexpected obsession with hibiscus plants, Mandy Alt's townhouse sale saga, the difference between working for something and fighting for it, and why so many of us feel trapped by a degree or a title we worked hard to earn. They close with a challenge: do a lifestyle audit. Ask yourself the hard question and stop waiting for a catastrophe to give yourself permission. 📩 Share what YOU would do: hello@thecorporateburnouts.com

  4. Imposter Syndrome Is Lying To You

    Imposter Syndrome Is Lying To You

    Ever felt like you've "tricked" everyone into thinking you belong? Yeah, us too. In Episode 67, both Mandys get real about imposter syndrome: what it actually feels like, why it hits hardest when you're leveling up, and why the goal was never to get rid of it. From Mandy Holt sitting in a boardroom at a multi-billion dollar company thinking "I have done it, I have screwed myself", to Mandy Alt pouring foamy beers as a brand new bartender, we've both been there. We talk about why imposter syndrome is actually a signal (not a stop sign), how to borrow confidence from the people around you, and why "ready" is a decision, not a feeling. Plus, college tours, early graduation drama, camper rentals, and a Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead reference you didn't know you needed. Topics: imposter syndrome, women in business, career growth, self-doubt, mindset, entrepreneurship, burnout recovery, personal development

    You Are Not A Victim Of Corporate Life

    You are not a victim of your corporate life and this episode is your wake-up call. In Episode 66, both Mandys get real about one of the most uncomfortable truths in burnout recovery: personal responsibility. After 65 episodes of unpacking toxic workplaces, bad bosses, and burnout, they're turning the mirror around on themselves and on you. They dig into why so many of us stay stuck in jobs we hate, and it's not just the health insurance. It's fear. It's comfort. It's a corporate identity we've built our entire self-worth around. It's the "frog in the pot" effect and the complaining circles that keep us boiling. This episode covers: Why you're not a victim (even when it really feels like you are)The "frog in the pot" theory and how corporate life slowly normalizes the unbearableProfessional codependency — and why loyalty to your boss isn't a reason to stayThe "choose your hard" mindset shift that changes everythingThe questions you need to ask yourself if you're ready to explore what's nextPlus, a reference back to their episode with Rachel Zimmerman on health insurance options outside of corporate, and a sneak peek at next week's topic: imposter syndrome. If you've ever told yourself "I can't leave" , this one's for you.

    Why You Can't Stop Procrastinating (And What to Actually Do About It)

    We'll be honest, one of us procrastinated on her own podcast class about podcasting. And that's exactly how this episode happened. This week, the Mandys get real about procrastination: why we do it, why we can't seem to stop, and the tips and tricks we're actually putting into practice. No judgment. We're both works in progress.

    From Criticism to Growth: Rethinking Feedback

    Whether you're the boss or the employee, giving and receiving feedback is one of the hardest parts of any workplace, and nobody teaches you how to do it. This week, the Mandys break down a real-life corporate nightmare: a manager who calls out his entire team on a weekly group call, gets called out himself for it, and completely falls apart. From there, the conversation goes deep on what actually makes feedback land, and what makes it blow up in everyone's face. They cover: Why bad bosses use feedback as an outlet for frustration (and how to spot it)The "praise in public, coach in private" rule and when to break itHow to give feedback that actually changes behavior vs. just ventingWhat to ask your team before you ever give feedbackHow to separate the delivery from the content when feedback is given badlyThe mindset shift that turns even the worst feedback into real growthIf you've ever had a boss who couldn't take what they dished out, managed someone who shuts down at the first sign of criticism, or just want to get better at this stuff, this episode is for you. The Corporate Burnouts is your no-BS, real-talk podcast for anyone who's ever wanted to quit, already quit, or is somewhere in between. New episodes every week. Follow so you never miss one.
