    Storytelling is the ONE Skill You Need in 2026 | @Elevenlabs Head of Partner Marketing, Sophia Noel

    Sophia is one of my best friends, the officiant of my wedding, and one of the most cracked marketers I know. She's led campaigns at Airbnb, Databricks, and ElevenLabs. She won Best Dance Film at the LA Film Awards. She's also going through her biggest plot twist yet: leaving tech to pursue her art. Full time. For good. 🙂‍↕️ In this episode, we talk about: → why AI will never replace storytelling, taste, and human connection → her honest take on the job market, what 20-somethings are getting wrong, and what a great interview actually looks like → how she faced being belittled in by an interim CMO who said they need someone "more senior" when she led the campaign all along This one is for anyone who has done everything right and still felt like they were playing it too safe. Sophia is the most elegant proof I know that the pivot you're scared of might be the one you were always supposed to make. → Find Sophia: https://www.instagram.com/sophianoel_ Submit your Coworker Confessions 👇 https://bit.ly/coworker-confessions If you like what you hear please follow, rate 5 stars on Spotify and Apple Podcasts ⭐️ and leave a comment! 🫶 It's free~ 𝙎𝙊𝘾𝙄𝘼𝙇𝙎 🌸 instagram → https://www.instagram.com/chloe.shih/ OD instagram → https://www.instagram.com/officedrama.pod/ tiktok → https://www.tiktok.com/@chloeshih threads → https://www.threads.net/@chloe.shih linkedin → https://www.linkedin.com/in/chloe-shih/ patreon → https://patreon.com/OfficeDrama ✹ business inquiries: business@colorsofchloe.com See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

  2. The “Anti-Hustle High Achiever” Mindset | Product Design Manager @Discord, Tobi Bisiriyu

    The “Anti-Hustle High Achiever” Mindset | Product Design Manager @Discord, Tobi Bisiriyu

    My old Discord work bestie just got promoted *twice* in one year and I needed to know how he did it without losing himself in the process. Tobi Bisiriyu is a Product Design Manager at Discord and he's one of those rare people who is genuinely great at his job, actually likes it, and still makes work the least interesting thing about him. He cosplays, he goes to anime conventions, he walks one hour every day without exception, and he has a philosophy about life that I think more people in tech need to hear. In this ep, we talk about: → Why looking competent is actually what's holding junior designers back → the "contract you write for yourself" and how to know if you're breaching it → why middle management is actually a "death" trap → say yes to the scary thing...before you talk yourself out of it. → being greedy "with integrity" and why it's good to want it all → and why getting a four in life matters more than getting one at work This episode is for anyone who is good at their job but wonders if there's a version of success that doesn't require you to give everything else up. Tobi is one of the most intentional people I've ever worked with and somehow he got even more thoughtful since we last worked together. → Find Tobi on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tobibisiriyu Submit your Coworker Confessions 👇 https://bit.ly/coworker-confessions If you like what you hear please follow, rate 5 stars on Spotify and Apple Podcasts ⭐️ and leave a comment! 🫶 It's free~ 𝙎𝙊𝘾𝙄𝘼𝙇𝙎 🌸 instagram → https://www.instagram.com/chloe.shih/ OD instagram → https://www.instagram.com/officedrama.pod/ tiktok → https://www.tiktok.com/@chloeshih threads → https://www.threads.net/@chloe.shih linkedin → https://www.linkedin.com/in/chloe-shih/ patreon → https://patreon.com/OfficeDrama ✹ business inquiries: business@colorsofchloe.com See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

    I gained 1M followers…but lost friends

    Today, we're unpacking all the angsty stuff about burnout, success, insecurity, and friendship.The entire episode runs on two parallel arcs:1. Chloe hitting 1 million followers and dealing with the fallout2. Eric trying to keep up emotionally, creatively, and personallyWe discuss how friendships evolve when one friend takes off career-wise, how to stay emotionally grounded, and how to stay connected despite chaos.This is sincerely my favorite episode so far. It's incredibly nuanced, a scary conversation to have, and such an interesting behind-the-scenes deep talk of our inner worlds. Hope you enjoy! love, chloe + eric 𝙏𝙃𝙀 𝙅𝙊𝙈𝙊 𝙃𝙊𝙎𝙏𝙎 🎙️ 𝗘𝗿𝗶𝗰 𝗪𝗲𝗶 IG: https://www.instagram.com/erictway co-founder of Karat Financial, helping creators with finances 𝗖𝗵𝗹𝗼𝗲 𝗦𝗵𝗶𝗵 ⁠IG: https://www.instagram.com/chloe.shih/ tech pm turned creator making videos on career, personal growth, and life in your 20s/30s.

    My Honest Feelings about Chloe’s Wedding... | Season 2 Premiere

    Welcome back to SEASON 2 of the Joy of Missing Out podcast! After a 1 year hiatus, we are finally back. Tysm for your patience. We also did receive plenty of angy comments about why we didn't come back in 2025 😅 but just remember, it's just us doing it from my living room o___o (yes, this is Chloe). Podcasting looks so chill, but the production ops is a monster to do right. I also changed careers, joined a new agency, got married, worked a BUNCH, and tried to produce this pod. I vowed to myself that if it wasn't good, it's not going out. I finally think it's ready to release! Eric and I decided to kick off the first episode with THE WEDDING ✨ This episode is about my wild, overwhelming year (wedding, career explosion, burnout) and Eric's personal chaos (broken foot, heartbreak, startup pressure, loneliness). ChatGPT says: Together, Eric and Chloe talk about friendship under pressure, how distance tests connection, and what it means to come back together after a year that nearly broke both of us. (HAHA wow so dramatic) Hope you enjoy our S2 premiere!

    Networking as an Introvert.

    “It’s all about who you know.” We’re constantly told to go out there and network, to the point where we feel like we can’t miss a single event. And the million dollar question: what if you're an introvert? From our years in corporate and now the content space, we've been to our fair share of networking events and picked up a few tips along the way. This episode is a dump of the stories, the L's, and insider tips we've gathered on the art of networking.
