Self Control & Cheese Sara Pion and Bridget Poetker

Sup babes. Today we're talkin' control - what it feels like when you have it and what it feels like when you don't. And how to regain a sense of control when you lose it. Let's be real - when control is taken away from you it can feel like you're a child who had their toys taken away. Any feedback feels like you're whining and you can't figure out how to level set like an adult again. We've been there. We hate that shit too. So we're here for the season 2 finale to talk about it. And as always, the most powerful way for you to regain control is by leaving a toxic work environment. We're here for you always.

Like no one is having a good time right now. What with the.... state of the US government, the world, and trying to get back to normal when things aren't normal, companies haven't figured out how to adjust and create employee engagement programs without culture being implied by an office. And it's starting to show with the great resignation, everyone feeling burnt out, people quitting their jobs left and right, and an overall bad vibe in the air. Companies need to use the money they're saving in rent and put it towards making their employees happy. Cause right now we're all tired, kind of sad, and just ready for hot girl summer at this point....

Hey bestie. You asking yourself if it's time to find a new job? Or you're questioning how you know when it's time to find a new job? News flash - that probably means it's time for a new job. When companies are looking out for themselves, you have to look out for you. And you know what's ok? Not spending years at a company before you move, looking out for yourself and your career path, and not always being a team player. It's ok not to be a team player if the game is fundamentally rigged against you. So we're joined by the one and only John Thomas Lang who drops some knowledge on looking out for yourself and your career.

So you got laid off. That fucking sucks. We would never deny that and think you should go through the 5 stages of grief before you're really ready to figure out what comes next. But whenever you feel like you're ready to figure out what comes next for you, it can feel foreboding, scary, unknown, alone. Here's the great news, you're not alone. Being laid off is a lonely and individual experience, but there are so many people just like you who got back on their feet and learned and evolved from the experience. Whenever you're ready to do that, this episode is for you.

Don't even lie - you don't either. Listen the 8 hour work day/40 hour work week was created for factory lines to get the most out of the workers as possible. We're B2B marketers working behind computer screens all day. Most of our work each day can be accomplished in 3-4 hours of uninterrupted work. The thing is... we are usually interrupted. By people either virtually or physically. And that's FINE. Make those distractions for yourself sometimes. We weren't working all 8 hours we were in the office every day. We were out and about, changing up where we were working from, stopping by a co-workers desk to ask a question, or just going outside for some air. Do that at home. You're allowed and you should.
