New Kid | Katy Milkman
No matter our age or experience, we all feel like the new kid sometimes. Whether we’re starting a new role, joining a different team, or changing companies, we have to learn the ropes and set ourselves up for success quickly—sometimes without ever reporting to an office. So, how can we make the most out of these big shifts? And can remote or hybrid work play to our advantage when we’re starting something new?
On today’s episode of Remotely Curious, we talk to professor and behavioral scientist Katy Milkman about why fresh starts are so exciting, ways to use transitional moments as opportunities to experiment, and how to embrace and enjoy change—even when we don’t ask for it.

We talk to musician, composer, podcaster, and creative powerhouse Hrishikesh Hirway about all things creativity: how to trust our instincts, the fine line between garbage and good ideas, the magic of creative partnership, and the ways remote work can actually help us stay inspired. -
Dress | Deirdre Clemente
Does how we dress affect how we work?
