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 …

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, everyo…

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 o…

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…

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 pe…

Dudes. Like. We have so much time to figure it out. To figure out what we want our next move to be. To figure out what our career should look like. To figure out what we're going to focus on at work next quarter. Big things don't happen in 24 hours. Big things happen over weeks, months, and years. It's ok to have shitty days and shitty weeks.

Basically - fake it till you make it. People newer to the working world, and especially underrepresented minorities in the workplace, aren't as likely to act like they're levels above what they actually are in the workplace.

You know what? Not every professional relationship you make is going to benefit you, your mental health, and/or your career path.

Because these founders out here are kinda wild fam. Inevitably, when you join a startup or even a mid-size company, the culture is going to be created by the founders.

Ok so here's the thing. We've all seen some straight up DUMB takes on social media that have gotten way too much engagement.

And sometimes when you do that, you accidentally find a…

It's a tough pill to swallow but here it is: Your company doesn't care as much about you as you may think.
