Apple Podcasts | Spotify | Android Devices | RSS

Have you heard about quiet quitting?

Almost everyone has, so we’re jumping into the conversation this week to explore what this term really means, what it’s not, whether it’s inevitable, and what other options we have.

Quiet quitting isn’t just a phenomenon of fed-up, overworked professionals with scope-creep and unreasonable workloads, suffering under unfair working conditions, and burnout finally standing up for themselves.

Turns out, quiet quitting has a lot to do with a chance to explore clarity, appreciation, and communication.

At the core of our conversation is a question:

What if the best way to address the hushed experience of quiet quitting is to have honest conversations about our goals, desires, and what we want and need?

Plus, we get to talk about Jennifer Aniston’s character in Office Space as a way to explore the core ideas of the episode!

In Our Conversation Today, We’re Exploring:

  • What Quiet Quitting originally meant and how that definition varies wildly from how it’s often portrayed in the media

  • What Jennifer Aniston’s “flair” in office space can teach us about workplace expectations around rewards and recognition

  • Why clarity and clarifying conversations are the keys to having an even better relationship with work

  • Why it’s absolutely fine to be satisfied with where we are at in our work life.
