This one is vulnerable for me, friends. In conversation with my best friend Lois Weinblatt, I speak to my ongoing struggle with burnout and what I plan to do about it moving forward. Namely, I’ll FINALLY be committing to writing my own personal 3-year vision as part of a Lois’ January February cohort. If you’d like to join me, you can find more information at wanttoworkthere.com/cohort.
Note: The January cohort filled up before I could even get the episode out...so I convinced Lois to launch a second cohort in February. Hope you'll join me!
In this episode we’ll cover:
My biggest AHA during my latest battle with burnout.Why I believe people ops practitioners are especially vulnerable to burnout.The importance of establishing your own personal definition of success, that isn’t a result of cultural programming or the values held by family or friends.What Lois’ personal visioning process entails and why I’m manifesting a January cohort of like-minded women.MENTIONED RESOURCES/LINKS

We’re back with new episodes! And today, we’re doing things a little differently.
I’ve invited Shira Grife and her boss Sara Rodell to rehash an actual conversation they had, each reflecting on their thoughts and perspectives in the moment. Why would we do that? Because it’s as real as it gets. No theory here, just an actual step-by-step breakdown of Shira deciding to (in her words) “say things I shouldn’t say to my boss” and how Sara reacted in real-time. It’s a master class in empathetic management, packed with actionable advice along the way.
P.S. Stay tuned after the closing credits for an extra (conversational) treat.
In this episode, we cover:
What motivated Shira to start a brave conversation with her boss.How to, as a people manager, create space for brave conversations.Why “what’s best for the company” shouldn’t be your only north star.Tactical ways to support unengaged or burnt out employees.What to consider before embarking on a brave conversation with your boss.CONNECT WITH SHIRA GRIFE

Welcome back to our ‘From the Vault’ series! I'm taking a short break from recording to fend off some growing burnout. In the meantime, I'm revisiting some of our favorite past episodes.
Today’s replay episode feels just as relevant today as it did when I recorded it almost a year ago. People Ops leaders are burnt out. Many are looking for a way out, whether that is consulting, taking a “demotion” to join a larger team at a more established company, or just quitting without any idea what comes next.
What would make these leaders feel supported?
That’s the question I’ve been asking myself and dozens of other HR professionals over the last few weeks. Luckily, I have some answers.
Six to be exact. Each as practical and actionable as they come.
In today’s episode, I’ll be walking you through each, so you can proactively work to retain your People Ops lead in the coming year.

Group think, introversion, and a lack of psychological safety all impede our ability to hear the real thoughts and options of team members during a brainstorm, feedback, or focus group session. While the severity of these issues always vary by group, they inevitably impact great data from surfacing in nearly every discussion.
In an effort to ensure all voices were being equally represented, I got creative when building out an internal focus group process a few years back - and the results blew me away.
Ever since, I’ve used that same method for all of my client engagements and it’s never let me down. In today’s episode, I’ll be sharing everything you need to know to build the method into your own internal processes, so you can experience similar results.
You’ll learn:
The simple hack I always use when leading brainstorming, feedback, or focus group sessions that allows me to capture insights from ALL team members.Why this method is PERFECT for remote or hybrid teams, but can also be utilized during in-person group conversations.How to avoid the mistakes I made the first time around when using this method.LET’S CONNECT

This week, we’re tackling a less glamorous, but incredibly important topic - burnout. I’ve experienced extreme burnout twice in my career. A few weeks back, I realized that I was heading in that direction again. I’m grateful for not only noticing, but acting on, the red flags way sooner than I have in the past. Still, it’s never easy! Today, I’m sharing four ways I’m tackling my burnout head-on.
Spoiler Alert: One of the ways I’m preventing further burnout is making the choice to step away from the podcast for a few months. It was an incredibly hard decision, but one I knew I had to make. I look forward to publishing new episodes again in October, but in the meantime, you can keep up with me via the newsletter.

If you had told me 10 years ago that strong documentation was one of the most important aspects of building great company culture, I would have thought you were nuts. But here we are. And that’s exactly what I believe.
Luckily, so does today’s guest, Podge Thomas, who shared so much goodness about the importance of documentation and how to incorporate it into your work practices. If you’re worried this will be a boring topic, think again. I got goosebumps, not once, not twice, but THREE different times during our conversation. It’s a good one.
In this episode, we discuss:
Why Podge approaches all her work through a lens of liberation and justice.What is documentation and how does it impact both employee experience and equity?The trouble with using Google Drive for documentation.Why we both love Notion so, so much.The thing most people get wrong when it comes to documentation.Tips for making the documentation process easier, including where to start.MENTIONED RESOURCES/LINKS

Words cannot describe how excited I was to talk with today’s guests. Less than 20 minutes after finding and starting their book on Audible, I knew I needed to track them down and see if they’d come on the show. Luckily, they agreed and we recently sat down to discuss what really makes a remote culture work!
Ali Greene and Tam Sanderson are long time remote work veterans who literally wrote the book on building sustainable, engaging remote-first organizations. Their book – Remote Works: Managing for Freedom, Flexibility, and Focus – is packed with practical, actionable steps for designing a remote environment that enables trust, autonomy, and accountability.
Together, we dove into a variety of incredible topics, including:
The difference between remote work culture and what many people experienced while working remotely during the pandemic. The three mindset shifts you MUST make in order for remote work to be a sustainable practice within your organization. What Standard Operating Behaviors are and why Ali shares them in response to anyone who says “You can’t build culture remotely - it just doesn’t work!”What rituals and artifacts are and how you can identify and design them intentionally for remote work environments. How to remotely recreate the “magic” that occurs when a team is physically together for a brainstorm.What GenZ doesn’t realize about remote work and how they can find great mentorship and community when working remotely. The remote best practices that hybrid organizations need to adopt in order to achieve true inclusivity. Both Tam and Ali’s favorite resources from the book. I’m personally a BIG fan of both!MENTIONED RESOURCES/LINKS

Note: When this episode originally aired, Roe v Wade had just been overturned - something that is touched upon in the conversation.
It has been a tough change for many since the overturning of Roe V Wade. In times like these, empathy is more important than ever. But what role does empathy really have in workplace culture?
There is no one better to help answer this question than Nōn Wels, founder of the Feely Human Collective and host of the You, Me, Empathy podcast. Luckily, he was happy to sit down with me and explore this very question, along with many more. At one point, our conversation gave me literal full body goosebumps, so you know it’s going to be an incredible one!
In this episode we’ll explore:
Nōn’s simple, but profound definition of empathy.What role empathy plays in the workplace.Whether or not empathy is something you can teach vs being an innate skill.How managers can signal to their teams that it’s safe to bring their whole self to work - regardless of an organization’s overall cultural norms.The power of emotional check-ins and how you can facilitate them within your organization.And the wisdom Nōn shared that gave me actual full body goosebumps.

Whether you missed them the first time around or (like me) need to hear something a couple times for it to really sink in, we hope you enjoy this “from the vault” episode!
Have you ever found yourself overwhelmed by all the options - and so you do nothing? That was where I found myself leading up to this interview, before realizing that this is a problem I frequently see with clients who are trying to figure out what to focus on and where to start when building a better workplace culture. I give the same answer to them every time - start with the data. I figured this is the best place for me to start, as well. So today, I’ll be sharing the seven data sources you should consider when undertaking an Employee Feedback Audit!
In this episode you’ll learn:
The real reason for employee survey fatigue. Contrary to popular belief, it's not the number of surveys you send. How far back you should go when collecting employee feedback data.The three types of quantitative data and the four types of qualitative data that absolutely need to be included in your audit file. What to do with the data once it’s collected.CONNECT WITH US

In today’s episode, I reflect on five core lessons I’ve learned over 10 years of being a remote manager. Managing a team remotely does have its advantages, but it also comes with its own set of challenges. I’ve learned some important lessons the hard way. By sharing, I can hopefully spare you (and your team) from having to experience the same!
In this episode you’ll learn:
The one assumption you should never make when managing remotely.How the “butts in seats” mentality carried over to remote working and what you must do to eliminate the problem.The one step you MUST always take before having a difficult conversation with a team member remotely.Why consistency is king when it comes to employee 1:1s.The importance of not just talking the talk, but also walking the walk - and what that looks like when you aren’t in the same room as your team!CONNECT WITH US
