s Gen Z redefining the future of work, or just refusing to play by the rules we were taught to follow? In this lively and thought-provoking episode of The Corporate Burnouts, Mandy and Mandy unpack the generational tension brewing in today's workforce. From job hopping to unapologetically setting boundaries, Gen Z might just be onto something, and it’s challenging everything we thought we knew about “professionalism.”

We loved this episode with our awesome guest, Heather Swan, owner of YarnCom. It was so interesting to hear her corporate story and how she lived through and got caught up in a toxic workplace. What we loved most was what she learned from it and how she took those lessons and started her own business with amazing culture.

Once again in this episode, we have another guest talking to us about boundaries. Set your boundaries in the workplace upon starting a job or even after years in the office. Communicate them and stand by them to enjoy your work/life balance so much more.

Heather also gave some great tips to make your current situation work for you. She walked through some steps to work with HR to help rectify your work issues.

Did you know that your social media presence can potentially alienate employers and clients? We have always known this but have learned a lot recently about how deeply people can dig to see all of your activity online.

In this episode, we discussed some surprising ways that potential and current employers can track you online, including being able to see all the comments you make on others' social media posts. This was wild to learn about. They can see it all!

We also shared a story that a listener sent in about how she got in trouble at work because of a day in the life post she made. We learned that what seems harmless can still be frowned upon by your employer or clients.

Last, we discussed positive things you could post on your socials that will actually help you at work. If you can think of any we didn't share, throw them in the comments!

We loved this episode with our guest, Kelli Risse! Kelli is a peak performance executive coach, professional speaker, and author, whose mission is to help overworked, overwhelmed, and overstressed high-achievers shift into peak performers to avoid or recover from burnout. She is so full of knowledge about burnout and we learned so much!

Kelli walked us through the steps to go from being a high achiever to becoming a peak performer. This means that you are the same person but you are balancing everything you have to and want to do better. You still get good results but you won't end up in strain and burnout.

Once again in this episode, we were given the advice that self-care has to be a focus when you are trying to avoid burnout or recover from it. And once again we went to therapy with our guest and had a couple great breakthroughs!

Kelli shared so much great info but she has so much more that we couldn't fit in this episode. If you want to learn more from her, she has a One Day Breakthrough Experience for rapid transformation. She is also a speaker that is perfect for your next event or conference. And of course, you can pick up her book (the 1st one in a 4 book series), Mindset Mastery.

Attention corporate and ex-corporate besties - you need to hear this! Your coporate career wasn't a waste. There are so many skills and processes and experiences that you can take with you into your future endeavors, whether it's starting a business or working for a smaller company. You will definitely have a leg up on the competition.

We loved having Annie Callaway on the podcast this week! Her experience in corporate was very similar to ours and we love her point of view on what you can get from your corporate journey.

She took her corporate experience and used it to become a very successful entrepreneur, especially now, as a Realtor and Real Estate Broker. She shared so much about how a corporate background can help all Realtors but if they don't have that kind of background, no problem - she will help you with that training herself!

Annie and her business partner Chad Elledge are the co-owners of Realty ONE Group Trifecta in O'Fallon, MO and co-hosts of the podcast REal Chat with Annie & Chad. We absolutely love their podcast, where they talk about real shit, loosely related to the real estate industry. Their banter is so fun and their knowledge about real estate is incredible. If you are a Realtor looking to learn more about the industry you're in, these two will not only entertain you but keep the knowledge nuggets coming about the industry.
