Summary
Sue Unerman & Joel Barnett join Emma Harris to dissect the chaos, stress, and sheer exhaustion that's become the norm. We're talking about the relentless pursuit of "mandatory growth" and how the "Instagram phenomenon" has us constantly comparing ourselves, adding even more pressure. We're also getting into the deep-seated issues within business culture and why it feels like we're all on a burning platform. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
