The work holiday party is back with a vengeance, and showing up to mingle with your coworkers comes with its own set of concerns. Add holiday schedules, time off requests, seasonal depression and coworkers who may be checked out…and there’s plenty to talk about this holiday season. We’ve got the tips that will keep you off the naughty list, and help you survive this crazy time of year.

Thinking about leaving your job? It’s not an easy decision. There’s lots you can and *should do before making that move to set yourself up for the future. We take a look in our latest episode.

We’ve all heard about sweeping layoffs taking place at companies big and small. If that’s happened to you, we offer advice for workers of ALL ages, because losing your job means different things at different times of your life.

Since we’re still pretty new at this, we wanted to take a minute to let you know that we’ve heard all the comments you’ve made, and ideas for future episodes, and we’ll incorporate them in the future. Thanks so much for listening!

The ever-elusive work life balance: some say they’ve found it, but most of us are constantly chasing it. And most (including us, come on) come up short. The struggle is real. We take a look at what makes the balance work, and remind you not to beat yourself up if it’s *not working out. Because...it often doesn’t.

We've had them all: really, really good bosses and the oh so terrible ones. Good bosses foster trust and encourage employees to be their best. Bad bosses cause anxiety, mistrust AND make you want to pull your hair out. And that's only scratching the surface.

Fact: everyone gets older. But no one is truly comfortable talking about it, especially at work. In our latest episode, we take a look at what to do and what NOT to do as you get older at work, and how to protect yourself from being "phased out" because of your age.

Why do women still make less than their male counterparts? There have been improvements for sure, but generally, women make about 20-30 percent less than men. A new law is designed to level the playing field, requiring employers with four or more employees to display the range of salaries of every job in the company. Will that have an impact? What else needs to change? We discuss everything gender...

The best work environments are those that have a mix of older and younger workers, learning from each other.  But there are major differences in how these groups view work: older workers have been conditioned to say yes to everything, and younger workers are challenging the norm. They're asking why, challenging established rules of the office, and making everyone reevaluate what's really expected...

There's always that one person in the office who has a job you KNOW they are ill-equipped to handle. But he or she continues getting promoted, despite being awful. "Failing up" is the topic of our first podcast.  Featuring Roma Torre, Kristen Shaughnessy, Jeanine Ramirez, Vivian Lee and Amanda Farinacci 

Hundreds reached out to us for guidance since we left our jobs,  and since we know the issues better than anyone, we want to share our wisdom.  Here's the trailer of our new podcast, "The 5 of Us." We'll start delving into the issues, but first, let's catch up.
