  • Episode 14 - Quarter life crisis and feeling lost in life
    Jul 20 2022
    Have you ever felt lost, not knowing what to do, or even if the way you feel is the right way?

    When we feel lost, we tend to question everything, hoping to pinpoint the reason for feeling like that. This leads to a downward spiral that can be hard to control.
    When that happens, we simply lose all direction and purpose. This situation can impact different parts of our lives, like relationships, careers, and personal growth.

    In this episode, we talk about this sensitive subject, and we share our thoughts on it.

  • Episode 13 - Including introverts in the work culture
    Jul 6 2022
    It's often the case that the louder you speak, the more credit you get. But, what if you are not the person that enjoys being in the center of attention?

    We believe that recognition should not go only to people that speak a lot. How should introverts deal with the attention-grabbing dynamics happening in different companies?

    In this episode, we discuss how we can set up an environment where both introverts and extroverts thrive.

  • Episode 11 - The "yes, and" mindset
    Jun 8 2022
    Is thinking "and" more powerful than "or" thinking?

    When you're talking with a friend or colleague and you don't agree with them, do you use "yes but", instead of simply saying no? That is quite a common thing to do, but most of the time it doesn't lead to anything productive. Instead, it creates friction and frustration.

    However, there is another alternative to it.

    In this episode, we are unpacking the "and" vs "or" thinking in various circumstances, from friends' discussions to job feedback and anything in between.

    We are also curious about what you think. Join our discussion group on Studylia.com/friends-dont-say and let us know what you think about this topic.
