The Epic Fail Edition

In which we tell stories about times we messed up

This has to be the frankest episode of the Mode Switch Pod so far. We’re a pretty hopeful bunch. But, as David warns us in this episode, not everything has a redemptive arc. Sometimes things just suck.

So this week, Emily, LaShone, David, Craig, and our Gen Z guest, Alex D’Agostino cuss and discuss experiences of professional failure.

But then, because we can’t help ourselves, we also look for small but significant shifts you can make when you “lose.” We thought about putting a mic at our table for the voice in our heads that’s always prosecuting our failures.

But we pulled the plug on that one.
