Trailer
Catt's Corner is a podcast that builds on my Rosenfeld Media book, “The Staff Designer”. When I wrote the book, I interviewed a ton of incredible staff and principal designers. I also got feedback from many design thinkers. Some of the conversations and feedback made it into the manuscript. A lot didn't. So I wanted to expand on the topic! I chose a few people to start with, went back to them, and asked: where are you now? What's changed? How are you actually adapting to a design landscape that feels like it's shifting under all of us in real time? Over the next two months I'm releasing eight episodes. The episodes connect to each major arc of the book. We're talking about what it means to be a staff designer right now, finding your archetype, protecting your energy at scale, shipping big ideas without losing momentum, building influence without a title, making the business case for design, what comes after staff... and a special closing episode about what it looks like to leave design. A quick moment of vulnerability: this is my first full podcast. I’ve done shorts here and there, but this is different! I'm learning a lot as I go. The conversations are the whole point, though, and I believe you'll love (and learn from) what you hear. I'm speaking at Config this week, and every guest answered one extra question for me: how they're adapting to AI right now. I'll be quoting a few of them in my talk on Thursday, so be sure to come through for that! A new episode will drop every Wednesday until August 19.
