Ep52: Don't Stand so Close to Me!

This week Darsh has honed into a Reddit feed: Picture this; It's midnight and you have gone to the gym. It's quiet and you've hopped onto a running machine. 20mins in another person arrives and out of all the equipment on offer they hop onto the running machine right next to you. Is it normal to be annoyed by this and would you say something to the other person or would you move? Turns out each of our different generations has a very different answer to this conundrum and we explore the question about your personal space and what is todays expectations and social norms? From the gym, too buses and trains what is the right etiquette? Join the conversation and let us know what you think.

Ep51: How Do You Deal With Criticism?

In this episode we explore a recent quote by Gwyneth Paltrow that has piqued our Gen X's interest.

Join the conversation as we breakdown how each of our Gens deal with criticism (or don't deal with it well). Are we really that different? Or are conditioned with different resilience levels?
