About this episode

The episode discusses how Gen Z is reshaping the workforce with their unique perspectives on work culture and career paths.

ASA Women in Leadership Scholarship Winner Isabella Colosia joins former ASA Public Relations Coordinator Maggie Angevine for a candid conversation on what it’s really like to be Gen Z in today’s workplace. From hybrid work expectations and navigating office culture to career pivots, grad school decisions, and the evolving impact of AI on the workforce, the episode explores how younger professionals are redefining success, flexibility, and fulfillment at work. Isabella shares her unexpected path from pre-med to staffing and marketing, while Maggie reflects on leaving for law school after 3 years at ASA. Together, they unpack the value of human connection in an increasingly digital workplace, why Gen Z pushes back on traditional office norms, and how authenticity still matters in an AI-driven world.
