| 8/31/26 | What Behavioral Science Says About Leading Under Pressure | For a lot of people, work feels especially chaotic right now.. Projects start and don't finish. Layoffs happen, then reorgs, then new strategies, and through all of it, managers are expected to have the answers. Caroline Webb spent 25 years coaching leaders through exactly this kind of turbulence. She's a behavioral scientist, a former economist and the author of the new book Leadership Intelligence: Science-Backed Strategies for Mastering 21 Everyday Management Challenges. This week she joins Jessi to talk about what the science of the human brain tells us about leading through uncertainty. In this episode, Jessi and Caroline discuss: Why the current moment hits a stress trifecta — demanding, uncontrollable and unpleasant — and what that does to your team's brains The "know-be-do" framework: how to lead people through uncertainty when facts are in short supply Why naming how you feel is one of the most powerful things a leader can do and what affect labeling actually does in the brain What "measured authenticity" means, and why "terrified" is not a word you want your manager to use How to be honest with your team when you know more than you can say Why letting projects die quietly is one of the most demoralizing things a manager can do, and what to do instead What Astro (Google X's moonshot factory) does when it kills a project, and why it works The "when-then" method for taking the sting out of worst-case scenarios before they happen "Compassionate clarity": what it means in practice when layoff season arrives Why walking people out of the building immediately is almost never necessary and what a seasoned CHRO said about it Follow Caroline Webb and Jessi Hempel on LinkedIn Join us for Hello Monday Office Hours, Wednesday at 3pm EST Listen to Caroline’s previous Hello Monday episode on how to have a good day at a bad job | 29m 49s | ||||||
| 8/24/26 | How to Make the Most of the Time You Have | We spend a lot of energy trying to optimize our time, but what happens when we're forced to surrender to it? Writer, meditation teacher and lifetime student of Buddhism Sebene Selassie has been living with cancer for more than twenty years. In that time, she's learned something most of us spend a lifetime avoiding: how little control we actually have, and how to find joy anyway. This is the third and final episode in our month-long series on time. We’ve discussed how we spend our minutes, our days, our months and our years. Today you’ll hear about how we make the most of all of it.. In this episode, Jessi and Sebene discuss: Why a cancer diagnosis at 34 became the entry point to a deeper spiritual life, and eventually, to teaching The tight relationship between fear and control, and how Sebene has spent twenty years slowly loosening her grip on both What Sebene’s ticking clock has taught her about the present moment The difference between joy and happiness, and why joy is available even in the hardest moments Why meditation isn't about feeling better, and what the saccharine corporate version gets wrong The paradox at the heart of Sebene’s book You Belong: A Call for Connection How grasping for time is often just grasping for control, and what we miss when we do this What it means to show up to life openhearted, fully as yourself Follow Sebene Selassie and Jessi Hempel on LinkedIn. Join us this Wednesday at 3pm EST for the return of Office Hours! | 31m 27s | ||||||
| 8/17/26 | The Case for Working Slower with Cal Newport | Being busy and being productive are not the same thing. Cal Newport, computer science professor at Georgetown and author of Slow Productivity: The Lost Art of Accomplishment Without Burnout, has spent years making that case. This is the second of three episodes from the archive that we're revisiting this month on the subject of time. In it, Cal joins Jessi to zoom out and ask: what does it really mean to get meaningful work done over the course of our weeks, our months, and even our years? In this episode, Jessi and Cal discuss: Why "pseudo-productivity" — using visible activity as a proxy for real work — was always a bad idea, and why mobile computing made it unsustainable How the pandemic pushed knowledge work past a breaking point The administrative overhead trap: why agreeing to too many things at once is slowing you down How to say no to new work without actually saying no, and why transparency is the key Why boredom is essential What your phone has to do with short-circuiting the most human productivity tool we have Cal's rule for his kids on smartphones and social media, and the age he thinks unrestricted internet access becomes safe Why doing fewer things at once will get you to the finish line faster What AI tools like ChatGPT are actually good for, and what Cal is waiting for them to do instead The difference between technology that helps you do things faster and technology that takes things off your plate entirely Follow Jessi Hempel on LinkedIn. | 29m 19s | ||||||
| 8/10/26 | You Have More Time Than You Think. Here's How to Use It. | Most of us are convinced we don't have enough time. Laura Vanderkam argues that we have enough time, we just aren’t using it with enough intention. This month, we're revisiting our series of episodes on time, and how we make the most of it. We’re starting here, with the bestselling author of numerous books on time management and the host of the daily four-minute podcast Before Breakfast. In this episode, Jessi and Laura discuss: Why 5 PM on Thursday is actually the exact midpoint of your week, and what that reveals about the time you're losing How Laura has tracked every half hour of her life since April 2015, and what nine years of data taught her The biggest time waster of all (it's not email or your phone) Effortful fun versus effortless fun, and why doing a little of the first before the second changes everything Why you should give yourself a bedtime, and how most adults are already getting more sleep than they think The case for moving for 10 minutes by 3 PM every day Why busy people need a hobby The Friday punch list: how batching your small tasks protects your best hours for the work that actually matters Follow Laura Vanderkam and Jessi Hempel on LinkedIn. | 33m 46s | ||||||
| 8/3/26 | Why Baratunde Thurston Fired ChatGPT—and What he Learned | Baratunde Thurston fired ChatGPT. And ChatGPT helped him do it. This week, the Emmy-nominated storyteller, writer and host of Life with Machines joins Jessi in the studio to talk about what it actually means to have agency in a moment when we’re still figuring out the rules and norms of AI. In this episode, Jessi and Baratunde discuss: Why Baratunde fired ChatGPT and what the chat bot taught him on his way out What he means when he says we're not using a tool, we're entering a relationship The "direction, not perfection" principle for navigating an imperfect landscape of AI companies and choices Why switching platforms is itself a practice of agency, and proof that you can leave What AI tools reveal about you that you didn't know you were sharing The two people living inside every employee at an AI all-hands: the one on-program, and the one who's scared and skeptical What the kids opting out of AI are trying to tell us What the internet could look like if we treated it as a public utility instead of a commercial space Why token-maxing is a "flagrant foul" in an era of climate change What executives get wrong when rolling out AI, and the questions they should be asking their teams instead Follow Baratunde Thurston and Jessi Hempel on LinkedIn. | 29m 48s | ||||||
| 7/27/26 | Busy But Not Productive? Daniel Pink on How to Fix It | Daniel Pink is a seven-time New York Times bestselling author, a three-time Hello Monday guest, and one of the most trusted voices on motivation and performance. This week, he joins Jessi in the studio to talk about productivity and regret: how to actually get meaningful work done, how to protect your time and attention in an age of infinite distraction, and how to use the things you wish you'd done differently as a map for what you actually care about. Jessi and Dan discuss: Why productivity shouldn’t be measured in units of output, it should be measured in meaningfulness The MIT method: why Daniel writes his single most important task at the top of his to-do list before anything else How to design your environment for deep focus instead of trying to willpower your way there The to-don't list: how to treat the things that drain your time with the same seriousness as the things you need to do Why you probably overestimate how disappointed people will be when you say no, and how to say it cleanly The SNL rule for shipping work: "We don't go on because we're ready. We go on because it's 11:30." What to do when your boss keeps changing the priorities The Pomodoro technique: whether it still holds up, and Dan thanked its inventor in the acknowledgments of one of his books Why regret is one of the most misunderstood and underused emotions we have The four core regrets that show up across 26,000 people in 130 countries, and what they reveal about what we actually value This conversation was originally recorded live and broadcast to LinkedIn Premium members.
