9 Lesson I'd Tell My 20-Something Self Now That I'm 40 ft. Jude Batrac
The Lazy CEO Podcast with Jane LuShow Notes
This week's episode is a very special one! Jane is marking a big milestone, her 40th birthday, with a tell-all letter to her younger self: the anxious version, the ambitious version, the broke version, the one who cared way too much about what people thought. Joining her is her best friend Jude Batrac, a workplace culture and employee experience leader with experience across Coca-Cola, Google and News Corp. Jude has coached hundreds of leaders and brings a sharp lens on what actually shapes confidence, decision-making and resilience, both in life and at work. They talk about why you don't need everyone to understand your decisions, how a lot of anxiety disappears after you make that one tough call, and why outgrowing people doesn't make you a bad person. They also get into why the life you're jealous of often comes with trade-offs you wouldn't choose, and the idea that your 20s are for trying things while your 30s are for figuring out what actually matters.
