When negative feedback shakes your confidence, it can be difficult to get back to feeling like yourself at work. In this episode, Anne and Frances help a struggling listener who has spent years toning herself down in the workplace after being told that she was too assertive — now, she feels that her modest approach is holding her back. Together, they use Anne and Frances’s “trust triangle” framework to explore how empathy, authenticity, and logic can help you rebuild confidence and trust with your colleagues, and share helpful confidence hacks for getting comfy with discomfort.

In this episode Matt and Mike discuss something more important than your MVP (Minimum Viable Product), project cornerstones. If a feature of your MVP has no viable substitute, focus on ironing that out first - then move on to the rest. These project cornerstones, if left unattended, can lead to a project's complete failure. Imaging working on the UI, text chat, and overall feel of an app like Snapchat, only to find out that the stack you're using won't allow you to use the camera on iOS devices. Problems like that can easily be overlooked and can just as easily result in hundreds of hours of lost work.
