“It's very easy to say Gen Z’s and millennials are demanding, they're needy, but if you really look at the core of what they want, they're basic human needs that we all want.”
There's a generational divide in the work place that Madeline Miller wants to change. Madeline is a career coach who focuses specifically on Gen Z and millennial clients, who she says are entering the workforce with an entirely novel set of challenges.
Madeline’s clients are in their twenties, and grew up in the age of climate change, sweeping tech innovations, and being educated online during a global pandemic. That all amounts to a brand new kind of instability, so it's no wonder they need a unique type of guidance at work.
In this episode, Madeline takes us through those shaky work stories - including her own, in her former life as a very successful but very unsatisfied entertainment lawyer (continuing with our over-representation of guests who were once dissatisfied lawyers…there’s something to explore there!). She shares how she helps her clients find their footing, and explains why it's high time that employers respond to the needs of new generations of workers.
Madeline Miller's BioI'm Madeline, founder of Coaching with Madeline. I strive to make executive coaching accessible for everyone—strengthening connections, cultivating empathy, and transforming leadership to create healthier, happier workplaces.
Through my unique A.I.R. coaching formula, I’ve empowered hundreds of individuals worldwide to thrive in their careers. My program is grounded in strategies that work, drawing from my personal journey of transformation. I went from feeling stuck and unmotivated, bouncing from job to job, to becoming a Hollywood entertainment executive, then the production attorney for the James Bond franchise. In 2021, I started coaching Senior Executives in media, tech, and entertainment to become happier, more impactful leaders. Then, in 2024, I built my own coaching platform, Coaching with Madeline. It is designed to provide high-impact coaching in a relevant, future-building way—especially to Gen Z and Millennials, who often lack the career guidance and leadership development they deserve.
