Visit her LinkedIn.\nYou've probably done it today already. Pretended to be confident in a meeting when you weren't. Acted thrilled about someone's idea you didn't love. Celebrated a promotion that stung a little. We don't just manage what we say at work. We manage what we're allowed to feel.\nIn this Between the Seasons episode of Why Does It Feel So Wrong to Be Human at Work?, Pinaki Kathiari and producer Bree Bartos sit down with Lottie Bazley, internal communications manager and podcast host, to talk about code-switching, emotional labor, and the many versions of ourselves we carry between home and work, and between one work conversation and the next.\nLottie shares what it's like to be both the behind-the-scenes internal comms voice and the out-loud podcast voice (the Kara and Supergirl of it all), how finding your podcast voice can help you find your real one, and why being an oversharer might just be the thing that makes your whole team feel safer. Plus a genuinely useful reframe on the emotional cost of always performing the 'right' feeling instead of the true one.\nIn this episode, they discuss:\n•\tCode-switching: the different acceptable version of yourself for every person and every room\n•\tEmotional labor, and why we perform the expected emotion instead of the real one\n•\tHow you can feel two true things at once, genuinely happy for someone and disappointed for yourself\n•\tWhy finding your podcast voice can help you find your authentic one\n•\tOversharing as a gift: how one honest person makes a whole team feel safe to be human\n•\tTelling your manager 'I'm not at 100% today' and the relief that follows\n•\tThe other side of sharing, and being mindful of the weight you hand to other people\n•\tReading the room: sometimes the kindest thing is not dumping the bad-news article\n•\tThe mental palate cleanser and getting from 'crap' to 'okay' a little faster each time\nBecause the more the human side works, the more the productive side flows.\n---\nConnect...","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/pzVlCg7ln3V4X3Q1vTCzZqnoPAE496BdgiOlxcQzUO4/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS8xODAw/NjYyNTc3NjljNGI2/OWEwMmUyMjI1NWEy/NGJiMi5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
