The fine line between transparency and TMI.Let’s get into it: oversharing at work — we’ve all done it, and we’ve all cringed after.

In this episode, Kim, Jason, and Amy dig into a listener's story about sharing too much too soon and just how quickly oversharing can derail trust and create chaos. They unpack why these missteps happen, how different company cultures play into it, and what it really takes to find that sweet spot between transparency and discretion. If you’ve ever found yourself in the awkward aftermath of an overshare, this one’s for you.

Meh. Kim's voice is grating. (Not that she can do anything about it.) I am also bewildered that she shared the time she passive aggressively wrote a novel on the job for A MONTH. Both hosts also talk extensively about their time at Google. Disappointed.
