We're back.

Welcome to season two of HR Besties.

You ready for another recurring meeting?

I know we are.

Put that shit on your calendar, guys.

Did you accept the invite?

I did, but once again, I have a hard stop. Oh, God. Well, yeah, make sure if you are listening to this, you have got to accept that recurring meeting invited is so important, right? Because we cleared all the meeting notices from last year. And so if you don't re-accept that, you are not in the meeting. Don't you hate when they do that?

Well, and also, I've heard the strategy from some people where they come back, whether it's vacation,

New Year holiday, and they're like, everything in my inbox, beep, boom, boom. Delete. Yeah, yeah, I've done that before.

I did that from maternity leave. Well, that makes sense.

There should have been a plan.

There should not be a bundle of emails awaiting after your bundle of joy. But that's a level of power and confidence. I don't think I had. I would go back and reply and make sure. And, of course, everyone is like, no, this was taken care of. And I'm like, okay, got it. Thanks. But accept this one and share it with your friends.

Please.

Like a good email, reply all and loop a lot of people in because we always love to have more people sitting at our table at HR Besties. Of course. You're always welcome here. So like good corporate stewards, right, the post-mortem. Any lessons learn from season one? I mean, for Jamie, me, and I don't mean to speak in third

person like a weirdo, but I definitely said 100% a little too much. What are you talking about,

Jamie? I don't know what you're talking about. We haven't gotten any comments that have

reiterated that. No. I'll say, you know, I won't be self-aware. Instead, I'll reflect on others.

It has been amazing, like the topics we talk about. And for some of the contexts, you know, I won't be self-aware. Instead, I'll reflect on others. It has been amazing,

like the topics we talk about. And for some of the contexts, you know, we have no idea the stories

that the other besties are going to say. So if you listen to the first episode, and if you didn't,

pause, go back and listen to the very first episode. But Jamie and I had no idea that toe-sucking

would be the phrase that started our podcast.
