Join Jess and her insightful son, Cameron, as they tackle the complexities of generational work ethics and life perspectives in a conversation that promises to enlighten and entertain. Prepare to be part of an engaging mother-son exchange that delves into the distinctions between Gen Z and Gen X attitudes towards the grind of daily labor and the quest for a fulfilling life. They’re peeling back the layers on how each age group perceives hard work and happiness, with Cameron offering a Gen Z viewpoint on the unique pressures his contemporaries face, while Jess reminisces on the conventional values that have sculpted her career journey.

They’ll navigate the shifting tides of work-life balance and how expectations of traditional rewards like home ownership have morphed through time, stirring up a lively discussion on what it means to truly value one's work in today's economic environment. In a moment of levity, Cameron ponders the personal problems he’d ask Jesus to solve—and yes, it involves a rather mischievous cat! Tune in for an episode that skillfully blends introspection with a dash of humor, as we explore the idiosyncrasies, challenges, and joys that life throws our way, all shared through the unique lens of our generational viewpoints.
