The Gossip Office is your go-to podcast to navigate a corporate career as a young person. How can you stay professional while still having fun? What is the "smartest" way to climb the corporate ladder? Or should you just, as they all say, quit your 9-5 and do what makes you feel passionate? Calm down, we've got you. We also panic - but we try to explore these topics with the help of research, personal stories and interviews with people who took different paths in life.

59. The questions you should ask yourself - with life coach Marianne Norrgrann
This week we are talking to Marianne, a life and business coach. For more than 10 years, Marianne has coached her clients to find their direction in life. She knows all about how to arrive at your dream life, and how to set accurate goals that will get you there. In this episode, we express our doubts and our insecurities when it comes to thinking about the future, and what we want it to look like. Marianne gives us some very helpful questions to ask ourselves, and shares how you can find inspiration for your future without setting a five year plan.

57. We are bad at setting goals
With the amount of thinking and talking about our lifes that we do (and that we expose you to...) it is easy to believe that we have a clear multi-year plan and concrete goals to get to whatever destination it is we have in mind. And yet... goal setting is not something that comes natural to us. Corporate goals, however? Easy! Hit us with those kpi's and we'll run with them.
In this new theme we will discuss how to actually arrive at a vision for which you can create concrete goals. No, we will not dive into all the frameworks available to achieve your goals and make changes to your day-to-day, but we want to focus on the step prior. During the next episodes, we will have a guest who is a pro at setting goals, and who lives her life oriented around them. We also invite a life coach to figure out why we struggle so much to look further than next week!
But, in this intro episode we discuss our own relation to goal setting, look at some research around the topic, and even read a poem!
