Curiosity #25 - SPECIAL EDITION!! There’s a new voice in the locker room… and it’s got jokes.

🌟 From Believe to Brutal Honesty (With Love) 🌟

Hey there, Lasso-leaning legends! 🧣⚽

If you love Lead It Like Lasso for the heart, the hope, and the leadership life lessons, we’ve got something new you might just fall hard for—like Ted tripping over a metaphor. 😅

👉 It’s called Work In ProgMess—and it’s everything Lead It Like Lasso would write…
…if Lead it Like Lasso had a mischievous, sarcastic younger sibling who rolled their eyes at corporate buzzwords but still cared deeply about helping people get better. 💼💥

Think of it this way...

🧑‍🏫 If Lead It Like Lasso is Coach Ted,
⚡ Work In ProgMess is Roy Kent on espresso… after an HR violation.


📬 What’s Inside Work In ProgMess?

🌀 Satirical breakdowns of leadership & work culture
🧨 Brutally honest takes on personal growth & networking weirdness
🎯 Unsolicited advice you’ll actually want to take (or at least laugh at)
🐺 A never-miss Bitter End easter egg—the weekly equivalent of Roy’s growl: short, sharp, and sneakily wise


👀 Who It’s For:

✨ People tired of reading LinkedIn advice that sounds like AI stuck in a glitch loop
🧠 People who like a little wit with their wisdom
🚀 People who want to grow—but don’t want to gag while doing it

🙅‍♀️ Who It’s Not For:

✔️ If you have your act all the way together
✔️ Never feel imposter syndrome
✔️ Already own a yacht named “Synergy”

This might not be for you. And honestly—congrats. 👏
But before you scroll on... forward this to someone who’s:

🔍 Fighting for a job
📉 Struggling to stand out in a sea of bots
📬 Wondering how to get their résumé actually looked at

They’ll appreciate it. And so will we. 💙


🤔 Why Now?

Because you’ve already shown us you believe leadership is life (and you’re our people).
But sometimes leadership also means:

💥 Calling out the nonsense
😂 Laughing through the awkward parts
💪 Admitting we’re all figuring it out as we go

That’s what Work In ProgMess is all about. And we’d love you to join the fun.


📅 Sign up here and get Issue #1 on April Fools’ Day

(Yep. Intentionally. Yep. It’s a whole thing.)

👉 Sign Up for Work In Progmess! 

 


We’ll still see you here in Lead It Like Lasso.
But if you’re ready for the unfiltered, slightly snarkier side of personal growth…
👋 Come meet us in Work In ProgMess.

Because leadership isn’t always clean. It’s a mess.
And we think you’ll love it.

Biscuits & Brutal Honesty,
Marnie & Nick
Purveyors of biscuits, believers in growth, founders of a ProgMess

Curiosity #49 - Time for the Biscuits
🎤 Quotable quotes:“People don’t bond over PowerPoints. They bond over stories, laughter, and a little shared awkwardness.” Which was your favorite: Ted handing out little plastic army men to his players as good-luck charms? Ted showing up at Rebecca’s office with a pink box of biscuits every single morning? Or the time he made the team play a goofy “rom-communism” game to remind them that ha...
