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 #66 - How to Lead Like a Heisman Winner
(Fernando Mendoza Edition) Before Fernando Mendoza ever showed up at Indiana, he did something most people do not think to do until after they have already stumbled through a few awkward first impressions. He asked for photos, names, and positions of every single player on the team. Then he memorized them. So when he walked into the locker room for the first time, he was not the new guy guess...
Curiosity #65 - Turning the Page
🎤 Quotable quotes: “It’s funny how things have to end so that something else can begin." — Ted Lasso   As 2025 winds down, a lot of us are doing the same thing. Looking back. Taking stock. Wondering what stays, what goes, and what comes next. And as we look toward 2026, there’s one thing we’re all quietly excited about. Ted Lasso is coming back. Season 4 is on the horizon, and with it, the re...
Curiosity #64 - The Art of Making People Feel Welcome
🎤 Quotable quotes: “To the family we're born with, and the family we make along the way. And, most importantly, to Richmond" — Higgins   If there were a patron saint of holiday gatherings in Ted Lasso, it would be Leslie Higgins. In The Carol of the Bells, we see it clearly. Higgins opens his home. The table fills up. Players, coaches, partners, and plus-ones gather around, many of them far f...
