Скачать или смотреть Ep 19: Lost in Translation: The Gen Mess Goes Global

Have you ever wondered why your “normal” feels so weird to someone else? Or why workplace tensions sometimes feel like they’re about more than just the work?

In this eye-opening episode of Gen Mess with Tess, I sit down with Lanie Denslow, cultural translator and author, to talk about the invisible cultural codes we live by—especially as Americans—and how they impact our relationships, especially at work.

Together, we explore:
🧠 How culture is actually “the software of the mind”—not just food, fashion, or language

🌐 Why Gen Z across the globe is challenging burnout, rethinking success, and demanding mental health support

🍑🥥 The Peach vs. Coconut metaphor—and why it explains so much about American communication

🤝 How cross-cultural and generational misunderstandings can actually be opportunities for growth

🛠️ Why EVERYONE (not just leaders) needs cultural training in today’s workplace
