Podcast Insights
Content Themes
The podcast explores themes related to workplace wellness, with episode topics including the integration of Gen Z in the workforce, the concept of the 'Quiet Ego,' and financial well-being for workers. For example, episodes discuss embodiment training for new employees, innovative worker cooperative models, and the impact of caregiving experiences on well-being. The show aims to highlight practices that enhance personal and organizational wellness.
Gen Z is entering the workforce with new perspectives and expectations.
In this podcast, we’re here to listen to their stories and experiences – their successes and frustrations – and help employers understand the mindset and perspectives of the up and coming workforce.
Employers can’t dictate what their young employees find meaningful—what they can do, however, is empower them to create their own sense of purpose and authentic connections.
Our curriculum is designed to help them do exactly that, EV Leader Lab is committed to paving the way for more curious, engaged and connected, young professionals in the workplace.

Our guest today, Nick Cawthon is a veteran UX Designer, Researcher and Strategist based in the Silicon Valley area. We asked Nick in to talk to us about how the User Experience industry is integrating Gen Z and how Gen Z, being the first native users of handhelds, is impacting User Interfaces.
Nick is Principle of Guage Consultancy and Adjunct Professor in the Data Laboratory in the Design Strategy MBA program at the California College of the Arts. He is an organizer for the Interaction Designer Association and Customer Experience Association San Francisco Chapters and does a lot of invited talks at places like Xerox PARC, Google, HeavyBit, PeopleNerds and many others.
Nick shares the story of how drawing and design ignited his passion and then the journey of growing from designer to strategic advisor in many different industries.
As a technologist, Nick provides some very interesting and unique perspectives on AI, how it can help, how it can hinder and even a general attitude that is more productive than viewing it as one or the other.
Nick invites Gen Z to strap on the “jetpack” of AI and use it to show how efficient and effective today’s young professionals can be.
