In the exciting Season 5 premiere of The Saus, hosts Molly McKinstry and Liz Hajjar dive into a topic that resonates with everyone in the workplace: what's in our control, what's outside our control, and what we can influence. Inspired by March Madness basketball tournament dynamics, the duo explores how we often waste energy stressing about things beyond our control—like company-wide decisions at the C-suite level or leadership changes—while underestimating what we actually can control, including our mindset, attitude, boundaries, and communication style. Molly and Liz also unpack the powerful middle ground of influence, where constructive feedback, relationship building, and intentional presence can shape outcomes without directly controlling them. Join them as they kick off an exciting new season with practical wisdom for navigating workplace dynamics with confidence and clarity.Sausers, thank you for being here, whether it has been for 1 episode or all episodes, thrilled to have you as a part of The Saus community!

They discuss remembering you're more than your job title. Whether you're facing a layoff or contemplating change, Liz and Molly offer a compassionate roadmap for navigating career changes while staying true to yourself. A timely discussion for anyone feeling the impact of recent industry shifts.

Back with their first episode of 2025, Liz and Molly share their survival guide for high-pressure moments at work and life. After weathering what felt like "the longest year that was January," :) they break down three game-changing phrases to maintain your cool when tensions rise: "That's interesting, tell me more," "Help me understand your perspective," and "What would a good outcome look like for you?" Whether you're facing an urgent crisis, managing conflicting opinions, or navigating tough decisions, these practical EQ strategies will help you lead with clarity and stay composed under pressure.Simple but not always easy!

This week on The Saus your hosts discuss Growth vs Fixed mindset. As Molly's son is growing his LAX career and Liz watched a handful of colleagus finish a marathon, this was a perfect topic for this week. You know when you look back on something and go, "That was tough, but I learned a lot" or "That was tough, but I'm glad I went through it." Those are often signs of a growth mindset. Often times when things get hard - inside and outside of work - we want or need to find a way to get through it (because sitting how things currently are isn't what you desire). Once we do, we are happy it is behind us, but we've learned a lot from it and are in a 'better position.' Using Dr Carol Dweck's research that breaks down a growth vs fixed mindset, Molly and Liz talk about examples and times inside and outside of work they have had both fixed and growth mindset.
