Thank you Chloe and Ed for participating in our generational Jeopardy game. How was it for you? What do you think about the game? 00:22:13:04 - 00:22:15:19 Ed Stressful. 00:22:15:21 - 00:22:24:10 Chloe That's it was I felt good. I like adrenaline, so it was a good adrenaline rush for the day. Yeah. 00:22:24:12 - 00:22:39:16 Stephanie He and so I'm curious if you want to maybe share a little bit about how it felt showing up as a representative for your generation Chloe,. If you want to go first, like showing up as a representative for Gen Z. 00:22:39:18 - 00:22:59:10 Chloe yeah. So I think, well, immediately when I came here and I got like, you guys sent out that list of, like clothing to wear on set, but I remember specifically to show up as you, but a lot of it was like casual formal wear. But then I took, like, the show up as you like, as really like as a Gen Z. 00:22:59:10 - 00:23:21:16 Chloe It's kind of like, I like having a purpose or a sense of purpose or feeling like when I do something, there's purpose happening for more. So like me and so like I want to show up as me, but also like in an extreme or type of way, kind of like pushing outside of like a container, essentially, like living outside of the container. 00:23:21:16 - 00:23:28:03 Chloe So I want to do more extra than I usually would, just to represent like who I am. Because when I go out, this. 00:23:28:03 - 00:23:28:16 Stephanie Is what I have here. 00:23:28:16 - 00:23:32:04 Chloe When I go out, like to represent myself and I. Yeah. 00:23:32:06 - 00:23:38:02 Stephanie Yeah. What what about you? how do you feel representing for Gen X? 00:23:38:04 - 00:23:39:19 Ed Pretty typical. 00:23:39:21 - 00:23:42:11 Chloe May. 00:23:42:13 - 00:23:46:14 Ed Be too generational, but yeah. 00:23:46:16 - 00:23:48:18 Shaniqua Typical. 00:23:48:20 - 00:24:03:06 Shaniqua Well, when you're thinking about, starting with you, Ed, like generation X, how do you think that, older generations perceive you and how do you think younger generations perceive generation X? 00:24:03:08 - 00:24:26:19 Ed Oh, jealousy of course. I mean, the greatest, the latchkey kids that got left at home that got to do anything. So from from little facetious ness there, but a little truth also, you know, we were the, the generation that got to do anything without the supervision. Yeah, we still had the confines and constructed the previous generation to kind of oversee it. 00:24:26:19 - 00:24:29:12 Ed All the wheels on the cart, so to speak. 00:24:29:12 - 00:24:48:17 Shaniqua So how do you think that, do you think the younger generations understand? Because I would have seen that baby boomers were the ones that essentially made latchkey kids. But do you think like millennial millennials or Gen Z or even Gen Alpha like, would understand like the latchkey ness of Gen? 00:24:48:17 - 00:25:06:16 Ed Sadly, I don't think they do. And I don't think they'll have the opportunity. I think that was a big piece of my childhood. Was that independence, that willingness to explore and being encouraged to do so because nowadays I think those there's more training wheels and less bruises incurred. 00:25:06:18 - 00:25:38:18 Stephanie And realistically, Gen X, we were the first generation. His mothers went to work en masse and and they didn't really know, you know, what they were doing. Like, from a societal perspective, we weren't really set up to support working mothers. And so it wasn't like there was just childcare readily available. And there was a lot more of, sort of I think over time, kids, like, became more infantilized as they grew older, where with us it's like, you know, oh, well, they're five. 00:25:38:18 - 00:25:57:07 Stephanie They'll be able to like, keep themselves alive for a few hours, you know, and, and there just sort of was just that sense of like, survival as, that we were, that was sort of ingrained in us. So I think that affected the latchkey aspect of it a lot is like our moms all went to work. we didn't have a plan in place for that. 00:25:57:09 - 00:26:00:06 Ed probably wasn't the best thing, but it wasn't a choice either. 00:26:00:06 - 00:26:22:08 Chloe So, yeah, I agree. I think at least when you mentioned the training wheels, especially my generation, if you think about it like now, like it'll be first place, second place, third place, you lost, you lost. Now it's like, oh, here's a a reward for participating or you got in fifth place, you got in 10th place and you still get a ribbon. 00:26:22:13 - 00:26:40:12 Chloe And I think, you know, now there's that expectation. At least I feel like I'm a little bit more, more sensitive, especially to, like, losing or like all these other things because there's always that cushion, especially with like, my parents. And I'm grateful for that. I'm like always like trying really hard to take care of me, always putting forward my needs. 00:26:40:17 - 00:26:57:18 Chloe Like if something happened at school, immediate email, like my mom would always be there. So there are positives. But also like, I feel like there's a lot more sense of like fear in the real world, at least on my end. yeah. The fear of independence. 00:26:57:20 - 00:27:08:12 Shaniqua So, Chloe, how it how do you think older generations perceive you? And how do you think younger gen like Gen Alpha perceives Gen Z? 00:27:08:14 - 00:27:38:02 Chloe I feel like generations are older than me. Probably see my generation as, like, lazy or, like, just kind of like to go with the flow, like, who cares? And this and that, which is like kind of true, but also like I don't perceive myself as lazy necessarily. I see as myself exploring multitudes of different options. and also like, it's true, like I don't care that much about money, like at all. 00:27:38:04 - 00:28:04:08 Chloe I would rather have a job that represents my purpose and me. That whole I want, I want, I want me, me, me. I think a lot of us feel that way from my generation, but not in like a self-serving way, more in the sense of, like, what am I giving to the world? And how do I represent, like how I'm giving back into like my own existence, like who I am? 00:28:04:10 - 00:28:21:12 Chloe also, there has been like studies shown that like, people in my generation suffer from a lot of mental illness. I think it was like 55 percentile for Gen Z and then like with Gen X, it's actually like 31%. Now, how many Gen X is go to like, you know, therapy and stuff like that in our open therapy. 00:28:21:12 - 00:28:41:20 Chloe I don't know if that's a part of the statistics or not. Statistics are like statistics. So it's like man. But also I feel like I'm way more open to talk about mental illness. Like even me like within like a work setting, a friend to friends setting and just like, wow, this is me, this is who I am. and so how do you think? 00:28:41:21 - 00:28:45:14 Shaniqua How do you think Gen Alpha perceives you? A Gen Alpha. 00:28:45:16 - 00:28:47:15 Chloe Old? Oh, yeah. 00:28:47:17 - 00:29:09:09 Chloe I used to be a cheat. to. And I did all turn of education, and I worked with kids with autism, and, the kids in alternative education, they saw me as old. Like old, old like, I remember were playing, like, rap songs and stuff in the classroom. And like I said, like, guys like, why are you like, let's not play that, like, you know, ski song. 00:29:09:10 - 00:29:12:14 Chloe So ski. No, no. Okay. Well. 00:29:12:16 - 00:29:15:13 Chloe I mean. 00:29:15:14 - 00:29:34:00 Chloe Maybe they're like, I remember they were like playing that in class and I was like, there is no skiing in class today, guys. And they're like, you know, it's ski years now. I was like, yeah. And they're like, you're old. Like, how would you know that? So they perceive me as old, but yet there's only like a what I was teach I'm helping teach like 14 year olds, like 13 year olds. 00:29:34:00 - 00:29:37:20 Chloe And I'm only like I was 23 at the time. So it was like. 00:29:37:22 - 00:29:41:12 Stephanie It already feels like a gap at that point, right? Feels like there's a gap like. 00:29:41:12 - 00:29:47:19 Chloe Yeah, but there isn't that much like is part of. Yeah. There's like iPods, not iPods. Sorry. 00:29:48:22 - 00:29:50:08 Shaniqua I know. 00:29:50:10 - 00:29:51:19 Chloe That. 00:29:51:21 - 00:29:52:21 Shaniqua I forgot, but. 00:29:52:21 - 00:29:55:11 Chloe Oh, there's like but. 00:29:55:13 - 00:30:23:03 Ed Yeah, I think the younger generations are more on track with the more clearer delineation between personal and work. if there's anything I think my generation got wrong from the previous generation was see worked or that work ethics that said, we the company owns you and that's just the way it is. And you do what they say that shift that's occurring, through communication. 00:30:23:05 - 00:30:28:03 Ed Right, is a huge one. And I think that's the positive at all. 00:30:28:05 - 00:30:54:14 Shaniqua Khloe, us more from Gen Z. You're more of a digital native. What are your thoughts on how like, technology impacts, communication at work or even in personal lives? I think, technology, I'm not the hugest tech person when it comes to like using technology, especially at, like I guess within school made it easier to contact my professors. 00:30:54:19 - 00:31:25:11 Chloe But also, I think it opened the door of being more like, I guess, real and like honest through email and communication. I think there are definite drawbacks and that, like you were saying, because sometimes I'm once it's like written and you have something in writing, it can be used against you 100% and it's documented. So you have to be very careful with what you say, how when you send an email, I don't know when sending an email at 2 a.m. at night was like bad like like it would send an email at 2 a.m.. 00:31:25:11 - 00:31:47:04 Chloe He had am I professors because I would be freaking out about a project. But you know, but it's also like that email could have waited while and I could have had time to decompress, figure things out on my own. It's more like I need this instant. Like I need it now. Like you need to respond now. and I, I do tend to do that a lot. 00:31:47:06 - 00:32:14:20 Chloe but, yeah, I think technology has impacted my generation in a positive but also slightly negative way as well. I can see both of your perspectives. like validating something that my grandpa, my grandfather, said, before he transitioned, he, he's from a silent generation, and his heart went out to us like everyone after us because he just could not understand, like, emails at work. 00:32:15:02 - 00:32:45:04 Shaniqua When my grandfather went to work, he went to work at 6 a.m., he got home at 5 p.m. and work stayed at work. And that was one of the things that he said helped him, you know, decompress or work through conflict was because if he got upset with, you know, someone on his team, he had the night to think over it, to decompress across like because he found out early on it wasn't necessarily the person it was what's going on. 00:32:45:06 - 00:33:02:13 Shaniqua He felt overwhelmed or anxiety, you know, from the situation. So he had time to think about it at home and then go into work fresh versus now he was seeing like it could be very, stressful to like, be on the clock, essentially. Yeah. 00:33:02:13 - 00:33:29:07 Stephanie And to know where to set those boundaries. It's like they they make it very challenging. to the point I, you know, Ed was speaking about having a warped sense of work ethic. and it's like when, when we think about work life balance, which I have been trying to consciously shift to life work balance, because let's set our priorities right and we should we should be living, you know, and, and then working in that context. 00:33:29:07 - 00:33:55:21 Stephanie And so it really does matter. I and I'm always encouraged when I see Gen Z, for example, or even millennials do it to a lot more, setting those boundaries, creating the right space. You know, and just I think it's really important. Yeah. So I'm curious for both of you, what are your opportunities to participate with other generations. And how often do you have that opportunity. 00:33:55:21 - 00:34:02:18 Stephanie And like do you seek that out, or do you find that it's difficult to connect to other generations? 00:34:02:20 - 00:34:29:20 Chloe I actually all my friends are millennials. I have some that are, you know, young in my generation, but most of all, my friends are millennials are the ones I like consistently talk to. And engage with. My, boyfriend's a millennial. and I appreciate the maturity aspect of it. growing up, I think I transitioned in college where I was like, man, everyone's just like partying and doing this and that, and I didn't want to party. 00:34:29:20 - 00:34:56:04 Chloe I wanted to focus on my grades in school, and I kind of just became friends with grad students. And that just kind of like motivated me because it was like, no one's making dumb decisions. No one's going out at like night and driving while they drank, which happens a lot, especially in my generation. and I know that probably happened with millennials, but they're at that age now where I remember we were going to a club and we all drank. 00:34:56:04 - 00:35:15:10 Chloe Having a good time, and then they're like, okay, we're going to call the Uber. Let's split it. And I was like, an Uber. We're taking an Uber. They're like, yeah, Chloe. Like, you can die if you're drinking time. Like I know, but like I've never had friends who were this mature about it. and so they were like well from personal experience like now that we're older. 00:35:15:10 - 00:35:34:08 Chloe And so I kind of after that was like, I want to surround myself with people who are smart, mature, already established, in life. And so to motivate me and to be like, wow, I can be like that, I can do this, I can do that. So me on a more positive, positive path. Yeah. That's beautiful. 00:35:34:08 - 00:35:37:12 Ed Yeah. That is what about you? 00:35:37:14 - 00:36:11:06 Ed I actually like the younger generations and exposure with them. just from the creativity level, I should say. my generation tends to be not less creative, but more just do a grind and get on with that kind of thing, you know, like, like when it comes to, agricultural practices or, or beekeeping or anything like that, it's a lot of the clubs, it's the youth that are coming up with the new ideas, the, the different practices and policies and things. 00:36:11:06 - 00:36:20:18 Ed And I feel very encouraged by that. I tend not to get as stressed as a lot of my generation does. It seems. I'm just really not that angry old white guy. 00:36:20:21 - 00:36:22:13 Chloe Yeah. 00:36:22:15 - 00:36:39:15 Ed Play one well. But, for the most part, I'm actually really encouraged by the younger generations. You know, I think we've given them quite a, bag of shit, so to speak, to process and deal with. And the creativity and the optimism that's being approached with it is commendable. 00:36:39:17 - 00:36:42:09 Chloe So, well. 00:36:42:10 - 00:36:52:22 Shaniqua Do you guys have, let's share, like, takeaways? well, like our guests to go first and then Stephanie, you and I. Yeah, we'll share ours. Ed, would you like to do you have any takeaways? Sure. 00:36:52:22 - 00:37:07:08 Ed No, this was, exciting. I, I'm not as, generationally as aware as I thought I was. So there's something to be said there, but it was, stimulating conversation, and I enjoyed it. Thank you for having me. 00:37:07:12 - 00:37:10:02 Shaniqua Thank you. What about you, Chloe? 00:37:10:02 - 00:37:25:00 Chloe I felt very comfortable. I think it was good that, like, it was not. It was me versus at the beginning, like, versus a Gen Xer. I actually really appreciate it. Reminds me of, like, I don't want to compare you to my dad. No, no, but, like. 00:37:25:02 - 00:37:27:09 Chloe Yeah, this same energy. 00:37:27:09 - 00:38:01:16 Chloe I felt comfort in it. and so it felt fun, just like participating in this and just, like, engaging in, like, a community activity. I'm new to Austin, and so I, like Shaniqua was my friend. and and so but, but it's like, I'm new. I don't really do much. I don't go out as much. and so this was like something to engage and, I think was, like, really helpful for me to put myself, like, out there and engage in something positive and fun, small. 00:38:01:18 - 00:38:10:02 Shaniqua So it's beautiful to have you here. And, as a friend, if I may share, Chloe got into grad school. She's going to Baylor. Yeah. 00:38:11:02 - 00:38:12:05 Stephanie So I'll celebrate that. 00:38:12:07 - 00:38:12:23 Chloe Yeah. That's so. 00:38:12:23 - 00:38:16:07 Shaniqua Exciting. She got into her top choice. That that top choice. 00:38:16:09 - 00:38:18:05 Stephanie Amazing. That's amazing. 00:38:18:05 - 00:38:31:17 Shaniqua Well, I you I have two takeaways. the first takeaway is I think that, most of our stereotypes about generations are just like, ill informed. 00:38:33:14 - 00:38:59:07 Shaniqua I guess misconceptions, to hear that, like, every generation has played outside, I think that's like, what kids like to do. Yeah. and I think sometimes parenting can, require kids to stay inside, but I think kids naturally enjoy exploring. It's from what I understood, from curiosity. Kids are curious. So I think that, some parents may, give their kid technology to see, to give them space and time. 00:38:59:07 - 00:39:42:06 Shaniqua So maybe we should start looking at parents, whether the parents are giving technology versus, like, blaming or saying shaming kids for technology. So that's my first takeaway. Then my second takeaway was about like that, about generations, like how we also categorize generations. I think that there's some nuances to it because, as you mentioned, like Gen X being like the first like latchkey kids, because like, that was where, like women, the generation where women went to work as a black person, it was, something to celebrate when your mom got to stay home because it's like black women have always work. 00:39:42:06 - 00:40:05:05 Shaniqua So I grew up as a latchkey kid as well, and I know younger generations of, black and brown kids are also latchkey kids. So I think it's also like something that is like more nuanced and like, I think the generation conversations that are divisive are broad strokes versus like looking at individual, individuals and their upbringing. So those are my key takeaways. 00:40:05:05 - 00:40:24:23 Stephanie So I think that's a great takeaway. And it makes a lot of sense. I think it's a lot of what happens when we get kind of stuck into our mindset of how we perceive. And then it's what starts to allow us to create blame as well, you know, when we do that. So, I first of all, I just want to like double highlight the takeaway that all kids play outside. 00:40:24:23 - 00:40:27:00 Stephanie Okay. Like yes. 00:40:27:02 - 00:40:27:23 Stephanie That's encouraging. 00:40:28:03 - 00:41:08:10 Stephanie It just it seems like such a ridiculous thing to not just know is true. But I do think that there's a real reality in a, in a real large group, especially of the older generation that have like sort of convinced themselves that, you know, this isn't the truth, but I think like the, the, the converse of that is also the takeaway that like, regardless of what generation's exposure have been to technology that all generations are sort of of like, love hate relationship with it, the, as much as we perceive that, you know, Gen Z or millennials or whatever may be like, you know, the tech group or whatever, it's been thrust upon 00:41:08:10 - 00:41:40:05 Stephanie them in many ways, you know, and they've had to adopt and, and all of those things. But it's like everybody seems to want to be able to create that space and and kind of control, you know, their own energy and how it gets accessed. And so, I think it was really actually encouraging to hear, you know, that we all because these are things that we can come together on to improve things for everybody, you know, and in general way and the way that we work together or the way that we are friends and communicate with each other. 00:41:40:05 - 00:41:46:04 Stephanie So, to me that was very, very eye opening, specifically around the technology stuff. 00:41:46:06 - 00:41:59:18 Shaniqua You'd be, interested in knowing that Chloe and I were not friends on social media. She's Gen Z and I'm a millennial, and we didn't swap social. So I think, yeah, 00:41:59:21 - 00:42:05:18 Chloe we we're in person. Like, I show up at our door. I'm more of a knock on each other. Stores. Yeah. 00:42:05:19 - 00:42:13:16 Stephanie I mean, me and my friends, we call each other on the phone. Yeah. And we do it without even warning each other. Yeah. Like we literally just the phone rings and we're not afraid. 00:42:13:18 - 00:42:14:19 Chloe To touch it. 00:42:14:21 - 00:42:27:00 Shaniqua I think that's how we should be. Well, because I think it's like we're inundated with so much like so many notifications, like I am on a campaign of telling all my friends and family that I disable and deleted text messaging. 00:42:27:01 - 00:42:39:16 Stephanie So we we did. Before we wrap, we did forget something very important. And then we're going to have to wrap our show because we have another one coming up. Yes. If you want to reach underneath there any that's to. 00:42:39:16 - 00:42:43:16 Shaniqua Me or 00:42:43:18 - 00:42:54:21 Stephanie So, we would like to give you this participation award for, for just fitting and, you can hold it up to the audience and let them see. 00:42:54:21 - 00:42:59:16 Ed Generation that brought about the participation. 00:42:59:17 - 00:43:00:12 Chloe yeah. 00:43:00:14 - 00:43:01:06 Ed Really grateful. 00:43:01:06 - 00:43:04:03 Chloe To finally get my. 00:43:04:05 - 00:43:10:05 Stephanie Image.
