Welcome to episode 117 of the Testing Peers podcast.

This time, join Chris, David, Russell and Heather as we discuss closure and letting go!

Heather kicks us off with a discussion around last-minute travel decisions and we think Russell probably wins!

The Peers then jump into a discussion about letting go.

Changing roles. What is your identity? Who am I (professionally)?
What am I good at? What do I enjoy? What will I do when I retire?
Is it out of your control?
What can we do as leaders? How can we ensure our teams are heard?

The Peers talk about adaptability and agility. The toll and fatigue that can be associated with letting go.

Russell spins the conversation around more positivity so what are the group proud to have let go of?

Heather mentions ShipItCon, specifically the talk by Charity Majors you can find a link to watch it here.
