Episode Details

Where does your work live? If the answer is “everywhere and nowhere”—scattered across Slack threads, buried in email chains, lost in forgotten SharePoint folders—then this episode is for you.

In this episode of Process Debt, Chris and Toby unpack the messy reality of modern knowledge work and ask a provocative question: Is your work homeless? Together, they explore what it means for work to lack a consistent, discoverable home and how that contributes to chaos, confusion, and stalled productivity.

From shared drives that feel more like junk drawers to the false promise of “pretty” over “practical,” they dig into why clarity, structure, and ownership matter—and how to begin “cleaning your room” before trying to fix the whole house.

Whether you're a seasoned executive or a new hire still hunting for your team’s silverware drawer, this episode offers a candid, often funny, and ultimately hopeful conversation about how to give your work a proper place to live.
