This week's episode is all about the people red flags that can quietly cost you money, time, energy and sometimes your sanity.

Jane is joined once again by her best friend Jude Batrac, a workplace culture and leadership expert with two decades of experience across Google, Coca-Cola and News Corp. Together, they unpack the five biggest people red flags they've seen in business partners, investors, senior hires, employees and even friends in business, bringing both a founder's perspective and an HR leader's lens.

They dive into why misaligned values, poor communication, ego over outcome, a lack of accountability, and ignoring your founder instinct can become some of the most expensive mistakes you'll make in business. They also share the green flags worth looking for, and the qualities of the people who make businesses stronger, not harder.

Whether you're hiring your first employee, building out your leadership team or deciding who deserves a seat at the table, this episode will help you become more discerning about the people you build with.
