About this listen
Think you’re great at group projects because you get your work done on time? That might not be the flex you think it is.
In this episode, CJ and Larone break down what really makes someone a strong team player—and why doing your part isn’t always enough. From ghosting your project tracker to hiding updates out of fear or perfectionism, they cover the small habits that quietly derail teamwork (and your reputation).
Whether you’re neurodivergent, naturally independent, or just burned out on bad collaborators, this episode gives you the real-world tools to show up better in group settings—without becoming the office doormat.
We cover:
What being a “team player” actually looks like in corporate settings
The lone wolf myth—and why it hurts your visibility
How communication styles impact collaboration
Why perfectionism can make you a bad teammate
How to give (and receive) updates without spiraling
Real-life examples of team tension—and how to fix it
Plus: CJ and Larone share their own teamwork fails, how they’ve grown, and the different approaches they take when team members don’t pull their weight.
