No One Told Me This
No One Told Me This is a podcast about leadership, teams, and workplace culture, not as they’re meant to work, but as they’re actually experienced.
Hosted by Paul, the show explores the unspoken realities of working with people, the assumptions we make, the tensions we avoid, and the things we often learn the hard way. Through solo reflections, candid conversations, and the occasional deep dive, it’s a space to make sense of how work really gets done.
From culture drift and team dynamics to decision-making under pressure, each episode takes a grounded, thoughtful look at what leadership looks like in practice, especially when things aren’t neat or predictable.
Because sometimes the most important lessons aren’t the ones we’re taught. They’re the ones no one told us… or maybe we just weren’t listening.

S01E08 - Waste Factory (Part 3): The Rework Loop
You know the job. You did it. Then you did it again.
Welcome to The Rework Loop – where time, trust, and morale quietly disappear.
In Part 3 of Inside the Waste Factory, we look at the cost of doing things twice (or three times), and why rework is one of the biggest hidden departments in any business.
From vague briefs and silent stakeholders, to handover fails and perfection paralysis.
Paul and Jason break down four common culprits behind the rework cycle. Then, we explore a few simple levers that can help teams break the loop.
🎧 If you’ve ever wondered, “Why are we doing this again?”
This one’s for you.
