Picture this: It's 2038, and your grandkid finds your old smartphone buried in a junk drawer. She stares at it like it's a caveman's club and asks, "Wait, you had to use your hands to use this all day?" In this episode, we unpack why everything you think is "normal" has an expiration date and why clinging to your old workflows, resumes, and even college degrees could be a dangerous trap. We'll bust open the illusion of permanence and show how our brains—and our organizations—are hardwired to fiercely defend even the most doomed habits. From the death of the resume to the rise of anticipatory AI and the coming extinction of rigid jobs and static credentials, Futurist Ira Wolfe is here to challenge your assumptions. Adapting to the future isn't about predicting what's next. It's about letting go of what used to be. While listening, ask yourself: What are you fiercely defending right now that your grandkids will find laughable?
