Episode 133: Holiday Do’s and Don’ts, SHRM Verdict and Cheers to the New Year!
Ho, ho, ho! Welcome to our final episode of 2025, Besties. Unfortunately, due to our busy December schedules, we weren't able to lock down a time to record all together. That said, we were able to separately record some updates on SHRM and a few last remarks before we go into hibernation mode over the holidays.
• Who's re-watching Hot Frosty this year?
• SHRM lawsuit verdict
• Throwback to some of our holiday party do's and don'ts
• Updates on the future of HR Besties in 2026 and wishing you a restful holiday!

Tune in to “HR Besties,” a business, work and management podcast hosted by Leigh Elena Henderson (HRManifesto), Ashley Herd (ManagerMethod) and Jamie Jackson (Humorous_Resources), where we navigate the labyrinth of corporate culture, from cringe corporate speak to toxic leadership. Whether you’re in Human Resources or not, corporate or small business, we offer sneak peeks into surviving work, hiring strategies, and making the employee experience better for all. Tune in for real talk on employee engagement, green flags in the workplace, and how to turn red flags into real change. Don't miss our chats about leadership, career coaching, and takes from work travel and watercooler gossip. Get new episodes every Wednesday, follow us on socials for the latest updates, and join us at our virtual happy hours to share your HR stories.
We look forward to seeing you in our next meeting - don’t worry, we’ll have a hard stop!
Yours in Business + Bullsh*t,
Leigh, Jamie & Ashley
