Molly Graham is back for round two, and this one is even more powerful. Molly has spent more than 20 years helping organizations and the humans inside them navigate growth and change. She’s held leadership roles at Google, Facebook, Quip, and the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative and is the host of TED’s WorkLife podcast (which she took over from Adam Grant). She also runs Glue Club, a leadership community for senior operators, and writes a popular newsletter called Lessons. *In our in-depth conversation, we discuss:* 1. Why Molly’s famous “give away your Legos” career advice no longer holds true in an AI world 2. The grief, loneliness, and burnout sweeping through the tech industry right now 3. Why delegating to AI is fundamentally different from delegating to a human 4. The fear narrative around AI job displacement, and why it’s overblown 5. Which Legos you should never give to AI 6. What the best managers are doing right now *Brought to you by:* WorkOS—Make your app enterprise-ready, with SSO, SCIM, RBAC, and more: https://workos.com/lenny DX—Engineering intelligence for the AI era: https://getdx.com/?utm_source=lenny&utm_medium=sponsorship&utm_campaign=q42026 *Episode transcript:* https://www.lennysnewsletter.com/p/the-grief-loneliness-and-burnout *Archive of all Lenny's Podcast transcripts:* https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/yxi4s2w998p1gvtpu4193/AMdNPR8AOw0lMklwtnC0TrQ?rlkey=j06x0nipoti519e0xgm23zsn9&st=ahz0fj11&dl=0 *Highlights:* https://lennyspodcast.com/mostreplayedmoments *Where to find Molly Graham* • X: https://x.com/molly_g • LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mograham • Substack: https://mollyg.substack.com • Website: https://glueclub.com *Where to find Lenny:* • Newsletter: https://www.lennysnewsletter.com • X: https://twitter.com/lennysan • LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lennyrachitsky/ *In this episode, we cover:* (00:00) Molly Graham returns (03:34) What is “Give away your Legos”?
