Season 2 Episode 51 - 2025 Predictions: Hits, Misses, and Plot Twists We Didn’t See Coming

What a year. In this episode of the Managed Chaos Podcast, Rachel and Katrina revisit the predictions they made at the start of 2025 and break down what actually happened, what surprised them, and what still feels unresolved.

From the rapid (and chaotic) evolution of AI to the rise of seamless customer experiences, micromarkets, and the growing importance of authentic storytelling, this conversation is an honest, thoughtful reflection on how business trends really played out. They unpack where expectations met reality, where things moved slower than anticipated, and why the human element matters more than ever as technology accelerates.
