The Room Where It Happens with Mary Daffin

In today's episode: Mary introduces her private social club in Sacramento built around one core belief: that who is in the room matters more than ever. AI has made resumes look flawless on paper. The one thing it can't fake, and why face-to-face connection has become the real differentiator. Curating community on purpose, not by accident, and why diversity of voices at the table changes the conversation entirely. CEO Daily Brief with Dr. Jessica Kriegel is a 5-minute daily podcast where business pragmatism meets inner wisdom. Mary Daffin, co-owner of the Jacquelyn, a private social club in Sacramento, joins Jessica to discuss why physical community matters more in an AI-driven world, and how thoughtfully curated spaces bring people together in ways remote work and algorithms cannot replicate.
