#73 Inside Going Direct: Gen Z vs Millennial Debate On The Future Of Work

Going Direct Conversations · Aug 13, 2026 · 1h 5m

I sit down with Duncan Young, founder of Saorsa Growth Partners and writer of the Substack Conduit of Value. We dig into why the future of work looks completely different for Gen-Z vs. Millennials. We discuss:

* Door A vs. Door B — the exit door (leave and build your own) vs. the build-inside door.

* Why demographics and the aging population is the real story, not AI.

* What, “having a career” means to Gen-Z and Millennials.

* The franchise industry as an unlikely case study in low-risk ownership

Enjoy.
