Being Ghosted: The Real Horror of 2025

It’s 2025 — and ghosting has gone professional. From clients who vanish after getting a proposal, to contractors who disappear mid-project, and collaborators who drop off without a word, we’re all haunted by the same modern nightmare: bad communication. In this episode, James Patrick dives into the spooky, hilarious, and painfully relatable world of ghosting in business. He shares dramatized stories of the vanishing client, the disappearing collaborator, and the contractor who seemed promising — all told with a sharp sense of humor and a dash of Halloween flair. But this isn’t just a vent session. Listeners will learn practical strategies for surviving ghosting, including how to set boundaries, follow up effectively, and even professionally resurrect conversations that seemed lost forever. Because in business — and in life — ghosts belong in stories, not in your inbox. Tune in, laugh at the absurdity, and discover how to turn the haunting of 2025 into clear, confident communication.
