Break Point

Author: Lauren McManamon Language: English Episodes: 100
Ever find yourself deep in a ServiceNow build or script, needing a moment to step back and think? That's the space where Break Point lives. Hosted by Senior Developer Advocate Lauren McManamon, this podcast feels like a series of insightful coffee chats with the very people shaping the platform and building careers on it. Conversations here move beyond dry documentation. Lauren sits down with ServiceNow product managers and developers to pull apart the nuances of new Now Platform features, but she also brings in customers to get real about the applications they've actually shipped. The discussions are grounded and practical, whether they're with interesting voices from across the ServiceNow ecosystem or professionals sharing tangible career advice for leveling up. It’s designed for admins, developers, and builders at any stage, offering a blend of technical depth and professional perspective. Tuning into this podcast provides a genuine pause to learn from others' experiences, making it a resource that feels both useful and refreshingly human. You'll come away from each episode with a clearer understanding of what's possible on the platform and perhaps a new idea for your own development path.
