About this listen
Yes, it’s real. And yes, we’ve fired clients over it. In this episode, we get personal about what it means to have a No Assholes Policy, and why we don’t work with people who lead with hubris, ego, or disrespect. We talk about who gets forgiven (and who gets labeled “difficult”), how power protects bad behavior, and what it actually costs to keep toxic people around.
This isn’t just a rant (though there’s righteous rage involved). It’s a case for building cultures where respect, psychological safety, and accountability aren’t optional - whether you’re leading a team or just trying to survive one. Plus: who we do listen to, and how we keep ourselves in check, too.
