🎙️ Episode: How to Stay Resilient in a Toxic Workplace

Toxic workplaces can leave you feeling drained, disrespected, and disconnected—but you don’t have to lose yourself in the chaos. In this episode, we're diving deep into what it means to stay resilient when you're surrounded by gossip, manipulation, or poor leadership. Because the truth is, your peace is worth protecting.

Inspired by Michelle Obama’s words, “When they go low, we go high,” we unpack how you can rise above without falling apart. You’ll learn why toxic behavior takes such a toll on your mental and emotional health—and more importantly, how to keep your energy grounded and your values intact.

✨ In this episode, we explore:

• What defines a toxic workplace
• How toxicity affects your mindset and self-worth
• Why staying silent vs. speaking up comes with risk—and strategy
• How to confide in the right people without fuelling more drama
• Tools to help you stay calm, focused, and aligned with your truth

This is for anyone who has ever: ✔️ Walked on eggshells at work
✔️ Felt the emotional weight of dysfunction
✔️ Been labelled for calling out poor behavior
✔️ Needed a reminder of their worth and their power

You’ll also hear how documenting facts, setting boundaries, and choosing when not to react can actually be your greatest strength.

💭 Remember: you win when you stop playing their game. You win when you choose your response with intention, not emotion. And sometimes… you win by walking away with your head held high.

If this conversation resonates, I’d love to hear what part hit home for you.
