Sexual harassment in the workplace is more common than many people realise - and often more subtle than we expect.

In this powerful episode of Ella Podcasts, we have an honest and necessary conversation about workplace sexual harassment, professional boundaries, power dynamics, and what you can do if you experience inappropriate behaviour at work.

Our guests share real-world insights on how harassment can show up — from inappropriate comments and late-night “work” invitations to more covert forms of pressure and intimidation. We also discuss why women often face different risks in professional networking spaces, how to identify red flags early, and what practical steps you can take to protect yourself and your career.

This episode is about awareness, empowerment, and creating safer professional environments - without shame, silence, or self-blame.

If you’ve ever felt uncomfortable in a workplace situation but questioned whether it was “serious enough,” this conversation is for you.

🎯 Key Takeaways:

✔ Sexual harassment isn’t always obvious - trust your instincts
✔ Late-night “professional” invitations can be red flags
✔ Power dynamics make it harder to speak up - but documentation matters
✔ You are not overreacting for setting boundaries
✔ Developing resilience (“rhino skin”) should never mean tolerating misconduct
✔ Workplaces must create safer reporting systems and accountability

Sexual harassment affects confidence, careers, and mental wellbeing — but silence protects the wrong people.

Let’s keep the conversation going.
