About this listen

In this powerful first episode of Exposing Workplace Bullying, host Dr. Jan Kircher—founder of Stop Bully Culture—pulls back the curtain on the harsh realities of workplace abuse. Drawing from her own experience as a social work professor and single mother, Jan reveals how conventional advice like “report the bully” or “trust the process” often backfires, leaving people unprotected and alone.

With staggering stats—30% of U.S. workers report being bullied, 61% of bullies are bosses, and 45% of victims suffer mental health impacts—she exposes how bullying is often legal, ignored, or even rewarded in U.S. workplaces.

Jan shares the painful truth about institutional betrayal, the toll of long-term abuse, and the one moment when things finally began to shift. This episode is for anyone wondering, “Is this really happening?” or trying to survive a toxic work culture that won’t change.

🎧 Listen for real talk, raw stories, and strategies that don’t gaslight you.
