Horrible Bosses

Horrible bosses, gender and racial discrimination sometimes happen to the best of us.

A client, an internationally recognized thought leader in her field, has been reprimanded by her supervisor as "difficult" and "unlikeable," because she refused to sign off on the boss' maneuver that she deemed unethical.

😠

An expert management consultant told me about the time she went to a corporate client's offices to present her study, when she was stopped by a man who pointed at his coffee cup and said, "Hey, did you know that the milk went bad?"

🤬

It sucks.

Being gaslit, under-estimated, unfairly criticized and lowballed -- it happens to the powerhouse women I know.

And I know you Jamie, have a story or dozen to share about experiences like theses.

Here's the thing.

The capacity to not crumble in the face of injustice is a SKILL you can learn.

It takes strength to NOT doubt yourself and make you wrong, because toxic workplaces have wronged you.

And that strength is built through practice.

The practice of building a relationship with yourself that's stronger than anyone else's narrow, misguided opinion of you.

The practice of honoring your truth and sticking to your convictions -- whether that is to vote with your feet, to stay grounded in your value, or to take up the fight against injustice even when it's scary AF.

This practice is exactly what my LinkedIn Live The Feminist Cure for Self-Doubt is about.

I'll be walking you through a simple 4-step process that you can implement any time

So you can strengthen the inner "muscle" of having your back, taking up space as the smart, competent woman professional that you are -- no matter who's being wrong about you.

See you there!

P.S. You'll be able to catch the replay on LinkedIn. You'll learn neuroscience-backed, actionable tools that work for women as well as non-binary and gender-nonconforming folks who've been socialized as women.

P.P.S. If you're wondering what happened to my amazing client who was told she's too "difficult and unlikeable," she's now fielding invitations from world-class organizations for her to build whole departments from the ground-up.
