Toxic workplaces don't always come with a warning sign. Sometimes it starts as a vibe you can't shake the anxiety before logging in, the shift in your spirit, the way your joy slowly disappears. And if you've ever had to question if you were the problem…this one's for you.In this CLASSIC episode, I catch up with Stephy Kiss for a real, unfiltered conversation about getting fired, letting go, and figuring out who you are when the dust settles. We talk about being scared to leave, staying too long, and what it takes to bounce back when your confidence has taken a hit.This ain't just about jobs—it's about choosing your peace. Period.

“Culture matters because people matter." —Jay Doran   Is your company culture silently working against you? You can have the best strategy, a killer product, and all the right hires—but if your culture is off, everything feels harder than it should be. You can't fake a healthy work environment, and deep down, your team knows when things feel transactional, unsafe, or hollow. If you've ever wondered why great people leave or why momentum stalls even when the numbers look good, this episode will hit home. Jay Doran is a culture consultant, speaker, and founder of Culture Matters. He's spent over a decade studying the invisible forces that shape how people show up, lead, and build inside organizations. From interviewing thought leaders to coaching companies on their “cultural DNA,” Jay brings a sharp lens and real-world insight into what it actually takes to create an environment where people thrive—and why most leaders get it wrong. Ready to find out what your business feels like from the inside out? Hit play for a raw, eye-opening convo on hiring misfires, founder blind spots, team trust issues, leadership energy, and why "culture" is way more than values on a wall.   Be Inspired! with Daniel:  Website (Makings of a Millionaire Mindset) Website (Daniel Gomez Global) Facebook Facebook Group X Instagram LinkedIn Pinterest YouTube Episode Highlights: 02:58 From Anxiety to Action 07:27 The Importance of Writing Down Goals 12:52 The Role of Culture in Business  17:22 Culture Starts from the Top 22:06 The Impact of Adversity on Leadership 33:03 The Role of Purpose in Business  40:19 The Role of Exposure in Growth 45:19 Life is About Experiencing It

Should he just care less about work?

Let's face it—hostile workplaces are more common than we care to admit. Whether it's passive-aggressive emails, micromanagement, gaslighting, or relentless pressure that crosses the line into emotional fatigue—these aren't just “bad days.” They're environments that chip away at your mental health. But here's the good news: you are not powerless. This isn't just about “getting through it.” It's about transforming how you show up—with boundaries, support, and a deep commitment to your own growth. By the end of this episode—and ideally by the end of the full program—we want you walking away with three superpowers: The confidence to protect your time and emotional energy. The tools to build support networks that lift you up. And the mindset to focus on your growth, not the toxicity around you. Because yes—you can thrive in difficult environments. And when you do, you become not just burnout-proof—but bulletproof.

McKinsey's recent firing of 10% of its workforce, openly blaming AI disruption, signals a profound shift that extends far beyond consultancies.This episode dives deep into how artificial intelligence is fundamentally altering employment prospects across all sectors. Bill Gates predicts 80% of job losses within a decade, making it essential to understand how these changes will affect your career trajectory—regardless of your industry or position. We explore practical ways to position yourself ahead of this technological wave rather than being swept away by it.The racial dimension of technological change cannot be ignored, as evidenced by Google's $50 million settlement for bias claims and a shocking LinkedIn experiment where a Black woman changed her profile picture to that of a white woman named "Emily"—immediately receiving interview opportunities previously denied to her. These revelations expose the systemic biases being encoded into the very algorithms meant to streamline hiring processes.For working parents, particularly mothers, the post-pandemic push to return to office-based work adds yet another layer of complexity in an already challenging economic environment. The dismantling of flexible working arrangements disproportionately impacts women who often serve as primary caregivers, forcing many skilled professionals out of the workforce entirely.From HMRC's plans to tax interest on savings accounts to the European pharmacy advantages discovered during a Paris trip, this episode offers practical insights for navigating financial challenges in what increasingly feels like a financial police state.

This week on Leadership is Feminine, Kris Plachy offers a candid exploration of the employee-employer dynamic—and the personal responsibility that comes with being part of any team. With her trademark clarity and insight, Kris challenges listeners to rethink what it truly means to be employed: It's not just about time—it's about delivering results. Through thoughtful reflection and real-world examples, Kris unpacks why understanding basic business principles is essential for anyone who wants to thrive at work. She reminds us that employment is a two-way agreement, one that requires alignment, accountability, and honest communication. “Employers pay employees for results, not time,” she explains, inviting us to reconsider how we show up in our roles and what we expect in return. Kris also takes a closer look at the emotional experience of work—highlighting the toll of staying in roles that no longer serve us. Rather than settling for misalignment, she encourages listeners to explore new paths with courage and clarity. As she reminds us, “There is always a next step forward if you choose to make it.” Whether you're an employee looking to better understand your role, or a leader wanting to foster more intentional, empowered teams, this episode is a wake-up call. Tune in to discover how taking ownership of your role in the workplace can lead to more satisfaction, stronger results, and a renewed sense of purpose. Key Takeaways From This Episode Understanding Employment Agreements: The importance of personal responsibility when accepting a job. Saying ‘Yes' is a Commitment: Emphasizing the seriousness of saying "yes" to a job and its expectations. Accountability in the Workplace: Misconception of accountability being a personal attack. Small Business Financial Insights: Explanation of how small business owners take risks and manage finances. Advice for Employees: A call for employees to take personal agency and make changes that align with their goals.

Send us a textEver felt like you're navigating a world that wasn't built for your success? This deeply personal episode unravels the complex journey of achieving professional excellence while wrestling with life's most challenging transitions.I'm celebrating passing an international certification with distinction – an achievement that came while balancing new motherhood, marriage, and career demands. This victory wasn't just academic; it represented overcoming postpartum depression, therapy struggles, and the persistent pressure to overachieve that many Black women know intimately. Your career can become a lifeline during periods of emotional displacement and loneliness, but there's danger in becoming defined solely by what you do professionally.The conversation expands beyond personal experience to examine how systems consistently cap Black success – whether through UK taxation policies that punish achievement, workplace cultures that view Black women as threats rather than assets, or the persistent colonial mindset that extracts value without giving credit. Drawing powerful parallels between personal career liberation and the broader decolonisation movements happening across Africa under leaders like Captain Ibrahim Traoré of Burkina Faso, we explore what true freedom looks like in both professional and global contexts.Throughout this episode, we discuss navigating environments not designed for your advancement: understanding organisational politics, recognising your value as a subject matter expert, creating leverage through continuous learning, knowing when to walk away, and strategically planning career moves without revealing all your cards. Whether you're feeling stuck, undervalued or simply seeking a more strategic approach to your professional life, this conversation offers both practical guidance and the emotional validation that your experiences are real.Sponsorships - Email me: hello@toyatalks.com Cc: toyawashington10@gmail.comTikTok: toya_washington Twitter: @toya_w (#ToyaTalksPodcast) Snapchat: @toyawashington Instagram: @toya_washington & @toya_talks www.toyatalks.comhttps://toyatalks.com/Music (Intro and Outro) Written and created by Nomadic Star

In this episode, Cindy Esliger discusses the cycle of unrealistic expectations and false promises that keeps us striving indefinitely. It's not just exhausting, it feeds into a culture that thrives on our self-doubt and overwork. We're left blaming ourselves instead of identifying the truth, which Cindy explains isn't us but the system that maintains control with ever-moving goalposts. How do we break free from this unending grind? Cindy tells us how to create an authentic and fulfilling career independent of other people's arbitrary standards. Cindy calls the coercive control loop of false promises ‘future faking'. It erodes our confidence and fosters burnout. Continuing to shift the goalposts is designed to keep us striving but never arriving. It's a demoralizing control tactic that is used to maintain control and keep us off-balance. When we let it get to us, we start doubting ourselves, which causes us to double down in effort. Cindy says the first step to stop playing the game is recognizing that we don't have to prove our worth, and the second step is to redefine what success means to us. There are three common patterns that prevent us from taking back our power. 1) Unrealistic expectations, 2) Invisible work, and 3) Toxic dynamics. When we can identify those patterns, we can see them for what they are and reclaim our confidence and agency. Cindy offers a roadmap for how to acknowledge future faking and stop internalizing the problem. With her guidance, we can shift the power dynamic and choose ourselves, our goals, our values, and our well-being instead of playing a rigged game.Resources discussed in this episode:Guide to Stop Hanging On To False PromisesAstronomic AudioConfidence Collective—Contact Cindy Esliger Career Confidence Coaching: website | instagram | facebook | linkedin | email

Hi friends, happy Wednesdsay! Back in the 1800s, matches were a huge deal. In the days before electricity, you needed matches to light your candles, your lamps, your stove so you could cook, and even your fireplace so you wouldn't freeze to death. Many considered matches to be *the most* important item in the home. But… ironically… the history of matches is *dark.* Making matches often led to slow, painful deaths. And workers who didn't die had to live with brutal, face-altering injuries for the rest of their lives. And, it led to a legendary strike that changed worker's rights forever.  I appreciate you for coming by, and tune in next week for more Dark History. Want some cool Bailey Merch?
