Professional Relationships After Divorce: Boundaries and Respect in the Workplace
Manage episode 518211917 series 3668923
Have you ever been talked over in a meeting, assigned work with no warning, or gotten that oh-so-lovely “Can you just help with this one little thing?” at 4:59 p.m.?
In this episode, I’m joined by Stacey, Diana, Marie, and Grace, all divorced Christian women who are navigating life post-divorce in the workplace. We’re diving deep into how to show up for yourself professionally without selling your soul or compromising your values.
What We Talked About:
- How divorce made us braver and more assertive at work
- Real-life stories of standing up to toxic bosses and winning (even if your hands are shaking the whole time)
- Tips for dealing with mansplaining, micromanagers, and Monday meetings
- Knowing when to speak up and when to let it go Elsa-style
- Creating unshakeable boundaries around your time, energy, and sanity
- How trauma triggers show up in the office, and how we’ve learned to manage them
- Why being a “dependable worker” doesn’t mean being everyone’s doormat
- Using body language and presence to command respect
- The sacred art of saying “no” without apologizing or over-explaining
- Gossip: How to shut it down without becoming the HR police
