Summary

Work makes up a large component of our lives. It's estimated that 1/3 of our waking lives will be spent working, so when that environment is toxic or harmful, it takes it's toll. Especially in our 20s, a toxic workplace can be quite a negative, formative experience and leave us with poor confidence, imposter syndrome and chronic burnout. In today's episode we discuss the psychological impact of bad jobs, including:

The burnout cycle
Psychological enmeshment with a workplace
Long term impact on self esteem and future employment
Tips for surviving a toxic workplace
Tips on how to thrive afterwards, despite the trauma

I also share my own lived experience with a toxic workplace and what I wish I'd known before. Listen now!
