    The Toxicity of the Tone Policing on Black Women in the workplace.

    In this Podcast, I talk about the toxicity of tone policing in the Workplace and it’s link to White Fragility.  The burden it places on people of color to self police how they speak out when they are being harmed. I also discuss the additional burden that is placed on Black people to assure White liberals that they don’t think they are racist. Because White liberals often equate racism with extremist racist people. I make a point that it is natural for any white people to have racial prejudice against black people because of white supremist/colonial conditioning.  I make reference to the fact that I myself am homophobic and fat phobic not because I hate queer people or fat people of which I fall in the scale but because I am a product of a society that taught me that.   See below for more information on the services we offer:   Link to the 5 day Live Your Soul-Crushing Job Challenge https://blackwomenintheworkplace.com/events/  Sign-up Online Coaching Programme  https://blackwomenintheworkplace.com/online-coaching/  Join Private Coaching Program: Pushing Your Career Journey Further https://blackwomenintheworkplace.com/coaching/ For all my services: https://linktr.ee/Blackwomenintheworkplace Join The Community of Black Women in The Workplace: https://www.facebook.com/groups/2295871547186080/  #job#jobs#careeradvice #careercoach #careers #career #blackwoman #black #blackwomenatwork #coaches #coaching #blackexcellence #blackedition #personaldevelopment #career

    How Liberal White People's ways of being harmful to Black Women in the Workplace.

    In this Podcast, I talk about how white people who see themselves as non-racist, as people who don’t see colour are oblivious to the ways they continue to harm black people both emotionally and financially, especially when they are in a position of power.  I don't believe in binary thinking, so I don't believe that white people are other good or bad. There are good, liberal white people who don't want to be racist and mean well, AND because of their colonial heritage, have to acknowledge that they are conditioned to be act in ways that are harmful to black people, albeit unintentional. I  recommend that white people do their work of engaging with the guilt and shame of coming from a lineage of Colonizers and how that has shaped their worldview and specifically how they view black people and people of color.   This podcast is linked to the podcast - White Fragility https://youtu.be/mca2PFqQ8jo https://youtu.be/b5VOJc0PK6Y     The corporate white man archetype in the Workplace  https://youtu.be/XR6J7IOtMyo https://youtu.be/ltWDycFJ6JM  See below for more information on the services we offer:   Sign-up Online Coaching Programme  https://blackwomenintheworkplace.com/online-coaching/  Join Private Coaching Program: Pushing Your Career Journey Further https://blackwomenintheworkplace.com/coaching/ Create The Job You Really Want.  Download this FREE Career Roadmap Journal. https://blackwomenintheworkplace.ck.page/d0d516aa48  For all my services: https://linktr.ee/Blackwomenintheworkplace Join The Community of Black Women in The Workplace: https://www.facebook.com/groups/2295871547186080/  #job#jobs#careeradvice #careercoach #careers #career #blackwoman #black #blackwomenatwork #coaches #coaching #blackexcellence #blackedition #personaldevelopment#career
