The podcast about the social hierarchies that keep white men in power positions at work, most of the rest of us out of them, and what we can do about it.
You feel robbed of your dignity, treading water from the shockwaves of abuse at work. You're stuck in a state of anger, ruminating about why and how you got here. You desperately want to move forward with your life.
Here you will find the validation and clarity to break free of your abuser's definition of you, heal from the trauma, and re-define your life on your own terms — and no one else's. Deb Falzoi will help you deeply understand workplace abuse so you can tap into your inner badass, screw the hierarchy, and define life on your own terms.

How far behind the U.S. when it comes to legislating workplace abuse
The U.S. is one of the last industrialized nations to address workplace bullying legally.

Here are three ways that you can take action TODAY:
1. Sign the petition: bit.ly/passDAWA

3. Testify on behalf of DAWA in Massachusetts on Tuesday, June 22, 10:30am ET. Sign-up to testify at bit.ly/DAWAtestifyMA (sign-up deadline: Wednesday, June 16 at 1:00pm ET). Get ready by joining our testimony training on Tuesday, June 15 at 7:00pm ET: bit.ly/getready615

How to cope with — and feel valued in — an oppressive culture

Opinion: I worry about the ability to inspire with demands for in-person work
Control doesn't breed trust or inspire. In fact. it reinforces a hierarchy and creates a culture of fear. Insisting on in-person work when it's not required for the job is one means of control. In this episode, I talk about a Washington Post opinion piece from a CEO who threatens her employees' status for not coming into the office. Luckily, her employees spoke up.

Hazing: one major sign of a toxic workplace or industry
When those who operate on ego look to build their base of followers, they often resort to looking for obedience. It's all about power and control for them. In this episode, I talk about grooming and hazing — tactics designed to test obedience — based on a target's story in the entertainment industry.
