Ep 26: Respect Shouldn't Cost Your Voice

Doyin Abitoye, a HR professional, career coach and author of Shush!: Simple, Relatable Ways to Silence Limiting Beliefs, shares her journey from Nigeria to Canada, including the seven-year process of rebuilding her voice after arriving as a senior HR leader and being told she didn't have Canadian experience.She reflects on the cultural conditioning that teaches many immigrants to confuse silence with respect, walks through the four tools at the heart of her book—reflection, reframing, affirmations, and action—and unpacks the line between mindset work and the real systemic barriers immigrants face.Connect with Doyin:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/doyinabitoye/Website: doyinabitoye.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/coachdee_abitoye/
