I Have So Much to Tell You About Toxic Coworkers...and Why We Keep Them

We've all had one. The coworker who makes Sunday nights feel sick. The one everybody dreads, who somehow never goes anywhere. But this episode isn't really about them. It's about the better question no one asks: why do companies let it happen?After a few real-life horror stories (yes, I went there), I get into the uncomfortable truth: leadership almost always has its reasons for looking the other way. Some sound perfectly practical, "they hold all the keys," "we don't have time to rehire." Some come down to a manager who just won't have the hard conversation. And then there's the reason nobody says out loud, the one that quietly keeps the wrong people in place far longer than they should be. I'll walk you through all of it.Then we get honest about what actually works, how this plays out differently in a giant corporation versus a small family business, what to do whether you're the boss or the one just surviving it, and how to tell the difference between a fight worth having and one that's futile. Because sometimes the most powerful move isn't staying. It's the door.Hit follow so you never miss an episode and share this with the coworker who needs to hear it. 🎧
