She breaks down the real myths, the real facts, and the real strategy you need to stop guessing and start positioning yourself like the asset you are. This is not about begging for opportunities. This is about understanding your value, preparing strategically, protecting your energy, and taking control of your next move. If you are tired of being overlooked, underestimated, or underprepared, this episode will reset your mindset and your approach. No gaslighting. No corporate sugarcoating. Just real strategy from someone who has sat on both sides of the hiring table. Your career is not over. It is evolving. Let’s get you ready. [email protected]

 AI is no longer just in your software. It may be sitting on your employee’s face, watching, listening, and recording and depending on how it is used, it could create compliance violations or even felony level consequences. In this episode, your Savvy Savvy Sleuth Sheana Graham breaks down what Meta glasses and wearable AI mean for your workplace, your employees, and your legal risk. From Florida recording laws to employee relations and compliance, Sheana gives you the real talk HR leaders need before innovation turns into investigation. Because AI can be a smart strategy or a silent liability. Tune in, stay ahead, and Talk Savvy To Me. 

AI is making more HR decisions than ever.But in 2026, regulators are asking one uncomfortable question.Can your AI explain itself.States like New York are done playing. Local Law 144 now requires bias audits and disclosure for automated hiring tools. Translation. If your AI is a mystery, it is a liability.Transparency is no longer a nice to have. It is compliance.And if you are still saying “the system decided,” this episode is for you.

i got some tea. What if I told you your hiring software could be making decisions you never approved and putting your business at legal risk? In today’s episode, we unpack the bombshell case shaking HR and recruiting, the collective action lawsuit against Workday that alleges AI screening tools quietly filtered out candidates based on race, age, and disability before a human ever looked at their resume. Yes. Before. A. Human. If you use AI in hiring (or are thinking about it), this is your wake up call. We’re breaking down what really happened, why vendors are now in the legal hot seat, and what small businesses and HR leaders must do right now to protect themselves. Grab your coffee. Grab your notebook. This one matters. 

 Think it won’t happen to you? That’s what everyone says. ICE is actively auditing businesses, enforcement budgets are climbing, and fines are stacking up fast. In this episode, we talk I9 compliance, why inspections are surging, and how one small paperwork mistake can turn into thousands in penalties. But here’s the real kicker. If they walk in for I9s and notice missing FMLA posters, outdated signage, or sloppy onboarding, that fine is likely already on the way. I break down: • What inspectors are really looking for • How fines are calculated • Common I9 mistakes small businesses make • Why high turnover industries are being targeted • Simple steps to clean up your onboarding now We also cover how to streamline your hiring process, train your team properly, and use smarter systems so compliance does not become chaos. If you hire people, this episode is for you. Because compliance is cheaper than cleanup. Press play. 

 Onboarding isn’t just paperwork. It’s your first impression. In this episode, I break down why onboarding is the celebration it should be as you welcome your new employees on deck. How you welcome employees sets the tone for everything that follows. Engagement, retention, productivity. It starts on Day One. We talk real onboarding mistakes, simple wins, and how to get it right without breaking the bank. Plus, grab my free onboarding workbook so you can stop guessing and start building teams that stay. https://stan.store/savvyhrstudio/p/onboarding--the-first-30-matters
