Unshakeable episodes

  • 96. Case Study: Winning Against Public Smearing: Turning public criticism or gossip into a career advantage.
    Welcome to "Unshakeable", the podcast that calls out workplace toxicity for what it is and teaches you how to come out on top, no matter what fresh nonsense your office throws at you. Today, we’re tackling a classic workplace weapon: public smearing. Whether it’s gossip in the breakroom, whispers in meetings, or a public takedown that leaves you reeling, smearing is one of the dirtiest tools in the toxic workplace playbook. And yet, somehow, it’s one of the most common. Why? Because it’s easy, it’s cheap, and if done right, it leaves the target—aka you—looking like the guilty party.

  • 95. Case Study: Counteracting Subtle Sabotage: Real-life examples of identifying and responding to undermining tactics.
    Welcome to another episode of "Unshakeable", the podcast that pulls no punches when it comes to exposing the ugly underbelly of workplace dysfunction. Today, we’re talking about a special brand of workplace misery: subtle sabotage. This isn’t the overt, in-your-face kind of toxicity. No screaming bosses or HR violations you can report with a tidy email. No, subtle sabotage is the whisper campaign, the tiny paper cuts, the slow, deliberate erosion of your credibility, confidence, and sanity. It’s the kind of stuff that makes you question whether you’re paranoid, even as the knife slides a little deeper into your back.

  • 94. Case Study: Battling Cliques in the Workplace: How to break into or dismantle toxic groups effectively.
    Welcome to "Unshakeable", the podcast that drags workplace toxicity into the daylight, sets it on fire, and roasts marshmallows over the flames. Today, we’re talking about cliques in the workplace. You know the type: the little tribes, the Mean Girls table of the corporate cafeteria, the self-appointed VIP section of the office that decides who’s in, who’s out, and who gets to breathe the rarefied air of their approval. It’s office politics with a high school twist, and it’s just as pathetic as it sounds. But make no mistake, these cliques are more than an annoyance—they’re toxic. They’ll suck the life out of your workplace faster than Karen from accounting can drain a bottle of boxed wine at a team-building event.

  • 93. Case Study: Surviving a Toxic Boss: Dissecting real-world strategies for managing and neutralizing overbearing leadership.
    Welcome to "Unshakeable", the podcast where we don’t sugarcoat the ugly truth about workplace toxicity. Today’s topic? Surviving a toxic boss. I’m talking about the micromanaging tyrants, the praise-hoarding egomaniacs, and the manipulation maestros who treat their team like disposable pawns in their corporate chess game. This is your ultimate guide to navigating the chaos, fighting back, and, when possible, outsmarting them at their own game.

You’re not here for warm fuzzies or kumbaya strategies. You want to know how to survive, thrive, and walk away with your sanity and career intact.

  • 91. Identifying Toxic-Free Workplaces: What to look for during interviews.
    Welcome back to "Unshakeable", the podcast that dares to say what you’re thinking but are too polite—or terrified—to say out loud. Today’s episode is all about finding a workplace that isn’t a swirling black hole of toxicity. Specifically, we’re diving into how to identify toxic-free workplaces before you sign your soul away during an interview. Because let’s face it: by the time you realize your new job is a one-way ticket to mental breakdown city, it’s already too late. You’re in the cult, and they’ve handed you your Kool-Aid. So, let’s learn how to spot the red flags—and maybe even a few green ones—before you get trapped.

  • 90. Becoming a Mentor: Guiding the next generation.
    Welcome to "Unshakeable", the podcast where we don’t sugarcoat the mess, especially when it comes to the workplace. Today, we’re diving into something that’s supposed to be noble, uplifting, and all-around inspiring: mentorship. Yes, that magical process where you take a bright-eyed, naive young professional under your wing and help them soar. Or, as it often plays out, where you get roped into babysitting someone who thinks success is going viral on TikTok and believes Excel is a relic from the Stone Age. Buckle up, because we’re about to dismantle the myth of mentorship, call out the nonsense, and—if we’re lucky—figure out how to actually do it without losing your sanity or dignity.

  • 89. Self-Care in a Toxic World: Staying healthy and sane.
    Welcome to "Unshakeable", the podcast that rips off the rose-colored glasses and forces you to look reality square in its smug little face. Today, we’re tackling something everyone loves to talk about but rarely does anything meaningful about: self-care. Specifically, self-care in a toxic world where “take a bubble bath” is treated as a cure-all for burnout and “just meditate” is whispered to you as you’re drowning in a sea of dysfunction. Let me be clear: self-care isn’t just face masks and scented candles. It’s war. It’s building a fortress around your mental and physical health in a world that’s determined to break you down, one passive-aggressive email at a time.

  • 88. Building a Legacy: Helping others avoid your struggles.
    Welcome to "Unshakeable", the podcast where we don’t sugarcoat, sidestep, or hand you a participation trophy. Today, we’re talking about legacies—not the kind you read about in glossy magazines, but the kind you leave behind in the real world. Specifically, we’re diving into "how to help others avoid the struggles you’ve endured". Think of it as paying it forward, but with a side of cynicism and a sharp elbow to anyone who deserves it. Because if there’s one thing I’ve learned, it’s that life is too short to let people repeat your mistakes when you can call them out before they dive headfirst into the same dumpster fire.

  • 87. Turning Toxicity Into Strength: Lessons from surviving.
    Welcome back to "Unshakeable", the podcast that holds up a mirror to the toxic chaos of modern workplaces and hands you a sledgehammer for good measure. Today, we’re flipping the script. We’re talking about how to take the poison of workplace toxicity and turn it into a cure—not for the workplace, because let’s be honest, most of them are beyond saving—but for yourself. This is about using the garbage they throw at you to build armor, tools, and if you’re ambitious, a bonfire for their BS. Buckle up, because this ride isn’t smooth, it isn’t polite, and it sure as hell isn’t sugar-coated.
