Most high-achieving women were taught to over-deliver, not manage power. So when someone says “you need to manage up,” it can feel fake—or like you’re being asked to become a corporate robot.

But managing up isn’t flattery. It’s strategy.

In this episode, I break down how to manage up in a way that protects your energy, builds influence, and works with your neurodivergent brain (not against it).

🎧 In this episode:

• Why managing up feels fake (and why it’s not)
• What to do when your boss’s moods derail your week
• A low-effort update structure that calms chaos and builds trust
• The difference between managing up vs managing around

Whether your boss is chaotic, reactive, or actually toxic—this one’s for you.
