In this episode, we dive into what happens after you set boundaries at work and face retaliation. I break down the five crucial steps to handle workplace retaliation while maintaining your professionalism:

 

1. Let them react (and why this is crucial)

2. Learn how to feel bad (without letting it control you)

3. Take care of yourself (in healthy ways)

4. Show up professionally

5. Stay curious (even when it's hard)

 

I share a personal story about setting boundaries in a 12-hour meeting and handling the aftermath, plus practical examples of what retaliation might look like and how to address it constructively.
