Episode 2: I Didn’t Quit the Job… I Escaped It: Surviving a Toxic Workplace Culture

🧠 Burnout. Breakdown. Breakthrough.

In this raw and unfiltered episode of the Powerfully Broken Podcast, Joy Jackson shares her story of overcoming a toxic workplace where the pressure was high, the support was low, and the leadership was everything but kind.

Joy opens up about the emotional toll of working under a horrible boss, the internal conflict of wanting to stay loyal vs. choosing mental health, and the moment she realized: “I needed to choose peace.”
