Ever been punished for working too hard?
This is a true story of how a toxic boss fired me after I landed a huge client — just to save on commission… and how the company collapsed shortly after.

We break down:
✅ What jealous managers do
✅ Signs of toxic leadership
✅ How companies lose when they fire top performers
✅ Why YOU win when you walk away
✅ How to bounce back + rebuild stronger

This episode is for anyone dealing with:
– workplace drama
– toxic bosses
– being overlooked or pushed out
– corporate games
– insecurity + favoritism
– stolen credit
– layoffs + restructuring

If this is happening to you → You are NOT the problem.
Bet on yourself — and move toward places that actually value greatness.
