Season 2 Remix: Likeability, The Bane Of Black Women at Work
Since I’m moving across the country and starting a new job, I’m giving you the best of season 2…edited by Chris. Great content, more entertaining.
This is Episode 4 from Season 2 titled F*ck Your Likeability: Just Be Your Black A$$ Self
In this episode, Tiffany and I discuss the hard reality that likeability and relatability at work is what gets you promoted and how being black and woman makes gaining likeability that much harder in white male-dominated corporate America.
Raise your hand if you are struggling or have struggled with likeability and relatability at work….struggled so much that you were passed over for promotion or you were pushed out of the company.
I would say this episode is for you, but it’s actually more for the companies and managers that need to, stop hating us, recognize us and set us up for success.

S3: Ep 52
In this episode, this is the second part of the conversation I had with one of my very accomplished mentors, Joanna Reddick. Joanna and I were having an impromptu mentoring chat. I had the great idea of pulling out the microphones to catch all the nuggets that Joanna was dropping. This conversation was so good, we had to put it in two parts. This is part 2.
