I used to keep quiet in meetings just to avoid drama, but looking back, that silence cost me opportunities. Now I try to speak up even when it feels risky. What’s something you wish you’d done differently while you were still in your toxic workplace?

I had the opposite experience I spoke up when I saw a risk or problem which cause me to be labels as a problem child. It cause a lot of “work trauma” so I wish I would have learned to stay in my lane earlier and how to be more persuasive, finding allies etc

Oh, no. That’s unfortunate. Either when a work place doesn’t encourage you to speak up or when you do and they consider it a problem, still toxic.

Always speak up

Thank you!
