Manage episode 489509040 series 1525717
They say you don’t quit jobs—you quit managers. I’ve had a toxic boss whose explosive anger left me shaking on the commute home. Sadly, Helen faced a similar situation. But unlike me, she found her voice—and a smart, strategic way out.
In this episode, Helen shares how she stood up to a workplace bully and rewrote her own story. We also dive into her incredible career pivot from translator to instructional designer, what she loves about her work, and why she made the move from the UK to the US.
Tune in to hear Helen’s inspiring career and money journey.
