Leaving a Toxic Workplace Doesn't Flip a Switch
Leaving is not always the end of the experience. A reflection on the aftermath of a toxic workplace and finding your way back to yourself.
Leaving a toxic workplace doesn't flip a switch.
Your body still flinches at a Slack ping.
You still rehearse conversations that will never happen.
You still wonder if you were the problem.
That's not weakness. That's what recovery looks like after corporate America taught you to override your own instincts.
You're not imagining it.
And you don't have to stay stuck in the aftermath.
You're Not Imagining It — Book 6 in Musings of a Recovering Executive — is for the people who got out and are still finding their way back to themselves.
