What happens when you outgrow the people around you?

In this episode, I talk with Lupita, who I’ve known for over six years, about how her approach to work and relationships has shifted since she first started her job. She shares what it was like to go from being involved in workplace drama to learning how to handle conflict, set boundaries, and keep her focus on her job. We talk about navigating friendships after a promotion, dealing with gossip, and why she’s learned to be okay with not everyone liking her.

You’ll Learn:

• Why you might feel inclined to engage in workplace drama
• How to identify areas of growth so you can be the solution and not the problem
• Tips on how to shift from being the gossiper to the leader
• How gossip can quietly damage trust, morale, and professional reputation
• Why setting boundaries between friendship and leadership matters
• The surprising link between personal maturity and handling workplace conflict
• What changes when you learn to bring problems to HR instead of fueling gossip
• How early life experiences and upbringing can influence work behavior
• The mental shift that happens when you accept not everyone will like you
• Why being professional doesn’t mean being cold or unfriendly
• How to turn workplace challenges into opportunities for self-awareness and growth
