Overcoming Workplace Bullying and Embracing Personal Power

The speaker shares their personal journey of dealing with workplace bullying, which led to their firing under allegations of 'theft of time'.

Diagnosed with complex PTSD in 2006, they gained what they describe as a 'superpower' that allows them to understand people’s communication, identifying body language and intentions effectively.

Despite expressing their concern to HR about the toxic work environment and trying to implement positive changes, the speaker faced harassment for speaking out. Reflecting on past traumas and drawing parallels with previous experiences in their personal life, they highlight how this diagnosis has increased their resilience and emotional intelligence. By reframing their firing as a resignation, they embrace the opportunity to pursue more fulfilling work that aligns with their values and skills.

The narrative concludes with reflections on power dynamics in the workplace and personal empowerment, urging others to prioritize emotional intelligence and empathy.
