Coaching to Escape toxic workplace and reclaim success
Don't let a bad attitude ruin your life...
I wish this wasn’t my specialty, but it is—by default. Too often, a perfectly good job is ruined by a toxic work environment, a bad boss, or difficult coworkers. Sometimes, it’s just a matter of perspective; you're in the wrong place. Either way, these challenges can have a devastating impact on your career.
I’ve been on both sides: as a manager watching employees give up and as an employee losing faith in my employer. I’ve seen too many people waste their potential. Let’s make sure you’re not one of them
How it works
As your Career Coach, my approach is focused on understanding your needs and providing practical solutions.
1. We determine the problem and discuss options
2. Work on techniques to help you advocate for yourself, set goals, and list accomplishments
3. Build an entrepreneurial mindset that allows you to constructively assert your own needs at work
4. Develop a game plan to move forward

Career Progression in a Toxic Workplace
A Brave Move Toward Change
One of my clients—smart, capable, and deeply stuck—recently made a move that I think more of us should consider when navigating a toxic workplace.
They’re miserable at work. Not because they can’t do the job, or because the work is beneath them, but because the environment is petty. Cliquey. Small. The kind of workplace where politics matter more than progress, and where asking for clarity or connection is treated like a threat.
So they did something brave.
The Trap of Being the Best
In customer service, as in life, being the best doesn’t always get you ahead. More often, it gets you stuck.
You become the one who’s always put on the hardest shift. The one who fixes the messes, handles the angry customers, trains the new hires, and covers the short-staffed days. Everyone knows you’ll get it done—so no one asks if you want to do it anymore.
It’s flattering at first. But over time, that praise starts to feel like pressure. And then it becomes something else entirely: a prison.
When You’re the Only One Who’s Miserable at Work
When I started my last job, I had a clear idea of what I was there to do. I saw myself as an in-house consultant, the special projects guy—someone who could help solve problems and improve things. I assumed that’s why they hired me.
But when I started trying to have those conversations, no one seemed interested. I would bring up inefficiencies, point out opportunities for improvement, or try to tackle problems I thought needed solving. And every time, I was met with silence.
At first, I thought maybe they were afraid to acknowledge issues. Maybe they didn’t want to admit things weren’t working. Or maybe… they didn’t see a problem at all. Maybe I was the one who was out of place.
