1 年Extremely insightful episode! I have been contemplating how to frame my approach/experience with this (as I keep friends separate from work and it was painful to learn this lesson) for an upcoming panel I'm on, so it has been on my mind. I never considered the drivers for the recent push on "having friends" at work and really appreciate your insight that definitely rings true.

1 年Congratulations on Season 7! When Scott MacGregor had you speak with our group at The Outlier Project, I started listening (and learning) to #BrownTableTalk. Thank you for helping me be a better ally.
I really appreciate this episode. So much of what was shared resonates, especially about the emotional safety that comes with setting boundaries.
Excellent work
