0:00 46:09

Work isn’t just “work” anymore—it's become the place where burnout brews and bad bosses break us.

In this fire-filled episode with Dr. Laura, we unpack the real cost of stress at work, what defines a truly toxic leader, and how to know when it’s not just you—it’s the system you’re stuck in. Spoiler: surviving a toxic boss isn't just possible—it's necessary.

We dive into:

What makes a boss toxic vs just difficult

Why stress isn't soft—it’s strategy

The burnout scale (and where you fall on it)

Why rest isn't lazy—it's survival

And how to get out of the damn cage

Whether you're quietly quitting or just questioning everything, this one’s for you.
