Listen "Workplace Negativity "
Episode Synopsis
Workplace negativity is more than just gossip in the break room—it’s a culture of toxic attitudes, draining dynamics, and unproductive behaviors that impact your well-being inside and outside of work. In this episode of Lady and the Couch, we unpack what workplace negativity looks like, why it spreads, and how burnout (through Christina Maslach’s theory) often fuels the cycle. You’ll hear real-life examples of how negativity shows up in teams, the toll it takes on mental health and productivity, and the subtle ways we might even contribute without realizing it. Most importantly, we’ll cover practical strategies for protecting your peace—whether that means setting boundaries, shifting perspective, or building solution-focused connections. If you’ve ever left work feeling heavier than when you arrived, this episode is for you.
