Welcome to Episode 32 of “The Empathic Leader” podcast with Dr. Melissa Robinson-Winemiller. In this solo episode, we dive deep into the realities of toxic work environments—what they actually are, how to recognize the signs early, and most importantly, what to do if you find yourself stuck in one.Too often, terms like “toxic workplace” or “gaslighting” are thrown around loosely, but here we take time to define what they truly mean. A toxic work culture isn’t just about having an annoying coworker or an inconvenient policy—it’s a long-term, ongoing environment that damages mental health, physical health, and even personal relationships. From leadership blind spots to cultural misalignment, Dr. Melissa unpacks how these dynamics take root, why they’re so dangerous, and how leaders can use empathy to break the cycle.Grab my #1 Amazon Bestselling Book “The Empathic Leader”: https://a.co/d/6mKtblASubscribe to the Show ► @theempathicleader Listen in any of your favorite podcast platform:► APPLE: https://podcasts.apple.com/ph/podcast/the-empathic-leader/id1796715528 ► SPOTIFY: https://open.spotify.com/show/6ChVQGgl5l1jqAfxdoR0EG?si=1wRZC3DbS9KvhLYTggkuhg► AMAZON: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/0158b2cb-7bec-4135-a2c0-2f594d21109b/the-empathic-leaderCONNECT WITH ME:► Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/empathyqueen.eq/ ► Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/eqviaempathy ► LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dr-melissa-a-robinson-winemiller-author-speaker-trainer/► About Dr. Robinson-Winemiller:What do empathy and a treadmill have in common?
