In this raw and courageous episode of Being Brown at Work Live, I sit down with the phenomenal Chenae Erkerd, also known as the Recruiter Cousin. We kick off a crucial two-part conversation focused on "Get Me Together!," a candid look at workplace trauma and its profound impact on our lives. Chenae bravely shares her personal journey through a toxic work environment, revealing the immense stress, burnout, and emotional toll that led her to a mental health leave of absence. We discuss the pervasive expectation for Black and Brown women to be "strong," even in the face of adversity, and the heartbreaking reality that this often leads to their pain being overlooked or misinterpreted as poor performance. This is a powerful, vulnerable conversation about: The reality of workplace trauma: How it can bleed into our personal lives and affect our mental health. The expectation of strength: Why the "strong Black woman" trope can be a heavy burden. The importance of feeling: We give you permission to feel your emotions, whether it's anger, frustration, or sadness, because your feelings are valid. The danger of losing your voice: How toxic environments can lead us to silence ourselves, and why reclaiming our voice is a powerful act of defiance. The "rite of passage" myth: We challenge the notion that enduring workplace trauma is a necessary part of the journey for Black women. This episode is a must-listen for anyone who has ever felt alone or misunderstood in a toxic workplace. It’s an honest, unfiltered conversation that validates your feelings and sets the stage for actionable strategies in Part 2. Join our free community!

In this impactful episode of Being Brown at Work Live, I sit down with the incredible Brandon William Jones, Founder & CEO of Gravy, to kick off a crucial conversation about something many of us are taught to shy away from: money and wealth. Brandon, with his stellar background in tech leadership and finance, challenges our traditional understanding of wealth, expanding it beyond just dollars to include health, a fulfilling life, and true freedom. He introduces the game-changing concept of detaching your time from your money, a powerful shift from the "good job" mentality of past generations to building sustainable assets for the future. We dive deep into: Redefining Wealth: It's more than just a savings account or 401k; it's about freedom and control. The Evolving Job Market: Why AI, layoffs, and a less secure job landscape make building wealth now more critical than ever. The Power of Ownership: Understanding how ownership of assets is at the core of true wealth building and tackling disparities. Beyond Salary: Brandon shares his invaluable personal experience with equity (RSUs) at top tech companies and how it can be a significant game-changer for high earners.
