This conversation explores workplace bullying through a lens that goes far deeper than behavior. We examine the physiology of harm, the nervous system impact of chronic workplace stress, and how leadership either contributes to trauma or actively prevents it.
Liza Collins is a trauma preventative leadership coach, consultant, and number one best selling author of The Physiology of Bullying. With more than three decades of experience across healthcare systems in the UK and internationally, her work bridges lived experience, neuroscience, and relational leadership practice.
In this episode, we explore:
• What chronic workplace harm does to the nervous system
• How bullying reshapes identity, health, and self trust
• The difference between surviving a toxic system and restoring agency
• Why leadership responsibility extends beyond performance metrics
• What trauma preventative leadership actually looks like in practice
This conversation moves beyond surface level discussions about difficult personalities. It addresses power, safety, and the biological cost of sustained psychological threat.
For anyone navigating workplace harm, leading teams, or building cultures of psychological safety, this episode offers insight, clarity, and grounded perspective.
