Ever felt depleted, disrespected, or invisible after a professional interaction? In this powerful and necessary episode of "It Begins Here," host Jillian Johnson dives into the real-world challenge of dealing with unprofessional collaborators who drain your energy and test your integrity.
Drawing from a raw, recent experience in her financial wellness firm, Simply J, Jillian breaks down the red flags of predatory behavior: lack of communication, chest-puffing ego, and over-analysis with under-delivery. She shares the emotional toll it takes and the crucial framework she uses to move from feelings of frustration and anger to empowered action.
This episode is a masterclass in setting fierce professional boundaries, recognizing that "it's just business" is a toxic, masculine mindset that ignores human emotion. Jillian makes a passionate case for balancing negativity with unwavering integrity, authentic collaboration, and radical self-love—proving that the most powerful business strategy is to remain human in an often impersonal world. Your journey to empowered, ethical entrepreneurship begins here.
Where love creates movement, and movement creates change.
