This week on the breakthrough sessions podcast, I sit down with the powerful and insightful Mbali Mzinyane—a woman whose story and voice shed light on some of the darkest corners of the modern workplace. In this episode, we open up about workplace bullying, navigating toxic work environments, and the often-unspoken toll these experiences take on our mental health. Mbali shares her personal journey with honesty and strength, and we unpack what self-preservation looks like when your workplace becomes a battlefield. During our conversation, Mbali also references the book "Building Psychologically Safe Spaces: Safeguarding Your Workplace Against Bullying" by Dr. Ngao Motsei—a compelling read that unpacks the importance of creating healthier, more human-centered professional spaces. Be sure to grab your hands on a copy of that book! Whether you're currently in a difficult work situation or simply want to better understand the impact of workplace culture on wellbeing, this conversation is a must-listen!
