How to Hold Your Boss Accountable, Stop Working Late, and Negotiate Like a Pro
If your boss keeps shifting expectations, your evenings are swallowed by unpaid overtime, or you’re too nervous to push for a higher salary, this episode is your toolkit for taking back control.
Izzy tackles four career-defining dilemmas head-on:
* Moving Goalposts: How to lock down agreements in writing so shifting targets can’t derail you — and when to escalate with evidence.
* Chronic Late Nights: How to set boundaries, get work done in reasonable hours, and stop equating “longer” with “better.”
* Salary Negotiation Masterclass: Scripts and strategies to position yourself at the top of the pay range, handle pushback, and negotiate benefits that boost your total package.
* Post-Interview Power Moves: The follow-up tactics most candidates skip that keep you front-of-mind with hiring managers.
Plus, in Corporate Confessionals, a listener’s holiday horror story sparks a conversation on boundaries early in your career, and Producer Georgia brings audience questions on insecure managers, fear of failing in a new role, and moving from mid-level to senior without imposter syndrome.
Whether you’re fighting scope creep, gunning for a pay rise, or plotting your next big move, you’ll leave this episode knowing exactly how to protect your time, your sanity, and your salary.
