In this episode, we talk about how to negotiate with your boss to get the work-life arrangement that works for you. We all have work-life challenges but far too often we stay quiet and wait for solutions that never come. Speak up! Let them know your needs and get the work-life balance that works for you!

In this episode, we unpack the workplace phenomenon quiet quitting. What is it and why does it have so many people questioning long-help expectations about work? We’ll discuss what this means for you and your organization, along with solutions to foster an equitable work environment.
