We need to talk about being a woman in corporate

As part of the lived experience series, Tas is getting candid about identity, life, and corporate culture. And episode two is all about being a woman in corporate. What is it actually like to be a woman in the corporate world in 2026? Have we made real progress, or are we still being held to unfair standards and judged on our personalities instead of the quality of our work? This one’s for anyone who’s ever been asked to take notes when it’s not their job. For anyone who is handed extra administrative tasks or social event planning before their male counterparts. For anyone who has had their success discredited because they’re one of the only women at the table. For anyone who has been given a hard time after mat leave. It’s still happening, and we need to talk about it. Expect real talk on: 🎙️ The feedback loop that disproportionately impacts women in corporate 🎙️ Real examples of everyday sexism faced by Tas across her career 🎙️ How to best understand the issues, so we can better protect ourselves. New episodes every Wednesday. Follow along to unpack the corporate rules nobody says out loud. P.S. my virtual masterclass, How to Unstick Your Career is available on demand now. In the 90-minute session, I’ll help you work through a practical framework to figure out what you actually want next, and how to move towards it intentionally.

What’s it actually like to be a brown woman in corporate?

What’s it actually like to be a brown woman in corporate? This week’s episode of Office Real Talk is a little different. As part of the lived experience series, Tas is getting candid about identity, life, and corporate culture. And episode one is all about race. What is it actually like to be an ethnic minority in the corporate world in 2026? From being held to different standards, to feeling like you have to work twice as hard to be taken seriously, to navigating the rise in racist rhetoric across the UK, this is a difficult conversation, but it’s one that needs having. So whether you’re part of a minority group yourself, and you want to learn more about navigating corporate when the system doesn't favour you (whatever your background), or you simply want to better understand the realities many people are navigating every day at work, I’d really encourage you to lean in and listen to this one. Expect real talk on: 🎙️ The emotional impact of navigating racism while trying to maintain professionalism 🎙️ The hidden, unpaid labour of DEI and belonging work 🎙️ Advice for protecting yourself, your confidence, and for navigating these environments If this episode makes even one person feel seen, validated, or less alone, then it was worth having the conversation.

Corporate burnout, the soft life, and quitting your job

The internet loves to sell women extreme career narratives. One minute it’s “girl boss harder”. The next it’s “quit your job, move abroad, and soft life your way through a Tuesday afternoon Pilates class”. But real life is usually way more nuanced than that. This week, Corporate Exec Tas gets honest about the reality behind corporate careers, entrepreneurship, burnout, financial independence, and the pressure women feel to build the “perfect” life online. Expect real talk on: 🎙️ Why corporate and entrepreneurship are both hard in completely different ways 🎙️ The danger of quitting your job without a plan 🎙️ Why burnout is often deeper than just workload New episodes every Wednesday.

Real talk: balancing ADHD and a corporate career

When most people picture ADHD, they probably don’t picture a successful woman in corporate leadership. But that’s exactly why so many people miss it. And why so many people don't know how to balance neurodiversity alongside a corporate career. Or why so many employees fail to show up to support neurodivergent team members. And if you dont have ADHD, you're probably already masking, balancing and navigating work despite struggles you may have. This week, Corporate Exec Tas opens up about her experience of ADHD in the corporate world. Expect real talk on: 🎙️ What ADHD can actually look like in high-performing corporate team members 🎙️ How ADHD can show up, and how the system fails team members with ADHD 🎙️ Whether to disclose it or not 🎙️ The frameworks and processes she now uses to work with her brain instead of against it - applicable if you have ADHD or not! New episodes every Wednesday. Follow to unpack the corporate rules nobody says out loud 🖤 P.S. On 28th May I'm holding a virtual masterclass, How to Unstick Your Career, where I'll be helping you work through a detailed, practical framework to getting to where you want to be.
