S2 EP2: Doin' It Unequal - The Double Standard of Organizational Grace

Season 2 of What We Doin' kicks off with a question that's been bothering me for years: why do some people get grace at work and others get managed out? I've seen leaders with multiple HR complaints get executive coaches while employees dealing with crappy life events get countdown clocks to termination. Same company, different standards. In this episode, I break down the math organizations are doing behind closed doors, share real stories from my HR work, and explain why this double standard is costing companies more than they realize. It's time we talk about who really gets to be human at work.

1. Doin' It Slow: Impact Without the Overnight Fix

Starting a new role? The pressure to prove yourself can be loud, but moving too fast often backfires. In this episode of What We Doin’?, I break down how to pace your impact in those critical first 60, 90, and 180 days on the job. We’ll talk about why companies resist quick change (even when it’s needed), how to avoid being labeled the “know it all,” and three moves you can make in every role to build trust, credibility, and lasting influence.

11: What We Did

From sitting on the sidelines to finally getting in the game, Season 1 of What We Doin’? has been a journey of starting, stumbling, and still showing up. In this finale, I reflect on the lessons I’ve learned along the way: creating even when no one’s watching, finding joy in the process, and learning that progress doesn’t mean perfect. It means consistent, honest growth. I’m also giving you a glimpse of what’s next in Season 2, where the conversations begin to shift more toward the work I live every day. Leadership, culture, HR, authenticity, and the courage to keep building when the overnight fix doesn’t come. Season 1 is officially done. Season 2 is already rolling. Let’s keep growing, together.

10: Doin' it Anyway: Silence What "They Said"

When I first used Canva, it saved me. Then I heard someone I admired tear it apart, and I started to doubt myself. The same thing happens with AI today. In this episode of What We Doin’?, I share why it’s time to silence what “they said” and how to embrace new tools with clarity and courage.✨Follow and message letting me know what's some of your go to's or favorite new finds/tools you're using! @whatwedoinayeshia on IG.
