You need to back off! That’s what I should’ve said. In my school era To the “friends” at school who would decide to not speak to me for days on end for no apparent reason. In my early working life To the workmates who convinced me that my promotion at work wasn’t based on my ability but actually how I looked in the clothes we sold. In my professional career To the workmate who convinced everyone in my team that I was working against them and made my workplace a nightmare. And the fellow leader who manipulated my managers to believe I was not committed or doing my job because they were threatened by my presence. And the narcissistic owner who created an environment so toxic I became physically unwell. In my parenting era To the Mums who thought I should be home with my kids and not working. And the workmates who resented me leaving early so I could attend kids' appointments. I’m so non-confrontational. And often believed what others thought of me was true.
