Key Discussion Points:
00:55 Advocating for Yourself in Corporate: Surviving and navigating the corporate world can be incredibly taxing. You have to put yourself before the company you work at and advocate for yourself.
02:34 The Illusion of Corporate Necessity: Corporations will take care of themselves. You are not essential to their success.
08:03 The Work Family Myth: Your team at work is not your family. You can care about individuals as people, but this does not mean that your company is your family.
09:52 Taking Control of Your Life: You are in charge of your own life. Everything starts and ends with you.
In Summary: Lisa Hurley emphasizes the importance of self-advocacy and taking control of our lives in corporate spaces. She urges us to recognize our personal value and set boundaries to avoid burnout and lead a fulfilling professional life.
