The Boss Who Loved Broken Employees
Podcast: Workplace EntanglementPublished On: Mon Jan 05 2026
Description: The Boss Who Loved Broken Employees is a first-person account of a Scottish woman who slowly realizes her boss is most attentive when she is exhausted, overwhelmed, and vulnerable. What begins as mentorship and protection quietly transforms into dependency, control, and emotional captivity. The story exposes how power can hide behind praise, how resilience can be weaponized, and how burnout becomes a management strategy. This is not a story about overt abuse, but about subtle erosion—where support turns conditional and survival replaces ambition. It’s a portrait of a workplace that feeds on fragility and a woman who must reclaim herself before disappearing entirely.
