I noticed that most female bullies I met in my job life were older women (+10 years senior to me). Unattractive on the outside, insecure on the inside. Once a younger and maybe talented co-worker comes into the team they feel threatened that their experience and knowhow may no longer be the only source of wisdom in their department. Recently I had a "test day" in an office to get an impression what they do. The very unfriendly lady sat next to me when I was about to type something into the computer. I was mumbling something to myself and she very agressively repremanded me, "Could you also do that without babbling ?" She herself babbled when she was thinking about something but I got that shot right away...as a job candidate. Her colleague was just as bad. I was happy they showed their ugly behaviour right away....they then rejected me for the job and I was told from the boss it was "not a match on their side". Well, not on mine either. That was toxic beyond what is normal.

Midi Health changed my life!!

Leave asap. And report to hr immediately for records in case you file a lawsuit

This is every woman’s issue. This goes beyond the workplace. We have to have self-awareness and the ability to have difficult conversations. I saw this behavior in 2016 when Hillary Clinton ran for president . I saw it again in 2024 with Kamala Harris. We have to stand behind each other. We have to stand beside each other. We have to do better as women. I’m a girls girl. I also stand up for myself and have learned how to have difficult conversation conversations. I’ve had male bosses and female bosses who have acted out with bad behaviors. I currently have two female bosses. We have our challenges and we have our differences. I make every opportunity for our conversations to be productive and transparent. That’s what I bring to the table. As a woman, I am just as responsible as my leaders are. Let’s support each other. Let’s do better.

I have left a phd program and a wonderful job as well during my 5 years of hellish perimenopause. I have a new job now but I shouldn’t have had to suffer. Firstly understanding why you don’t have the energy and motivation and mental strength you used to have is challenge one. Then finding a treatment that works is the next problem and can take months! You can’t take 6 months off work while you find the right level of treatment such as HRT, so you have no choice but to leave. Doctors firstly don’t offer help and then are too cautious and controlling with dosing. I knew I needed a higher dose but it took months to actually get it 😱

I literally want to sell my property in downsize now but I have to wait what's for retirement. I am working what will go to my child what will come with me and what needs to be sold and given away.

She's a disgusting human. Stole the business from her brothers and parents.

Why are women bullying other women? Is it for the attention of a man? Seems it's always about a man. How pathetic.

The vast majority of divorces are initiated by wives. She will have ample time to plan how she'll use those assets she'll be given by the court. Even alimony etc is most often paid to the ex-wife not the ex-husband .

Great video

She gave me so much to think about. Thanks

Where l work, we recently received a memo that we all were able to leave early on the following Friday. We were advised to enlist, if we wished to be part of the skeleton group that would be responsible for staying on and manning the office till close of play. I did not enlist, as l'd been put down for it the time before. On the Friday in question, l was called an hour before the early leaving time and asked by a teammate if l knew that l was staying late for the skeleton force. I said no and that l already had a appointment. She told me that she was not aware that l didn't want to stay late. I asked her why l am the only employee who has to tell them that l DON'T want to stay late. She had no answer, but stormed off. I heard later that she actually asked a colleague if l'd done any work at all that day.

The BIGGEST LIE You've Been Told About Money is that it doesn't grow on TREES!!😂

The last time I tried to make an extra payment online towards my student loan principal, there was no longer an option. I called and was rold when I make rhe payment it will decide amongst all of the loans, and the interest only at this point. So basically i would no longer be able to pay extra towards the principal. Is this even legal?

Some women are ugly and they hate cute girls. Looks can be a double edge sword.

I can handle upfront direct to my face bullying & stand my ground but when it seems like psychological games or I was laughed at & called stupid bc I didn’t catch on & they enjoyed deceiving me….the aftermath stays with you too long…sometimes indefinitely….the feeling that someone you think is a friend (doesn’t even have to be a close friend) has been sneaky or deceiving & invades your privacy it just hurts & feels so intensely Humiliating & it breaks your trust in people even when you forgive bc you think you may have misunderstood some things or you may have unknowingly hurt them you still become paranoid thinking it’s a few in the office out to get you & you continue to feel triggered & overthinking starts up again…it’s HELL then bc now you really feel on the outside….

Everything has gotten worse after 2020 including workplaces.

I’m always inspired by her perspective!

WHO said that life expectancy is 73. Meanwhile, in the US, expets are advocating collecting SS at 70 and avoiding RMD at 75. 🤔

Thank you from Switzerland. Very nice interview, well structured and conducted. I've been decluttering most of my life as I have moved a lot and don't like to carry stuff I don't like (no paid movers for 95% of those moves). At 54, it started to become even more important to me than before, to very seriously curb the semi-unconscious bringing in of new things to "perfect" the new places, after letting go of things that didn't work or fit. At 56 now, I'm officially doing a full "no/low-buy year", spending money almost only on experiences instead of things (l'm lucky to be able to choose that). This conversation has added some new ways for me to look at curating and decluttering my home. I appreciate that very much. You're both wonderful ladies and I love the way you thoughtfully and full of caring and kindness presented this subject.

Ty🫶🏻

Thanks for a great conversation!

We need to use the term neoliberalism when referring to these economic policies. Both Republicans and Democrats have signed on to this economic system.

Especially in nursing certain clique .. they are awful

Exactly why I had a breakdown in the first place and never want to work again for as long as I live.

As the only male in an office of female nurses I was attacked bullied harassed HR were females my manager and her manager so my anxiety was through the roof my only male supervisor was a booty kisser to them, and his manager be upset with him as well, toxic work force and the job before this last one was not like this. The drama and gossip is just not needed there is more than enough stress handling patients especially with doctors changing there schedules all the time, overbooked, and delayed appointments going out months without resolve, managements answer to this was DEAL WITH IT 😢. HR lady called me week before Christmas terminated over the phone. MOVING on. 😊

I agree, the change in tax code makes people. no longer give money. Thanks for this info today.

Yes, I worked briefly at ACE Hardware Store with mostly men. It was so damn refreshing. The guys were great with me. The few women that were there had issues with me.

Paul I’m so pleased to hear this news Sending much love to you and Caroline from Canada❤️❤️❤️❤️

Powerful message 👌🏽

Wow! What an impactful interview! Thank you for sharing this wonderful wisdom on this platform. Mellody is a blessing to so many!

Thank u for this educational video ❤

Say it again for those who are blissfully ignorant. I've always told my daughter to have her own career and money!

Even though this is a timely topic, women keep being "mean girls." They won't stop.

WW you need to work on this. You are awful to each other and even worse to WOC. Do better.

Her “baby girl”voice is very grating

When you're a woman of a certain age, you don't have many options.

Everywhere I’ve been in life I’ve encountered a mean girl who takes advantage of kindness and treats everyone like their underlings , I still don’t know how to deal with them soo I eventually leave

❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

retirement planning vs declining faculties

Wow. My good comment got lost. -- Anyway, I paid off all my loans by going to the bank and pay off the loan directly into the loan at the teller.

You go to the bank, write the Loan number on the back of your check to the lender and PAY IT AT THE TELLER into your loan. Get a receipt as proof that you paid your hard-earned money against your loan. -- I paid off all my loans in SPEEDY GONZALES fashion against my loans. == Don't make the banks rich. I'm debt-free. I have a good credit rating. I don't even spend cash from my wallet. I walk with twenty bucks in my wallet and there is no reason to spend it. I ride my bicycle and enjoy life. Why waste money unless you pay it into debt. -- Make sure u pay your debt ON TIME, PUNCTUALLY, so ur credit rating sticks around and u get the best interest rate. Good luck.

Great interview. My first time viewing this channel. 💜 so much respect for Mrs. Mellody.

Ive worked in the field for a long time. Its women like me who paved the way for the others. For decades, there were few women in industrial occupations, or commercial driving, so the mean girl thing was rare. Just my opinion here, but up until Title Nine, which supported athletics for girls, girls didnt participate in team sports. They never learned to work with teammates and put aside personal beefs. So, female management might have a "clique" of favored employees and shut others out. Men, especially have been victims of this prejudice. Think eighth grade, and the group of "cool girls", the rest of us called "the herd" And then theres the underhanded, passive aggressive remarks. Honestly Ive only met one women worthy of being good management. Someday that will change. Title Nine has had a beneficial effect on our girls. Competition is good for success. Teamwork wins ballgames. Working for the collective is a skill the ladies are starting to learn. Generally, i do well with male management, in a union shop. They are direct, and i know right where i stand. Private industry are the worst offenders, without a union to keep things fair. I simply wouldnt work for private industry. Im retired now, something that wouldnt have been possible in a non union workplace. Sorry people, it is what it is.

I listened to the book and have been engaged in it for several months. It really has been helpful to declutter and to reduce, as I reflect and be mindful of what I'm leaving behind for my family and partner.

I’ve wondered this too and the concern I have going with someone not associated with a large company is the fiduciary might mismanage or even steal money they are supposed to manage. If someone worked for a large company and did this, I assume the company would make everything right. I tell myself this is probably nonsense, but it is the thing that holds me back. And I know big companies likely won’t have my best interest as their top priority.

There are women who have education and credentials, but choose to stay home with their kids when they are little. While I agree with the idea that you need to be prepared for being single at any point, you know nothing about the woman in the original video. Don't be that judgey.

Also 80% of divorces are initiated by women, so if you end up needing this advice to bad so sad. Don’t get married men ain’t worth it

You do realize that this is a prank, riiite???? A man is a solid financial plan in this day and age, as "she" gets everything after divorce. I can't believe i have to say that again. You boomer are so old and out of touch with the real world. The point of the prank is, she doesn't spend HER income! She spends his and hers!

Them: you can’t sit with us! 😑 Me: I don’t want to. 🥱 Them: 😲😵🥴😮‍💨🫠😶‍🌫️
