How are you doing today?
Just something a little out of the usual today. I have a question for you. 👀
Have you ever caught yourself becoming someone you’re not just to fit into what people expect of you?

Want to sit more with this thought? Then you’ll find this helpful.

HOT STUFF
We just finished talking about people who slide into your DMs on LinkedIn to “shoot their shots” 😂 and now we’re here???
This one actually crossed the line.
A woman shared how a founder asked her, during a business conversation, if she was a virgin. Omo, what the hell?!
Someone asked if she worked in a particular sector, and then said they allegedly had the exact same experience with the same founder.
But what really got me? Some people said she could have “played along” and used it to her advantage.
Please, I genuinely want to understand the flow. 😂 Go with the flow as in, “What are your plans for my body, sir?” Just asking because I’m lost.
How exactly do you play along when someone crosses a boundary that clearly?
She blocked him, deleted his number and moved on.
Anyway, I want to hear your thought. Have you experienced something inappropriate in a professional setting?
Tell us about it here, let’s gist…
