“If you stay in toxic circumstances or situations and either attempt to somehow make it work, avoid the conflict, or start blaming yourself… all of these are signs that you've had trauma.” –Blake Schofield
-
“It can become easy to get into a culture where people complain about work or complain about coworkers. All that does is create more toxicity.” –Blake Schofield
-
“When you value yourself, understand those healthy communication styles and how to vet leadership and organizations in a way that is supportive and aligned with that, you will no longer continue to suffer these issues.” –Blake Schofield

“There are healthy companies and there are toxic companies. There are companies who really empower people to learn how to collaborate, resolve conflict, and work together, and there are companies that do the opposite. Fear-based companies only care about how you perform. They don't care about what that environment actually looks like for their employees.” –Blake Schofield
