- The #girlboss is dead. And with the likes of Meghan Markle & Elizabeth Holmes claiming the title, is it any wonder that, in less than a decade, #girlboss skyrocketed to the highest realms of social media, only to plummet face first onto the proverbial pavement of #lyfe? In this video, we briefly examine what caused this rapid fall from grace. Buckle up!

Your conclusion summed things up perfectly; a good boss is a good boss, a bad boss is a bad boss, gender is irrelevant.
100%
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Absolutely correct 👍
True that!!
Facts
Being powerful is like being a lady-if you have to say you are, you aren’t. - Margaret Thatcher
Brilliant
She was one strong leader @@vilma3502
Wow😯👏 classy woman
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I just mentioned her,
that is an excellent quote. Dumb question time, is it possible that missy meghan knew nothing about Margaret Thatcher?
She more like toxic boss. Her fake feminism is just another stepping stone for her. She only has love understanding and compassion for herself and sees other woman as the enemy.
Good perspective.
Agree! Toxic all the way around for sure!!
Rachel. Ragland used her sexuality to climb her ladder
As always excellent 🇫🇷

My mum worked for men her whole career until her boss was replaced two years before she retired, with a woman. This woman had to be seen to be above everyone and would take credit for my mum's work and undermine her. Retirement couldn't come soon enough.
15 years ago if I heard that something was racist or misogynistic I'd believe it unless I heard evidence to the contrary. These days I automatically assume the opposite unless I see evidence - most of the time those cards are pulled to deflect away from the real reason, making me very suspicious!
This is exactly what people of colour were afraid would happen. I cannot begin to tell you the amount of damage MMs false narrative if racism has done to those of us who genuinely experience it 😡
I had that same situation luckily I was old enough to retire I couldn’t wait to get out she was the most diabolical boss ever
I had a similar situation and it forced me to retire a few months earlier than I had planned.
The term "girl boss" grated on me from the first day I heard it... And then I saw WHO was using the term. Useless individuals like Markle telling the world how awesome they are without actually achieving anything of note.
Especially as it became a word not only to describe someone in the business world. Dating Woman who descripe themselves as this are from my experience extremly arrogant, toxic people and gell to be around. Often with no accountability or any kind of empathy. I think the worst I have met was someone who seems nice first but than on the date expected unreasonable behaviour like she wanted a servant was proud to tell she had... 20 guys in a night and called me insecure cause I had none of that behaviour and left.
MM talks up a great "Word Salad"........while bullying and belittling those around her 24/7
All the while Achieving NOTHING AT ALL
Like her husband promoting himself as a girl dad, but not promoting the same about being a boy dad
Trying to bring people to their knees to exert your power shows instability rather than strength.
I personally have worked in male dominated industries with no problems at all. I was promoted fairly and there was always respect shown. Of course there was banter but that’s human nature. I’ve found if you behave decently yourself, you are generally treated well.
I believe Megan’s screaming and shouting about equality has put the feminist movement back by years. Megan does not even like other women so I’m not sure why she always states she’s fighting for them. Other women like her do damage as well.
She's a bully not a boss.
A lot of feminists unfortunately use the accusations of discrimination as a weapon, and unfortunately many of them are the faces of feminism today, and it just invites more of those with the same mindset to get involved. Meanwhile this comes at the expense of everyone else, and the average woman is put in the position of not being trusted and having to work harder to earn their respect because of how these aggressive women running the show for selfish reasons are making it worse.
I agree, unfortunately I had a “girl boss” several years ago who was the worst boss I’ve ever had, and she was abusive to the staff that didn’t worship her. Most of the male bosses have been fair in their treatment of their employees, male and female. The bosses I have now are both females (boss for the program I work with and my nursing boss) are both great-
Everything she has was solely due to her riding on the backs of men!
@@jaimekennedy5750So true! Megsy is a parvenu!
She has degraded many words and phrases “Shine a light”, “Authentic”, “Inspirational” and “Girl Boss”.
'Sweet nod' 'whip smart' 'organic'
Layers
😂
Guttural, evolution/revolution/devolution (all used interchangeably).
Washing up liquid ads
Lens, seat at the table.
She's ruined so many concepts and words it's unbelievable!
Isn't it ironic that one word we all recognise now is 'Markled' 😅
I always play "MM Word Bingo Salad" .......its so Authentic 😅
The worst bosses I’ve ever had were women unfortunately they were tyrants I’m 70 and still shudder at the thoughts of them 🇦🇺
I am 70 and had the same experiences in my career. 😢
Couldn't agree more.... Was bullied emotionally and caused me a stressful life and encounter several health problem... Thank God and is healing and enjoying myself after retirement now ...
I hear you sister!
@@gayleberger5476
Same here 😢
I also dread whenever I get a woman for a boss. I have though had a couple of decent female bosses. The only time I ever got praise or raises, even the basic yearly raises were under male bosses. No lie.
When I attended university in 1990 I was a single mom with 4 kids. At one point they were all sick with measles - and I asked two of my professors if I could hand in my assignment on Monday rather than Friday after explaining the situation. The male professor said "no problem whatsoever" - the female said "no, you're just making excuses, get it in on Friday or you get a zero" - wow - what an eye opener that was!! I seriously thought she'd be more understanding...
"A tiger does not proclaim his tigritude, he pounces". In other words: a tiger does not stand in the forest and say: "I am a tiger". When you pass where the tiger has walked before, you see the skeleton of the duiker, you know that some tigritude has been emanated there.” - Wole Soyinka
This is such an important topic..."women power" has become very toxic. When you give someone power, they show you who they really are. Thank you, Pluto.
I wish the RF would allow H&M's ex-employees to talk about their bullying allegations. There is so much the public has not heard.
Yes👍 they have to be exposed
@@Anastasia-ex7iw I completely agree. 👍
They would not want the bad press attached to their name as it could impact on their careers in the future. Their names would always be associated with the scandal. When you work for royalty discretion is everything. I think the royal family compensated them in some way and they kept their good professional reputation.
@@valeriauk8158 I see. I do understand your point. Thanks for enlightening me.
They should be free to choose to talk about it though. If it would help them.
I was a “boss” for many years, but I preferred the term “manager”. It’s about following the Golden Rule: treat others as you wish to be treated. That would be with respect, honesty, fairness, and approachability. My teams greet me with warmth and friendship many years after they left my employ-going on to better things and growing to their fullest potential. Now that’s the opposite of being a “girl boss” which smacks of toxicity. Thank you for your video! I’m sure many people would want you to be their “boss” , manager, or leader!
Thank you, Pluto. It's about time someone said this, and you laid it out beautifully. I'm retired, in my 70s, with a terminal academic degree and a 5 decade professional career on my vitae. Throughout those years, some of the most obnoxious workplace bullies I've encountered have been women. What is missing today? HUMILITY. (And you've got it, sister!) Watching the prevailing 'feminist' social movement unfold, has been like watching a train wreck in slow motion. This, however, is a most refreshing and important podcast. I Must share!
On a different note, you look like a gorgeous Frida Kahlo muse. Your colouring and the blouse's colours are so rich and defined. Your hair style nailed it for me. Am I the only one?
Hope you take it as a compliment.
As I listen to your always insightful videos.
💙 From snowy Buffalo, NY 🦬🌨️❄️🥶
I just wanted to post the same comment! Love the Frida Kahlo look!! Great video as well. Spot on 👍🏼
Yes I was thinking the exact same thing. Fantastic content thank you
Except she has two eyebrows ;-)
Ok, I am officially up too late.
She's so very beautiful! Every time I watch this channel I can't help but muse; "Is she Greek? Turkish? Middle Eastern?"
I'm just dying to know the source of those fabulous genes (not to skip intelligence, poise, and excellent character).
Does anyone know where this beauty springs from??
I had a female manager bully me during a pregnancy at work. It is LAW in Canada to permit women to attend all doctor’s appointments during pregnancy, yet she continually berated me for needing to. Of course the main theme was “well, when I was pregnant…” comparisons. I don’t care if you pushed yourself to a dangerous limit, I’m not risking mine or my infant’s health. I took ONE sick day my entire pregnancy and she fought me on it. Thankfully, her supervisor was an amazing strong REAL boss who dealt with the situation with fairness and compassion. During a meeting of reprimand my manager sobbed crocodile tears like a victim apologizing to me in front of the supervisor. Embarrassing and I just sat there awkwardly.
You are very lucky Most stories like this end with I had to quit as they never backed down!!
Now the word authentic makes me shiver down my spine and whoever they says that they are authentic I will run away faster than anyone😂
Yes and "grass roots".
Abd organic 😡
I'm 54 years old. Those words are so common to me, there's no Meghan connection. Never heard her say grassroots, but my parents used to take my siblings and me to political fundraisers, and we got to volunteer if we wanted to, so I heard "grassroots" way back when Ronald Reagan was first running for President. The funny thing is maybe a decade ago, I heard "astroturfed" relating to politics, & had to listen carefully to learn that was fake grassroots. Like people from other states being paid to go protest in another state - and they were paid! Grassroots is organic. Meghan Markle is as far from real/authentic/grassroots as a person can be, from what I've observed. Her vocabulary is pretty limited. She picked up a few British sayings, remember she told Oprah "that's when the penny dropped!"
I know zero people in the US who say that :)
Markle pulled one of the biggest cons in the recent history. For the audience of one, she studied Harry and knows him
better then anyone else. She delivered and convinced Harry that "she and their unborn child are in danger" while allegations of her bullying were about to be exposed. A great enough distraction for Harry to get even more lost and confused. Markles probably expected RF to start defending her in public which they refused knowing exactly what happened and that there are - witnesses. Harry threw a tantrum
bul William had non of it and confronted the brother. Harry, in the meantime, already brainwashed and probably emotionally blackmailed by "on the kitchen floor" crying Markle, could not see the con she was pulling on him. The rest is history.
As a female CEO in an engineering organization, I can assure you that women don't use the term "girl boss" except to make fun of the 'Meghan's' of our worlds.
As a woman in a field that is probably 90% female, nursing, I had 1 absolutely phenomenal female boss and the remainder were just plain nasty, and thats over a 42 year career in nursing. The 2 male nurse bosses I worked under were clearly moved up because they were male, as neither was qualified to manage the hospital unit they were running, but they were at least pleasant to work for.
I finished my career with an early retirement over the most "girl boss" I had ever worked under. And she had no issues with me, but I could not handle the bullying handed out to my coworkers, which I objected to right to top hospital administration. I thought she would be the CNO of that hospital system someday as they kept promoting her, knowing her bitchy personality, but a larger system bought them out, and now she's not a big fish in a little pond, she's a little fish in a big pond, where you can choose from nice people with great managerial skills to run your departments.
I spent fifteen years training corporate managers. I knew many superb women managers - I was blessed with a few among my own managers. Not a #girlboss in the bunch. It crawled all over me in the early days of Meghan Markle’s tenure with the BRF that the British media described some of her truly heinous managerial behaviors as “American supervisory techniques”.
The funniest thing was Meghan saying that the BRF "Did not know what to do with strong women!" Um, which country had a great Queen for 70+ years? Which one had a female Prime Minister way back in the 1980s? I feel very confident that the family and the nations of the United Kingdom understood and largely appreciated truly strong women. Strength and bossiness (sp?) are not synonymous. Meghan is not powerful. Harry might beg to differ, but .. he's Harry.
@@griffinmathers929 And then, there’s Princess Anne…
@@griffinmathers929 Yes. How she could overlook the fact that she had landed in a place with many powerful female leaders is crazy. But she strikes me as someone who is ageist, so can't acknowledge OLDER women's successes.
@@griffinmathers929 she just wanted to be on the Throne and be #1
Thankgod she went back to America and what has she achieved there since she left the RF .......NOTHING AT ALL 😅
suffered under a toxic girl boss - years later I still feel used and unhappy about it
I have unfortunately worked under a few Managers (girl bosses) in my nursing career. Who have let their promotion go to their head and became bullies. I wasn’t bullied by them because I’m a strong person and would call them out but younger nurses suffered greatly .
I was a supervisor in my position and I used my power to teach and elevate everyone. They knew that they could ask me to help without fear
This “girl boss” is so childish. A woman working her way to an executive (boss) position doesn’t want to be known as a ‘girl boss’…..moreso she is an ‘executive’ a la boss.
I did the same and I had the best staff to work with.
I did the same. Leaders should elevate those around them and bring out the best in their team.
Best boss I ever had was a Romanian expat woman, 10 years my junior. Honest, direct, demanding but a great motivator and supporter.
The best bosses take the hurdles away for you to do your work as well as you can.
Also, don't confuse manager and leader. A manager makes sure things are done right. A leader makes sure the right things are done.
Absolutely agree with everything you’ve said in this video. The so-called girl bosses were definitely toxic and did not represent decent women. Totally agree that you can be a leader without having to tell people that you are, influencing with strength, fairness and integrity and not by denigrating others.
The graphics on your podcast is off the charts. Fresh and interesting. Also, if you have to announce your a girl boss, then you are not.
Very elegant. I am so encouraged by this young woman.
My work experience was in higher education at a university, and I can state honestly that every female “boss” I worked under treated me (and others under their supervision) abominably. They threw their weight around to remind us that they were in charge at every opportunity. I’m retired now, and I had nightmares for the first 2 years of my retirement because of these female tyrants.
Leader is not a synonym of boss. A boss is someone whose authority only comes from being the boss. A leader's authority is something else than rank.
I've had an interest in British history and royalty since childhood, so by the time Meghan came along my knowledge of the players and the inner workings was pretty extensive. I knew that not only was the monarchy bending over backwards to accommodate her but I also knew that the rate at which they were losing staff was indicative of a bigger problem and since that is a problem that has followed her to Archwell, we know it is the fact that Meghan Markle creates a toxic work environment.
The best lesson my mother gave me was to honor the women who had gone before me. The suffragettes, coming of the birth control pill, better working rights and pay, NOW, etc.. Some of these women lost their lives, for us, that we might have a better life.
I doubt it....they wanted us to feel guilty If you wouldn't take a ride on the feminism train...Being a mother at home taking care , raising and educating children.
@@lilofee27772No, you have no idea how few choices women, particularly working class women had in in 19th and early 20th centuries. Read some history! Most women were home makers, and happy to be so. However, not all were. Also, in those days if you were widowed and working class you most likely struggled to feed your family. Not many women had the opportunity of employment. Sure, cleaners and servants were in demand, but there wasn’t any childcare.
Can I also remind you that it’s a privilege to be a stay at home mother in the 21st century. Only relatively affluent families can afford that.
@@lilofee27772
Rubbish.
Nobody "wanted you to feel guilty.
Feminism was about CHOICE Dear.
They wanted everybody to be able to choose if they wanted a Career or have the choice to Do what they wanted.
Yr own insecurities not withstanding obvs 🙄😌🙏🏻🇬🇧
I think your point at the end here that if you are a strong, confident, mature person who can lead with humility and fairness then you definitely do not have to shout it from the rooftops is spot on. That is the best thing a young person, a young leader can learn. You don’t need a hashtag in your bio, in fact it only makes you look silly, immature and unprofessional.
I just love listening to you Pluto! Thank you for dropping more home truths!
Great video. Thank you for covering this topic. As a small business owner, I’ve always cringed at the phrase “girl boss” as it seemed to have a bit of a mean girl connotation from the start. To me at least. 😉
My girl boss was a mature woman who listened to her staff but took and used authority when it was needed addressing problems before they became large affecting everyone around them.
Did she call herself a girl?
Well done on another great video. I have never understood the whole “ I need to blow out your candle to make mine brighter.” I have been fortunate in my working career that consists of agriculture and mining that I always had great female mentors. A co-worker that grew into a friendship that consisted of a respected genuine caring and a place in my heart. Now I’m in my mid 50’s and it I always recall how these women made me feel when I was first starting out. I have always tried to put that light in my people I’m training, both male and female. Co-workers yound enough to be daughters and grand daughters that when I see them away from work, I get a hug. The whole GirlBoss trend gave insecure women a reason to be a private part. They are missing out in one of the best reasons to go to work. A solid workplace that even when the job sucks, you have each other to make it tolerable and there is always a laugh. I’ll take those kind of Ladies any day in my corner! I have lots!
Beautifully said. Thank you
Really nice comment. but I have to ask; I don’t suppose it’s avocados, that you are part of the business of? ❤
@@rachmunshine9474 I work in a potash mine in Saskatchewan Canada.
I dunno what a girlboss is, only what #girlpower is (thank you, spice girls). And you know who is the og girlpower? The Late Queen Elizabeth.
No, "woman power"
I was chef over 16 male electrians, but I never saw me either as a girl, being an adult woman, nor a boss. Yes, I decided where they had to, one has to do it. But when they came back and they had half an hour before end of the workday I send them home. On the other hand, if work took half an hour extra they didn't complain.
One hand washes the other 😊
You’re always so articulate and informed.👍😁
Your series is the absolute best comprehensive, evidence-based, historically-contextualized (versus salacious) critique of MM that I’ve ever seen. Thank you for your research; clear, effective and humanized presentation; and intelligent communication. Absolutely miss this kind of discourse in major current affairs. Thank you so much!!! #MilitaryOfficerExcellence
I had a woman boss back in 1977. I worked under her for 9 years and she was lovely. Very very good at her job and always there to help her staff when necessary. This *new idea* of women bosses has been put forward by these idiots who were never given discipline in schools and think they are mini gods! Bring back discipline in and out school. Let people lose at sports. Show them they can be valuable without being top all the time. Teach kindness not entitlement!
👍👍👍👍👍
Most of my experience,working with a woman boss I have found will throw you under the bus to protect themselves especially when they had messed up.
I got involved in the "Feminist Movement" in college, end of the 70s. Even then, I could observe the toxicity of some feminists. Out in the working world, one of my most challenging bosses was a woman. You hit the nail on the head in this video (Although you do that in each of your videos!!) WHEN will there be TRUE equality between the sexes- that is, you are a good employee- a bad employee; a good boss, a bad boss- REGARDLESS of gender??!
Brilliant, Pluto. You are a great role mdel. Very reassuring person. Blessings. G Ire
This is the third time I am asking, unfortunately without any response... Where and how is Leo, your sweet little cat??? 🐈
We appreciate your insights. Keep working hard.
Good morning! I look forward to your videos because you're the rare one that posts awesome videos in the middle of my night. ❤ Thank you
Living in Australia possibly helps with the middle of the night thing, but i take your point, Kimberly.
Anyone who can create unique content, and stand out among millions, definitely has a rare talent. Shout out to the wonderful Zac, too.
Cheers, Pluto. Love it. You always NAIL the music and atmosphere. I'd only put Ibble Dibble near you in that regard 🎉
New Zealand too?❤
Totally agree with you she’s a rare woman with her Intelligence and professional skills. As much as I enjoy her videos, I would listen to her all day long without getting bored!
My husband claims that the most "tyrannical bosses" he's ever suffered bullying/ oppression by, were always "girl bosses," NEVER men. Women tend to let power go to their head. I guess that's a form of self-preservation in a "man's world"😉🤷♀️
Excellent definition of Girl Boss‼️ Many people refuse to see the inherent toxicity in this term, which is disparaging to both men and women ‼️
I suffered serious harassment and worked in a toxic workplace twice in my career. Both occasions there were female managers. On both occasion’s after years of abuse and multiple staff and instances not being acknowledged, someone finally did listen and investigate and both managers were removed.
Wonderful! Having had the privilege of working under strong, trustworthy women-and the misfortune of working under inherently weak, hyper-competitive, self-centered women, I deeply appreciate your astute analysis. I tried to be the good boss and hope that I made women and men under me feel stronger, safer and braver because they worked with me.
I love the way you break things down and your explanations. Gorgeous blouse by the way.
When she opens her mouth I hear .." Blaaah..blaah..deee ..deee .blahhhh.. women of power...blahhh..deee doooo daaaaa. fall on floor and sob your heart out if you don't get your own way...bleeeee...dooo.bloooo...".. 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
@Zoro007 😂😂😂👍👍👍👏👏👏👋🕊🇨🇵
Thank you for saying this Pluto🌻All bosses, supervisors et al need to understand this topic. Successful leaders become successful IMO because they foster an environment of respect and the pursuit of excellence. People will stay at a lower paying job because they like where they work. How you are treated means a lot.
Once walked into the office of two staff members and found them slumped over their desks crying. When asked what was going on one of them said “Jerry Garcia died”. Grateful Dead🧸
Thank you for serving our country.
Always look forward to your videos 👍🏻😄👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I hear Girl Boss and my mind immediately thinks of MLMs. Those are the only people I've encountered that constantly use that term.
Your so right, girl boss is a rediculous label
Thanks Pluto for an inspirational video 💐
It’s funny cause I will never call myself a “girl boss” to me the word “woman” encompasses everything needed 😅
I had lots of male bosses some good some bad, I only worked for two women and the experience was not good, one was critical of all the women under her, the other was flirty with male colleagues and dismissed the women ,putting them down ,bullying and being down right nasty, I was glad when I retired.
Great Video. I have been in a career that is predominately male for over 30 years, and yes I have experienced what you discussed here personally. I also have to agree with the fact that one of my worst bosses was a woman, she was rude, demeaning, and verbally abusive, I also never got paid (I was a freelancer at the time). I recently worked with a toxic woman who had chased away two employees before I started, and was working on a third employee. It soon became clear that I was to be her fourth victim, luckily I was secure enough to walk away from the job. Six months later she was fired, and by claiming she was a victim, convinced the elderly residents to give her money because she couldn't find a job.
Thank you LBP for tackling another polarizing subject. The term "girl boss" always chaffed me, but I couldn't quite put my finger on "why". The term (to me) sounded childish. The women who were labelled this in photographs had an air of haughtiness about them and when they spoke they sounded petulant and obnoxious. When the word became the battle cry of the MLM leaders and their wannabe recruits, it became a red flag for me in terms of unsavoury character traits and people I wanted to avoid. Thank you for all the research and hard work you do on this channel. You are a refreshing voice of reason and a talented orator. Best wishes to you and your partner and cheers from Canada!
Thank you. Well worth listening to. 👍🏼
Thank you Pluto. Love your videos
Most of my best teachers, mentors and bosses have been women and they were wise, generous, supportive, empathetic and greatly inspiring ❤ and I am grateful for it
I'm 53 and have had many bosses over the years, quite a few of them excellent. The worst one was an absolute bit@#, very insecure in herself and took out her personal frustrations on me because she knew I was onto her bad behaviour and I didn't enable her. She was a nightmare to work for.
Being a horrible person and a bully doesn't make one aspirational, inspirational nor a role model. Markle doesn't want to know this.
Meghan had to bully her staff to convince herself that she had really made it, beacause being habitual liar she was not sure that she was not living in some kind of a concocted lie......ironically a bit like Alice down the rabbit hole...
💯🎯
Rachel bullies Everyone
Rachel bullies everyone including her husband who puts food on her table. I can’t imagine what she does to those children😢
"Power corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely?" As you spoke, I thought of the videos I have seen about female guards in concentration camps during Nuremburg trials.
A girl boss is never attractive when she is a pushy broad. As for the Harkles’ staff being demeaned & emotionally abused … when did Harry & his wife ever garner the professional experience to run an office or oversee a staff? Did they even know what they were doing or just winging it? It is too easy to blame others when one lacks the management skills and foresight. But when one’s staff has been screened by HR … then the onus is on the Harkles for lacking the business background to run & achieve their objectives. The Harkles were running a clandestine power play against the RF and relying on others to set up a separate enterprise (unknown to anyone except their US agents) who were awaiting their arrival to launch Sussex Royal. It’s no wonder they were deceiving staff as they had a hidden agenda. They are & still are parasitic sensationalists of the worst kind who prey on society’s lust for scandal so they could reap personal & financial benefits by using their Royal titles for themselves. From a very early age, Royal children are instilled with giving back to society and that by using the Royal title for themselves was unacceptable. Harry failed to educate MM on protocol and he was too weak to take on a pushy broad. Lying and too much hubris is never a good idea especially when the girl boss is caught.
I worked in IT in an area that at the time did not have many woman - desktop and system support. The best boss I ever had was ex-military, was a lot younger than me, and was brilliant. The worst I had was a woman who was hired as team leader while I was on maternity leave. I came back part-time and was trying to express milk at work, This was prior to these things often being considered in work place agreements. I ended up stopping because I literally was able to express half the amount of milk when she was in to when she wasn't. On the flip side, my second best boss was also a woman.
I was just about to leave the house when I noticed your channel popped up. You are always a MUST WATCH for me. Thank you for your excellent reporting 🙏
Another brilliant commentary! I agree, insecurity is at the heart of the behavior. I had a wonderful, inspirational boss at my last job before retiring. She is now my friend and I value her friendship dearly.
I have to say, I'm a feminist, but the most toxic boss I EVER had, the one that reduced me to walking out of my job one day and never going back, that drove me into not being able to set foot in an office ever since...was a woman boss.
She destroyed me psychologically to a point that I literally feared setting foot in an office going forward.
I still walk into offices now, smell them and it takes me back to that awful woman.
None of my male bosses EVER made me feel like that.
Love your videos ❤
Thank you for another thought-provoking and inspiring video.
I would like to take this opportunity to pivot off of your valid point, that the revolving door of employees reflects a lack of loyalty to the nasty ones, and point out the fact that none of the nanny, housekeeprs or other discarded and abused employees, have EVER broken the loyalty and revealed any information about the children in any way shape or form. I have serious issues with that incongruity of human nature. (There are no children)
Excellent as always.
All the girlbosses Ive worked with in real life have been lovely and professional and everyone enjoyed working for them. And yet they bear no resemblance to the 'girlboss' trope in popular media, which seem to be a grab-bag of traits that on their own are typically called 'toxic masculinity'... smh
Makes me question if 'toxic masculinity' has anything to do with masculinity at all.
That's because they were not 'girl bosses', just good bosses.
Ms. Markle claims to be a strong and independent woman. However, she has relied on men for everything in her life. It isn’t bad to rely on others, but she doesn’t acknowledge those who have supported her in life. Her father paid for her schooling, her ex husband helped her get acting jobs, and Prince Harry helped her get a title. She isn’t grateful to any of these men. When I heard she mailed her ex husband back the wedding ring to signal the divorce, I felt disgusted. She is the antithesis of a strong and independent woman.
Years ago I read a book called Good Bosses Do. Even though I was not in authorative position, it was a guideline as to what to look for in a boss and a personal guideline on how to act in the office. You are spot on as how a leader acts. I was also in the military and understand the ratio of men to women.
When I hear, "girl boss," I think of Multi Level Marketing," scams, which feel, and act, like cults. The term is intrinsically demeaning, and so is the experience! The polar opposite of what feminism, promised to deliver.
Leadership comes from positive internal strength.
Katie Davis Majors of Amazima in Uganda is the best boss example on the women's side. Much respect to this gentle, strong, wise, integral leader.
I am impressed with your channel because of your delivery on subject matters. Totally agree with the statement that If you're a leader you don't have to shove it down anyone's throat.. you just are..
Pluto, you look great today. That shirt is beautiful!❤
Nice ones. Like the analogy of bosses. I’ve been a boss many times in my life, and I never thought I was because I joined in, cleaning, etc, the whole lot.
Spot on Pluto❤
My boss is female, sooooo much younger than me and a proper leader. She is amazing.
Lovely blouse/shirt great look ✔️
Love your the video ❤❤
Pluto, I’m so impressed by your speaking ability and beauty I’m unable to read the comments while listening to your videos. I have to keep my eyes on the visual!I’m proud of you and what you’ve accomplished. Please accept this praise by a woman as old as your granny!
On the use of the word girl: unfortunately "girl" starts with a hard consonant, and therefore sounds more powerful than the word "woman" , and I think that's why people used it to express power. Most swear-words start and/or end with a hard consonant ... a "b" or a "t" or a "k" or a "p".
Girlboss sounds more powerful than Womanleader; that's just the way it is.
I applaud you, you’re an inspiration for all women, especially young women entering the workplace. 👏👍
Good analysis - thank you, Pluto!
The Post Office might be the biggest mail dominated industry.
I must say that the worst bully bosses in my life have all been women (I am a woman myself). We used to discuss with my co-workers whether this was because their mental health got ruined on their way up or if the system was built in a way that allowed only borderline psychopathic women to reach and hold a position of power.
