Show Notes

You’re the engine that keeps the company running—so why aren’t you in the cockpit? In this episode of THE TRIALS OF WOMAN, we expose "The Mid-Level Trap" and the secret metric high-level executives use to keep you stuck.

After 15 years in finance, Sarah discovered the "L-Factor": a secret spreadsheet ranking loyalty over competence. This is a factual, first-person narrative about strategic sabotage by a mentor and the moment a load-bearer decides to stop holding up someone else’s roof.
