We’re Adrienne Dorison and Emily Doyle, boss/employee turned bffs, and we’ve spent the last 5 years working with 1000s of entrepreneurs to transform their operations through efficiency. Along the way we’ve learned that too many businesses have cultures that suck and don’t even realize it!
DWW was born of the necessity to create space for bosses & team members alike to share their struggles, ask for advice, or blow off steam!
Join us every Tuesday for real-life horror stories and ideas to create more joyful, trusting, and engaging workplaces.

Welcome Back, Work Wives... do you have a minute?
After our episode last week, and some direct but honest conversations between us, we have a brief update on our plans for the Dear Work Wives podcast.
TLDR: We're taking a little pause. We're NOT done talking about toxic work cultures, but we need a breather to strategize how to have these conversations most effectively.
So we won't see you next Tuesday, but we'll be back!
In the meantime, be sure to submit all of your stories at www.dearworkwives.com!
