Power Talks Bullsh*t Walks
Mary Robbins
This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.
Nobody taught you the rules. That's not an accident.
While you were heads-down doing great work, someone took credit for your idea. While you waited your turn, someone less qualified got the promotion. There's an entire playbook of power moves being used around you every day — and nobody ever handed you a copy.
Until now.
Mary Robbins learned these lessons the brutal way — from cold London streets to watching her ideas get stolen in boardrooms. After discovering that the same tactics used by history's most ruthless leaders were being weaponized against women at work, she flipped the script.
Power Talks Bullsh*t Walks delivers 48 field-tested power plays for women navigating rigged workplaces, a framework for building a career-protecting power circle, and a breakdown of 11 workplace personas — from The Viper to The Silent Calculator — so you know exactly who you're dealing with and how to handle them.
This isn't a corporate manual from someone who's never been the only woman in the room. This is your smartest, most battle-tested friend finally telling you what's really going on.
You don't have to choose between being kind and being powerful. But first, you have to see the game.
You're not behind. You're about to get ahead.
