FAQ
-
What does Your Work Voice actually do?
I provide confidential, strategic support for employees navigating tough workplace situations — retaliation, write-ups, unfair treatment, toxic managers, confusing policies, denied leave, compensation issues, or simply wanting to advocate for yourself more effectively.
You get clarity, confidence, and a step-by-step plan tailored to your situation. -
Are you an attorney? Will you give me legal advice?
No. I’m not an attorney, and I don’t provide legal advice.
I do provide professional HR expertise, documentation strategy, support in preparing your side of the story, and guidance on when you may want to consult an attorney.
Think: the strategic “inside HR” support employees never get — ethically delivered, with your best interests at the center. -
