Some kind words from early customers...
I worked with a small group of early access customers to make sure all of the content in the book was exactly what they needed. Hears what they had to say about the finished product.
"So reading your content feels like a breaking news segment titled: “Tonight at 6, why your toxic coworker is not a personality trait.” 😆"
"I’ve had the opportunity to work closely with Jody for many years on the production side, and Assured reflects exactly who she is as a leader. Jody is highly creative, deeply motivating, and exceptional at getting to the heart of a problem quickly—and solving it with clarity and confidence. She has a rare ability to cut through noise, elevate the people around her, and turn challenges into actionable solutions. This book distills the insight, authority, and practical wisdom I’ve seen her bring to real-world situations time and again"
"As a woman who has experienced disrespectful and uncomfortable circumstances with men and women over the years, Jody's vulnerable moments are relatable and a book you won't put down."
"I thought this book was super insightful for people in difficult situations at work, especially with toxic coworkers. My 22 year old self needed this book when I was lost navigating toxic coworkers."
"It provided clear information about a couple of concepts, giving practical example(s) about that same concepts. Good to know more about tha subjects, since I´m not an expert in that matters."
"In my first corporate job, I experienced significant gender inequity when a male peer with negative performance reviews received the same raise as I did despite my positive feedback, which altered my perception of the company though not my confidence. Later in my career, while hiring a subordinate, I discovered that my peers and I were being compensated at a level far below the appropriate salary range—comparable to the position reporting to me. When HR refused to disclose the correct salary band, I conducted my own investigation, gathering data from coworkers and other departments to prove we were underpaid by nearly $30,000. Despite advice from a friend to 'drop it' because I wouldn't get anywhere, I embarked on a mission to rectify the situation by presenting verified facts to my boss in regular meetings. Ultimately, my persistence paid off when my boss secured approval for a pay increase for the team, validating my belief that one must stand up for what is right."
