Hosted by Christina Phillips, a former dancer, active mother, and passionate advocate, this show brings honest conversations to the questions most women are afraid to ask. From harassment to chronic stress, panic attacks, and being a working parent…no topic is off limits.
Each episode features Christina alongside a rotating team of attorneys and therapists who provide expert insight, legal clarity, and practical solutions. These conversations are sparked by real questions that women are asking online.
HR may seem like a safe place to report issues, but HR works for the company, not the employee. In this episode of Not in the Newsletter, Christina Phillips is joined by employment attorneys Katherine Kleyman and Brittany Stevens to break down what really happens when you go to HR and what employees need to understand before speaking up.
Through real legal insight and real-world scenarios, Christina Phillips, Katherine Kleyman, and Brittany Stevens unpack how HR processes, confidentiality limits, retaliation, and workplace power structures can impact your career. From what happens after you file a complaint to how documentation can protect you, this episode reveals what employees are rarely told and how to navigate situations where the system prioritizes the company over the individual.
Hosted by Christina Phillips, Dorina Cela, and Deirdre Arato, this episode explores why so many women stay silent, the real risks of reporting, and how power dynamics and past trauma can shape decisions in the moment. You’ll hear how workplace sexual harassment cases actually play out, what protections exist (and where they fall short), and how to navigate these situations with the right support—whether that’s legal guidance, therapy, or trusted allies.
