The Book
F*CK YOUR
OFFICE SNACKS
Over 10,000 Copies SoldPing-pong tables aren't culture. Free snacks aren't culture. And leadership that forgets what it felt like to be led isn't leadership — it's just a title with good parking.
This no-filter wake-up call is for leaders who are done with the theater and ready to remember how people — including themselves — should actually be treated. Build workplaces people want to stay in. Start by remembering you're one of them.

The Show
NOT THE HR LADY
IS OUT OF OFFICE
Not the HR Lady is out of office and in workplaces around the world. Tara & Boggs talk to leaders who are changing the game in cities many of us use our PTO to visit.
Real conversations. Real workplaces. Real cities. No filters, no scripts — just what's actually happening on the ground.
Watch the SeriesLEAD ON SHORE.
CHANGE AT SEA.
The Transformation You Can't Get From a Conference Room
Twelve leaders. One Virgin Voyages ship. Zero corporate theater. You board a leader and step off a different one.
The SAIL Leadership Intensive isn't another retreat — it's four to five days at sea doing the real work, with people serious enough to leave their titles at the dock. This is executive development that actually transforms. And it fills fast — one voyage is already gone.
