We’ve all had those moments at work—the ones that stick with us. The moments that taught us something about ourselves, our workplaces, or the way the world operates. Some are empowering, others infuriating, and a lot of them never get spoken aloud.
That’s where What Happened at Work comes in. We’re creating a space to share these stories—the ones that have been swallowed down, silenced, or dismissed in the hustle of the modern workplace.
Why share? Because your story matters. By speaking up, you help shine a light on what’s really happening at work, sparking the conversations we need to make things better. Whether it’s a quiet moment of triumph, a painful realization, or just something that left you wondering, “Did that really happen?”—we want to hear about it.
What we’re looking for:
- Stories that stayed with you—big or small, recent or from years ago.
- Moments that revealed something about workplace culture, for better or worse.
- Lessons learned, even if they weren’t what you expected.
- Experiences you are still stumped, frustrated or unresolved about.
How it works:
- Share your story anonymously or with your name—your choice.
- Your story might be featured in a podcast, live conversation, or visual project.
- We’ll always ask before following up or sharing it further.
What about NDAs or workplace silence rules?
We get it. We’re committed to honoring your boundaries. You can share as much or as little detail as you feel comfortable with. This is about your truth, told your way.
Ready to share?
Your story could be the spark that helps someone else feel seen, heard, or inspired to make a change.
Let’s talk about what happened at work.
