Not all support is supportive.
In this episode, we dig into how professional development like mentorship, coaching, and training can be misused as a tool for control, especially for Black professionals. What’s often framed as “growth” or “investment” can quickly turn into compliance culture, performance surveillance, and performative care.
We explore:
- The blurry line between support and supervision
- How race and power shape who gets real mentorship vs. forced coaching
- The emotional toll of “development” plans that feel more like disciplinary action
- Strategies for setting boundaries around help that isn’t really helpful
