Amanda’s overseers analogy was 🤌🏼 “Take your mental health day - at work.” Really Erin? 😅 “America is a business...” Terrible, but not wrong. This was great. 😂😂😂 We needed some levity. Thank you.
This right here is what I live everyday. It is a hilarious but sadly accurate portrayal of people trying to assimilate into a system that never intended to include them in the first place.I am not Stepin’ Fechit which is exactly who we are expected to be which is why I am creating my exit plan. In 35 years of being in corporate, I have seen the same things repeated with different people playing the same roles. God bless you Amanda. ALL of your haters are living in darkness and your light and love is disrupting to their false sense of comfort.
Listen!!! Working as an Analyst and previously in leadership in corporate I HAVE TO SAY the level of accuracy and fulfillment with laughter was so needed. 😂😂😂
I love this but its hitting too close to home. I work with these people. Ive seen someone go from normal and then transfer into this person. Im here for this conversation
Oh my God...she said "mental health day at work" my stomach dropped and i hollered....lmao Amanda, you described it perfectly..im triggered by how validated i feel hearing from Corporate Erin here lol
This was great. (Hard swallows) I’m going to circle back and take this conversation offline with my sister because I think she will get great valuuuueee from this and use the feedback from corporate Erin, (hard swallow) as she looks for her next role in corporate. 😂😂😂
Been a fan of Amanda and this show… but this episode was GOLD! Shoutout to Corporate Erin for slipping in some GEMS alongside the sarcasm. This was perfect for my intellectual and sarcastic ass. Lol thanks ladies 💓
Corporate Erin is so brilliant! She’s been pivotal to my laughter for weeks! This was so fun to watch I’m going to circle back. Perfect collaboration! Let’s create an agenda to revisit this pivotal high level conversation in Q2 to close the loop.😂💛 (This was seriously a joy to watch!)
I’m just glad Corporate Erin doesn’t speak in a vocal fry during these zoom calls… 😂 because I’d would’ve had to ‘jump off this call’ and circle back to the meeting minutes 😂
I needed this laugh more than I knew today.. while being depressed because of my work place, crying right before I watched this, feeling stuck, and the job market being trash for whatever reason right now.. THIS was the laugh i needed, this was perfect, toooo accurate lol
Can't wait to watch. I was listening to the podcast episode at first but when Amanda said if you hear pauses its because we're trying not to laugh, I immediately stopped the episode. I knew I had to watch to get the full experience.
A joy-filled Amanda is truly great to see!!! I could definitely get into a sitcom with an Amanda working in corporate, being “over-seen” by Corporate Erin…the conflict/ resolution would be insanely hilarious!!! IJS
I literally listen to this episode on my way to work 3 days last week and it was like listening to it for the first time. I laughed so hard. Now I get to circle back and watch this as many times as I want to. ❤
I've been out of Corporate for a while now, but from time to time, my current journey -- in event productions -- tends to cross paths with corporate life. I feel validated by Corporate Erin. Thank You Amanda & Lisa [Erin Throlopolis - Corporate Erin] ❤
Obviously we all Know that Corporate Culture can be Spirit Sapping, Mind Numbing, Joyless and Soul Sucking. With that being factually True, My Takeaway and what I Really appreciated about this Podcast is the Humor and lightheartedness which Can be brought to the Reality of Corporate Culture. My 30+ years experience working in the Corporate Arena has Largely been positive. And these are the experiences on which I Now choose to focus 💜 Thank you for the Reminder Not to take either myself or Corporate too seriously. Btw I LOVE LOVE LOVE Corporate Erin 💜 💜 💜
Fugging TRIGGERED!!! lol Again, Corporate Erin is an annoyingly fabulous legend in the making! HOWEVER, I HATED corporate life, McManagers, meetings, quotas, Teams collaborations, dress codes, “deliverables” “Mandatory” participation, jargons, workplace politics, deadlines, micromanaging, etc. I do NOT miss it!
I am here for everything Corporate Erin!!! This was a much appreciated enjoyable break from the more serious content (which I also love and appreciate)!
Oh my gosh, I just watched the intro, and I have never been more excited for an interview. Amanda, I appreciate you giving us your thought process going into this. This is such a gift for me on this Saturday morning🙏 I love both of you so much.
Omg what a combo!!Amanda you keep blessing us with your content!I watched your interview on that Relationship podcast yesterday (sorry forgot the exact name) and I was ECSTATIC!Also totally resonated with me 100%!!!❤
“Take your mental health day at work” 🤣🤣🤣 “If you want to know who your best or whole self is, think about the company you’re at, see what they want your whole self to be and map that onto yourself” 😂🤣😂
This was the most fun I've had in a while 😅
😂🫶🏾
If the dichotomy of funny but serious were a person….I saw it all in your facial expressions. So funny 🤣🤣🤣 great convo ❤
Amanda’s overseers analogy was 🤌🏼
“Take your mental health day - at work.” Really Erin? 😅 “America is a business...” Terrible, but not wrong. This was great. 😂😂😂 We needed some levity. Thank you.
I'm rewatching it. Lol I'm dying
Lisa stuck to that character like glue. Amanda how did you not break more than you did?? Yall got skills
"Well, naturally we are disurupteeeerrrs" GURL, I am crying!!!
We made overseeing cool again is a wild statement! 🤣🤣🤣
This is so DUMB yet So ACCURATE! I hate that I FULLY understand this entire conversation! Great job ladies...😆
The side effect of corporate for me was anxiety, loss of self worth and imposter syndrome when I worked at an advertising agency
The way Amanda is sitting there listening and nodding in agreement 😂😂😂😂😂😂
“If it ain’t broke, don’t try to emancipate it.” 😅🤣😂🤣 This episode is hilarious!
Erin has the capacity for pivotal podcasts… they definitely close the loop.
😂😂
Erin induce pride and love and rage at the same time. She triggers me and I love her 😂😂😂
"Hey, we dont have slaves here,we pay peepaah"😂
Amanda almost bursting at the seams trying not to laugh in the first 10 minutes of this interview did my heart good. 😂😂😂😂
I’m barely 10 minutes in and I’m cracking up and triggered all at the same time.
Corporate Erin is the gift I ain’t know I needed. 😂
Legal told me to say “Hi, we don’t have slaves here, we do pay peoplllllle” 😂
This right here is what I live everyday. It is a hilarious but sadly accurate portrayal of people trying to assimilate into a system that never intended to include them in the first place.I am not Stepin’ Fechit which is exactly who we are expected to be which is why I am creating my exit plan.

ALL of your haters are living in darkness and your light and love is disrupting to their false sense of comfort.
The sadness at "you guys are no longer able to use whips" was HILARIOUS!😂
I thought I clicked on this for a serious conversation to validate my experience… and I was in for a total BLAST!!! Yet it still did the job
Corporate Erin quipping “bra-ched” is the correct pronunciation has already sent me 30 seconds in 😂😂😂
Watching these two try not to laugh is a gift I didn’t know I needed.
Legal told me to say we have no slaves here. I am SCREAMING! 😂
This right here is my brand of unseriousness 🤣🤣🤣
Listen!!! Working as an Analyst and previously in leadership in corporate I HAVE TO SAY the level of accuracy and fulfillment with laughter was so needed. 😂😂😂
Yes - when she broke out with the core competencies- I hollared ❤
@@sweetcrimsonI was completely undone the ENTIRE video 😂😂😂
I love this but its hitting too close to home. I work with these people. Ive seen someone go from normal and then transfer into this person. Im here for this conversation
Ive seen it too! It's unreal to witness
Oh my God...she said "mental health day at work" my stomach dropped and i hollered....lmao Amanda, you described it perfectly..im triggered by how validated i feel hearing from Corporate Erin here lol
I’m here for the Energy of Corporate Erin’s dog in the background 💜
Yes😂
That dog is like " I can't wait to run away from.this insane lady!!!" 😂😂😂
When Erin basically said management is basically "white blessings" part 2.... In regards to the whip...I...Lost...it!!😂😂😂
The synergies here really show the level of seamless collaboration your teams have 😂 LOVED!!
This was great. (Hard swallows) I’m going to circle back and take this conversation offline with my sister because I think she will get great valuuuueee from this and use the feedback from corporate Erin, (hard swallow) as she looks for her next role in corporate. 😂😂😂
😂😂😂I had to keep breathing and tell myself it is a character because once or twice my brain was going „why is she talking like that stwaaaapp „😂😂😂
Same I was like she can't sound like that in RL...lol
Been a fan of Amanda and this show… but this episode was GOLD! Shoutout to Corporate Erin for slipping in some GEMS alongside the sarcasm. This was perfect for my intellectual and sarcastic ass. Lol thanks ladies 💓
Also,
part 2? 🙏🏽
Corporate Erin is pure genius!

The dog is completely unbothered by Corporate Erin . . . while the rest of us can barely keep from laughing.
In a LinkedIn Live event, she disclosed that her dog is on a pup improvement plan but she calls it a PUP 🥹
Watched weeks ago... Im back because I need a laugh! Love this interview so much 🤣🤣🤣
Can't wait to watch. I was listening to the podcast episode at first but when Amanda said if you hear pauses its because we're trying not to laugh, I immediately stopped the episode. I knew I had to watch to get the full experience.
Same!!!
The amount of JOY this episode gives me! Allowing me to laugh at the sometimes absurdity of working in the corporate world 😂
The whole overseer convo took me OUT!!!!😂😂😂😂😂😂
A joy-filled Amanda is truly great to see!!! I could definitely get into a sitcom with an Amanda working in corporate, being “over-seen” by Corporate Erin…the conflict/ resolution would be insanely hilarious!!! IJS
Listen - we need it!!!! 😂
I'm OBSESSED with this episode. This is my 4th (or 5th) time watching/listening to this. Such brilliance in the midst of laughter.
The preverbal whip is that green available icon on teams 🙄
Ain’t it tho!!! 😂😂 when that icon turns yellow, I get so anxious
@@natalieb4928Negrotivity lol
Whoa😮😮😮😮😂. Facts.
Amanda…. I love you for this!!! As I work my WFH corporate position, I’m beyond weak.😂🤣🤣😂 Thank YOU!😂😂😂 SO EDIFYING!!🔥🔥🔥
America as a business and I'm a constitute.. Claud ham mercy!!!
A collab that certainly was not on my bingo card for 2024 but I'm happy it's there 🥴🤗🤗🤗🥰🥰🥰♥️♥️♥️👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I'm only the first question in and I am DOWN 🤣. You can hear Amanda laughing at her response about her family. TEARS!!! This is just what I needed 🤗
"let's go around the room and introduce ourselves" yo i just got TRIGGERED 😭😭
I literally listen to this episode on my way to work 3 days last week and it was like listening to it for the first time. I laughed so hard. Now I get to circle back and watch this as many times as I want to. ❤
This entire pod was ridiculous! Y’all are hilariously unserious 😂
😂😂😂😂 broached breached broched wth 🤦🏾♂️ 😂😂😂. The analogy of the spread sheet and slavery is actual.
I've been out of Corporate for a while now, but from time to time, my current journey -- in event productions -- tends to cross paths with corporate life. I feel validated by Corporate Erin.
Thank You Amanda & Lisa [Erin Throlopolis - Corporate Erin] ❤
Amanda.. you are the seeds to the watermelon! You are the sweetest Batteeeekha 🥰🥰🥰🥰
Wow…such a masterful conversation! Multiple laughs & rewinds…my horizons have grown, thanks to you beautiful women🌹👏🏾
I was not ready!!! I made the mistake of listening this in the office!
This is brilliant. Thank you both so so much! I laughed and felt so seen/sorry for us in corporate 😩
The Artists Revolution against Corporatism is evolving. Amanda rises above them all. Thank You.
The whispering of "Black" is so hilarious!
Amanda this is so funny but somehow still taught such a valuable lesson. I would love for Corporate Erin to come back!
When I say I'm in tears 😂😂😂😂 not the proverbial whip
I loved this! This was the laugh I needed while getting ready to go to my corporate job this morning 😂
They should partner on a web series taking place at McManager Management, etc. Company. I need more role playing - hystericalllllll 😂😂😂😂.
I love you two together - your chemistry is 🔥
I didnt know what i was listening to until you guys started giggling. 👀🤣🤣🤣
This is so accurate and it’s triggering 😂😂
Give the fellas on the S-Curl box "their flowers" 😳😒😏😂 for Black History month took me all the way out! 😂😂😂😂😂
I am just now making the connection between her last name being Throwupolis, and the aggressive swallowing 😀
I have literally worked with people just like corporate Erin and people would make me feel like I was in the Twilight Zone. 😂
Even our own will act confused too lol
PIPs are definitely whips.
I had to stop the video and cried at the part... triggering. 😢 Lisa is brilliant. Amanda staying in "character" while interviewing her is top tier.❤

I do NOT miss it!
I love the jokes and the sarcasm of Corporate America.
This was brilliant!!!! Key takeaways: DEI everything and cats purr at a healing MHz.
I have not laughed this hard in a WHILE. Thank you both for your service
Take your mental health day at work with bringing your cat to the office
I left a black, corporate, social justice nonprofit almost a year ago and this conversation is triggering and funny.
Black and corporate!?
Corporate Erin is hilarious!!!!! I really love Lisa Beasley in #churchyonbetplus 🎬🎬🎬🤣🤣🤣🤣
This is one of the truest and funniest hours about real life I have seen in awhile -don’t know how you to kept it together most of the time 👏🏿
I am here for everything Corporate Erin!!! This was a much appreciated enjoyable break from the more serious content (which I also love and appreciate)!
36:17 "I was in the critical first batch who knows..." re: Juneteenth took me out. I blanked after that. 🤣🤣🤣
🤣🤣 hilarious!
Oh my gosh, I just watched the intro, and I have never been more excited for an interview. Amanda, I appreciate you giving us your thought process going into this. This is such a gift for me on this Saturday morning🙏 I love both of you so much.
I am obsessed with everything about this. Erin actually makes me excited about corporate life.
Aye😂😂😂😂😂😂😂, this is the funniest, realest, saddest, truest thang I’ve ever seen, thank you.
Laughing at 5:00am is not good for sleep apnea 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂😉😂😊
Not the slave spirits fostering a work environment 😂😂😂😂😂😂
This is hilarious 😂😂😂😂😂
This filled me with so much joy, I'm literally in tears 😂😭 thank y'all so much!! I'll be homeless before going back to corporate 😬
NIGHTMARE FUEL!!!!!!😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I will say Erin (Lisa) is very intelligent! She really had the range to make the interview work and we learned something!!
Omg what a combo!!Amanda you keep blessing us with your content!I watched your interview on that Relationship podcast yesterday (sorry forgot the exact name) and I was ECSTATIC!Also totally resonated with me 100%!!!❤
Knew this was going to be wild when Erin said she had critical feedback
“Doesn’t that sound like freedom in America?!?” #AintNoFunIfTheHomiesCantHaveNone 💀🤷🏽♂️🤣
This video is hilarious and had me in tears. Glad this interview was a source of joy for you!
❤❤❤😂🎉🎉Bravo ladies...this was medicinal to watch and laugh
This is absolutely BRILLIANT 😂😂😂
This had me hearty belly laughing. I needed this
Her voice is aggravating, but because I’m gonna hear Amanda Seales POV I’m going to try to get through this shit
I knew I would enjoy this... I set aside time AND snacks! when the three of us shared a cackle on cue I knew I made the right choices.
I'm here for each & every time y'all broke. 😭😭
👉🏽🌝
Ask your friends to loan you a billion dollars and if the say no? Take it! I’m dead!!!
this is so brilliant on so many levels!!
Thanks for the reminder to put in my request for 6/19/24 off this year! 😉😏
“Take your mental health day at work” 🤣🤣🤣
“If you want to know who your best or whole self is, think about the company you’re at, see what they want your whole self to be and map that onto yourself” 😂🤣😂
The big DDD 😭
