Americans are divided on whether being described as "woke" is an insult. Jennie Yang, a specialist in neuro-linguistic programming, thinks a lot about the power of language. Her career has been rooted in fast-paced tech environments, including AppAnnie and TigerConnect, and, in recent years, she has led the people function at 15Five.

In this episode, Jennie joins neurobiology expert Rajkumari Neogy to explore the origins of the term "woke," its true meaning, and how organizations should approach social and political issues. They unpack how capitalistic and patriarchal systems go against compassion, especially during a period of significant turmoil in the tech industry.

Throughout the conversation, they offer tools to foster psychological safety and process grief and trauma at work—crucial in times of layoffs, limited investment dollars, and shrinking budgets.
