Ep 007 – How to not get screwed over in business: contracts, boundaries & learning the hard way

This one’s for anyone who's ever felt undervalued, overworked, or straight-up screwed over in business.

In Episode 6 of We Will Manage, we talk about the hard stuff: broken trust, blurred boundaries, stolen ideas, and those moments where you realise... you should have sent that contract.

We share listener stories, freelance horror moments, and tips for protecting yourself in the workplace—whether you're on payroll or running your own thing.

In this episode:

– Why “just a quick logo” is rarely quick

– What scope creep actually looks like (and how to shut it down)

– The emotional toll of getting taken advantage of

– How to set boundaries that stick

– Tips for employees dealing with stolen credit or being overlooked

– How to handle that nightmare client who keeps adding work

Plus: Two truths and a lie about work, recognition, and freelance chaos.

Spoiler: Contracts are your friend. Boundaries are your power move. And documentation? That’s your new bestie.
