My Silence Is Not For Sale with Andrea MoreheadAndrea Morehead Allen
“My Silence is Not for Sale: Candid Conversations & Solutions for Hostility, Micro-aggressions & Gaslighting in the Workplace” is the unfiltered and unapologetic weekly podcast and YouTube program that unveils the covert tactics used to dim the lights of shining and productive employees.
Using her work experience as a backdrop, the platform gives voice to those with similar stories and with experts who offer practical and tangible tips to navigate hostile environments, including strategic steps to leave these abusive relationships. With the assistance of mental health, medical, employment and legal professionals, and more, Allen provides a safe place for honest and uncomfortable conversations about workplace trauma, which is supported by solutions to improve work culture and heal hearts for people to thrive and prosper.
After 21 years anchoring the 5pm, 5:30pm, 6pm, and 11pm news broadcasts at NBC WTHR in Indianapolis, Indiana, seven-time Emmy Award-winning journalist Andrea Morehead Allen literally walked off the job without warning on June 5, 2020. She had been silently navigating workplace hostility and racial discrimination during her career at the station. The experience was further compounded, beginning April 2018, by her public health battle with triple negative breast cancer, which is the deadliest form for black women.
Allen filed a federal discrimination lawsuit against the company, but she rejected the financial settlement and refused to sign a non-disclosure agreement, all to retain her legal right to share her story. The purpose of the lawsuit was to assist in the national conversation about racism, sexism, and discrimination, and how both effect people of color in disparate work opportunities, compensation, mental and physical health, and beyond. She’s spent almost 30 years sharing the inspirational stories of others, but her own experience is the biggest story of her career. Allen’s goal is to support people who are suffering from workplace disrespect, mistreatment, and marginalization, and to assist them in finding peace and freedom.
