A space for those navigating workplace hostility, retaliation, and trauma — where your story is believed, your dignity restored, and your voice protected.
A Personal Welcome
You don’t need to be fearless. You only need to begin.
I’m Athena Kinley — a writer, advocate, and survivor of workplace harassment and retaliation.
After so much silence and self-doubt, I decided to turn my experience into something healing: a collection of resources and guides to help others protect their peace and reclaim their truth.
This site isn’t about revenge or rage — it’s about renewal. It’s for the ones who walked out of HR meetings shaking, who were called liars for telling the truth, who still flinch at the sound of a manager’s tone.
Here, you’re safe. You’re not overreacting. And you’re not alone.
The Guides
Tools for When Everything Feels Unfair
These booklets were written for the moments when you need clarity, grounding, and a voice — your own voice — after HR turns hostile or when you’re forced to defend your integrity.
Learn, Heal, Reclaim
From Documentation to Liberation
Workplace abuse isn’t just about policy — it’s personal. These articles explore how to stay grounded through chaos, write a powerful rebuttal, and recognize gaslighting in workplace systems disguised as “professionalism.”
