Motherhood in your 40s: How to root down and rise differently with Steph Sta Maria

Scapegoating at work is one of the most subtle—and damaging—forms of workplace abuse. Unlike bullying, which is overt and direct, scapegoating often hides in plain sight: an individual is unfairly blamed, excluded, or sacrificed to protect the image of a team or leader.

In this episode, Dr. Nathalie Martinek, author of The Scapegoating Playbook at Work, unpacks the predictable stages of scapegoating and how they unfold in professional settings. You’ll learn:
Why scapegoating isn’t the same as bullying (though they can overlap).
The stages of the scapegoating pattern and warning signs to look out for.
How leaders and employees can interrupt the cycle before it causes long-term harm.
Practical steps to create cultures of accountability that don’t rely on targeting individuals when problems arise.

If you’ve ever felt unfairly blamed at work—or witnessed a colleague being sacrificed for the sake of “team harmony”—this conversation will help you name what’s happening, protect yourself and others, and inspire healthier workplace practices.

 The Scapegoating Trap: How to Spot and Stop Workplace Blame Games with Nathalie Martinek

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Romey Granek, a Melbourne-based general surgeon who graduated from Monash University in 2014. With a career spanning acute general surgery, trauma, Aboriginal health, and surgical education, Dr. Granek brings a thoughtful, systems-focused approach to patient care.

We explore:
Why gallbladder issues are the most common cause of abdominal pain in women
How women often present differently with abdominal symptoms—and what that means for diagnosis
What to expect before and after gallbladder surgery
Steps we can take to reduce the risk of gallbladder disease
Broader insights into bowel pathology, education, and building stronger health systems

Dr. Granek also shares his passion for running surgical outpatient clinics and supporting Aboriginal health initiatives, highlighting the role of surgery not just in acute care, but in improving long-term health outcomes.

If you’ve ever wondered why gallbladder issues are so common—or what really happens behind the scenes in surgical care—this episode will give you both answers and practical takeaways.
