Why Does the Workplace Feel Like an Exclusive Club? | Gatekeeping Explained

Why does the workplace sometimes feel less like a team and more like an exclusive club? In this episode, we break down gatekeeping at work - what it looks like and why it happens. We explore the motivations behind workplace gatekeeping, from power dynamics and insecurity to unspoken rules that keep these structures in place. We also share an anonymous listener submitted story that perfectly captures how gatekeeping can leave people blindsided and questioning their own knowledge and abilities. If you’ve ever walked away from a meeting feeling confused, excluded, or like you “should already know this,” this episode is for you. We close with reflection questions designed to help you reframe these experiences, shifting the focus away from negative self-talk and self-blame, and identify what you can do next when you encounter gatekeeping. 💬 Do you have a story to share?
