it's very true dude i'm pretty frustrated with the situation. She really is a terrible manager and exec.

I'm competent at doing this as a marketing director and brand writer, but it's a different problem altogether when it comes to trying to totally renovate a shit company that has, for years, been bottlenecked by a weak CEO.
The pro here is that I have a big growth opportunity which is risky but could pay off big, especially for a 26 year old with a writing degree. The con is that I'm inexperienced in the field of executive management and hiring and I'm working against years of bad company culture. And every week I spend training myself in this field, we lose another level of net profit because I am not able to concentrate fully on bringing in cashflow.
I'm still going to give it my all and then count the chips by years end before cashing out.
Any advice + wisdom + stern reprimanding welcome

If you're only 26 and see a potential for huge upside, stick with it. You have nothing to lose. If you choose the easy way out, like most in your generation, you'll end up bald like lulz, hairy like Ella, gay like loramin, or angry like Mick. I wish I could offer earnest advice as to how to kick a woman out of her own company, but given the current climate (thanks Cosby and Weinstein, idiots), men can no longer put their boot heel on a woman (((figuratively))) to put her in line. As long as you're able to manage AND you have a stake / potential for massive upside with this company, id do 60 hours a week to make it work. I did that shit as a young engineer and I had 3 kids and a bitch ass Iranian wife at your age. I can't give you advice about Human Resources unfortunately. I tell people what they should do once they've been hired. If I were in a hiring position my employer would have one employee: myself.
