Briefcase Baddie

A Briefcase Baddie (noun) is the one who walks into the room and quietly rewrites the rules. Sharp-minded, sharp-dressed, and not here to play small. They can lead a meeting, spot the dysfunction in a “quick sync,” and still make time for joy, rest, and a life that actually matters.

They don’t live to work — they work the system to build a life on their terms. Fluent in ambition and boundaries. Unavailable for grind culture. Unbothered by performative hustle.

They’re not chasing titles — they’re chasing freedom.

Everyone wants to be one. Most companies don’t deserve them.
But they’re here anyway…until they’re not.

After realizing she was managing her boss’s job and emotional stability, Taylor quietly updated their résumé, blocked off Fridays, and booked a solo trip to Mexico. Total Briefcase Baddie move.

Briefcased

In British slang it refers to being hungover from partying/drinking all night. It takes after the concept of the durability of a locked briefcase, being able to drink all night and keep going.
