Let me tell you a secret:
When you have skin in the game, you show up differently.
When your company sends you to the trainings that they provide, you can come back and return to the same old day-to-day routine without anything lost. But when you invest in your OWN growth, you have something to lose…and more to gain.
This week, I’ll be discussing…
- The myths surrounding investing in your own career growth
- Why it’s always worth investing in yourself
- My own experience investing in coaching
- And more!
Investing in yourself isn’t a waste or an unnecessary expenditure; it’s the best way to transform the way you show up at work, show up as a leader, and show up as you move forward in your career.

When I was first introduced to the concept of “leadership coaching,” I thought it was all about learning to be a better speaker. I thought it was about becoming a convincing and eloquent CEO, so I never thought I needed it. I didn’t realize I could invest my own resources into developing some of the weaker areas in myself to move further in my career.
I couldn’t have been more wrong.
This week, I’m going to educate you on all things leadership coaching, including…
- What leadership coaching truly is
- Why it’s worth the investment in yourself, even if you aren’t a CEO
- The “myths” surrounding leadership
- And more!
Leadership, contrary to popular opinion, doesn’t always come naturally…but there are wonderful, talented people out there who are able to help you grow into the leader you want to be!

When you go to work conferences, to career coaching sessions, to trainings…are they giving you advice on how to BE? Or are they giving you more things to DO?
You do not need more “to dos” checked off of your list in order to advance in your career. What you need to learn is how to be.
How to be a leader. How to be a director. How to be a manager or an executive or whatever that next step is. When it comes to growth, BEING is the secret sauce to having any result you want in your life.
This week, I’m going to be talking about:
- What identity has to do with career advancement
- Why my misconceptions about “doing” nearly cost me an amazing opportunity at work
- Why you need to stop focusing on the “doing” in order to grow
No more to-dos here. I’m going to tell you all about what it means to BE.

If you only take one thing away from this week’s episode, I want it to be this: there are other ways to get a promotion outside of being rewarded for hard work. You can actually plan your own promotion.
If you’re feeling doubtful, I completely understand—this is not the way we’re taught in corporate. No one else in corporate is even talking about this. But it IS possible…I know, because I’ve done it. And if no one else in corporate is going to tell you how, I’m happy to be the first!
This week, I’ll be telling you about…
- My experience with the mindset of “earning” promotions
- Why I used to be immersed in the “quiet quitter” mindset…and why I don’t support that ideology
- What happened when I shifted my mindset and began planning my promotions
If you’re feeling frustrated by constantly being overlooked when promotion season rolls around, you need to listen to this episode…and you need my Position to Promotion guide! The link to download can be found below!

In the corporate world, confidence is key when you’re looking to reach the next rung of the career ladder.
Unfortunately, no one is talking about what to do if you struggle with confidence—or why these silent expectations are placed on you in the first place.
Struggling with self-confidence in the workplace can have many causes, such as…
- The way you were raised
- Toxic work environments
- A preoccupation with past mistakes
These are just a few of the reasons you may not be displaying the kind of confidence people look for when assessing potential candidates for promotions. But no matter the cause, there are plenty of ways you can begin to build up your self-confidence and let go of the limiting beliefs holding you back. Listen now to hear my five tips for boosting your confidence in the workplace.

If I asked each of you listening to this podcast whether or not you’re suffering from self-worth issues, I think you’d probably say no…even if you are.
I’ve noticed an invisible stigma surrounding self-worth issues. Nobody wants to admit they struggle with self-image, especially in the workplace. But ignoring the problem doesn’t make it go away…and if you don’t solve it, you may find your promotion dreams continually dashed because of it.
If you find yourself struggling with…
- Tying your identity to how MUCH you work rather than how WELL you work
- Constantly going above and beyond in order to prove to yourself that you belong there
- Having no activities or identity outside of work—when someone asks you what you do, you give them your title
- Feeling guilty for holding your boundaries and constantly compromising on them
…then you may have more difficulties with self-image than you think.
How do you stop compromising on this? Let me tell you how to boost your self-worth in order to prepare yourself to get to the next level in your career.

Last week, we discussed the five types of imposter syndrome, and how we can identify which one we suffer from and where it shows up in our work; this week, I want to talk about the root causes of imposter syndrome but most importantly, how to overcome imposter syndrome at work. Identifying the root cause is a huge step in overcoming it in your career.
For some, it stems from a single bad experience they may have had early on in their careers. For others, it could stem from their upbringing. For others, it could be limiting beliefs.
Everyone is different, and everyone has different places where their imposter syndrome has grown from. But if we can track down that root, it will be that much easier to fight off those lingering thoughts and fears that are holding us back from stepping into the roles we deserve.
Ready for the conclusion to my three-part series on imposter syndrome? Let's finish this series strong!
