I'm not putting on my "professional podcast voice." I just want to talk—woman to woman—about something that's been bothering me deeply: the quiet erasure of women's identities at work.

After almost 10 years of coaching women and partnering with companies, I've noticed a disturbing trend. More and more, corporate leaders are scared to even say the word "woman" out loud. It's like being a woman in leadership is suddenly too controversial to acknowledge—and I won't stay silent about it.

You deserve to take up space. You don't need to wait to be invited. This episode is your reminder: you are not too much—you're just getting started.

I created a free masterclass called Invisible to Irreplaceable to help women like us get seen, valued, and promoted at work. You can watch it on demand here:

Is your corporate job really giving you the stability you think it is? In this bold and timely episode of The Potentialite Podcast, leadership coach Laura Weldy dismantles the myth of job security and challenges the idea that a salaried role offers real safety in today's workplace.

She introduces the concept of career architecture, shares her favorite personal branding strategies, and provides actionable steps for taking control of your career in a rapidly evolving market.

• The role of personal branding in protecting your professional future
