Welcome to Season Six of the First Gen Coach Podcast! This episode is all about redefining leadership for first gen professionals. I am interviewed by first-generation Latina social worker Sara Diaz. We talk about my journey of leadership, what leadership means to me, and how first gen professionals can create their own definition not just of leadership, but of success. I talk about the importance of community, owning your worth, and how to overcome self-doubt. If leadership is an area you’d like to focus on this year, this episode is for you!

In this episode, I discuss the importance of cutting emotional ties to jobs that no longer serve you, particularly for Latinas, women of color, and first gen professionals. I talk about the anger and grief that comes with career transitions, and why it’s so critical to process these emotions. Finally, I give examples of how you can love yourself more than you love a job, and provide actionable steps to take action towards your career goals.

If you produce excellent work and get strong feedback, but you’re told “raises are not in the budget right now”...

If you feel stuck and unsure if you’re qualified enough for higher paying jobs since they require so much experience…

If you’re intimidated by the idea of asking since so much time has passed without you getting a raise…

If you don’t know how to frame your impact in a way that translates to ROI for the company…

Then this webinar replay is for you!

We covered:

• The four elements that determine pay, with specific examples of each one
• Three different times that it makes the most sense to ask for a raise
• How to highlight your impact in a way that showcases the value that you add to a company.

I share specific reflection questions you can ask yourself to showcase your impact, how you can do a comparison of job descriptions to find out how much you’re actually making, and even the affirmations I used before negotiating my raise.
