Ep #304: 5 Pieces of “Good” Career Advice That Cost You Promotions

In this episode of Women Changing Leadership, I share five common pieces of workplace advice you should rethink—and what to do instead—to take true ownership of your career advancement. Drawing from real client conversations and my leadership intensives, I explain why traditional actions like sending blurbs for introductions, applying blindly online, waiting for hiring freezes to lift, and following passive promotion advice often hold women back from executive leadership. I offer practical strategies to advocate for yourself, forge valuable connections, and proactively showcase your leadership value, setting you up for promotions, pay increases, and long-term success. Discover how to confidently push boundaries and become an authentically powerful leader, and learn more about the Women’s Leadership Accelerator community designed to support you every step of the way.

Ep #303: Get Paid for Your Ideas (Not Just the Hours You Work)

In this episode of Women Changing Leadership, I break down the real impact of showing up as a thought leader at work—and how it leads to more recognition, greater career satisfaction, and promotions that don’t require constant pushing. Drawing on nearly a decade of experience, I walk you through why thought leadership isn’t about posting on LinkedIn or being visible for the sake of it. It’s about clarifying your leadership voice, communicating your ideas clearly, and being intentional about what you want to be known for. I share concrete examples and practical insights to help you strengthen your executive presence, confidently articulate your leadership brand, and shift from being paid for your time to being valued for your thinking. If you want to accelerate your path to the executive table, this episode will give you a clear place to start.
