When Your Values Don’t Match Theirs: Navigating Conversations With Friends and Family

Sometimes the people that matter most to us don't feel the same way we do about things that are really important.

Rose and Elizabeth go off script and talk through real life. Join us as we work through experiences that caused anxiety, challenged relationships, and helped develop their character.

This work is not about perfection. It’s about telling the truth and letting that truth guide you forward.

Brene Brown - Diary of a CEO Podcast

In this midweek drop, we explore how to stay grounded in your sense of agency at work—even when the world outside feels overwhelming. When stress is high, everyday workplace dynamics can start to feel intense, urgent, or even threatening. This episode breaks down how to move through those moments with more clarity, steadiness, and self-trust.

We talk about the difference between power and pressure, why your nervous system may be reacting to more than just what’s happening at work, and how to reclaim small, meaningful moments of choice throughout your day.

• Why feeling evaluated at work can trigger anxiety—even for experienced professionals • The simple attention shift that helps you regain confidence in meetings • How a quick pause and breath can reset your nervous system • Why having a clear communication goal makes meetings easier to lead • How staying flexible can improve collaboration and outcomes

When you feel evaluated, your attention often turns inward. But strong communication happens when you return your focus to the purpose of the conversation.

1. Pause and breathe – regulate your body before responding

2. Reconnect to your goal – ask: What am I here to accomplish?

3. Stay flexible – allow new ideas and perspectives to emerge

You are doing better than you think.

Speak clearly. And listen bravely.

Episode Overview Receiving feedback can feel overwhelming—especially early in your career, when imposter syndrome and worry are already loud. In this episode, we explore why feedback often triggers anxiety, over-personalization, and loss of confidence, and how to receive evaluation without letting it define your worth.

In This Episode, You’ll Learn:

• Why feedback feels threatening when you’re new
• How anxiety and imposter syndrome distort feedback
• The hidden commitments that fuel spiraling
• Four practical ways to respond to feedback with confidence
• How to separate growth from self-worth

This episode is for anyone who has ever heard feedback and thought, “This proves I don’t belong.”

• What microaggressions between women can look like in the workplace
• Why these moments can feel especially painful or confusing
• Scarcity culture and the “only one seat at the table” phenomenon
• Internalized sexism and alignment with dominant workplace norms
• How race, sexuality, age, motherhood, neurodivergence, and class shape power dynamics among women
• The difference between intent and impact
• Moving from competition to collective advancement

1. Microaggressions Are Often Subtle but Cumulative Small comments about tone, ambition, appearance, or commitment can reinforce harmful stereotypes and signal who “belongs.”
2. Diversity Changes the Power Conversation Not all women hold the same social power. Intersections of race, sexuality, disability, age, and motherhood status influence workplace experiences.
3. Scarcity Fuels Competition When leadership representation is limited, women may unconsciously compete for proximity to power rather than collaborate.
4. Intent Does Not Erase Impact Even well-meaning comments can reinforce exclusion. Awareness matters.
5. Solidarity Is a Practice Supporting other women requires intention, not assumption.

• Have I ever felt smaller after interacting with another woman at work? What specifically shifted?
• Where might I unconsciously judge other women for being “too much” or “not enough”?
• How has scarcity culture shaped the way I navigate leadership or visibility?
• If I hold power in my workplace, how am I using it to amplify others?

• Amplify other women’s ideas in meetings.
• Interrupt subtle dismissals.
• Credit contributions publicly.
• Examine internalized narratives about leadership, tone, and competence.
• Shift from competition to collaboration.

Inclusive cultures aren’t built by accident. They’re built when individuals become conscious of how power moves — and choose to move differently.

Diversity isn’t just about representation. It’s about how we distribute voice, validation, and opportunity.

When women move from scarcity to solidarity, workplaces change.

Microaggressions between women in the workplace are often subtle, confusing, and deeply invalidating. In this episode, we explore why they hurt more when they come from another woman—and how to respond with clarity, boundaries, and self-trust.

In This Episode, We Cover:

• Why harm from within the group is harder to name
• How internalized sexism and scarcity show up relationally
• Four practical, psychologically grounded responses to microaggressions
• Why validation matters more than confrontation

Key Takeaway: You don’t need to prove harm to protect yourself. Trusting your experience is enough.
