About this listen

In this solo episode, I’m diving deep into two things:

How to confidently advocate for yourself in interviews, pitches, and career transitions

Why being a beginner is actually your greatest superpower

After changing industries four times, taking big swings, failing publicly, and starting again, I’ve learned a lot about identity, reinvention, intuition, and believing you’re allowed to take up space. We talk about:

Why you’re the expert of your own story

Getting over the fear of “bragging” in interviews

Letting yourself be bad at something new

How to build confidence through consistent practice over time

Turning perceived weaknesses into unexpected strengths

The power of intuition in shaping your career

If you’ve ever felt behind, unqualified, or scared to start — this episode is your reminder that small steps create massive impact. If this resonated, leave a comment with your own six-word memoir — where you are now, and where you want to be.
