Why Women Get Overlooked at Work (And How to Change It)
You can be brilliant, hardworking and incredibly capable, and still find yourself being overlooked.
But what if the problem isn't only what's happening around you?
After speaking at a women in tech event, I left thinking about how many incredible women are frustrated that they're not being heard, recognised or given the opportunities they deserve, while also struggling to speak up, set boundaries, advocate for themselves and communicate what they actually want.
There are absolutely barriers women face in workplaces and leadership.
But this episode is about the part we have the power to change.
I'm talking about radical responsibility, the stories we carry about ourselves and how those beliefs can quietly influence the way we show up, lead and allow other people to treat us.
In this episode:
• why working harder isn't always what gets you recognised
• how your internal narrative can follow you into every room
• what changes when you start advocating for yourself and your career
• why confidence and self-trust are essential for women who want to lead
If you're waiting for someone else to notice how capable you are, recognise your contribution or finally give you the opportunity you've been hoping for, this episode might challenge you to look somewhere different.
