Episode 98~ She Doesn't Need More Confidence. She Needs Her Authority Back with Kate Woodward Young

<p>She&#39;s the one everyone calls when something needs to be fixed, organized, carried through, or solved. She has the experience, the credentials, the 30-year track record. And yet, somehow she&#39;s still waiting to be invited into the decision.Sound familiar? Then this episode is for you.Today I&#39;m sitting down with Kate Woodward Young speaker, author, ICF-certified decision support coach, and host of the top-ranked Childcare Conversations podcast on the day her new book, Authority Without Apology: When Your Responsibility Has Outgrown Your Title, launches into the world.Kate has spent more than 30 years watching the same pattern play out across business, education, nonprofits, and families: the woman everyone depends on is not always the woman people recognize as the authority. And she is done with it.In this conversation, we get into:◆ Why work, authority, and recognition are three completely different things and what happens when accomplished women collapse them into one◆ The difference between being needed and being powerful (and why one doesn&#39;t automatically become the other)◆ Why telling women to &quot;speak up&quot; and &quot;lean in&quot; misses the actual problem◆ How Kate&#39;s own reinvention rebuilding solo after decades in a co-brand shaped everything in this book◆ What it actually looks like to put your expertise in the room where decisions get madeThis episode drops on September 25 the launch date of Authority Without Apology and a date that now carries an unexpected connection to Dolly Parton, 9 to 5, and the larger cultural conversation about women and work that we are all still very much in the middle of.If you are the woman who keeps getting more responsibility without more recognition this one is for you.Grab the book at: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0HJFW9F8G?lv=shuf&amp;bestFormat=true&amp;social_share=cm_sw_r_ffobk_cso_cp_mwn_dp_SXTFQ9SA1ECN01Q36XMJ&amp;channelId=704&amp;ref_=cm_sw_r_ffobk_cso_cp_mwn_dp_SXTFQ9SA1ECN01Q36XMJ&amp;plpRedirect=mhFallbackConnect with Kate: https://katewoodwardyoung.me/</p>
