Episode 281: How to the build confidence needed for big career pivots featuring benefit auctioneer Lydia Fenet

Guest: Lydia Fenet, benefit auctioneer and best selling author

THIS WEEK’S TOPIC: 

Ever feel like others are better equipped to take those big, bold career leaps? Or maybe you wonder, where does their confidence come from? 

This week’s guest emphasizes that confidence isn’t something you are born with: It’s a skill and one that you can develop with practice, hard work, and persistence. 

In the second episode of our third collaboration series with the creative entrepreneur network The Southern Coterie, we’re diving into the most important elements of confidence and how they can fuel our big career and business leaps, as well as our most audacious goals. 

 

ABOUT THIS WEEK’S GUEST: Lydia Fenet is the founder and CEO of the Lydia Fenet Agency, which represents best in class charity auctioneers. Over her two-decade long career, Lydia served as the Global Managing Director of Strategic Partnerships for Christie’s and reshaped the fundraising landscape as the world’s leading charity auctioneer. She has raised more than $1 billion for more than 800 organizations. The author of two best selling books, “The Most Powerful Women in the Room is You” and “Claim Your Confidence,” Lydia has helped break down barriers for women both in the auction world and beyond. She’s also the host of the Claim Your Confidence podcast. 

WHAT YOU’LL LEARN FROM THE CONVERSATION: 

  • Why Lydia left her prime post at Christie’s at the top of her career. 
  • How building your confidence is a skill.
  • What every single person needs to understand about sales.
  • How you can build the muscle needed to lean into your most authentic self and your boldest dreams. 
  • There is so much great advice and perspective in this episode, and I’m excited to hear your feedback. You can reach me via the link in the show notes which you’ll find here in Episode 281: shesaidshesaidpodcast.com .  Or, email me: [email protected]
