Listen Later

In today's episode, Heather answers a powerful question from her Instagram community: How do I advocate for myself without bragging? This is a challenge so many of us, especially women, face. How do you share your gifts, your expertise, and your accomplishments with confidence and authenticity without feeling arrogant? Heather breaks it down into three core strategies that will help you shift your mindset and your approach so you can advocate with grace, clarity, and impact. In this episode, you'll learn:
  • Talk About the Thing, Not Yourself How externalizing your gifts makes sharing them feel like service, not bragging.
  • Believe in Others as Much as Yourself Why trusting the openness and curiosity of the people you're speaking to shifts your energy and confidence.
  • Own Your Gifts Why fully embracing and sharing your talents is essential to living your purpose and making a difference.
  • The Role of Service in Advocacy How approaching advocacy from a place of contribution removes the stigma of bragging.
  • Practical Tips to Change Your Self-Talk From using "iliism" to adopting a service mindset, Heather shares tools to reframe doubt into empowerment.
