Think you need one more certification, one more year, or one more sign before you go after the role you want?

Think again.

In this episode of Ordinary to Badass, I’m joined by leadership coach and HR expert Traci Austin for a powerful conversation about confidence, self-doubt, and why so many high-performing women underestimate their own qualifications.

This is real, practical career advice for women in predominantly male industries who are tired of playing small, waiting to feel “ready,” and talking themselves out of opportunities they’ve already earned.

From a live coaching role-play to mindset shifts that change everything, Traci breaks down how to separate fear from facts—and start seeing your experience, skills, and leadership potential clearly.

✨ Theme: Mindset Breakthroughs + Visibility & Advocacy
We’re talking confidence, self-trust, and using smart career advice to position yourself for growth without becoming someone you’re not.

You’ll hear:

🔥 Why self-doubt—not lack of skill—is what keeps women from applying for promotions
💡 How to build proof of your impact so you stop questioning your value
💬 The simple shift that turns “I’m not ready” into “I’ve got this”

If you’ve been searching for honest career advice that actually helps you move forward, advocate for yourself, and step into leadership with confidence—this episode is for you.
