If you’ve ever felt like you’re working hard but still not advancing, you’re not alone.

You’re dedicated, you solve problems with ease, and you go out of your way to impress those influential stakeholders. Yet, despite all your efforts, you may still feel your career is not progressing as it should be.

If you are looking to lead, make a difference, have an impact – you will need to move out of the comfort zone and travel to the growth zone.

When you are stuck in your comfort zone, growth can feel scary, it can even seem that women like you just don't get those types of opportunities.

But these opportunities will not be handed to you - you have to step up and take them.

If you don't, no one else will and you will still be in the same position 5, 10 or even 15 years from now.

It takes confidence to break out of your comfort zone and if you've been stuck in it for a long time it may seem like an impossible next step.

However, it's about taking the FIRST step and I am going to be sharing with you why and how you can begin to break through that comfort zone.

Tune in to discover: 

• Why stepping outside of your comfort zone is key to accelerating your career
• Strategies to help you break through the barriers that might be holding you back 
• Your next steps if you know this year is the year you want to end with steps forward

“You don't have to work 24 7, like, all the time. You have to enjoy your life as well”

In this very special episode of the 360 LeadHERship Podcast, I’m thrilled to introduce a very important guest—my daughter, Kate.

This episode is a unique opportunity to step behind the curtain of my professional life and see me not just as a leadership coach, but as a mother, guiding and nurturing my daughter’s confidence and potential.

My daughter is already brimming with confidence, joy, and wisdom that surprises me every day!

I work with so many women who tell me that their biggest goal is to be a role model for their daughter, and they don’t want to be remembered as the mom who was “always working”

Together, we chat about the importance of enjoying life while pursuing your goals and how vital it is to balance a demanding career with quality family time!

This episode is perfect for women in senior leadership roles, especially those balancing the responsibilities of work and being a mom.

It’s a conversation filled with heart, fun and some golden nuggets on confidence from a very confident little girl!

Tune in to discover: 

• How to be a role model for your children without sacrificing your well-being or overworking yourself.
• How daily gratitude can enhance your leadership but also make you a happier, more fulfilled Mom.
• The importance of pursuing multiple interests over your life.
• Practical advice on how to stay confident in challenging situations

However, unfortunately,  this is simply not how it works.
