What’s holding you back in your leadership communication?
This week’s podcast episode is a deeply personal one, as we continue the celebration of the podcast’s third birthday and approach our 150th episode. Today I’m sharing not only the common blocks that I see hold people back from stepping into their leadership, but also my own story of how I overcame some of these same obstacles.
If you’re ambitious, experienced, and ready to grow your career and impact as a leader, but you’re still holding back when it comes to being more visible, speaking up, or communicating with confidence, then this episode is for you.
We’ll explore the blocks such as imposter syndrome, perfectionism, the impact of cultural preferences on how you communicate, and the fears. More importantly, I’ll guide you through the mindset shifts and practical reframes that can help you start to unlock your voice and show up as the leader you truly are.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
- Why imposter syndrome is far more common than you think, and how to shift your mindset about it
- The perfectionism-imposter syndrome cycle, and how it sabotages your visibility and impact
- The critical difference between communication and performance
- Why ‘Said is better than perfect’- stop letting fear quieten your voice
- Cultural intelligence to help you communicate authentically, without feeling like you need to be louder or more extroverted
- The truth about confidence vs. arrogance
Reflection Questions:
- Which of these areas is holding you back the most in your leadership communication?
- Is there something else that’s stopping you from becoming visible, confident, and impactful?
