If you want to advance into leadership roles (and thrive once you’re in them), you have to master the skill of assertiveness.
I see lots of women get stuck when it comes to assertiveness because they think they need to be more aggressive & domineering in order to be assertive (and they *hate* doing this).
But what if I told you that your natural kindness and empathy are your greatest superpowers when it comes to assertiveness?
It’s true - effective assertiveness isn’t about being the most domineering person in the room. It’s about knowing how to walk the line between directness and collaborativeness - and I believe that kind, empathic humans are equipped to do that better than anyone else. Tune into today’s episode to begin developing an assertive communication style that honors your authentic personality & your values (because it IS possible).
I hope you find this episode permission-giving and liberating!

This week on the podcast I’m interviewing Felicia Ann Rose Enuha, host and creator of The Trill MBA show podcast.
During this in-person conversation that we had in Felicia’s studio, she shares wisdom to help you navigate some of the landmines that pop in the corporate space. She also shares what it’s been like for her being a Black woman in corporate, and walks through how advice like “be your authentic self” and “be more assertive” often applies differently to Black women.
This conversation will not only help you be more smart and strategic about your career - but it’ll hopefully help you be a more empathetic & inclusive human and coworker in the process.
A BIG thanks to Felicia for coming on the show and sharing her wisdom, and be sure to follow her work below:

Building confidence and growing as a leader is HARD work. Your confidence-building journey will require you to say goodbye to old habits and identities, and take new actions that feel exposing, vulnerable, and scary. You may have days where you’re totally doubting yourself and wanting to give up, and in today’s episode I want to remind you just how normal this is and why it’s totally worth it to keep going EVEN WHEN the journey feels a little rough.
My goal is to help you see that you can absolutely handle ANY rough patch that gets thrown at you and that it’s worth staying committed to going after your dreams.

If you want to sound more confident when you speak EVEN if you feel nervous or insecure, today’s episode is for you. I want to free you of any perfectionist expectations that you might have around needing to feel 100% confident in order to exude confidence when you speak.
The truth is, strong communicators know how to sound confident even when nervousness, fear, or doubt pops up inside of them. These things do NOT have to get in the way of you sounding confident, and with the right tools, you can shine even during those wobbly moments of self-doubt. These tools are something YOU can learn to adopt, too, and in today’s episode I’m teaching you how.

You don’t need to be 100% perfect in order to make a powerful impression on your audience when you speak. In fact, you’ll get way more bang for your buck if you focus your attention away from trying to be perfect, and onto the things that actually matter..
In today’s episode, I’m walking you through the 1 key ingredient that’ll help you be compelling when you speak. Spoiler: it does NOT require you to be, feel, or sound perfect (like, at all.)
I can’t wait for you to let go of the high-pressure, perfectionist expectations and adopt this brand new perspective that’ll feel like a RELIEF and that’ll change the way you view communication.
