Business
We’ve talked about imposter syndrome (aka newbie nerves, productive discomfort) and today we are talking about something a little different. While we have noticed that more women in leadership are feeling worthy AND welcome AND confident and not like imposters at all, we still self-edit our words and actions because we worry our confidence will be judged negatively. So in this episode, we consider the question: why do so many confident and successful women leaders worry that their confidence and success is making them look like jerks at work? Key Takeaways: There is a difference between confidence and arrogance. Adaptability is a valuable skill. At the same time, being too adaptable can lead to self-editing, being a chameleon, and a loss of self. Be brave! Be confident! And lift others up with you. *In this episode, we noted the work of leaders Rachel Cargle, Glennon Doyle, Liz Plank, and Tara’s pal Fiona Proctor. Thank you to all of them!
