Build Your Brave Career with Nicole Trick Steinbach

"The best case scenario of bravely leaning in is when you make empowered, conscious, and unique decisions for your one glorious career and life." - Nicole Trick Steinbach

Listen in for a nuanced conversation about the combination of the “Lean In” concept and the skill of bravery to how you can make choices to build your brave career. 

First, I discuss what the “Lean In” concept is, exploring both the positive and negative aspects of the approach. Then I dive into three specific, anonymous stories from my clients to personify how the concept can impact your career and life decisions.  

Use these stories to reflect on your personal and professional priorities and how you can consciously and effectively take action toward your goals. 

Spoiler alert: The best-case scenario of bravely leaning in is consciously, intentionally, and consistently making brave choices while also building your confidence, resiliency, skills, relationships, and creativity. Use every phase – even the mucky ones – to grow.

Hot topics from this episode:
  • Introduction to the Concept of Lean In, strengthen and weaknesses
  • Bridging Lean In with Career and Life Choices
