Build Your Brave Career for Women in Tech

Listener question: I know I'm a direct person, but I'm being told I'm aggressive. How do I know the difference? 

I have personal experience with this topic in two different different ways and suggestions of how to navigate them: 
  • First, you need to ask for specific examples of situations in which you were labeled “aggressive.” 
  • Then, you need to explore what type of discomfort you want to choose: shifting your communication or allowing others to feel discomfort. 
  • Finally, you get to decide who you want to be in each situation, including changing your situation.

What is Build Your Brave Career for Women in Tech?

Women in tech are just stressed out, overworked, overlooked, and underpaid, right? NOPE! Not around here. Around here we build the skill of bravery to stress less, work less, and then earn more as women in tech.

At this point in your career, you're more educated, skilled, and experienced than most of your colleagues, but you are also more stressed, working more, and are pretty sure you’re underpaid. And you are done accepting the status quo. You are ready to get what you’ve already earned and then grow your career even further…without burning out. You don’t know how you’re going to do it (yet!) but you suspect the process will require you to be braver.
