Build Your Brave Career for Women in Tech

Can you love your colleagues enough to let them experience the consequences of their behavior?
Women in tech are great at solving problems. But sometimes we leap in to protect others from their errors and shoulder burdens that aren’t ours. It slows down our careers and increases our stress. 

This episode unpacks how stepping back, setting boundaries, and trusting others to handle their responsibilities empowers not just your colleagues but also yourself. You’ll hear real-world strategies to navigate these situations with courage, kindness, and clarity.

Key Takeaways:
  • How societal conditioning impacts women in tech.
  • Why rescuing others is not the same as being a team player or leader.
  • The power of discomfort as a catalyst for growth.
  • How respecting others’ growth creates space for your own.

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.
