Ever felt anxious about negotiating your pay? Wondered why it feels so risky when you already know you’re beyond pulling your weight at work?

Here’s the truth I see as a coach for marginalized leaders who don’t like office politics: We've been taught that asking for what we want is risky. Greedy. Aggressive. Ungracious.

But here's the thing.

Women and minorities aren't bad negotiators. We've just been sold a lie about what negotiation actually is.

In this episode, I'm sharing why I walked away from a six-figure tech career to become my own boss and an independent coach.

And I'm showing you the one mindset shift that changed everything for me and my clients. We're talking sovereignty, locus of control, and why that metaphorical tiara (as in: recognition and respect) you're waiting for? You have to put it on your own head.

Stick around. This one's foundational.
