Elevate Your Differentiator: R.A.I.S.E. Framework Part 5

How to Get What You Want ·

2026/03/10

You’ve recognized the moment. You’ve aligned. You’ve inserted value. You’ve supported others. Now it’s time to elevate. In this final part of the R.A.I.S.E. framework, I’m challenging you to stop leaving your growth up to interpretation. Silence inhibits opportunity. If you don’t anchor your value and raise your hand, someone else will. Elevate is about understanding your differentiator, naming your ROI, and making it easier for others to see where you belong. You’ll walk away clear on how to...

Support Multiplies Your Influence: R.A.I.S.E....

How to Get What You Want ·

2026/03/03

Influence isn’t just built when you speak. It’s built when you choose who and what you reinforce. In this part of the RAISE framework, I’m talking about SUPPORT and why lifting someone else in the moment is one of the most strategic moves you can make. This isn’t about being agreeable. It’s about being intentional with your voice. When you consistently support the right ideas and the right people, trust compounds. And so does your influence. In this episode, I’ll cover: How reinforcing others...

Insert Your Value Before They Move On Without You:...

2026/02/24

You know that moment when you stay quiet even though you had something to add? It feels safe in the moment, but it costs you more than you think. Staying silent doesn’t just slow your momentum. It keeps the room from seeing your value. This episode is all about what it really means to insert. To speak, contribute, and take up space in the right moments. Not because you want credit. Because the room needs your perspective. I’m sharing one of the hardest lessons I’ve learned about silence and h...

2026/02/17

Being right doesn’t make you influential. If you've ever walked away from a conversation wondering why your idea didn’t land, or worse, why someone went silent, you’re not alone. Today we’re talking about the A in RAISE: Align. This step is all about learning to shift your perspective before you speak so your message actually connects. This episode gets personal. I’ll share one moment I still cringe about years later and what I wish I’d done differently. If you’ve ever been blindsided by some...

How to Get What You Want ·

2026/02/10

People can't choose you if you're invisible. And when you're silent, people think you're satisfied. This is the first episode in my five-part RAISE framework series, and we’re starting with something most people completely overlook: the moment the stakes quietly shift. You can’t advocate for yourself if you don’t even recognize it’s time. I’ll share the exact moment I learned this the hard way and why recognizing these subtle shifts is the first step to building real influence at work. In thi...

Stop Waiting for Permission

2026/02/03

If you’re waiting for someone to hand you the next opportunity, this one’s for you. We don’t always realize how often we hold ourselves back, telling ourselves it’s not our role, we’re not ready, or we don’t want to look pushy. The problem? Silence gets mistaken for satisfaction. This episode is a wake-up call to notice the invisible rules you’ve absorbed and start challenging the ones that no longer serve you. I’m sharing how to move from observer to advocate, use curiosity as a powerful too...

Rewriting Your Relationship with No

How to Get What You Want ·

2026/01/27

Most of us hear no and take it personally. We shut down. We see it as the end of the road instead of the beginning of a conversation. But what if no could actually be a place to start? In this episode, I’m sharing how to shift the way you hear and respond to no so you can stop backing down and start getting curious. This shift will change how you negotiate, how you lead, and how you advocate for what you want. It’s time to get comfortable with resistance and reframe it as data, not defeat. In...

You are not meant to do this alone. If you’ve been trying to grow your career by working harder, waiting your turn, or following the standard process, this is the episode you didn’t know you needed. I’m sharing why the right people in your corner change everything, and how most of us wait too long or choose the wrong ones.

You don’t need to feel ready to start. You just need to start. That’s exactly what Sarah Barnes-Humphrey did when her life and career imploded overnight. In this conversation, Sarah opens up about what it took to rebuild her confidence from scratch and how she used small steps, side hustles, and her own voice to get there. We talk about what it really means to be seen, and why self-worth isn’t something you wait to feel. It’s something you create. Today, Sarah is the host of the Blended podca...

How to Lead When Confidence Wanes

How to Get What You Want ·

2026/01/06

If confidence were constant, leadership would be easy. But it’s not. One moment you feel solid, the next you’re second-guessing everything. That shift can throw off your presence, your voice, even your ability to ask for what you need. In this episode, I’m breaking down why that happens, what it means about your leadership (hint: it’s not a flaw), and how to lead yourself through those moments. Confidence isn’t fixed, and the more you understand that, the more prepared you’ll be to show up th...

Build Career Options Before You Need Them

2025/12/30

If your role changed tomorrow, would you have options or just panic? Most people assume their company will guide their career. That someone, somewhere, is thinking about their growth. But here's the truth: no one is planning your next move but you. In this episode, I’m sharing a core negotiator mindset shift: build your BATNA before you need it. You’ll hear what a senior leader told me about how he evaluates his team’s preparedness, and why confidence doesn’t come from certainty. It com...

Are You Diluting Your Power Without Realizing It?

It’s not just what you ask for. It’s how you ask for it. In this episode, I’m walking through three deceptively simple strategies that have helped countless women shift how they show up, how they’re perceived, and how confidently they navigate their work. If you’ve ever walked away from a meeting thinking, I could have handled that differently, this is for you. We’re talking about silence, framing, and the ask. These aren’t nice-to-haves. They’re everyday negotiation tools that sharpen your i...

Why Smart Women Miss Opportunities

How to Get What You Want ·

2025/12/16

Sometimes we know exactly what we want, but we don’t raise our hand. We hesitate. We wait. And the opportunity passes us by. In this episode, I’m talking about what holds us back from stepping up, why hesitation costs more than we think, and how to catch ourselves in the moments we stay small. Smart women miss out. Not because they’re unqualified. Because they don’t prepare for the moment when opportunity quietly appears. Let’s change that. You’ll walk away knowing what to look for, wha...

When Your Boss Pulls Away, Is It You or Them?

One day you’re having regular one-on-ones with your boss, and the next? Silence. Fewer meetings. Less context. No feedback. It’s easy to assume it’s personal, but is it? In this episode, I’m talking about what’s really going on when a leader suddenly gets quiet and how to manage up without spiraling into insecurity. If you’ve ever felt like your boss’s behavior changed overnight, this conversation will help you step back, zoom out, and approach the situation with clarity and confidence. You’l...

How Confidence Changes the Conversation

How to Get What You Want ·

2025/12/02

Ever seen someone walk into a room and instantly command it, without saying a word? That’s confidence. Not ego, not arrogance. Just belief. And belief is leverage. In this episode, I’m talking about the power of calibrated confidence—why it influences others, how it opens up opportunities, and what it actually looks like in a negotiation. You don’t have to fake it. But you do have to find it, own it, and use it. Whether you're walking into a high-stakes meeting or making an ask that makes you...

Are You Leaving or Leading?

2025/11/25

Most people put all their focus on the new job when they leave a role. But if that’s where your attention ends, you’re missing a huge opportunity. I want to show you how to leave well, not just logistically, but strategically. In this episode, I’m walking you through a real example of how one woman made a career move with intention, influence, and grace. Because how you exit matters just as much as how you show up. Your influence doesn’t end when your badge turns in. If you’re planning a move...

You’re doing well at work, but something changes. A layoff, a canceled meeting, your boss goes quiet. And suddenly, your confidence takes a hit. That’s scarcity creeping in. In this episode, I’m unpacking what it looks like when fear takes the wheel, even when your role is secure. I’ll share real client stories, personal reflections, and the ripple effects that happen when scarcity starts showing up in how we lead, communicate, and make decisions.

You don’t need a perfect plan. You need a practiced one. Whether it’s a big presentation, a negotiation, or a quick meeting that could escalate fast, how you prepare can make or break the outcome. In this episode, I’m talking about the real reason women get sidelined in high-stakes conversations and how to train yourself to stay grounded, focused, and agile no matter what comes up.

How to Receive Feedback and Actually Use It

2025/10/28

Last week we talked about how to give feedback that actually lands. This week, we’re flipping it. Are you getting the kind of feedback that helps you grow? And more importantly, are you using it? The higher you go in your career, the harder it gets to hear the truth. People assume you’ve got it figured out. They hold back. And unless you’re actively inviting feedback and knowing what to do with it, you miss critical opportunities to grow and evolve your brand as a leader. In this episode, I’m...
