Does the next promotion, increased salary, or pivoting to a new career path in a more senior role seem out of reach? Or maybe you want to increase your visibility as a trusted leader in your field, but you can't seem to get there? I understand the mental blocks and the whirlwind of emotions you are feeling! In this episode, I am sharing my story and the highs and lows of my ten-year career.
