#62 The Biggest Mistake Women Make When Positioning Themselves
About this episode
Positioning yourself for success isn’t rocket science - but it does take strategy. And yet, many women unknowingly make a critical mistake that keeps them overlooked and undervalued.
In this episode, I dive into the single most common - and costly! - mistake women make when trying to position themselves in their careers, businesses, or leadership roles.
Spoiler alert: It’s not about how good you are at your job. It’s about who knows how good you are.
Here’s what you’ll learn in this episode:
👉 Why telling someone your goals once just isn’t enough
👉 The psychology of being remembered - and how to use it to your advantage
👉 How to involve the right people in your journey without feeling pushy
👉 The power of repetition: why clear, consistent communication is your secret weapon
💡 Key takeaway: Positioning yourself is not about luck or waiting for someone to notice you. It’s about creating opportunities by making your ambitions impossible to ignore.
