Podcasts about speaking up

In this episode of Workday Playdate, Erin explores why speaking up at work has far less to do with competence and far more to do with confidence. If you've ever left a meeting thinking, "I should have said something," you're not alone—and you're probably more prepared than you think. If you've ever had the perfect idea thirty seconds too late, watched someone else say what you were thinking, or struggled to find your voice in meetings, this conversation is for you. Using improv principles and practical strategies, Erin shares how to stop disappearing on the back line and start contributing with more confidence, more quickly, and more consistently. Inside This Episode: Speaking Up Is Usually a Confidence Issue, Not a Competence Issue: Most people already know what they want to say, they just hesitate when the moment arrives. Erin explores why the gap between thinking and speaking is often driven by fear, not ability. Silence Feels Safe, But It Can Make You Invisible: Staying quiet may protect you from saying the wrong thing, but it can also prevent others from seeing your ideas, expertise, and leadership potential. Early and frequent participation changes how people experience you. Confidence Is Built Through Reps, Not Perfection: The goal isn't to feel ready before you contribute. The goal is to contribute and let confidence catch up. Erin shares why speaking up is a skill built through practice, not personality. The SPEAK Framework Makes Participation Easier: Erin introduces the improv-inspired SPEAK framework to help you contribute more naturally in meetings: Set up the scene, Preload your line, Enter early, Anchor the room, and Keep building. Consistency Changes Your Identity: Speaking up once feels brave. Speaking up repeatedly changes how you see yourself and how others see you. Confidence isn't built in a single moment; it's built in patterns. What to Do Now: Set Up the Scene: Before your next meeting, identify one idea, question, or perspective you want to contribute before the conversation begins. Preload Your Line: Prepare a simple opener such as, "One thing that stands out to me is..." or "I'd like to build on that idea..." so you're not starting from zero when the moment arrives. Enter Early: Challenge yourself to speak within the first ten minutes of your next meeting. Momentum is easier to maintain than it is to create. Anchor the Room: Remember that your contribution doesn't just help you—it creates permission for others to participate, ask questions, and share ideas too. Keep Building: Confidence is earned through repetition. Every time you speak up, you're collecting evidence that your voice belongs in the room.

Speaking up doesn't have to create conflict. In fact, it may be the key to building stronger relationships. Stacy talks with psychotherapist and author Tonya Lester to explore why so many women struggle to ask for what they need, set healthy boundaries, and use their voice without guilt. Together, they discuss people pleasing, emotional intimacy, communication, and how courageous conversations can strengthen relationships at home, at work, and everywhere in between.

We felt we were completely empty. Go reserve tickets now and leave him standing there alone on the stage. What do you say?我们感觉自己完全空虚了。现在就去订票，让他一个人站在舞台上。你说呢？Call it the TikTok phenomenon. A call to action on the social network may have contributed to lower than expected turnout at a recent Trump rally.这可以称为TikTok现象，社交网络上的行动号召可能导致近期特朗普集会上的到场人数低于预期。In Nashville, six teenagers organized a march against police brutality that drew a crowd of nearly 10,000.在纳什维尔，六名青少年组织了一场反对警察暴行的游行，吸引了近万人参加。How did they get the word out? Instagram. Today's youth are speaking up using what they know best: social media.他们是如何传播消息的？Instagram。如今的年轻人正运用他们最熟悉的方式发声：社交媒体。I think overall technology has really been a driving force for us, having those things that already connect us and then kind of trying to figure out how we can manipulate these things, how we can use them to our advantage.我认为总体而言，技术确实是推动我们前进的动力，有了那些已经将我们联系起来的事物，然后再去思考我们如何能够操控这些事物，如何利用它们为我们谋利。Here in New York City, Jessica Rosario and her peers have been busy rallying their community around online voter registration.在纽约市，杰西卡·罗萨里奥和同伴们一直忙于围绕在线选民登记动员他们的社区。We wanted to really create a space for digital democracy.我们想要真正为数字民主创造一个空间。Sharing resources and building online coalitions with other like-minded organizations are key.与其他志同道合的组织共享资源和建立在线联盟是关键。There's nothing better than coming together in a group and just really talking about what's necessary and then splitting up and creating those tools so that we could share it out to our communities.没有什么比聚在一起，真正讨论必要之事，然后分头行动去制作那些工具，以便我们能将其分享给我们的社区更好的了。Digital activism isn't new but young people today are making more use of it.数字行动主义并不新鲜，但如今的年轻人正在更多地利用它。Rosario helped create digital toolkits that supporters could use to push for legislative action in the stateSenate.罗萨里奥帮助创建了数字工具包，支持者可以利用这些工具包在州参议院推动立法行动。People could click on it and it would automatically open up their Twitter with like a pre-written tweet that we had created.人们可以点击它，然后它会自动打开他们的推特，显示一条我们预先写好的推文。And just in a second, you could send that. It tags the elected officials, telling them exactly what the legislation name is and why we were demanding it.转眼间，你可以发送它，它会标记出当选官员，明确告知他们立法名称以及我们要求此项立法的原因。Rosario believes the Twitter storm helped result in a section of New York's civil rights law being repealed.罗萨里奥认为，这场推特风暴有助于促使纽约州民权法中的某一条款被废除。We created that in just a matter of I want to say hours to a day.我们仅用了几个小时到一天的时间就完成了那个。Others are repurposing existing platforms like Twitch, a livestreaming site for gamers that recently has become a place to catch protests as they happen on the ground.其他人正在重新利用现有的平台，如Twitch——一个游戏玩家的直播网站，最近已成为实时捕捉地面抗议活动的地方。For 21-year-old Rosario who falls squarely in the Gen Z demographic, they're still in appreciation for old-school technology.对于正好属于Z世代人群的21岁的罗萨里奥来说，他们仍然很欣赏老派技术。Text isn't always the best. If you have a lot to say, you want to hear people's emotions when you're like telling them news. I love phone calls way better than text messages.短信并不总是最好的。如果你有很多话要说，你会希望在告知消息时听到对方的情绪。比起短信，我更喜欢打电话。For these digital natives, getting everyone's attention is all about the online and offline connections.对这些数字原住民来说，吸引所有人的注意力关键在于线上与线下的连接。

In this episode of the InspirED Podcast, Andrea De La Cerda explores why so many women struggle with negotiation and why the challenge has less to do with confidence than with lifelong conditioning. She explains how women are often taught to prioritize likability over self-advocacy, making it difficult to negotiate compensation, pricing, boundaries, and opportunities. Andrea reframes negotiation as a conversation about alignment rather than confrontation and shares practical strategies to communicate value with greater clarity, confidence, and authority.

In this episode of Building Doors, host Lauren Karan sits down with Ben Cryan, founder of Praxis Engineering, Axesse, and Carbon Trace, for a powerful conversation about resilience, engineering, data, AI, and the future of project delivery in construction and infrastructure.At 31, Ben's life changed in an instant after a surfing accident left him facing 18 months in hospital, more than 55 operations, three months unconscious in intensive care, two strokes, and a kidney transplant donated by his mother. Doctors told him he may never walk again. But Ben refused to let that moment define him. One step at a time, he fought his way back to walking, back to engineering, and eventually into building businesses that are helping reshape how the industry understands cost, carbon, risk, and better design decisions.Ben shares how his recovery taught him the importance of community, asking for help, and never giving up. He also explains why data has always been central to the way he thinks as an engineer, and how structured project data can help teams reduce rework, improve decision-making, understand cost and carbon earlier, and create better outcomes across major infrastructure projects.Tune in for a deeply human, practical, and forward-looking conversation about what happens when resilience meets innovation — and why the future of construction will depend not just on AI, but on better data, better frameworks, and the courage to think differently.What You'll Learn in This Episode:Resilience, Recovery, and Rebuilding:- How Ben's surfing accident changed his life and career- What 18 months in hospital taught him about people, family, and community- Why Ben never wanted sympathy, and what it took to return to engineeringNever Giving Up:- How Ben rebuilt his life and career after being told he may never walk again- Why his businesses are shaped by the same mindset that carried him through recovery- The role determination, patience, and courage play in both life and entrepreneurshipMental Health, Speaking Up, and Asking for Help:- Why putting a problem out into the world is the first step to solving it- How asking for help shaped Ben's career in engineering and business- The importance of openness, honesty, and support in high-pressure industriesBuilding Businesses After Setbacks:- The reality of building an engineering consultancy and two technology platforms- Why rejection, resilience, and persistence are part of entrepreneurship- How Ben turned personal adversity into a drive to solve industry problemsData, Design, and Better Engineering Decisions:- Why “the data tells a story”- How structured data can help engineers understand cost and carbon in real time- Why early visibility of project data can reduce rework and improve design outcomesAI, Construction, and the Right Framework:- Why companies should not build AI for the sake of AI- The importance of getting the data framework right before adopting AI- How AI can support engineers by helping them filter complex information and make better decisionsReducing Cost, Carbon, and Project Risk:- How better data can help teams understand cost risk earlier in the design phase- Why embodied carbon needs to be considered alongside cost- The opportunity to deliver better infrastructure with more certainty and controlThe Human Cost of Poor Project Tools:- How rework affects design teams, project timelines, and people's wellbeing- Why better systems can help reduce unnecessary pressure on engineers- How technology can free up time for deeper thinking, creativity, and better solutionsThe Future of Engineering and Construction:- Why AI will not change construction overnight- How engineers can lean into change without losing the fundamentals- Why the industry needs to think differently if it wants to deliver better projectsKey Quotes from Ben Cryan:- “Once we put a problem out into the world, we can actually solve it.”- “I've never wanted sympathy for my accident. I've never wanted to be treated differently. I just wanna be normal.”- “The data tells a story.”- “Never giving up is so powerful.”- “Building a small engineering consultancy is hard. Building two tech startups is even harder.”- “Don't build AI for the sake of AI.”- “Things don't change overnight, and our industry's not gonna change overnight.”- “I made a career out of asking for help.”About Our Guest:Ben Cryan is a civil engineer, founder, and entrepreneur with more than 25 years of experience in linear infrastructure design. He is the founder of Praxis Engineering, Axesse, and Carbon Trace. Through his work, Ben is helping the construction and infrastructure sectors use structured data to better understand cost risk, embodied carbon, design decisions, and project outcomes.

She Asked Her CIO for a New Challenge at Lunch. Got a "Poison Chalice" Role. Flew to Japan in December 2019. Beat COVID by Three Weeks. PVH VP Shatabdi on Small Acts of Courage With Big Consequences. At a lunch with her CIO, she asked a simple question: "Is there a specific role where you need help? I'm ready to take a new challenge, even change my domain completely." The answer was an invitation to lead PVH's global SAP/ERP transformation across Japan, Hong Kong, Taiwan, China, and North America. She had no team in Asia Pacific. She had less than two months to build one remotely from the United States. People in the room called it a poison chalice. She flew to Japan in December 2019, got the team in place, flew home in January 2020. COVID hit weeks later. She had made it by the skin of her teeth. That is one story. But Shatabdi, VP of Global Application Engineering Services at PVH Corp — home of Tommy Hilfiger and Calvin Klein — believes the more important stories are the small ones. The under-60-second moments. The ones that most senior leaders stay quiet through. In this episode, she shares both kinds. You'll learn: A woman in a meeting quietly mentioned her son kept missing his classes because someone kept scheduling meetings after 5 PM. Shatabdi backed her up in under a minute. That intervention spread into a best practice across PVH's global time zones including Hong Kong and Bangalore. Why she credits a single direct ask at a CIO lunch for the entire trajectory of her VP career, and what she said that made the difference between getting an opportunity and being overlooked. How she heard people call her new role a "poison chalice" and responded by using their doubt as fuel: "If my leaders believe in me, I should believe in myself." What happened when a co-op intern named Christopher walked into her office and told her the access request process could be simplified to save significant man hours — and added that an AI solution could auto-fill the whole thing. She was amazed. She calls it reverse mentorship. The moment her longtime colleague Brian McGrath introduced her in a room by saying "if she's in the meeting, I know it's going to go positive" — and why that kind of public acknowledgment primes an entire room to actually listen to you. The "we vs. I" leadership model she uses: collaborative "we" language for collective goals, firm "I" language for deadlines and deliverables. And why learning when to use which one took her longer than developing either. How she structures team communication across three levels — broad town halls, staff meetings that start with "how's your family?", and one-on-ones where she opens up first about her own week — to build the kind of trust that makes honest feedback land well in both directions. About Shatabdi: Vice President of Global Application Engineering Services at PVH Corp, the fashion company behind Tommy Hilfiger and Calvin Klein. Shatabdi leads a global team across North America, Europe, Hong Kong, and Bangalore. She previously led e-commerce at Hitachi Consulting and at PVH before pivoting into global ERP transformation leadership.

Episode 3044: Steve Pavlina explores how being taught to stay quiet can suppress needs, desires, and feelings, leading to missed opportunities and unnecessary isolation. By learning to speak honestly and at the right moment, he shows how authenticity can deepen relationships, solve problems faster, and create a more fulfilling life. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://stevepavlina.com/blog/2020/04/being-too-quiet/ Quotes to ponder: "Sharing late is at least better than not sharing. When you see how many opportunities you're missing due to silence, it's good motivation to be more courageous and speak up sooner." "Is the silence stress-inducing? Are your thoughts and feelings churning over unresolved issues? If so, then speak up." "Silence can be a virtue, but keeping quiet can be really problematic if you overdo it."

This week on The Protectors Podcast, Mike and Mark sit down with nationally known investigative reporter John Solomon - who also happens to be Mark's brother - for a timely conversation about the growing state of fraud, corruption, and abuse in our country. John has spent his career exposing wrongdoing, following the facts, and shining a light on systems that too often go unchecked. In this episode, he explains why fraud is not just a government or law enforcement problem - it is something that affects every taxpayer, every community, and every citizen.Whether it is government waste, benefit fraud, corruption, or suspicious activity hiding in plain sight, John reminds us that everyday people can play an important role in protecting their communities. This is an important episode for anyone who cares about accountability, integrity, and protecting what belongs to the American people.The Protectors Podcast - Empowering People, Exposing Fraud.GUEST CONTACT INFO:Just The News Podcast: https://justthenews.com/podcastsJust The News LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/just-the-news/posts/?feedView=all________________________________IAFCI CONTACT INFO:IAFCI Website: https://iafci.org/Phone: 916-939-5000Advertising Opportunities and Guest Appearance: IAFCIProtectorspodcast@gmail.com

In this episode of the Story Engine Podcast, I sit down with Carolee Moore, an expert storyteller who helps corporate leaders and subject matter experts find their voice, get on the right podcasts, and turn their visibility into real business growth. What stood out to me most is how Carolee doesn't just focus on booking interviews—she helps people reconnect with their authentic voice after years of operating inside corporate expectations. We explore how storytelling, when done right, becomes the bridge between deep expertise and real influence. Carolee shares her journey from growing up in Jamaica surrounded by storytelling, to navigating corporate America, to building (and walking away from) a successful marketing agency that no longer aligned with her. We also dive into how podcast guesting can fast-track credibility in B2B spaces, why so many experts struggle with visibility despite their experience, and how finding your voice can literally "change the vote" in the rooms that matter most.

Today on Table Talk with BBYOInsider we are giving an in-depth look at this week's parsha—Parsha Korach—as part of the Simchat Torah Challenge.

Comedian Grace Campbell used to call herself crazy before anyone else could get in there first. Now, Grace wonders whether telling herself this story was affecting how other people interacted with her...In this chat, Fearne and Grace explore how your inner self-talk will impact how others perceive you. So, how has Grace re-framed her ADHD, OCD, and anxieties? And given Grace has spent a lot of time seeking male validation, how has she become ok with so many men finding her “annoying”?Grace also reflects on her childhood, growing up amongst the political elite thanks to her dad Alastair Campbell. She explains how she learnt to speak up for herself by watching the powerful men around her.Plus, why life is too short for bad sex and a lack of orgasms!You can get your tickets for Grace's stand up tour here!If you liked this episode of Happy Place, you might also like:Gillian AndersonFlorence BarkMiranda July Hosted on Acast.

So, our Natural Order Of Things mini series continues...Almost everyone does this... they have an idea for a business on Monday and they're trying to market it by Tuesday, having sailed right past the four layers that would have made the marketing actually work. And then they wonder why nobody's listening.This week we're on layer five: Speaking Up. The marketing layer. And I won't let you near it until the layers before it are solid, because marketing built on shaky foundations is basically just shouting.Most marketing advice was never written for businesses like ours. It was written for the ones optimising for volume, virality and the algorithm, where the offer is interchangeable and the only goal is to be seen by more people than the competition. That isn't us. We're building something quieter and far more durable, and it's built on trust.So this episode is about marketing the way it should actually feel for a soul-led business. Knowing your people so well you could finish their sentences. Choosing one or two platforms and showing up there fully, instead of repurposing yourself into the ground across six. And understanding the four phases every bit of marketing has to move through, whatever channel you happen to love: visibility, lead generation, nurture, and the honest invitation to work with you.I also get into consistency, which is easily the most misunderstood word in marketing. It is not posting every day. It is not punishing yourself for sending the email on a Wednesday instead of a Tuesday. It's showing up reliably and recognisably as you, for long enough that people trust you're not about to vanish on them. I've been doing this podcast for four years. The first year brought me virtually no business at all. Marketing works, but it asks you to back yourself and then give it long enough to prove you right.Next week, layer six: Honest Invitation. The sales layer. Because once the right people are raising their hands, the only question left is whether you can invite them in clearly and warmly, without it ever feeling like they're being sold at.Mentioned in this episodeThe Natural Order of Things, the book.

Gustavo Razzetti once sat next to a woman at a corporate conference, judging the regional VP presenting on stage until she revealed that was her husband. Instead of backpedaling he apologised, then stood by every word. That instinct of owning the mess without pretending he didn't mean it is the backbone of his work.He has spent decades inside corporate and agency life watching great ideas die because of terrible culture. He now works with teams on what he calls conversational debt: the gap between what people nod through in meetings and what they actually act on. His research found that when people are asked why others don't speak up, the answer is fear, but when asked why they themselves don't, the answer becomes pointlessness: a learned belief that nothing will change anyway.Gustavo refuses to live that way. He fires clients before the work even starts if the fit is wrong. His rule is that he'd rather lose his job over one conversation than avoid a hundred — and he did.We talked about the power dynamics that shape what is considered professionalism, the most dangerous type of silence in organisations and why we should all drop the invisible contract nobody handed us and stop waiting for permission to speak.Links to learn more about Gustavo Razzetti:Forward Talk (Gustavo's new book)WebsiteSubstackWorkshopsAny thoughts?

That flash of recognition is what a worldview does, and it's the difference between being remembered and being white noise.This week we're into layer four of our 7 part mini series, The Natural Order Of Things: your worldview. Your thought leadership. Your distinctive, lived, hard-won take on your corner of the world.

In this episode of the Breast Cancer Now podcast, Jay shares her journey working in cancer research to receiving a diagnosis of breast cancer herself. Jay opens up about discovering a lump in 2018 at age 47, navigating a stage 3 diagnosis, and dealing with chemotherapy, surgery and radiotherapy. Drawing on her science background, she also explains how understanding the system helped her advocate for herself and regain some sense of control. She reflects on the emotional realities of cancer, and the role of family, culture and her community in her experience. Jay also speaks about the challenges within the South Asian community, where cancer is often a taboo subject, and highlights the urgent need for better awareness and representation. Jay is now a strong advocate for health literacy and inclusion, and tells Laura about her dedication to empowering women to listen to their bodies, ask questions, and speak up in healthcare settings.Breast Cancer Now support & information: https://breastcancernow.orgClinical trials database: https://clinicaltrials.govKey topics:01:11 Let's get to know Jay02:19 Jay's background working in clinical trials03:52 Jay is diagnosed with breast cancer08:59 The loneliness of a breast cancer diagnosis and treatment12:12 What Jay learned from her cancer diagnosis16:19 The importance of self advocacy and health literacy20:43 How Jay approached telling her parents about her cancer diagnosis26:53 Jay 8 years on from diagnosis28:38 Troubles with tamoxifen31:33 Ways Jay deals with life after cancer treatment34:45 Working towards better research representation in under-represented communities37:44 Jay's work educating people about breast cancer40:51 Cancer in the South Asian community42:59 Improving cancer outcomes in Black and South Asian populations

Kate Lowry was fresh out of college and working at McKinsey when she saw a colleague do something she believed was seriously wrong -- something that could constitute blackmail, with another employee's ability to stay in the country hanging in the balance. Her instinct was immediate and absolute: this is wrong, and I'm going to tell everyone. She reported it and criticized the person sharply in reviews. Episode page for video, links, and more It backfired. She got marked down for not being a "team player" and carried that mark on her record for the rest of her time at the firm. The lesson Kate draws isn't that she should have stayed silent. It's that good intentions and zeal are not the same as effective action. The best ways to help people, she found, are often more sophisticated -- and when you're up against sophisticated actors who hold power over you, you need to bring equal sophistication. Kate is a CEO coach, venture capitalist, and author of Unbreakable: How to Thrive Under Fear-Based Leaders. In this episode, she and host Mark Graban get into the difference between high standards and fear-based leadership, why psychological safety is about mutual trust rather than comfort, and how the quiet, "West Coast nice" version of fear-based leadership is harder to spot than the cartoonish yelling kind. Kate also explains her concept of reading a leader's "emotional age" to predict their behavior, and offers practical tactics for anyone stuck under a leader who rules through fear.

In this powerful Breakthrough session, Thais Gibson sits down with Steve to explore the hidden emotional patterns behind dismissive avoidant attachment, conflict avoidance, and emotional disconnection. Through real-life examples from Steve's marriage, they uncover how childhood experiences shape adult relationships, why avoidants often struggle with vulnerability, and how emotional intimacy is built through sharing your inner world instead of withdrawing from it. Together, they unpack the stories we tell ourselves during conflict, how unresolved wounds influence our reactions, and practical tools for communicating needs in a way that creates connection instead of distance. If you've ever struggled to express your feelings, felt misunderstood, or found yourself pulling away during relationship challenges, this episode offers invaluable insights for creating healthier, more secure relationships.

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of Marketing Espresso, I'm joined by media trainer, author and communication expert Theresa Miller for a conversation that feels incredibly relevant right now.We dive into why speaking up matters more than ever in a world filled with AI-generated content, misinformation and constant noise online. Theresa's book, Speak Up: How to Be a Successful Presenter and Media Spokesperson, explores how people across every industry can communicate more clearly, confidently and effectively - whether that's on stage, in the media, online or inside their workplace.One of the biggest themes throughout this episode is the idea that if people with genuine experience and expertise stay quiet, less qualified voices fill the space. We unpack why so many people hesitate to speak publicly, share opinions or put themselves forward, even when they have years of valuable lived experience behind them.We also talk about: Why public speaking is still one of people's biggest fears  How imposter syndrome stops experts from sharing what they know  Why audiences are craving real human connection again  The rise of AI content and declining trust online  Why in-person events and conversations are becoming more valuable  How to communicate clearly without relying on jargon  Media training and communication tips for business owners  Why understanding your audience changes everything  The importance of intentional communication and storytelling Theresa shares practical communication frameworks that can help anyone become a stronger speaker and communicator, including how to structure your ideas clearly, how to make your message memorable, and why “what's in it for me?” is the question every audience is subconsciously asking.One part of this conversation I particularly loved was Theresa's perspective on communication as service. Instead of focusing on ourselves and worrying about judgement or criticism, she encourages people to think about how their knowledge, stories or experience could genuinely help someone else.We also explore how communication impacts marketing, leadership and business visibility. In a world where AI is making generic content easier than ever to create, authentic communication and real expertise are becoming even more valuable.This episode is packed with practical insights for business owners, marketers, leaders, creatives and anyone wanting to communicate with more clarity and confidence.If you've ever struggled with visibility, public speaking, confidence or sharing your expertise online, I think you'll get a lot from this conversation.You can find Theresa's book Speak Up online, in bookstores, on Audible and via her website.Resources & Links from Theresa Miller: Theresa's book and audiobook: Speak Up – Book & Audiobook Theresa's online course: Online Media & Presentation Course Ten tips to nail your media interview: Media Interview Tips Eight attention-grabbing presentation openers: Presentation Openers Guide Connect with Theresa on LinkedIn Follow Theresa on Instagram Find Theresa on DOWNLOAD MY CONTENT PLANNERInstagram @bec_chappellLinkedIn – Bec Chappell If you're ready to work together, I'm ready to work with you and your team.How to work with me:1.

“The person who has always been my uncle, and whenever he comes to the house, I'm running to him. He buys me sweets, this is like my uncle. And then one day they said, oh, this your husband. I'm like, what? At that point I hated myself, I hated my mum because I wanted an adult to fight for me but she just did not have it to fight because she was so scared of my dad.” BBC journalist Megha Mohan speaks to Sierra Leone's first lady, Fatima Bio, about escaping child marriage at the age of 13, rebuilding her life as a refugee in London, and her rise to become one of the country's most outspoken public figures. Since becoming first lady, Bio has transformed the role in Sierra Leone, campaigning publicly on issues including child marriage, sexual violence and period poverty. To supporters, she is a refreshing voice in politics, who speaks up for women and girls, while others say she has overstepped her remit and that she is too vocal and too involved in the running of her husband's party.

Today, I interview Andrea Horvath who struggled to speak up for most of her life due to a fear that using her voice would lead to rejection. She followed expectations, stayed quiet, and avoided conflict, which affected her confidence and ability to express herself.Raised in a strict environment, Andrea learned that questioning the norm could mean being labeled “crazy” and risking connection. She built a stable life with a CPA career and family, but kept her thoughts and voice suppressed for years.When her daughter showed signs something was wrong, her concerns were dismissed. Instead of staying silent, she spent nearly two years seeking answers, choosing to trust her intuition and speak up despite the discomfort.Today, Andrea helps leaders reconnect with their voice and build confidence in how they show up, focusing on self-trust and grounded self-expression in their speaking and leadership.__________________Andrea is a high-performance mentor for corporate leaders and executives seeking measurable and meaningful growth fueled by alignment.For more than two decades, she rose as a CPA and leader in corporate, driving performance at the highest level while learning how to achieve without compromise and hold both success and peace at once.Today, she mentors high-performing, awakened leaders to reach the next level of success in their careers and life from a place of deep alignment and inner authority. Her work combines energetic alignment and strategy to support leaders in elevating their leadership and stepping into greater opportunities.She is also a speaker who works with organizations and teams ready to lead and perform at a higher level without abandoning who they are.__________________Find Andrea here:https://www.linkedin.com/in/andreamhorvath/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC7-V0tlhCwHkNED3kD1G0KAhttps://www.andreahorvath.com/titlepaypeaceform Support the showI'm Dr. Doreen Downing and I help people find their voice so they can speak without fear.

What if the thing holding you back isn't a lack of expertise, but the fact that your voice hasn't caught up to what you know?In this episode, Steve Mellor sits down with Dr. Leslie Gordon, a speech, voice, and accent expert who helps high-performing professionals speak with more confidence, presence, and impact. Leslie introduces the idea of the “growing edge,” a powerful replacement for the word “weakness,” and explains why real growth requires more than mindset. It requires action, repetition, awareness, and the willingness to step into unfamiliar territory.This conversation is for anyone who has ever left a meeting thinking, “I should have said something,” or who knows they have something valuable to contribute but struggles to make their voice match their expertise.Why “growing edge” is more useful than calling something a weakness  Why high performers struggle to speak up, even when they know their stuff  How self-evaluation can help growth or quietly block it  How to work with the inner critic using Leslie's “name it to tame it” strategy  Why presence, breath, and body tension shape how your message lands  Why confidence is built through action, not simply something you either have or don't haveConnect with Dr. Leslie Gordon:Website: https://www.leslie.gordon.speech/lesliegordonspeech.comSend us Fan MailSupport the showConnect with Steve MellorStay connected and keep growing with Steve:LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/steve-mellor-cc/Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/coachstevemellorBook Steve to speak at your next event → www.stevemellorspeaks.comSupport the GrowthReady Podcast by leaving a 5-star rating → Apple Podcasts - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/growthready-podcast/id1406082163Connect with GrowthReadyJoin the community and keep your growth journey going:LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/wearegrowthready/Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/growthreadypodcast/Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/growthreadywithcoachstevemellorOfficial Website - https://growthready.com/----This podcast was produced on Riverside and released via ...

Are you tired of feeling like you have to choose between keeping the peace and being true to yourself in your relationships? Many people mistake silence for harmony, stuffing down their true feelings for fear of conflict, only to wake up one day feeling unheard, unseen, and disconnected. But what if speaking up—being honest about your needs and setting boundaries—was actually the path to deeper connection and intimacy, not the source of division? In this episode, listeners are invited to rethink what it means to be authentic in close relationships, especially when it comes to sharing hard truths or setting limits. You'll hear insights on why self-assertion is not about ruining relationships, but about bringing your whole self into them. By exploring practical strategies, emotional tools, and real-life examples, this conversation guides you in overcoming the fear of rocking the boat—so you can communicate courageously and build relationships where both people feel truly known and valued.

Name Your Emotions: Before raising a difficult topic, identify and share your underlying emotions, such as fear, anxiety, or longing, to increase openness. Set Boundaries with Clarity: Clearly state what is not working for you in the relationship and propose specific changes, avoiding blame or generalizations. Tolerate Unresolved Issues: Accept that not every problem will have an immediate solution and practice tolerating the discomfort of ongoing, in-process conversations. Take Breaks When Activated: When conflict escalates, or emotions run high, pause the conversation and use activities like taking a walk or shower to regulate your nervous system before returning. Use "I" Statements: Use concise, direct language to express your needs and feelings without attacking or criticizing your partner. Reflect on the System: Regularly assess if both partners are contributing to the emotional work and call out patterns where efforts are imbalanced. Model Self-Possession: Take responsibility for your own happiness and choices, setting an example for both yourself and others—including children—about how to live in alignment with your values.   Mentioned Push Back: Live, Love, and Work with Others Without Losing Yourself (*Amazon Affiliate link) (book) About Tonya Lester (Psychology Today) Shifting Criticism For Connected Communication (Free guide) How Being "Difficult" Can Assist Growth & Development In Relationship (ERP 360)   Connect with Tonya Lester Website: tonyalester.com Facebook: facebook.com/tlynnlester/ Instagram: instagram.com/tonyalesterpsychotherapy LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/tonya-lester-b9a3ab14 TikTok: tiktok.com/@tonyalesterlcsw  

Send us Fan MailYour brain is not trying to ruin your dreams, it is trying to keep you safe. That sounds supportive until you realize “safe” often looks like staying quiet in meetings, ghosting your own content calendar, and never asking for the raise, the support, or the clarity you actually need.We unpack what's really happening underneath resistance to showing up online and why it's the same pattern that plays out at work, in leadership, and in relationships. I break down the three most common reasons high-achieving women and creative entrepreneurs hold back: fear of the response, fear of risking the relationship, and fear of looking dumb. Then we get practical. When your mind jumps to the worst case scenario, I'll show you how to solve for it with one powerful question: “Then what?” You'll also hear a real story from my own career about asking for a raise after delivering major results and what I did next when I got the response I didn't expect.From there we move into mindset management and spiritual alignment that actually translates into action: visualizing the best case scenario, “mentally dressing” for the role you want, and cleaning up judgment so you stop negotiating with other people's opinions. You'll leave with journaling prompts you can use today to shift your beliefs, strengthen your voice, and build confidence that isn't dependent on perfect outcomes.If you're ready to stop hiding and start creating new results, press play, then subscribe, share this with a friend who needs a push, and leave a five-star review so more people can find the show.New!!! The Art of Magnetism is your invitation to stop chasing and start attracting.

In this deeply personal episode of The 1000 Hours Outside Podcast, Ginny Yurich talks with Elise Heerde, author of After the Exit, about what happens when families raise concerns in places that are supposed to protect children and are punished instead of heard. Together they explore high-control communities, the weaponization of belonging, and the lasting impact these experiences can have on both kids and families. At its core, this conversation is about child safety and well-being. Elise helps explain why child safety depends on adults being allowed to ask hard questions, trust their instincts, and speak up without fear.

If you've been curious about what it looks like to say what you need to say in practice, today you'll hear from someone who found her outside voice and is using it to create the life she wants. Jessica Carlson has spent years serving others—as a pastor's wife, a mom, a teacher, and now supporting college students in getting the resources they need. Jessica and I first connected over our shared background in high-demand religion, and since we began working together, I've watched her life transform. She learned to speak up messily and imperfectly, and to support herself through hard conversations that once felt impossible. Jessica's journey is a powerful example of how everything can shift when women use their voices, not just for themselves, but for the kind of change they want to see in the world. Here's what we cover:What Jessica's life looked like when she first joined the Stop People Pleasing groupThe power that comes from realizing you get to choose the kind of discomfort you feel in relationshipsWhy the goal isn't always to say no, but to understand you have that option when you need itHow a simple step-by-step process helps you find the right words and practice speaking upJessica's journey of running for public office and the changes she has made by working on this skillJessica Carlson is a university career coach and former high school teacher. She lives in the midwest with her husband of 23 years and 2 children, both in college. She has a bachelor's in English and secondary education and a master's in education. She was raised in a fundamentalist high-demand religious context and then married a Christian pastor through which church experiences compounded the people pleasing she learned at an early age. At her core, she serves people but that service as a wife, mom, teacher, and community member caused her to lose herself. Jessica is a reflective thinker and someone who cares deeply about connection and meaning but has only recently realized that her voice matters and that it is powerful and she can impact systems. She is especially drawn to conversations about how we unlearn the pressure to be everything for everyone, and what it looks like to choose ourselves, sometimes for the first time.Find Jessica here:instagram.com/jess_c7072tiktok.com/@queenbee7072 Find Sara here:sarafisk.coachpages.sarafisk.coach/difficultconversationsinstagram.com/sarafiskcoachfacebook.com/SaraFiskCoachingtiktok.com/@sarafiskcoachyoutube.com/@sarafiskcoaching1333

Allyson Felix has 11 Olympic medals, which makes her the most decorated American track and field athlete in history. But here's the thing—most people know her name because of what happened when she got pregnant. After nearly a decade with her sponsor Nike, they offered her a new contract at 70% less than her previous salary. And when she asked for one thing—protected time to recover from childbirth without performance penalties—they said they wouldn't set that precedent for all female athletes. So, Allyson sat in her daughter's NICU room, watched her tiny baby fighting to come home, and decided to risk everything by going public. In this second episode of our Women of Consequence series, Kelly talks with Allyson about integrity, knowing your worth, and understanding that sometimes you speak up not for yourself but so the next woman doesn't have to fight the same battle. This episode has been made possible by a grant from Ingeborg Initiatives, a social impact platform dedicated to improving maternal health and making it easier to raise a family.
