#37 | Mastering Career Growth Without Compromising Yourself - with Melody Wilding

Описание: In this episode, I sit down with executive coach and author Melody Wilding to explore what it really means to trust yourself and create success on your own terms. Together, we dive into the complexities of being a high achiever – from breaking free of the "honor roll hangover" to the delicate balance between self-advocacy and humility at work.

Melody shares powerful insights about detoxing from goals that no longer serve us and transforming our relationship with external validation. We explore how true reinvention isn't about becoming someone new, but having the courage to become more of who you already are.

If you're a high achiever who's ever struggled with people-pleasing, setting boundaries, or knowing how to advocate for yourself at work without feeling uncomfortable, this episode offers practical strategies and permission to redefine what success means to you.
