In this episode, I want to talk about something that lived inside me for a long time: the story I told myself about being “junior.”
Even years into senior roles, I quietly held on to that label — not out loud, but in my head. Until a mentor asked me a question that changed everything.

This is a personal reflection about the quiet ways we diminish ourselves, the comparison traps we fall into, and what happens when we finally choose to see our full experience — and lead from it.

I’ll share:
– How that old story shaped me (and how I let it go)
– Why it’s worth asking “compared to what?”
– What empathy, ownership and truth look like in practice
– Why showing up in your own colours isn’t about outshining — it’s about complementing

✨ I hope this episode invites you to pause and reflect on the stories you carry — and maybe shift the way you speak to yourself.

And if you’re curious whether coaching could support you in your own leadership journey — you’re very welcome to reach out. Let’s explore it together.
