(#117) EmpowerHER Q&A: Raises, Promotions, Burnout, Prenups, Boundaries, & Trusting Yourself

In this Q&A episode of the EmpowerHER Podcast, Diana answers common questions from clients and the community on career, relationships, and self-trust. She explains how to ask for a raise by documenting impact, using evidence, timing conversations early, and practicing a script, and why promotions require visibility and clear advocacy not just hard work. She discusses distinguishing burnout from a misaligned job by considering whether time off would restore you, and emphasizes boundaries and nervous system regulation. She reframes prenups/postnups as financial protection and argues a respectful partner should support them, then shares practical ways to “decenter men” through small choices and communication. She offers strategies for saying no at work, outlines why people-pleasing persists despite therapy, and describes confidence and self-trust as skills built through action, small wins, and letting go of societal timelines and comparison.00:28 Asking for a Raise03:07 Getting Promoted Faster05:00 Leave or Burned Out06:54 Prenup Without Guilt08:56 Decenter Men in Love11:31 Saying No at Work13:30 Stop People Pleasing15:09 Building Real Confidence17:13 Stop Comparing Timelines20:54 Trusting Yourself MoreFollow Diana: Work with me: ⁠https://www.coachdianadebolt.com/1-1-coaching Email- [email protected] - https://www.coachdianadebolt.com/ Instagram -  @coachdianadeboltTiktok - @coachdianadeboltIf you loved this episode, rate, review and subscribe!
