91 | From Self-Doubt to Career Confidence: How Women Get Hired Faster & Lead with Authority featuring Dr. Eric Woodard

If you’ve ever felt stuck, undervalued, or unsure of how to talk about your worth at work, this episode is going to change the way you see yourself — and your career.Today I’m joined by Dr. Eric Woodard, founder of WIN at Work and one of the most practical, grounded voices in modern career development. With more than 10,000 professionals coached, Eric has seen it all — the burnout, the self-doubt, the job search overwhelm, and especially the way working moms underestimate their power.And spoiler alert:You’re not lacking qualifications. You’re lacking acknowledgment of what you already bring to the table.In this conversation, we’re unpacking: ✅ Why working moms over-index on responsibility yet under-index on confidence ✅ The ONE shift that immediately makes you more hireable (and it’s not adding another skill) ✅ Why your resume should absolutely include the word “Mom” and how it becomes a leadership advantage ✅ How to tell career stories that move hiring managers emotionally (because that’s how decisions are made) ✅ The real reason you shouldn’t job search alone and why asking for help is a superpower, not a weakness ✅ How reframing your inner narrative unlocks confidence after time away from the workforce✅ The power of radical self-honesty, compassion, and ditching the “shoulds” for goodEric’s perspective is refreshingly real. He doesn’t tiptoe around the guilt, the pressure, or the invisible labor working moms carry — but he also doesn’t let you hide behind it.He sees the truth: Motherhood doesn’t make you less marketable. It makes you more capable, more resourceful, more emotionally intelligent, and more trustworthy.By the end, you’ll feel clearer, braver, and more ready to advocate for yourself in rooms you once tiptoed into.Your Weekly Takeaway: Replace every “should” with: ✨ I choose to… ✨ I want to… ✨ I get to…Shifting that language shifts your leadership and your life.🔗 Connect with Eric WoodardREADY FOR YOUR NEXT STEP? 🚀 Start Here: Download the FREE 90-Day Raise Strategy and create your personalized plan to confidently position yourself for the raise you've earned.
