Episode #7 with Amy Kiernan on identity shifts around career, leaving Twitter and moving home to Ireland, being visible and notions & Irish famine trauma

In this episode of Becoming BOLD, we dive into Amy Kiernan's journey toward embracing boldness, and she offers incredible advice for anyone looking to do the same. Amy shares her career journey, which started in sales at Hot Press magazine and later was part of Twitter's launch team in Canada. Her decision to leave Twitter after a decade and return to Ireland during COVID marked a significant turning point, prompting her to pursue a Master's in coaching with a focus on confidence. Amy is now innovating a new sales method that blends her extensive experience with a deep understanding of the inner world of salespeople.Our conversation explores crucial themes for personal growth, including the importance of self-awareness, overcoming fear (especially the fear of rejection and judgment, particularly on platforms like LinkedIn), and cultivating a resilient growth mindset. Amy highlights how adopting a learner mindset, inviting curiosity, and recognising that thoughts become reality are key to achieving financial freedom and personal empowerment.I feel this episode will be massively relatable for women entrepreneurs wanting to build a personal brand on LinkedIn. It also gives great advice for anyone looking to step out of their comfort zone and become BOLD.
