Get Out of Your Head and Into the World with Kelli Thompson

from Ignite Your Confidence with Karen Laos · host Kelli Thompson

Tangible Takeaways:Women often don’t speak up because we think we need more experience, education, seniority, or fill-in-the-blank before we share our voice in the room. It’s a lie: speak up now! The men don’t wait. Why should you?When seeking to improve your confidence, copying another person’s style doesn’t work. It can make you feel awkward and inadequate. You need to find confidence from within.How do you want to make people feel when you speak up? Knowing your values will help you guide this.How are you speaking up on what is yours to say? When we’re drowning in a sea of voices, we need to pause and assess: what do you own? What do you bring to the table? Once you have clarity, speak up!We need more women leaders in the rooms where decisions are made to increase confidence in the women around us. That means you!Doubt creeps in when you’re stepping outside of your comfort zones. Learn to acknowledge your doubt without criticizing it. We've never been able to criticize ourselves into confidence.A great deal of confidence comes from saying “no” to things we don't want. About Kelli:Kelli Thompson is a women’s leadership coach and speaker who helps women advance to the rooms where decisions are made.

Kelli Thompson remembers when she looked around the room and realized the same people were speaking up over and over…they were all men. She thought, “These women should be speaking up more!” when it hit her: that included her. Kelli lived much of her career in silence, always believing she needed more experience, education, or time to gain the right to speak up. It was a lie. Listen to Kelli’s amazing journey to finding her voice, and how you can begin your journey, too.
