How To Advocate For Yourself (And Be Brave Enough To Go After What You Want)

Self-advocacy can feel uncomfortable - especially for women who’ve been taught to be agreeable, grateful, or quiet. But learning to speak up for yourself is one of the most powerful ways to build confidence, self-worth, and a life that actually feels aligned.In this episode of Self-Worth School, I'm joined by Michelle Steiner, who shares her personal journey of self-advocacy through education, work, and life - including navigating learning disabilities, challenging expectations, and learning to use her voice even when it felt scary.Together, we explore what self-advocacy really means (and what it doesn’t), why so many women struggle to ask for what they need, and how bravery, honesty, and self-worth can coexist.In this episode, we cover:- How societal expectations shape our confidence and voice- The difference between being assertive and being aggressive- How to advocate for yourself in both big moments and everyday situations- Why recognising your strengths - alongside your limits - is empowering.Connect with Michelle and learn more about her work here: Blog: www.michellesmission.comFacebook: www.facebook.com/michelle.steiner.493966/ And please give us a rating or share with someone who needs it - thank you!
