In this powerful, leadership strategist and speaker Sarah Khan dismantles one of the most ingrained forms of conditioning ambitious women face — being the invisible backbone of other people’s success.

Sarah explores how women in midlife have spent decades holding up organizations, leaders, and legacies that rarely hold them back — becoming indispensable but invisible in the process. She unpacks how loyalty, usefulness, and quiet excellence have been weaponized to keep women small, and why recognition, authority, and visibility are not ego, but equity.

Listeners will learn how to:

  • Identify where they’ve been supporting instead of leading
  • Reclaim authorship over their brilliance and contributions
  • Set boundaries that re-educate others on their value
  • Redefine visibility beyond performance
  • Restructure power dynamics to claim credit, compensation, and authority

This is a call to every midlife woman who’s tired of holding up structures that were never built for her. It’s time to stop being the scaffolding of someone else’s legacy — and start building your own.
