Description

In this episode, Shivan is joined by Lauren Reeves, Senior BDR Manager at Swap, who shares the emotional weight of building a sales career without ever being internally promoted. From imposter syndrome to self-belief, Lauren opens up about the frustration of being overlooked and the resilience it took to succeed anyway.

They dive into the myths around internal progression, the pressure to prove yourself, and why moving on isn’t always a failure. If you’ve ever questioned your value because recognition didn’t come, this episode is a reminder that your path is still valid and that you can become stronger for it.
