Why you should stop trying to be nice at work
Description
Welcome to my first solo episode! That's right - no guest today. I'll still be hosting interviews because I love meeting the amazing women I get the chance to meet - and love introducing them to you. But they'll be fewer this year as I try to align my podcast with my work, which is coaching women like you to find your CEO voice, build businesses that light you up, and giving you the support you need to be wildly successful!
Today I'm talking about why women should stop striving to be "nice" at work or in business. I think we're all aware of what happens when we're not - words like "bitch, aggressive, standoff-ish, too good for everyone else, too ambitious" get tossed around. But the same doesn't happen to men. They're not expected to be "sugar and spice and everything nice," are they?
But this quest to be nice is damaging us, our ability to stand up for our value, and our ability to show up as our whole selves at work. And I think we have to kick this goal to the curb in favour of a different one. Listen to hear why.
