In this episode, we dive into a real and often uncomfortable reality that high-achieving women face in the workplace—jealousy, competition, and sabotage, not from men, but often from other women. I walk through the dynamics of what happens when you shine brightly in your career and how, unfortunately, that can trigger insecurities in others. Amanda shares her own experiences navigating these challenges and why it’s critical to recognize the difference between focusing on your growth versus wasting energy trying to win people over who have already decided not to like you.
We get real about the importance of staying professional, preserving your energy, and protecting your focus. We talk about building strong relationships with women who inspire and uplift you rather than trying to fit into environments where you’re not valued. Amanda also shares a powerful story about bouncing back after major life changes and why continuing to shine your light unapologetically is essential—not just for yourself, but for inspiring others to do the same. If you ever needed a reminder that staying true to who you are will win in the long run, this conversation is it.
We also dig into the deeper mindset work it takes to stay confident when facing jealousy or criticism. We talk about how professionalism, integrity, and surrounding yourself with the right people will carry you further than any shortcut ever could. This is your permission to stop shrinking, stop second-guessing, and keep showing up fully in your life and career. Let's get into it.
