We are constantly told to be humble, to downplay their skills, and to avoid the word "expert", but that stops today. In this episode of Disrupt. Dominate. Delegate., we’re tackling the fear of calling ourselves experts and why it’s time to own what we’re good at.
I share my personal experience with being told never to call myself an expert and how that message kept me playing small for way too long. We’ll unpack why so many women hesitate to step into their power, why expertise isn’t about knowing everything, and how to start showing up with confidence.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
🔥 Why we hesitate to call themselves experts
🔥 How fear of expectation and failure holds us back
🔥 What it really means to be an expert (hint: it’s not perfection)
🔥 How to stop apologizing for what you don’t know and own what you do
🔥 Actionable steps to start stepping into your expertise today
Notable Quotes:
💡 “Who am I to teach this? Flip that. Who the hell are you NOT to?”
💡 “Expertise isn’t about knowing everything. It’s about having knowledge that someone else needs.”
💡 “People aren’t waiting for you to fail. They’re waiting for you to HELP.”
💡 “Experts don’t wait for permission. They take their seat at the damn table.”
Take Action:
Drop ‘I’m not an expert’ from your vocabulary. Stop using it as an apology and own what you know.
Start documenting your wins. Keep a record of the impact you’re making so you never forget how far you’ve come.
Teach something today. Even if it feels basic, share a tip, insight, or lesson... because someone out there needs it.
