I don’t know if I’m supposed to tell you this, but I’m going to because that’s how I roll. The doubts I’ve faced, and continue to face, throughout the life of this podcast are overwhelming. My emotional health has been tested as I've taken the vulnerable step of sharing ideas and lessons learned from my years as an executive assistant, trainer, and coach.
It’s nerve-wracking to think about thousands of you listening to me each week. It's painful to read a negative review when I've put literally thousands of hours of my life into this project with the simple goal of helping assistants lead well and resist burnout.
But if I were to refrain from publishing episodes because a few of you don't enjoy the show, or because I'm not as gifted of an interviewer as Oprah Winfrey is, then this podcast would cease to exist. In a similar way, if you wait until you feel like a leader before you begin leading, you’ll never start.
But the fact that so many of you listen to the show every week and let me know the podcast has helped you get the job of your dreams, re-ignite the passion you once had for the assistant role, and more, shows me you’re honored to join me on this vulnerable journey toward embracing our role as leaders.
So thank you for taking a risk by trusting me with your valuable time. May this podcast continue to encourage and challenge us all as we seek to be the confident, game-changing Leader Assistants the world needs.
