What could change in your life if you had the audacity to believe you belong in the room, ask for what you want, and go after the opportunities calling you?
In this episode of The Hats Podcast, Melissa Dumaz and Kerri Harper-Howie put on The Audacity Hat for a candid conversation about what it means to show up unapologetically and believe in yourself enough to make boss moves.
Melissa and Kerri reflect on the moments that taught them to be audacious, from negotiating salaries and pursuing leadership opportunities to navigating relationships and starting over after disappointment. They also explore what can happen when we hold ourselves back: missed opportunities, lost income, diminished confidence, and the possibility of never discovering what we're truly capable of.
But audacity doesn't always come naturally. Melissa and Kerri share how it can be strengthened over time, borrowed from the confidence of people around you, and developed by becoming more comfortable with hearing "no." Because sometimes rejection isn't the end of the road. It may simply be an invitation to find another path forward.
What it really means to live with audacity and why believing you belong can change the opportunities you're willing to pursue.
The hidden cost of playing small, from missed opportunities and income to the impact it can have on your confidence and self-esteem.
How to face rejection without allowing a "no" to determine what you're capable of or where you go next.
Why you don't need another course, coach, or accomplishment before taking action and trusting what you already bring to the table.
How to "borrow" confidence and audacity from other women until you're ready to fully own yours.
