Hi friends. Today’s episode is a little personal - and I hope I’m not alone and this will resonate with many of you.

Let me ask you something:
Do you ever struggle to talk about your accomplishments?
Do you cringe when someone says, “Tell me about what you’ve done”?
Do you default to phrases like “we did this” or “the team made it happen,” even when you led the entire thing?

If you’re nodding right now, you’re not alone. And good, I’m not alone.

In this episode, I’m sharing how 20 years of using “we” language - while noble - actually made it harder for me to own my impact. And more importantly, how I’ve learned to shift that without feeling like I’m bragging.

Let’s dive in.

Kristen Wade helps HR professionals who want to reach the executive level,
to stop putting out fires and become more strategic with their time. For individual support, apply for Kristen's Signature Program here and she'll be in touch to invite you to a free discovery call.
Or if you're ready to ensure your unique values shine, grab a Personal Branding Strategy Session with Kristen here.
