  • Episode 100 - You're a better leader than you think you are
    2025/12/17
    You're a better leader than you think you are.
    At the end of every day, you notice what went wrong. The conversation that didn't land. The decision you're still second-guessing. The person on your team you're not sure how to reach. What you don't notice is everything that's working. The fact that your team is functioning. That work is getting done. That you're the one making that happen.
    This episode of Career Espresso is about seeing something you might be missing. How much you've already grown, and how much better you're doing than you think.
    What you'll discover
    -Why women leaders underestimate themselves constantly and why it's structural, not a confidence flaw you need to fix-The signs you're doing better than you think, even when no one's telling you-What good leadership actually looks like versus the polished ideal in your head-How to recognise your own growth when you're too close to see it clearly


    Perfect for women leaders who care about getting it right but struggle to see how far they've come.

  • Episode 99 - I can't stop doing everything myself
    2025/12/10
    I can't stop doing everything myself
    You're reviewing something your team has done and it's good. But you find yourself tweaking it anyway. Adjusting the wording, reorganising a section, adding something they didn't think of. Or someone asks you a question and instead of pointing them toward figuring it out, you just answer it. Because it's quicker. Because it's easier than watching them work through it.
    This episode of Career Espresso is about how to actually let go when letting go feels uncomfortable. Not the theory of delegation. The real work of stepping back when every instinct tells you to stay involved.
    What you'll discover
    -What genuinely changes when you get this right (not just time back, but the mental load that's exhausting you)-Why letting go is so hard for women leaders specifically and why it's not just that you haven't found the right system yet-How to hand things over properly so they actually stay handed over instead of boomeranging back to you-What "good enough" actually means when you're used to controlling the output-Why waiting until delegation feels comfortable means you'll be waiting forever
    Perfect for leaders who know they need to stop doing everything but aren't sure how to actually let go without things falling apart.

  • Episode 98 - How to find your people as a leader
    2025/12/03
    How to find your people as a leader


    You're in a leadership role and something's shifted. The people you used to talk things through with? That's complicated now. Your team can't be your sounding board because you're their boss. Your own boss has their own agenda. And the networking advice you see everywhere feels exhausting when what you actually need is someone you can be real with.


    This episode of Career Espresso is about finding people who actually get what you're dealing with. Not networking contacts or professional visibility. Actual people who understand leadership from the inside.


    What you'll discover


    * Why isolation isn't just uncomfortable - it makes you make worse decisions and lose perspective on how you're doing

    * The three criteria that define your actual people (not just professional contacts)

    * Where to look for peer relationships that work, including the people you're probably overlooking

    * How to start these connections without it feeling awkward

    * What keeps leadership relationships alive when you're overwhelmed


    Perfect for women leaders who need people they can be honest with, not just a professional network.
