Who taught you that talking about your wins is bragging?

LinkedIn strategist Portia Obeng has helped thousands of professionals and small business owners stop being the best-kept secret in their industry. She joins Belinda and Shelby for a candid, practical conversation about showing up online before you feel ready, and why playing small doesn't help anyone.

In this episode:
• The first move to make on LinkedIn when you're pivoting industries
• What Portia would do if you only had 30 minutes to fix your profile
• How to speak confidently about your expertise without sounding arrogant
• The profiles that make her hit "connect," and the ones that make her roll her eyes
• Why she's "allergic to quick chats," and what she says to people who ask for one
• Her North Star when the entrepreneurial journey gets hard

As former diplomats, Belinda and Shelby spent decades in a culture where your work was supposed to speak for itself. Portia makes the case that it won't, and that the people who need what you know are waiting to hear it from you.
