Why Smart Women Miss Opportunities
2025-12-16
Sometimes we know exactly what we want, but we don’t raise our hand.
We hesitate. We wait. And the opportunity passes us by.
In this episode, I’m talking about what holds us back from stepping up, why hesitation costs more than we think, and how to catch ourselves in the moments we stay small.
Smart women miss out. Not because they’re unqualified. Because they don’t prepare for the moment when opportunity quietly appears. Let’s change that. You’ll walk away knowing what to look for, what to say, and how to advocate for yourself before you're “ready.”
