1. Think about where you can improve.

2. Expand your network.

3. Create an action plan.

When I first arrived in New York City, determined to become an on-air news anchor, I overdressed every day. I would show up to my job as a camera-woman in a blazer and dress pants, as if I was already a reporter ready to step in front of the camera.

Eventually, I got my dream job, and if you start using the tips from this podcast you may eventually get yours too!

Here are the highlights from this episode:

Did you know that June is Effective Communication

Did you know that June is Effective Communication Month? Today's #saythisnotthat topic is about how to be an effective communicator.
Don't say this: I don't have to give context, people will know what I mean.
Say this: If I want to ensure my topic is understood, giving context is crucial to good communication.
Don't say this: Everyone understands my industry acronyms.
Say this: I won't assume that everyone knows every industry acronym.
Don't say this: I know I have a difficult conversation today, I'm just going to wing it.

There’s no such thing as perfect. In this week

There’s no such thing as perfect.
In this week’s podcast I talk about how striving for perfection sets you up for failure. Failure is in your own mind because the outside world will likely never know you weren’t perfect. I talk about how perfectionism leads to procrastination and how nobody is perfect.
I’d love to know if you push forward even if you think something isn’t “perfect”?

#ThisNotThat Getting out of vour comfort zone ca

#ThisNotThat
Getting out of vour comfort zone can get you out of a rut. Why not just try something new and see if that pushes you forward.
Don't say this: You can't teach an old dog new tricks.
Say this: There is no reason I can't learn something new.
Don't say this: What if I try it and don't like it?
Say this: If I try it and don't like it I don't have to stick with it BUT at least I stepped out of my comfort zone.
Don't say this: I'm afraid to try something new.
Say this: I've had a lot of "firsts."
Some worked, some didn't but I gave it a shot.
When is the last time you tried something new?
