83: The Simple Way to Respond with Confidence at Work

Listen on

Episode notes

I grew up watching Connie Chung on TV. 

And then I got to see her live and hear about her new memoir, “Connie.”

And it was a big reminder of the importance of confidence, and being able to advocate for yourself with confidence at work.

I used to struggle with speaking up for myself at work, and for most of my life, saw myself as the “quiet” one.

But there are some simple things I did to step into my confident, authentic voice as an Asian-American woman, and I go over them in this episode! 

The TOP Learnings in this episode: 

  • Unlearning the “quiet Asian” stereotype (5:58)
  • Unorthodox ways to build confidence in a male-dominated industry (8:44)
  • Maintaining your power in conversations (10:40)
  • The art of pausing to be heard (16:04)
