428 | How to show up confident – even when the room feels challenging (feat. Danya Tesarski, Maya Phillips & Liz Everett)

The dream scenario is you walk into that next meeting feeling totally ready. You’re prepped with talking points, you share them seamlessly, and you leave feeling amazing.

But real life is usually much messier than that. You don’t have time to prepare. You’re the least experienced person in the room. The conversation takes a messy turn you weren’t expecting.

These moments can feel like uphill battles. But - what if I told you that these uphill battle moments are the most valuable thing that can happen to you professionally?

When you prove to yourself you can navigate those tough moments and speak with confidence - even though it felt hard - you build a deep sense of confidence that makes you feel unshakable as a leader.

Today’s episode is all about how to do that. Today I’m talking with 3 women who I worked with in The Art of Speaking Up Academy. You’re going to meet Maya, Danya, and Liz

Danya Tesarski is an experienced energy industry leader whose career spans engineering, project development, and asset management.

Maya Phillips is a strategy, growth, and transformation consultant who specializes in technology implementations at hospitals.

Elizabeth (Liz) Everett is a strategic healthcare leader passionate about developing talent, building meaningful partnerships, and creating innovative solutions that advance the future of pharmacy

Each of these women have gone on their own journey of building confidence so they can lead effectively in those challenging moments. You’ll hear the stories of how they grew their confidence, and their advice on how to push past the self-doubt so your voice as a leader.

Let’s dive in.
