Rate ShowHell Yes to this Podcast!!
One random day, I was sitting in my car getting ready for the commute and I needed something interesting to listen to. I took the chance and started listening to the Art of Speaking Up. I’m so freaking happy that I did! Jessica does an amazing job discussing some things I’ve encountered in the workplace that no one talks about. I really wish more people would.
One of my favorite episodes was been “Landing the Dream Job Without the Right Experience”. It was so helpful to hear from someone who has experienced what I am going through. I know that I am not alone and but it can be very lonely at times and hearing *literally* helps me believe in myself more! I know many more people need this. A special thank you to Jessica Guzik for creating this podcast. Keep bringing to light these issues and please continue to build out the community in ways that are interactive!

Amazing podcast for professional women of all ages!
This is an amazingly valuable and important podcast for professional women. Although it seems to be targeted at younger women, my 4 girlfriends and I (all late 30s to early 40s) often discuss this podcast because its topics are so relevant to us. After listening to each episode, I feel empowered to overcome my own challenges and also eager to empower other women who I know struggle with similar issues. Thank you for producing such meaningful and impactful content. Please know that your listeners are more diverse (especially in age; we’re not all in our early to mid 20s) than you may think! We truly value you.

Inspirational; I wish all of my friends would check this out
I am loving this podcast - it is crazily relevant to situations I am dealing with now and in the past.
The trailer is also a great way to get pumped up for the day!

Like listening to a friend
Jess addresses tough topics but leaves me feeling inspired. I love how open she is with her struggles because so many women are going through the same thing. Brava! 👏👏👏

Perfect balance of practical and motivational
My boss gave me a toy microphone one year, half joking and half encouraging me to use my voice at work. I didn’t have the confidence or the knowhow to take action so I tucked the mic in my desk drawer and continued to stay relatively quiet. The Art of Speaking Up has helped me realize a few things: feeling this way is normal and taking action can be scary, but everyone is more than capable of creating positive change. Every episode is jam packed with realistic steps you can take that SAME DAY to get more vocal, more confident and more comfortable with doing both. I spend every commute to the office with Jess and her guests (all incredibly inspiring women) learning how to be a better contributor at work, a better communicator and an all-around better human being. I can’t recommend this podcast enough.

Jess is fantastic!
Jessica goes beyond theory and gives practical support for women working to find their voice in the workplace. She knows what it’s really like because she lives it. So glad I found her podcast.

I can relate
This show addresses real issues that women (and everyone else) has that can be barriers to advancing. Love how women share their personal experiences and are honest, and then provide solutions.

Finally!
It’s so good to finally hear a solid articulation not just of these issues, but of my feelings about them!! And it’s actually really useful in my day-to-day at the office. Constructive, positive, and challenging. All things you want in a podcast like this.

Thoughtful and Meaningful conversations
I love this podcast. It explores with candor the many challenges of building a career in a mostly male dominated world, and what it’s like to navigate the inner critic, as well as the expectations and assumptions associated with being female. Jessica is a great host, who sets a course for the conversation but let’s it flow naturally. A continuously great listen.

A platform for women to feel supported
The Art of Speaking Up is a beautifully curated podcast providing practical advice and support for women. Jessica navigates through the very topics that are plaguing many of us in the corporate world with her guests, allowing us fo find solutions and comfort in other women’s experiences. I highly recommend this podcast for any women (or man) who wants fo better understand themselves and human connection in the workplace.

Much needed
Love the idea of this podcast - much needed for young women and not-so-young women (and probably everyone else too). Particularly enjoyed the episode with Brenda Baird. Keep at it, Jess!

LOVE Everything About This Podcast
Speaking Up always has some of the best guests imaginable, with episodes that truly are for the working woman, each one being less than an hour long. They are rarely self-indulgent, and even when they are, they remain educational. I just listened to the episode regarding handling uncomfortable work moments with co-workers and management and had various Aha! Moments that I’ve never had before. The episode with Kaitlin Maud got me hooked. Jessica has incredible warmth around her, making everyone feel safe and also seen. Her guests similarly share a grounded, relatable aspect to them. So many have been underestimated and have come to rise out of the ashes; so apropos.
I love this woman and this pod. I finish every episode empowered. Check it!

Amazing podcast for young professionals!
I listen to this podcast every morning during my commute to work and not only does it set me an amazing mood for the rest of the day because of the positive and inspiring conversations I’m listening to, but the podcast also makes me more aware for the rest of the day. Jessica and her guests give extremely easy to implement and tactical pieces of advice I can try out during my meetings and presentations throughout the day. They also offer super relatable points of view on how to think about the challenges we face at work. My favorite so far is the chat with Olivia Mitchell and how to change our reaction to being nervous before a big presentation. These discussions about our mindset are so quickly applicable and really help put some of these inspiring pieces of advice into action. I enjoy this podcast so so much - I’ve listened to so many out there covering this issue and this is by far MY FAVORITE.

Level up by speaking up
Jessica is creating a safe space for women to be heard, to tell our stories, and to level up together. There are so many “how to” guides on adapting to a white-male dominated workspace. This podcast is a great start to thinking about how can we change the landscape by unlocking what women already have in an authentic way.

Looking forward to learning to speak up!
This podcast is an honest take on something many women struggle with. I particularly like that the approach is about recognizing our strengths and channeling them- as Jessica says, “as women we already have enough messages about what we need to fix”!!

Necessary in these times
This podcast isn't just great, it'sa necessary listen for both men and women. Listening to Jessica's personal experiences as well as those of her guests, this podcast illuminates an all too often overlooked part of modern society: what it's like to be a professional woman in the workplace. It's important in these times to not only discuss issues like #MeToo and #TimesUp but to also have an open and honest dialogue about the casual everyday sexism and misogyny that can plague a workplace and what can be done about it. Jessica is a fantastic host, as you'll hear she's able to seamlessly weave in deeply personal anectdotes with humor, reflection, while also getting her guests to open up about their experiences and their advice on how to navigate the modern working world.
As I said before, this podcast is necessary, now more than ever
