I can already tell you— this a Lunch Break episode I will be recommending for-ev-er. I don’t know a single career-minded friend who doesn’t have a complicated relationship with external validation. The gold stars, the praise, the admiration for doing an impressive job— it’s addicting. And it stems from a disconnection from your own self-worth.
In this episode, Executive Leadership coach Bahija Humphrey helps you step into your potential and lead with confidence, exploring:
PLUS: Bahija’s own “reckoning” story as an Afghan woman raised in the West, and how she connected with her purpose after feeling disallusoned from gold-star chasing her way to the top.
If you're a first-gen kid, an oldest sibling, a former gold-star child, or a “promising young woman,” this episode is a must-listen. Join us as we explore the path to healing your soul, embracing your uniqueness, and building the unshakable confidence to pursue your dreams on your terms.
