Dilemma: I've matured but they treat me the same

This week’s dilemma:

“I’ve matured but they still treat me the same.”

In this minisode, we respond to Lauren. She’s a thoughtful listener who’s grown significantly in her role but keeps getting cast in her company’s origin story version of herself.

She’s no longer the nervous grad she once was. She’s led big projects, found her voice and earned her place. But one senior colleague can’t seem to see past her early years and she’s worried his outdated view is colouring how others perceive her too.

We talk about what it takes to shed an old skin at work, the subtle (and not-so-subtle) ways power shapes perception and how to update your narrative without sounding self-important.

If you’ve ever outgrown a role, a label or a version of yourself that others just won’t let go of, this one’s for you.

Useful resource:

Own Your Brilliance is a self-paced course designed to help you speak up, stand out and self-advocate with confidence. It’s ideal if you’re ready to shift how others see you without second-guessing every word. Explore it here.
