Quotes:
“The resume is very KPI (key performance indicator) and result-driven: we’re going to make sure that we highlight the impact that you’ve had on the business and the bottom line. I view the LinkedIn as two-fold: number one, it’s a story.” — @SarahDJohnston [0:05:23]
“When someone opens your LinkedIn profile to view you and read about you, they only see the first three lines. I want to do everything I can to make that reader click ‘See More’.” — @SarahDJohnston [0:06:03]
“Don’t lie on your resume, but also view the resume as a marketing document. You don’t have to put everything out there, but you have to make sure it’s honest.” — @SarahDJohnston [0:20:34]
“I make my money off of writing resumes, but I will say that a resume alone will not get you a job.” — @SarahDJohnston [0:27:56]
“What ChatGPT can’t do is unearth your value proposition, and that’s what a great resume writer does.” — @SarahDJohnston [0:31:24]
“The one takeaway that I would give to listeners today is to not skip the self-reflection phase of the job search.” — @SarahDJohnston [0:41:20]

If you could never work in your chosen career again, would you be relieved, or would you be disappointed? Dr. Tessa West is a Professor of Psychology at New York University, a leading expert on the science of social relationships, and a researcher focusing on how to improve communication between employees, bosses, and hiring professionals. She regularly contributes to the The Wall Street Journal among other noted publications. She is the author of two books, Jerks at Work which she talked about on her first visit to Finding Brave , and most recently, Job Therapy: Finding Work That Works for You which focuses on finding out and understanding the psychological source of your unhappiness at work and then taking a series of carefully orchestrated steps to find a career with long-term staying power.
During this rich conversation, Tessa shares key insights from Job Therapy. To kick off our discussion, we explore what it might look like to reframe your career by thinking of it as you would a romantic relationship or partnership. She shares how feeling that she was being a jerk to her coworkers sparked the concept of her first book before unpacking the five forms of job dissatisfaction and their true roots. We discuss the importance of understanding that we only see the surface of the lives of others (and make many erroneous judgments about what other people have that we don’t) and why identifying your own core transferrable skills is a superpower. In closing, she shares a powerful tip on truly getting to know yourself in meaningful and productive ways.Tessa’s grounded perspective in research paired with acute self-awareness makes for deeply insightful listening and learning.
Key Highlights From This Episode:
Reframing your career as a relationship to understand the complexity and journey of it. [05:34] How being a jerk to her coworkers sparked the concept for her book, Jerks at Work. [11:01] Three of the five most common forms of dissatisfaction and their source. [13:54] How a theory behind a happy marriage mirrors what it might look like to have a good career. [24:27] The importance of realizing that we are not aware of the day-to-day of other people’s lives. [27:40] Why a Crisis of Identity is the most common category that people fall into. [29:41] Identifying the core skills that can be transferred from one career to another. [33:30] What is really necessary to know yourself: try to be a scientific observer of your own experiences.

Do you ever get the sinking feeling that, no matter how hard you work or what you do, it’s never enough? Our culture is stuck in an old paradigm that views success as a destination rather than a journey, attainable by only the lucky few at the top. But what if there was another way?
For insight into her “new paradigm of success,” we are joined by Brooke Taylor, a Transformational Career Coach for women, former Marketing Lead at Google, and global expert in a phenomenon she has coined the Success Wound, which is the pain high-achievers experience when they mistake their success for self-worth.
In this episode, Brooke breaks down some of the most common misconceptions that high-achievers have about success and shares her game-changing methodology to create a powerfully aligned life on your own terms and transform your relationship with success forever.
Tuning in, you’ll learn about the five types of unfulfilled achievers, how your Success Wound might be driving your “success ideal,” and actionable steps you can take to begin to heal. If you’re ready to build a dream career (and an even better life), this episode is for you!
Key Points From This Episode:
Defining the Success Wound and how it manifests differently in men and women. [04:57] What your success ideal might look like when it’s driven by your Success Wound. [11:16] Common misconceptions about success and the five "unfulfilled achiever” archetypes. [14:16] How to identify whether you’re operating from your wounding or your wholeness. [18:40] The sometimes unseen impact of paradoxical expectations of success for women. [23:25] Inherently patriarchal capitalistic cultural notions that inform our success ideals.

One in five people is estimated to be neurodivergent, yet efforts to achieve large-scale neuroinclusion in the workplace have largely failed due to superficial “check-the-box” strategies. Cognitive scientist, author, board director, business leader, and neurodivergent employer Dr. Maureen Dunne knows from lived experience and extensive research that we can harness the power of neurodiverse talent to help organizations build thriving cultures. Her national bestselling book, The Neurodiversity Edge, introduces a transformative framework for addressing “the most important human resources opportunity of the 21st century.” As you’ll discover in today’s episode, creating a neuroinclusive workplace isn't just the right thing to do; it can also be a massive competitive advantage.
Join us as Maureen highlights common misunderstandings about neuroinclusion and explains why we need to break free from society’s neurotypical script to embrace the strengths of brains that work differently. She also reveals how organizations can take a values-driven approach to build a culture of sustained authentic inclusion and leverage the enormous untapped talent pool defined by cognitive differences.
For actionable strategies that can transform your organization's approach to inclusion and unlock the potential of neurodiverse talent, tune in today!
Key Highlights From This Episode:
An important definition of neurodiversity as a strengths-based framework. [05:25] Ways the average workplace excludes neurodivergent talent (and why it’s a pitfall). [06:42] Why “sustained authentic inclusion” is key for building a thriving workplace culture. [11:46] How Maureen’s own neurodivergent experiences inspired her to advocate for others. [14:40] Insight into the apparent rise of neurodivergent diagnoses in our society today. [21:20] What organizations need to do to correct biases against neurodivergent employees. [23:49] Updating the interview process to accommodate excellent neurodivergent candidates. [29:27] How openly neurodivergent leaders promote neurodiversity-friendly cultures. [33:59] Accessible tips for shattering stereotypes and creating more inclusive communities. [36:37]For More Information:

As the co-CEO of Transcend, a nationally recognized innovation organization, and today’s guest, Jeff Wetzler has leveraged his expertise in learning and human potential to develop a game-changing approach to smarter decisions, more creative solutions, and deeper relationships by asking different kinds of questions that unlock possibility and connection.

Thank you for listening to our Finding Brave show, ranked in the Top 100 Apple Podcasts in Careers!
Please note: This is a special rerun of Episode 130.
“You are not your past. You are all of it, your past, present, and future. So do the work to release the shame, the humiliation, and the negative judgments you have about yourself. Release yourself.” – Kathy Caprino
Over the past several years on Finding Brave, I’ve offered some key information about what I’ve observed are the 7 most damaging power and confidence gaps along with key chapters from my latest book, The Most Powerful You: 7 Bravery-Boosting Paths to Career Bliss. Some time back, I offered a series of 7 podcasts dedicated to these gaps that negatively impact 98% of professional women today, and 90% of men, preventing them from reaching their highest potential, and their happiest, most rewarding success and fulfillment.
In this 7th installment of that series, I share the power gap that may be closest to my own heart and soul. I’m talking about how we unwittingly allow past trauma, pain and challenges that we’ve experienced to continue to shape and define us. And this unwanted pain and shame often brings to our lives unwanted experiences.
I have lived this in such a deep way (and continue to work on it - as you’ll hear in my upcoming interview, Episode #286 with Finnian Kelly - who helped me right on the show uncover a very painful trauma memory from when I was a teen, and connect that to some mindset (and behavioral) challenges I still have around money, work and safety.
I never fully recognized this Power Gap (of how our past continues to shape and define us unless we gain fuller awareness of the trauma and pain events/experiences and work committedly to overcome and release them) until I became a therapist and started doing the work on myself and with others to help us heal.
Unfortunately, life can hurt us badly sometimes and leave deep scars, and no one is immune. Every single one of us has experienced some form of pain, suffering, sadness, isolation, rejection, and trauma in our lifetimes. Many have experienced and witnessed things that alter how they see the world and operate within it. Sometimes, pain and hardship make us close down and stop trusting others.
Other times, it makes us turn our pain into rage and violence against the world. Yet some people, while crushed by their pain for a time, are able to find a way to become more of who they really are at their core – more loving, compassionate, hopeful, helpful, generous, insightful, brave, committed, and resilient and joy-filled — through all of it. And some are fortunate to know exactly how to turn their emotional challenges into new ways to be of service in the world so they can uplift others while expanding themselves.
I sincerely hope that my “The Most Powerful You” series (for content on the other 6 gaps, check out Episodes #124 through #129) is enlightening, and in conjunction with my book and video training program, can help you uncover any power and confidence gaps that may be holding you back at this very moment.
As always, thank you for listening and I would be so happy to hear your feedback on not just this episode, but the entire series and The Most Powerful You book.
Remember that tremendous success, joy, and reward aren’t just reserved for a handful of people, but everyone, including you. You are worthy of an amazing life and career, and it’s waiting for you.

QUOTES:“The very first thing I want you to understand is that you’re not silly, you’re not foolish and you’re not weak to be feeling what you feel. It’s often trauma.” [6:05]
“How you integrate what happens to you in your own identity is going to shape not just your personal life and relationships, but your professional life and your career success.” [6:59]
“There are traumatic events that happen in our life, absolutely, but once they happen there are steps you can take to grab back control of your life.” [12:20]
“It’s one thing to have insight, but it’s not enough. Insight doesn’t change your life. Brave action does.” [18:06]
“The problem with these “dirty little secrets” is that if you do not address them with your eyes wide open, they grow bigger and more destructive. They send you underground and they eat at you.” [24:54]
“Often the Universe is doing you a favor by kicking you out of a horrible job and a toxic ecosystem.” [30:20]

Join us for an instrumental and hopeful conversation filled with valuable insights to help you heal and grow, in your life, career and relationships.

Today, we’re delighted to welcome back return guest, Austin Belcak, who joined us way back on episode five to talk about how to land a dream job at the salary you deserve, as well on episode 89 where he shared his insights on building an exceptional resume that gets real results. Through his personal experiences, Austin has developed a uniquely effective job search system that helped him go from being a new grad with a biology degree (and a job in healthcare) to landing interviews at multiple tech companies, including Microsoft, where he ended up working for over five years and was promoted multiple times.
Austin is the founder of Cultivated Culture, where he helps people secure jobs they’re passionate about, without relying on the need for traditional experience or online applications. The platform is a hugely valuable resource for job seekers and offers multiple free tools, including a resume builder and analyzer. He also hosts The Dream Job System Podcast where he shares bite-sized, highly actionable career advice. Additionally, Austin’s work has been featured in multiple publications including, Forbes, Business Insider, and Fast Co. Through his work he has helped thousands of job seekers earn roles at top companies like Google, Apple, and Amazon, without ever needing to apply online.
In today’s conversation with Austin, we delve into the subject of networking, why he’s found it to be infinitely more effective than traditional job-searching methods, and how he developed a jobs system that could help others just like him. We unpack why traditional approaches proved particularly ineffective for him, why he needed advice from people with first-hand experience, and how he went about reaching out to those individuals who could give him the insights he needed to succeed. Our conversation also examines some of the most common misconceptions when it comes to networking and what can be done to address them.
Austin’s parting message emphasizes the importance of investing in yourself and actively creating things that other people will find interesting, before breaking down exactly how this will help your networking journey in the long run. His story serves as a powerful reminder that following your intuition and finding a braver path, will often be far more effective than sticking to more traditional routes. Join us today to hear all of Austin’s eye-opening insights as we discuss the nuances of networking and finding the job you truly want!

As many of us are seeing and experiencing firsthand, we’re living in a time of divisive politics and widespread conflict. While these conditions present difficult challenges, it’s also an opportunity for growth if we can find the courage and strength to engage in a new way. This is the belief of today’s inspiring guest, William Ury, who has dedicated his life to transforming conflicts from destructive impulses into opportunities for collaboration and growth.
William is a renowned negotiator, anthropologist, and bestselling author whose insights and expertise have reshaped the way we approach conflict resolution. Among other top books he’s written, he is the co-author of Getting to Yes, the world’s all-time bestselling book on negotiation with more than 15 million copies sold. William has served as a negotiator in many of the most challenging disputes of our time, having consulted for the White House, the State Department, and the Pentagon, as well as dozens of Fortune 500 companies. He is also the co-founder of Harvard’s distinguished Program on Negotiation, and has served as a negotiation adviser and mediator in conflicts ranging from Kentucky wildcat coal mine strikes to family feuds, from US partisan battles to wars in the Middle East, Colombia, Korea, and Ukraine.His highly-anticipated new book, Possible: How We Survive (and Thrive) in an Age of Conflict, draws on decades of experience to shed light on some of the toughest conflicts of our time and how we can find a way forward.
Today’s conversation takes us on a fascinating journey, from William’s first interest in negotiation and conflict resolution as a young child, to the central lessons he lays out in his books, to some of his most intense negotiating experiences with key figures, like Venezuelan president Hugo Chavez. We learn about his Pathways to Possible method and how to transform seemingly impossible situations into creative and productive conversations before exploring the concept of self-mastery and engaging the third side in any conflict, and more.
Join us as we explore William’s journey and his invaluable insights on navigating both personal and geopolitical conflicts with courage, self-mastery and compassion. Tune in to see conflict in a new light, tap into your innate potential, and approach animosity with curiosity.

Fatimah Gilliam is an author, lawyer, sought-after speaker, consultant, and founder of The Azara Group, a consulting firm that provides diversity and inclusion, leadership development, negotiation, and strategy consulting services to Fortune 500 corporations, senior executives leading billion-dollar businesses, and industry thought leaders.
Her groundbreaking book, Race Rules: What Your Black Friend Won't Tell You, is a practical manual of the unwritten rules that can help readers navigate today’s racially polarized world. In short, it’s a ‘how-to’ manual for white people to be less racially offensive; enabling them to develop stronger and more respectful cross-racial friendships and professional relationships with people of color.
Today, Fatimah joins us as “white America’s Black friend” to tell us what others won’t say to our faces nor share about perspectives of color on white behaviors, choices, and interactions. She shares deep, transformative insights from her book, which seeks to open the door to perspectives of color so white people can learn, make better choices, take different actions, and evolve with a diversifying society in the 21st century.
This conversation is an excellent source of well-informed and hard-hitting advice for those looking to move beyond performative allyship and live their non-racist values, rather than just talk about them. As we discuss, this is ideal for anyone who wants to bring the unconscious forward to consciousness, so they can take new actions every day that will directly and powerfully address and combat racism both in our own lives and behaviors, and in the world we live in. Tune in to learn more!
Key Highlights From This Episode:
• What inspired Fatimah to write this book and what her intentions are for it. [04:31]
• Ways that being a light-skinned Black woman has impacted her view of racism. [07:57]
• Defining racism and why Fatimah chooses to focus on impact rather than intent. [09:53]
• The ‘how-to’ guide she offers and how Race Rules differs from other books on racism. [13:37]
• How racism is distinct from prejudice with the key ingredient being power. [18:42]
• Fatimah's “Top 5” of 31 race rules and insight into her three-step Bedrock Race Rule. [20:15]
• Othering, marginalization, and how to ensure the language you use isn’t offensive and harmful. [28:00]
• Rules for discussing race for white people who see themselves as anti-racist allies. [33:59]
• Understanding the relationship between defensiveness and exceptionalism. [41:14]
• A favorite passage of Fatimah’s from Race Rules, where to get the book, parting advice, and more. [46:08]

Quotes:
“Part of what I’m trying to [change] is the impact of people’s choices and behaviors and not the intent of their choices and behaviors. I want people to make better choices that positively impact communities and people of color.” — @fatimahgilliam [0:10:18]
“This is not about good and evil. It is about whether or not the impact of your choices harms people of color individually and collectively.” — @fatimahgilliam [0:11:05]
“With Race Rules, I’m trying to give people access to information so that they can live their values and not just talk about their values.” — @fatimahgilliam [0:18:10]
“What happens a lot of times when we’re talking about race is we move to all the other ‘isms’ and don’t focus on what is the hardest thing for American society to focus on: – having a conversation, evaluation, and analysis of race in peoples’ [personal and professional] lives.” — @fatimahgilliam [0:39:44]
“[All whites in America], even the person who is the most woke, liberal, and progressive, all of them are engaging in decisions in small [and] big ways that – have a harmful, racialized, negative impact on people of color.” — @fatimahgilliam [0:43:22]
“People can change collectively and individually. It has to start somewhere and I see Race Rules as my patriotic contribution to American society so that we can evolve.” — @fatimahgilliam [0:51:25]
