Ep 28 - How to be Less Humble with Stef Sword Williams

If you are more comfortable talking about your team's achievements than your own, then this episode of the Influence & Impact podcast for female leaders is a must listen!

I am joined by Stef Sword-Williams, TEDx speaker and author of F*ck being Humble. Stef is on a mission to change the way the world views self-promotion and encourage people to be unapologetically proud of their achievements.  I wish I had read her book 20 years ago and, in this episode, we talk about the fear of sounding stupid, how to get paid what you are worth and how to network in a digital world.
