2. How to Stop Negative Self-Talk Before It Sabotages Your Career with Julie Roth
When I first met Julie Roth, she was standing at a career crossroads. She had the experience, the network, and the drive but the loudest thing in the room was her own inner critic telling her she wasn’t ready. Together, through coaching, we worked through how to recognize those voices, shift from fear into possibility, and start building a freelance career rooted in confidence.
In this episode, Julie and I open up about the messy but powerful work of leading yourself through doubt, overwhelm, and transition. If you’ve ever wondered how to quiet your inner saboteur and step into a bigger version of your career, this conversation is for you.
☕ In this episode, we discuss:
How leaders can manage negative self-talk in high-pressure moments
Tools for resetting focus when overwhelm hits, including Julie’s Tornado method
Why saying yes with gratitude feels different than saying yes with fear
The trade-offs between agency life and freelancing, and what leaders can learn from both
How preparation and accountability create trust, confidence, and long-term growth
