The Confident Working Woman Podcast
I’m Sharon, HR professional, working mom of two, leadership facilitator, MAP-certified coach, and a woman who built her confidence (and business) in the margins of her day.
I used to be terrified of speaking up at work, sharing my thoughts online, or promoting myself in front of people who might judge me, especially my boss and HR colleagues.
Now, I run leadership workshops, speak to hundreds, post on LinkedIn weekly, and grow my coaching business all while working full-time and raising two kids.
This podcast is for corporate women ready to speak up, be seen, and grow.
Here, we talk about:
- Overcoming the fear of being seen (especially on LinkedIn)
- Building a coaching business on the side of a 9–5
- Sharing your expertise without risking your job
- Finding confidence after years of staying quiet
- Creating consistency without burnout
- Real stories from a real working mom - no perfection, no hustle culture
New episodes drop every week.
