I'm delighted to have Carla Bolton-Marsh join me on the show. Carla is a Global Account Director at Salesforce, but also a Business and Leadership Coach, and she's been busy working with some of our super mums one to one. 

 

We talk about how to overcome your fears because that's one of the things that many of our trainees face when they're thinking about starting out in a new career. It can feel very scary to change direction or even to go for a promotion because quite often you don't know if the grass is greener or not and so in this episode, we're going to be talking about how to overcome those fears, how to think about them logically and how to help move forward so you're no longer stuck in the rut.

 

Here are the highlights from this episode:

 

{2:11} How Carla started as a coach

{7:47} Building confidence after maternity leave

{9:21} Dealing with the fear of not feeling good enough
