Gen X Women, Stop Blending In!
As the forgotten generation, we’ve become extremely comfortable fading into the background, being the background singer, operating as the number two. There are times when quiet confidence is the absolute right play. However, it can’t become the default mechanism if you want to become a professional thought-leader and a game-changer.
In this episode, we’re discussing the importance of stepping forward, out of the shadows and into the spotlight because now is the time to make the impact you’ve always wanted to.
We ❤️ you!
That’s what we’re doing our Modern Gen X Woman’s Season of Giving. We’re giving YOU 30 days of gifts as a way to say thank you for being in our community. But you need to be on the list!
