In this episode, Andryanna sits down with author Lisa Bragg to discuss bragging, what it really means and why we should all (especially women) be doing it. A former TV reporter and anchor Lisa is a now a speaker, advisor, professional mentor, and author of the book on how to talk about success.
Andryanna and Lisa discuss:
- An encounter Lisa had with a now very famous pop star, which sparked her to make a shift in her career and professional purpose.
- The world's most extensive research study on bragging that Lisa conducted for her book on purposeful self-promotion.
- Why we shy away from speaking up about ourselves in a positive way.
- The choice we all have to stand by and continue being hidden or to show up and act and how we go from "hidden to daylight".
- The pitfall of modesty, how it differs from humility and what we can do to stop deflecting and dismissing our accomplishments and praise from others.
- How we can both receive and give compliments as a first step by using the concept of 'flip it to test it'.
- How sharing is truly a way to serve others, help more people and allow others to be seen and heard.
