Introverts, Promotions & Workplace Politics—How to Win Without Playing the Game17 Mar 202500:39:07

If you’re tired of being overlooked for promotions, frustrated by DEI rollbacks, or stuck in a role that undervalues you, it’s time for a change.

Apply now → https://www.careerbloomcoaching.com/podcasts/career-clarity-unlocked

 

You work hard, but it feels like no one notices. Promotions pass you by. Loud, extroverted coworkers seem to rise faster. And with layoffs and DEI cuts making career growth even harder, it’s easy to feel stuck.

That’s exactly what happened to Lissa Appiah, a career coach who was passed over for an opportunity—despite being the most qualified person for the job. Instead of staying frustrated, she created a strategy, repositioned herself, and landed FIVE promotions in eight years.


In this episode of Career Clarity Unlocked, 5x Certified Career Clarity Coach  Theresa White and Lissa break down how introverts, women, and overlooked professionals can:


✔ Get noticed without self-promotion or faking extroversion

✔ Navigate workplace bias & position themselves for leadership

✔ Stand out in a post-DEI workplace without feeling inauthentic

✔ Turn frustration into action & create real career momentum

If you’ve ever felt undervalued, unseen, or stuck in your career, this episode is for you.


What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

✔ Why introverts get overlooked for promotions—and how to change that 

✔ Why your work isn’t speaking for itself (and what to do instead)

✔ How to position yourself for leadership—even if you’re quiet

✔ The mindset shift that led Lissa to 5 promotions in 8 years

If you’re tired of being stuck and ready to take action, this conversation will help you navigate career changes with confidence.

Build Unshakable Confidence & Overcome Imposter Syndrome01 Feb 202501:04:57

You ever look at those ultra-confident people—the ones who walk into a room like they own it—and think, What do they have that I don’t? Spoiler: Nothing. They’re not special. They didn’t get some magical confidence gene. They just learned how to stop doubting themselves—and you can too.

In this bonus episode of Career Clarity Unlocked (part of the 12 Days of Career Goals series), host Theresa White, Career Clarity Expert & 5x Certified Career Coach, sits down with two powerhouse experts, Sheena Yap Chan and Dr. Jasmine Escalera, to break down how to build unshakable confidence and finally silence imposter syndrome—especially if you’ve ever felt like you don’t belong in the room.

If you’ve been holding back, shrinking yourself, or waiting for permission to take up space—this is your wake-up call. Sheena and Jasmine share their raw experiences navigating male-dominated spaces, overcoming limiting beliefs, and owning their power. You’ll walk away with game-changing strategies to reframe negative self-talk, create your “I’m dope” list, and stop giving power to that voice in your head that says you’re not enough.


Confidence isn’t reserved for “those” people. It’s for YOU. Let’s build it together.

In this episode of Career Clarity Unlocked, career coach Theresa White explores how your early attachment style, secure, anxious, avoidant, or disorganized, shapes how you show up in your career.
