26: Becoming a Boss in Midlife: Tools, Actions & Mantras

Show Notes

Join me, Dr. Sarah Milken, in an open and honest conversation about Becoming a Boss in Midlife: Tools, Actions & Mantras. My guest, Heather Monahan, shares her story from two decades as a high-ranking executive in corporate America, losing it all and building a personal brand and platform to help people step out of their comfort zones and create the confidence they want in life and business. As I call it in this podcast, this is part of Heather’s “midlife remix”.

Heather Monahan is a best-selling author of Confidence Creator with another book out in November, keynote speaker, TEDx speaker, and faculty at Harvard teaching professional sales & sales leadership. She gives us the tools we need to build confidence and use it in our personal & professional lives.

We dig deep into the details of Heather’s journey in her midlife remix. She shares how to take messy action steps every day to build your confidence, reframing fear as a green light, getting rid of your villains, and how to build your confidence muscle.

Some highlights: 

  • Growing up in poverty / started working at 10

  • Getting fired and turning it into an opportunity

  • Created her own personal brand

  • Launching her second successful career / two books

  • Messy action steps, better than none

  • Confidence is a muscle to build

  • Finding the green light to go faster
