Ep #269: Why 'Middle Management Mentality' Is Keeping You Stuck in Your Career You’re great at your job. You take ownership, hit your goals, and know you’re capable of more. So why does it feel like you’re spinning your wheels in middle management while other people seem to move up faster? Here’s why: The way you think about your role might be keeping you stuck. I call it middle management mentality , and it happens when you unknowingly operate like a middle manager - even when you’re more than ready for a higher-level leadership role. It sounds like: “I’ll just wait for my boss to tell me what to do,” or “If I keep working hard, my results will speak for themselves.” This mindset makes total sense. It’s what got you promoted in the past. But the skills that made you successful in middle management are NOT the same skills that will get you into the executive suite. To get there, you have to start thinking and leading differently now . In this episode of Women Changing Leadership with Stacy Mayer , I’ll show you how middle management mentality is keeping you in career limbo, how to break free from it, and what to do instead so you can step into your next-level leadership role - without waiting for permission.

Stuck in Middle Management Hell? Here’s How to Escape FAST 27:28

Ep #268: Stuck in Middle Management Hell? Here’s How to Escape FAST Let’s be honest: Middle management is kind of the worst, right? You’re constantly caught in the middle - answering to leaders who don’t always value your input while trying to motivate a team that doesn’t always listen. You have some authority but not enough to make real change (the changes you really want to make). You’re expected to own your work but don’t always get recognized for it. And the worst part? It can feel like this is just how things are. But let me tell you something: this does not have to be your reality. Too many brilliant, hardworking women settle for middle management purgatory because they assume the only way out is to switch jobs, get lucky, or put in even more hours. But that’s not the path to true leadership. You actually don’t need to do more work to get yourself promoted to higher levels of leadership - you just need to position yourself differently. In today’s episode, I’m breaking down how to shift from feeling stuck in middle management to becoming a leader who is seen, heard, and valued. I’ll share real stories of women who landed the titles, pay, and recognition they deserved - not by working harder, but by using a simple strategy that made all the difference.

Ep #267: The Biggest Career Risk You’re Taking (Without Even Knowing It!) Are you taking the wrong kind of risk at work - or worse, avoiding risk altogether? Every week of this new year has felt a little overwhelming, exhausting, and - let’s be real - mind-numbing. The world feels unpredictable, layoffs are happening left and right, and the temptation to keep your head down and just survive is strong. But here’s the thing: staying invisible is actually the biggest risk of all. I see it all the time. Women leaders - brilliant, hardworking, and beyond qualified - convincing themselves that now is not the time to speak up, to stand out, or to ask for more. But that mindset? That’s a disempowered observer mindset. And it’s keeping you stuck. On today’s episode of Women Changing Leadership, I’m breaking down exactly how to take more strategic risks in your career - especially in times of chaos and uncertainty. You’ll learn the difference between empowered risks that position you for influence and opportunities, and reckless risks that might actually be holding you back. Plus, I’ll show you the single most important strategy to ensure you’re seen as a leader - without having to fight tooth and nail for recognition.

Ep #266: How to Be Seen and Heard as a Badass Leader with Summa Simmons Corporate badasses, this episode is extra special. Not only am I kicking off Black History Month by celebrating an incredible woman leader, but I also get to shine a spotlight on one of my clients— the phenomenal Summa Simmons. Summa is the Associate Vice President of Treasury at Victoria’s Secret & Co., where she makes sure the company’s financial strategies align with its growth and success. But here’s what I love most about her: She didn’t just climb the corporate ladder—she built her own leadership brand, put herself out there, and created opportunities where there weren’t any before. And now? She’s stepping fully into her voice, owning her impact, and helping other women do the same. On this episode of Women Changing Leadership with Stacy Mayer, Summa is breaking down the three pillars of success that transformed her career, the mindset shifts that helped her go from behind the scenes to thought leader, and why branding yourself as a leader isn’t about demanding more—it’s about showing up like someone people already assume is getting promoted. We also get into what it’s really like to navigate leadership as a Black woman, why documenting your impact is everything, and how to make career moves that actually feel good to you (not just what you think you should do).

Ep #265: The Evolution of a Woman Leader Corporate women leaders, have you ever felt like the only way to get ahead is to play by rules that were never made for you in the first place?

Ep #263: How Setting 'Impossible' Career Goals Leads To Breakthrough Results During my last group coaching call of 2024, one of my corporate badasses shared what may seem like an absolutely impossible goal: Not just landing her dream role in 2025, but getting promoted in that same year, too. And you know what? This fired me up. Because here's the truth about "impossible" goals: They become possible the moment you realize somebody , somewhere has already achieved them. While everyone else is sitting around saying "Oh, that's impossible" or "Maybe someday" or "That's just not how things work here," my corporate badasses are turning their “impossible” goals into " I Am Possible " achievements. On this episode of Women Changing Leadership with Stacy Mayer, I'm sharing super actionable steps for transforming ANY goal that seems out of reach into something achievable. And not only am I going to show you what's possible, I'm going to give strategies and real-life examples on exactly how to make it happen. Whether you're job hunting, feeling stuck, or dreaming of that next big move, the strategies I'm sharing will help you create massive career growth in ways you never thought possible.

Ep #260: The Biggest Client Trends of 2024 That Led to Massive Success What separates corporate women leaders who thrived in 2024 from those who stayed stuck? Let’s face it—2024 kind of sucked. Between layoffs, reorgs, stalled promotions, and bonuses that never materialized, many corporate women leaders felt like their careers were at a standstill. But… many of my clients had massive success in 2024. And not because they were immune from the chaos and BS everyone else was experiencing this year. It was because of what I call "unexpected gifts"—those things that happen in your career that make you feel like you're taking two steps backward in your professional development, but end up helping you unlock a whole new level of leadership. In this episode of Women Changing Leadership with Stacy Mayer, I’ll share what these "gifts" were, how my clients were able to use them to their advantage, and how you can do the same so you always have choices in your career, no matter what 2025 holds.

Ep #259: Are You Saying ‘Yes’ and ‘No’ to the Wrong Opportunities in Your Career? Are you accidentally stalling your career by saying ‘yes’ and ‘no’ to the wrong things? So many of the women I speak with are quick to say ‘yes’ to things that don’t actually move the needle in their careers: Yes to putting out fires, to attending unnecessary meetings, to waiting patiently for that elusive promotion. And on the flip side, those very same women are almost reflexively saying ‘no’ to the very things that could transform their careers. No to exploring a new role because it might not be the “perfect” fit. No to that recruiter’s outreach because the timing doesn’t feel ideal. No to speaking engagements because you’re “not ready.” Here’s the truth: every yes and no you give shapes your career. And sometimes, your default responses might be holding you back. On this episode of Women Changing Leadership with Stacy Mayer, I’ll show you how to flip the script so you can confidently say ‘no’ to the things that don’t truly matter at work—and ‘yes’ to the career opportunities that will move the needle for your growth.

Ep #258: Your Year-End Career Opportunities Hiding in Plain Sight The end of the year is pure chaos—but it’s also bursting with opportunities. If you’re like many corporate badasses I coach, your calendar is jammed with deadlines, performance reviews, and Q4 goals. It’s exhausting, and the idea of focusing on anything beyond just crossing the finish line might feel impossible. But here’s the thing: Amid all that chaos lies incredible career opportunities, just waiting for you to notice them. Opportunities like: Roles other people aren’t applying for, deep conversations with leadership that others aren’t having, and those unexpected, last-minute openings and projects that could catapult you into a new role. That’s why I recorded this episode—to help you lift your head above the noise, shift your focus, and not only get a head start on 2025 but actually have opportunities lined up before the year even ends. My clients are doing this, right now, as you read this. And you can too. On this episode of Women Changing Leadership with Stacy Mayer, I’ll show you what you can stop doing right now to reclaim your time and energy, AND I’ll show you how to shift your mindset and take intentional actions that set you up for the promotion and recognition you want in 2025.

Ep #257: When Work is Good with Moe Carrick Is your organization evolving to meet the needs of today’s leaders? If you’re like many of the women I coach, the answer is a loud and frustrated: No . Not even close. You see it every day—crappy outdated systems, clunky hierarchies, and the same-old same-old way of doing things that just doesn’t work anymore. You want a workplace where you can thrive as a diverse, inclusive, empathetic leader. But the challenge is: How do you actually make that happen? That’s where Moe Carrick comes in. Moe is an internationally respected pioneer in the study and practice of workplace culture, whose award-winning frameworks are used by organizations like Nike and Nintendo.

Ep #256: How to Use Gratitude as a Secret Weapon for Career Growth I’ve always seen myself as a naturally grateful person—glass half full, always looking for the bright side. But over the years, I’ve learned that gratitude can be so much more than just noticing the good things around you—you can turn it into a daily practice that can help you lead with confidence, make clearer decisions, and create real momentum in your career. With Thanksgiving just around the corner, I’m reflecting on how gratitude has unlocked a new level of growth for me as a leader—and how it can do the same for you. In this episode of Women Changing Leadership with Stacy Mayer, I’ll share how focusing on the abundance in your life can help you move past stress and self-doubt and into a mindset of clarity and action. You’ll hear inspiring stories from the women in my Leadership Table mastermind coaching program who are raising their hands for new opportunities, strengthening relationships, and stepping into leadership roles while staying true to themselves.

I get why you’d feel that way. But here’s why it’s a big problem: Many ambitious women leaders get stuck in this career limbo, convinced they need to know without a doubt that the next level up is for them before making a move. And this indecision will not only stall your progress as a leader—it will also hold you back from receiving the influence, recognition and compensation you already deserve. But how do you move forward when you’re not even sure what path you want to take? Here’s the good news: You don’t need to be 100% certain about wanting an executive role before taking your next step. And those steps you take will pay off big time, even if you switch organizations, industries, or start your own business.

Ep #253: The First, the Few, the Only with Deepa Purushothaman In the corporate world, many Women of Color find themselves as “the first, the few, the only” on their teams, in their departments, or even in their entire companies. As a result, they’re often expected to adapt, contort, and conform themselves to fit into a mold that doesn’t reflect who they truly are, just to succeed. But what would it look like to create a corporate world where the talents and achievements of Women of Color are celebrated—not questioned, diminished, or undermined? And where Women of Color aren’t pressured to change who they are to succeed, but are empowered to lead with their unique strengths and on their own terms? This is the world my guest, Deepa Purushothaman, is working to create. As a former senior partner at Deloitte and the author of The First, the Few, the Only: How Women of Color Can Redefine Power in Corporate America, Deepa believes we have the power to reshape corporate culture—if we work together to make it happen. In this episode of Women Changing Leadership, Deepa and I discuss what a redefinition of leadership would look like – one that challenges outdated norms, fosters true inclusivity, and builds strong communities of support. Plus, Deepa shares her insights on how Women of Color can reclaim their power, and how their allies can help them confront systemic hurdles and inspire real change in the workplace.

Maybe you’ve been warned that you’re talking about your professional development too often and that you need to “sit tight” and wait your turn. But as you've heard me say before: A promotion is not a reward for your hard work. And going back to your desk, putting your head down, and working really hard isn’t going to help you get to that next level. So how can you continue to advocate for your promotion without pushing too hard and pissing people off? You’re going to do this: Stop talking about your promotion and start talking about your work . In this episode of Women Changing Leadership with Stacy Mayer, I’ll show you how to shift the conversation from just pushing for a promotion to strategically demonstrating your impact and growth as a leader.

Ep #250: How to Build Allies at Work Without Pissing People Off The #1 best thing you can do for your career? Build allies. Lots of them. Why?

But here’s the catch: “Ally” can feel like a four-letter word in the corporate world, right? If you’ve tried to build allies in the past and people were put off by it, that sucks. But here’s the truth: Building allies is completely normal. Your leadership team probably has them too—they just don’t call them that. So, if you've ever gotten pushback when trying to build allies... or you’ve built allies but don’t know how to leverage them for the promotion you deserve…This episode is for you.

Ep #249: Why The All-Or-Nothing Approach is Costing You Job Opportunities Are you stuck in the "all or nothing" trap with your career? That cycle where you're either scrambling, stressed out, and desperate to land a job after being laid off…or you're happy in a job you enjoy, letting months—or even years—go by without putting any effort into attracting new opportunities and letting your resume, LinkedIn profile, and network become neglected and outdated in the process. This cycle is so harmful because it creates massive amounts of unnecessary stress and anxiety when you do need a job. The good news? That stress is completely avoidable. In this episode of Women Changing Leadership, I’m introducing you to a third way. A process that allows you to attract new opportunities in a relaxed way that yields much better results. And the best part? When you follow this path, you'll show up to interviews with more confidence , curiosity , and boldness , because you'll be fully prepared and positioned for whatever comes your way. It all starts with my ‘ Always Be Interviewing ’ approach. In this episode, I’ll show you how to shift into this ‘Always Be Interviewing’ mindset, stay prepared, and build the professional relationships that will keep opportunities coming your way year-round—without the burnout or desperation.

Ep #248: Thinking at the Speed of Bias with Sara Taylor Have you ever wondered how much of your decision-making as a leader is being driven by forces you’re not even aware of? As a woman leader, you’re all too familiar with bias in the workplace. You’ve encountered it, you’ve worked hard to try to overcome it, and you’ve made conscious choices to intervene and try to create a more equitable workplace for all. But here’s the shocking truth: Despite our best intentions, only about 2% of individuals truly understand bias well enough to create lasting, positive change. As my guest, Sara Taylor, put it during our interview: “If so many of us have that positive intent… why aren’t we making progress?” Sara is the President and Founder of deepSEE Consulting and the author of Thinking At The Speed Of Bias: How To Shift Our Unconscious Filters . And in this episode of Women Changing Leadership with Stacy Mayer, Sara and I dive into the unconscious mind and how it shapes our biases in ways even we—educated, inclusive women leaders—don’t realize.

Here’s the thing: When I guide you to take action in your career, the result you’re aiming for might not be the one I’m targeting. Whether it’s in my book, this podcast, or inside my coaching programs, sometimes the strategies I teach aren’t meant to give you that immediate win. They’re designed to set you up for a much bigger, bolder, badass result that will have a far greater impact on your career and the leader you’re becoming. In this episode of Women Changing Leadership with Stacy Mayer, I’m pulling back the curtain on these hidden agendas and showing you how they help my clients—and you—grow your careers, not just for a single promotion, but for multiple promotions that lead to a lifetime of influence and recognition.

Ep #246: Should You Go For a Higher Title Or "Settle" For a Lateral Move? Are you stuck choosing between going for that shiny new title or “settling” for a lateral move? This is a question I hear from my clients all the time—and for good reason. On one hand, your title matters . And landing the high-level title you deserve matters, too. It’s how you elevate your resume and be recognized for the corporate badass leader you are becoming. But on the other hand, sometimes being too rigid about titles can stifle your career. A lateral move might actually lead to bigger, better opportunities at better-fit organizations where you can actually get promoted faster . So, how do you decide? In this episode of Women Changing Leadership with Stacy Mayer, I’ll help you weigh the pros and cons of both options. We’ll talk through real-life examples, personal stories, and the strategic questions you should ask yourself to make the best decision for your career. And if you’re torn between taking a smaller step up when you're aiming for a skip-level role, or wondering if switching to a different-sized organization is the right move, this episode will help you get clear on those choices, too.

Ep #244: How to Turn Unwanted Labels at Work into Powerful Leadership Assets You’ve been told to avoid labels your whole life, right? Labels put us in boxes, keep us small, and limit our potential. And it doesn’t help that many of them are rooted in nasty ‘isms’—racism, sexism, and more—that work against us when it comes to advancing our careers. But what if the very labels you’ve been given—“too emotional,” “too direct,” “too ambitious”—are actually your secret weapons? And what if that tough feedback from your last performance review wasn’t something to fear, but was actually the key to unlocking your unique strengths as a leader? In this episode of Women Changing Leadership, I’m flipping the script on labels. I’ll show you how to take the labels you’ve been given—even the ones that seem negative—and turn them into your greatest strengths. Plus, we’ll explore how embracing these labels can help you understand your team better, turn “naysayers” into your strongest allies, and tap into everyone’s potential to boost performance across the board.

Ep #242: The One Career-Sabotaging Emotion You Need To Throw In The Trash As the brilliant corporate badass that you are, you’ve probably learned that it’s healthier to make friends with your emotions than to push them down.
