In this episode, I dive into the concept of “borrowing identity” as a powerful strategy for professional growth. I share personal stories about how modeling my mindset and actions after mentors early in my career, like my rockstar boss Marianne, helped me make bold choices that shaped my trajectory. From learning to stand my ground to integrating lessons from inspiring executives, I explore how leveraging examples of what’s possible can be a game-changer, whether you’re just starting out or aiming to inspire the next generation of administrative professionals.

In this episode, you will discover:

• How borrowing elements of a mentor’s identity can shape your self-concept and fast-track your professional growth
• The importance of identifying and connecting with role models in your industry
• Why seasoned professionals should remain mindful of their influence and intentionally uplift those coming up behind them
• Practical steps (whether you’re new or experienced) for leveraging others’ examples to build a mindset for long-term career success

This episode is all about the one habit that transforms your entire experience as an executive assistant. I share insights from a recent panel discussion where my answer to “what’s the one habit no EA should live without?” sparked lively conversation and left a lasting impression.

In this episode, you will discover:

• Why even the most well-meaning executives have no idea what you actually keep off their plate unless you tell them
• Concrete strategies to articulate your value
• How this one habit can radically level up your self-concept, earn you promotions, and increase your influence
