Are you leaving money on the table without even realizing it? In this episode of Lead Like a Girl, we dive into the world of salary negotiation and the unique challenges women face in asking for what they’re worth. From real stories to practical strategies, we break down the myths around money conversations and share how confidence, preparation, and research can change the outcome of your career trajectory. This is the conversation every woman needs before her next job offer.
Takeaways

Negotiation often leads to bigger bumps than standard annual raises.
Recruiters ask about expectations to understand how you value yourself.
Confidence and clarity are key to getting the offer you deserve.
