"Who am I to be a thought leader?" It's a question we hear from our highly qualified clients all the time.
If you're struggling with self-doubt and impostor syndrome and it's holding you back from telling your story, you're not alone.
In this tactical "Mighty But Mini" episode, host Gaby Acosta challenges the insecurities that plague many experts, especially those from historically underrepresented groups. She boldly asserts that Black and brown folks, LGBTQ+ individuals, women, and people with disabilities (both visible and invisible) who are doing expert work every day are already qualified to tell their stories. No additional certifications or degrees required.
While the responsibility sits with decision-making leaders to diversify voices in events, media, and publications, trends seem to be moving backwards. If we wait for permission to take the spotlight, we'll be waiting a lifetime.
It's time to take matters into our own hands! 💪
It's 2024—we have countless tools at our fingertips to share our wisdom in our own spaces and on our own platforms.
Discover why your unique perspective isn't just valuable, but necessary in today's world. Learn how to redefine thought leadership and uncover the one factor that outweighs any credential. Through her own journey, Gaby shows you how to silence your inner critic and amplify your voice. It's time to step into the spotlight and lead the way.

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage
Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
