Reclaim Your Voice and Rise: Confidence, Clarity, and Career Growth for Women in Leadership
When you’re doing the work and still getting overlooked, the problem isn’t your performance—it’s your visibility. In this episode, Coach Mo sits down with Rosie Zilinskas, founder of No Woman Left Behind, to explore why high-achieving women stay stuck in corporate roles and how to shift that trajectory. Rosie shares how her Promotion Readiness Roadmap helps women become confident advocates for themselves, land promotions, and thrive in leadership—without burning out. From overlooked to in-demand, this episode is a blueprint for women who are ready to speak up, step in, and level up.
