Whether you’re an aesthetician, educator, lawyer, or entrepreneur, your expertise is needed. But if you and I can’t speak the language of our profession in our new country, we may feel invisible—even after a lifetime of success.
Today you'll hear a perspective on:
- Why mastering the language of your profession is the key to reclaiming your voice and credibility
- How small, everyday language wins lead to long-term confidence and career momentum, and
- How finding a community that sees your brilliance can help you feel like you belong—on your own terms.
Press play to hear truths about the professional language barrier—and how you can rise, word by word, without erasing who you are.
