Stop Giving Women Toxic Advice with Dr. Sarah Glova 35:46

۴ روز پیش35:46

35:46

Are you constantly feeling overwhelmed by the endless "shoulds" and unsolicited advice coming your way? This week on Amplify, Jess sits down with her good friend, Dr. Sarah Glova, a keynote speaker, writer, researcher, and unapologetic truth-teller. Her viral talk, "Stop Giving Women Advice," is backed by science, and when Jess saw the title, she knew she had to have her on the show. Sarah thoroughly examines why unsolicited advice isn't just annoying – it can actually reinforce power imbalances, stifle confidence, and make women feel like they’re always playing catch-up. She reveals how her personal experience as a new wife, new mom, and new business owner led her to research the power dynamics of advice-giving. You'll hear about the fascinating studies showing who gives and receives advice, and how the act of giving advice can fuel a sense of power in the giver, often at the expense of the receiver. We also explore: The "vitamin metaphor" for advice: good in moderation, toxic in excess. Why "women don't need more mentorship, they need more sponsorship." How to offer feedback that genuinely helps, not harms. The surprising reason why receiving no feedback is worse than tough feedback. Why the idea that you "need a team" to be a "real" entrepreneur is a myth. How to develop "advice literacy" and "eat the fish, spit out the bones." Turning negative comments and internet trolls into evidence of your reach. The power of asking "Do you want to talk about this, or do you want me to hate your enemies?" How to stay rooted in your values and beliefs, even when the world is throwing "always" and "never" at you. About Dr. Sarah Glova: Dr. Sarah Glova is a keynote speaker, writer, and researcher known for her insights on communication, leadership, and personal development. Her work challenges conventional thinking and empowers individuals to navigate complex professional landscapes with confidence and clarity. Her TEDx talk, "How to Achieve Your Goals with a Single Page," has garnered over 200,000 views, offering a powerful framework for focus and simplification.

Fear has a sneaky way of keeping us stuck. It takes many shapes and forms, like going after a new opportunity, negotiating a raise, or speaking up for ourselves.

Jess and Jenny also discuss negotiation tips, communication tricks, and the hidden power in words we’ve been taught to shy away from—like "obsessed" and "manipulative."

Through her experiences, she realized the common pitfall of equating self-worth with success, a challenge familiar to many high achievers in today's hustle culture.
