Meredith Fineman - Brag Better

Episode Notes

In this episode Lauren and Meredith discuss:

•  Redefining the word, “brag” 
•  For the “qualified quiet” - getting your voice heard
•  Why bragging is a necessity 
•  Four parts to a brag

Key Takeaways:

• Marketing and promoting yourself is an essential part of career-building. Bragging is all about sharing your accomplishments. 
• Redirect your focus and effort from silencing loud voices to getting your voice heard. 
• Bragging is simply stating facts. It’s full of alot of feelings, but it’s all about stating the facts to the right people so that they can know about it. 
• Cultivate internal gratitude and pride and translate that into presentation and showmanship. 

“As much as I’d like to be optimistic and say that we could get those loud people to be quiet, that’s not how we retain information. We’re bombarded by so much all the time that you really have to fight to get heard.” - Meredith Fineman
