Just Ben this week. In our very first solo episode, we go deep on the topic Ben has been teaching inside every PILOT cohort since day one, the one that shows up in almost every coaching conversation he has, the one that he considers the single biggest unlock in a career: self-advocacy.
Knowing what you need, knowing how to ask for it specifically, and being willing to hear no – and knowing when and how to ask again.
Topic Highlights:
– Why the current moment makes self-advocacy more urgent, not less
– The fear of rejection reframe: why if you haven't been told no recently, you're probably not asking enough
– What a specific, “shovel-ready” ask looks like
– The information asymmetry most people miss: your manager almost certainly doesn't know what you need
– The secret menu: why your career’s has more options on it than the one you've been ordering from
