17 Jul 2025
Show Notes: What if your biggest obstacle to success wasn’t a lack of skill—but a habit you didn’t even know you had? In this powerful episode of Beyond Six Figures, Ziv sits down with Sally Helgesen, one of the world’s leading voices on women’s leadership and co-author of the best-selling book How Women Rise. Together, they explore the unconscious habits that hold even the most talented women back from rising, especially the all-too-common belief that hard work alone should speak for itself. Episode Highlights The #1 habit that holds women back: Expecting to be recognized without self-promotion How to ask for help without feeling weak—or losing your power Why over-investing in expertise may actually slow down your growth Sally’s technique of “informal enlistment” for building support networks How business coaches can better support women leaders Simple ways men can offer support without overstepping The power of saying, “If you’re interested, let me know” Why inclusion isn’t just politics—it’s a business reality Sally’s new mantra for leadership: “Give others the benefit of your goodwill” About Sally Helgesen Sally Helgesen is a globally recognized women’s leadership expert, award-winning author, and one of the world’s top-ranked management thinkers.
