Description

Role models shape how we see ourselves and who we become, yet many women hesitate to claim that title. Why do young women confidently identify their role models while seasoned professionals shy away from the idea? Jane Bertch unpacks this disconnect, sharing insights from her research and personal experience. She breaks down the difference between mentors, sponsors, and role models, explaining why all three play a role in personal and professional growth. She also challenges the modern idea of an “influencer” and makes a case for seeking out role models who inspire action, not comparison. If the people you admire offer a glimpse of your future self, who are you looking to? This episode will help you rethink the voices shaping your path and encourage you to curate a vision for who you’re becoming. Quotes “Your values, I believe, are your voice. And we talk a lot about discovering your voice, growing into your voice. Well, your values are how you deliver what’s important to you and how you present yourself.” (07:56 | Jane Bertch) “You don’t have to want to emulate everything about that person. I cherry pick from people who I consider role models all the time.” (09:11 | Jane Bertch) “Your role models are so important because your role models are a future vision of yourself. They are a future vision of yourself. Your role models are the vision board. If I use that term, they’re the vision board of who you want to be, who you hope to be.” (16:30 | Jane Bertch) “Surround yourself with a diversity of information and opinions. We have access to so many different voices. Choose the ones, as we said, that make you feel that you’re growing, that you’re learning, that you feel good about yourself, that share with you. They don’t show off to you.” (17:36 | Jane Bertch) Links Connect with Jane Bertch: Website: www.janebertch.com Instagram @janebertch Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm
