Text us your questions and thoughts!In this episode, I'm talking to Carly Agar, the founder of Carly Agar Training Services, or, the career coach who helps people land customer success jobs.Carly shares some surprising facts about herself, including how it took her a year and a half to start having a voice on LinkedIn and actually start showing up because she was scared before she started posting and putting her thoughts out. She also discusses what helped her find her voice and how she got over her fear of people judging or not agreeing with her.Carly talks about how having a message or a mission means that you have thoughts that you want to put out into the world, usually because you want to help someone, and when you hold back and you don't share your message out of fear, you're actually doing a disservice to the audience who you feel you can help.
