EP32: How To Self Advocate with Grace
EPISODE 18 • SEASON 2 00:21:14
🚨 Are You Ready to Advocate for Yourself Without Losing Your Cool? 🚨

Episode #32 of the Black Office Unlocked podcast just dropped, and this one’s all about How to Self-Advocate with Grace. 🎙️ It’s not about speaking louder—it’s about speaking smarter.

In this episode, I break down practical tools to help you stand out and get what you deserve in the workplace:
  
🔑 CCAR Method – Master the art of storytelling with this structured approach to communicate your achievements.
  
🔑 Wins Journal – Because if you’re not keeping track of your wins, who will? Start documenting so you're always ready to speak on your value.

🔑 Opportunity Brief – A low-key power move to make sure key decision-makers see your potential for new roles and projects.

And because we love a good cultural reference, we’re bringing in wisdom from Jadakiss, Common, Tony Gaskins, and Kendrick Lamar to help illustrate each point. Think of it as career advice with a cultural twist that resonates. 🎶
