The Likeability Trap, Being Your True Self, and How to Stop Caring About Being Liked with Alicia Menendez

Do you care about what other people think of you? Are you ever told you’re too aggressive, or not aggressive enough? Have you been called too bossy, bitchy, naive, or nice? PSA: Most women have experienced the Likeability Trap and Goldilocks Conundrum (be nice, but not too nice!). On this week’s episode, Josie sits down with Award Winning Journalist, MSNBC Anchor, and author of The Likeability Trap, Alicia Menendez, to discuss why women are wired to care about being liked, why the system we’re in is harmful for every gender, and how to get out of the trap once and for all. Alicia also discusses how to get to know your true self and show up as your true self in the workplace, social settings, and your relationships.  Hosted on Acast.
