What happens when your confidence gets shaken… and you try to buy it back?
Episode Description
In this episode of Rooted in Your Confidence, Samantha Kaye Harris sits down with financial strategist Shannon Brome-Ward to talk about the powerful connection between confidence, money, and the environments women work in.
Many women working in high-pressure or male-dominated workplaces are making good money, yet still feel uncertain about speaking up, negotiating, or making financial decisions. When confidence gets disrupted at work, it often shows up in our finances too.
Samantha and Shannon explore how women can begin shifting that pattern by becoming more intentional with their money and building financial security that supports their confidence.
In this conversation, they discuss:
• Why relying on one paycheck can make women feel stuck
• How financial knowledge can strengthen confidence
• Why women often hesitate to negotiate their compensation
• The importance of creating an exit strategy even if you plan to stay
• How learning to invest and build assets creates options and freedom
Shannon also shares a powerful story about coaching a woman through a salary negotiation that led to a $1 million compensation package, showing how preparation and confidence can change the outcome.
This episode is a reminder that confidence doesn’t come from external approval. Sometimes it grows from the stability and knowledge we build for ourselves.
When women understand their money and their options, they show up differently.
