What if the biggest reason you’re not being promoted has nothing to do with office politics, company structure, or how hard you work? In this transformative episode, host Bernadette Boas sits down with Diane Taylor, founder of Glow Leadership and author of Elevate Potential, to expose the surprising internal blocks that silently derail professional advancement.

Diane reveals how unconscious habits, emotional blind spots, and unexamined internal patterns dictate how we behave, lead, and ultimately rise—or stall—in our careers. She breaks down why leaders lose trust, how chaos becomes a comfort zone, and why intentional inner work is the true fast track to career success.

Whether you're a rising corporate star, a seasoned leader, or someone feeling stuck, this episode gives you the clarity and tools to shift from “Why not me?” to “Watch me.”
