You can speak quickly if you enunciate more, but you hardly move your mouth when you speak, so that could be something that helps too. Either slow down or enunciate more... or both. Also, I'm a professional vocalist and I can tell that you're speaking in a lower register of your voice. Whether you're doing it purposefully or unconsciously, that is another thing you're definitely doing to be taken more seriously.

I moved in the last two years from a female dominated to male dominated space. Both from men and women I get that I am “not warm enough” or “intimidating”. I don’t want to be overly nice and also recognize I am a woman that speaks super direct and monotone/turned down at the end of my statements. I feel like I have to play into some of this in corporate
I do not accept meetings that I do not need to attend 👏

I heard something the other day about not using the term “Male-dominated” because honestly they’re not dominating it or us lol the field may be male populated I thought you might like that due to your content and POV

I’m still working in my mid 70s and I love it. But man, those habits of sort of acquiescing and explaining yourself as a woman in a professional field they are super hard to let go off. I cringe when you were giving this presentation because I recognize that I do do many of those things. I do feel confident and I absolutely take the time to look nice dress and take my job seriously but those other mostly female coded behaviors unfortunately I do often.

Your speaking presence is powerful! So powerful that when you apologized for reading the statistic I could feel how it stood out from the rest of your speech pattern. As a Canadian woman, automatically apologizing for existing is a hard habit for me to break, but I see why I need to work on it.

As a short woman in finance who loves a red lip, YES to all of this. If I can add one more… when a client makes an unreasonable request, I ask, “Is that something you would ask of your mortgage provider?” Usually helps check their attitude.

Karrie Porter • Photographer :
These videos are one of the reasons I love following and being friends with you on TikTok. I am not a naturally decisive person if left to my own devices; it was learned skill. And I’ve learned there are areas in my field (photographer) where I feel like soliciting input (ie “Are you guys feeling more beach vibes or would you prefer more architecture and history?”) is what makes certain clients feel they have options and it’s more “me seeing their vision”, but also I have learned to be more decisive and assertive with clients who clearly have a specific problem to solve and criteria for what success looks like to them, and with them being more like an advisor (ie “Hey you mentioned that you’ve never been to Key West before and you want to keep the engagement private. Since everyone else goes to the beach, we’re not going to do that. I’m going to set you up with the Sunset Experience at the Lighthouse at 7pm. You’re going to want to wander the grounds for about 10/15 minutes to kill time, and plan to propose by 7:15. I’ll be there to capture it when you do. After that we’ll get photos at the top of the lighthouse tower, which has an incredible view of the island, and I’ll make sure they have a charcuterie and bubbly under the string lights for you when you descend back down. You’ll have the entire place to yourself and it will be really unique and special.” And then resisting the urge to say “Sound good?” or “How does that sound?” Which is SO hard not to do - again that natural propensity towards needing to ask for input. But 100% of the time when I stop there and don’t seek validation, the guy goes “Um..wow…yes….sounds amazing….send me the contract”. 😏 It’s a balancing act for sure and I love the psychology behind all this stuff.
