I’m Sorry and Other B.S. That Keeps Us Overworked and Underpaid

by Leave a Comment

I am mad today…at myself…for subconsciously giving my power away a couple of weeks ago.

My boss missed a meeting with me because he forgot to reschedule it. When we finally connected, he apologized then I interrupted with, “oh no problem, I was worried you thought I’d missed the meeting.”

When I replayed that conversation, I got so mad at myself for not just accepting the apology (that was legit owed, btw) and for taking responsibility for something I had no control over and had no fault in.

Even in that temporary moment, I gave my power away. I literally and figuratively gave my boss permission to not have to respect my time or apologize when he doesn’t.

So why does this matter in the larger scheme of things?

It teaches people how to treat you. When people feel like they don’t have to respect you, they don’t.

When someone doesn’t respect you, it can become very easy to look over you, undervalue your talent, or even take you seriously for a raise and promotion. Of course, we aren’t responsible for what others think but we are responsible when we give them permission not to.

To R-E-S-P-E-C-T,

Ashley

Ashley's program helped me highlight my strengths in order to appeal to an employer and helped me define the things I want and need in a company so that we are a mutual compatible fit.

I have received three promotions and a larger salary since Ashley revamped my resume! I loved Ashley’s ability to listen but also take feedback from me without being offended. She is very knowledgeable and in some cases I asked her to use her best judgment because I trust her experience and know-how.

I received an immediate response to the updated resume! I’m on my second interview in the industry and position level I was seeking.  Absolute pleasure working with Ashley. She’s a true professional and I loved how easy our communication was.

When I first reached out to Ashley, I was feeling desperate to land a new job quickly. After she updated my resume, it took less than 1 week for me to receive a job offer. I feel much more confident and look forward to new career opportunities. The new resume and cover letter Ashley delivered to me were amazing! It took less than 1 week after posting my resume to receive 3 phone interviews, 2 in-person interviews, and a job offer!

Ashley did a great job of showcasing where I’m a specialist (when I often paint myself too often as a generalist) on my resume.

All around AWESOME experience, Ashley really feels like a partner in the process. It can be deeply frustrating finding the best way to showcase yourself in one page, but working with Ashley makes it far less daunting (dare I say even enjoyable?)
The way in which Ashley highlighted my skills is what put my résumé on top again and again! I was offered three different positions in less than a month. One potential employer even created a specialized position to match my skill set! Thanks to Ashley, when I walk into an interview I speak confidently, knowing any potential employer can easily see how I add value to their organization. Thank you Ashley, you blessed my life!

Ashley was my saving grace! I initially didn’t think I had anything to work with considering my new career shift. Ashley was honest with me and after two calls she reassured me we had enough to make my past experience transferrable to my new career. Once completed I felt my brand was written perfectly on paper. Overall great experience. I will be recommending Ashley to others. Since revising my resume I've landed a role in my new field!

I now have a very specific resume that I can share with prospective employers. Ashley was very flexible and listened to what I wanted to feature as an expert in my industry while filling in the gaps with her expertise that resonates across industries.
