Say It Skillfully® - Beth Porter, Small & Mighty Over Self-Doubt
Say It Skillfully® is a show that helps you to benefit from Molly Tschang’s expert guidance on the best possible ways to speak your mind at work in a positive and productive manner. In Episode 119, Molly is joined by Beth Porter, who has become a creator of some of the highest quality tech-enabled learning experiences for people around the world. Beth describes what it was like growing up “small but mighty” with a tall personality in a short body as well as having a love for academics AND athletics—jock meets geek! Her early confidence stayed with her, enabling her to go from wide-eyed college student with passion for learning and teaching, to CEO who’s done pioneering research and led product and engineering teams; she developed a digital learning software used by more than 55 million people worldwide. Beth shares valuable lessons from her early career including the importance of taking time for yourself and valuing that each person is special. Beth is no stranger to adversity, don’t miss out on hearing how she remained stalwart in the face of unavoidable self-doubt, nearly going out of business and mastering the art of learning through failure. And, hear her thoughts on having to work in a “man’s world” for certain companies, as well as female entrepreneurs being funding-challenged in starting their business relative to men. Don’t miss hearing her story unvarnished. Beth inspires us all to know no boundaries and to commit to taking action, so that all can be safe, seen and heard, and be our true and best selves. Molly’s thought for the week—words from the Indian sage, Poonjaji: Stop. Stop everything. Then you will realize you are the freedom you have been searching for.
