How to Get What You Want
You already know what you want. The question is, do you know how to get it?
On How to Get What You Want, Susie Tomenchok shows you how to navigate the moments at work that actually determine your career. The conversations, decisions, and situations where what you say and how you show up shapes your career growth, leadership presence, and professional advancement.
Because getting what you want isn’t about being louder or more aggressive. It’s about how you think, how you position yourself, and how you handle those moments at work.
And whether you call it that or not, that’s negotiation.
Not the kind that feels pushy or uncomfortable. The everyday kind you’re already in.
When you decide to speak up in a meeting
When you ask for an opportunity
When you handle workplace conflict
When you position your ideas and advocate for your value
Each week, Susie breaks down real workplace scenarios, communication strategies, and mindset shifts so you can stop second-guessing yourself and start getting what you want in your career and your life.
How to Get What You Want
Are You Diluting Your Power Without Realizing It?
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
It’s not just what you ask for. It’s how you ask for it. In this episode, I’m walking through three deceptively simple strategies that have helped countless women shift how they show up, how they’re perceived, and how confidently they navigate their work.
If you’ve ever walked away from a meeting thinking, I could have handled that differently, this is for you. We’re talking about silence, framing, and the ask. These aren’t nice-to-haves. They’re everyday negotiation tools that sharpen your influence and change the way others experience you.
This isn’t mindset fluff. These are practical habits you can use every day to build clarity, confidence, and leadership presence.
In this episode, I’ll cover:
- Practicing silence as a signal of confidence and authority
- Making small, intentional asks that build your negotiation muscle
- Spotting where you’re softening your message and how to reframe it with clarity
