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
Confidence Isn’t the Starting Point; It’s the Outcome with Sarah Barnes-Humphrey
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
You don’t need to feel ready to start. You just need to start. That’s exactly what Sarah Barnes-Humphrey did when her life and career imploded overnight. In this conversation, Sarah opens up about what it took to rebuild her confidence from scratch and how she used small steps, side hustles, and her own voice to get there.
We talk about what it really means to be seen, and why self-worth isn’t something you wait to feel. It’s something you create.
Today, Sarah is the host of the Blended podcast and the author of the #1 Amazon bestseller I Buried Her in a French Press. She’s built a platform rooted in advocacy, inclusion, and helping others feel seen, but none of it came easy.
In this episode, I’ll cover:
- How to build self-worth when you don’t feel confident yet
- Why you need more than one option and what it gives you
- How to stop telling stories that dilute your value
