Are you tired of waiting to be noticed and ready to be compensated for the value you already bring?
You are in the right place.
Career Growth for Working Women is the podcast for ambitious corporate women who want to advance their careers, increase their income, and gain recognition without overworking, people-pleasing, or shrinking to fit outdated expectations.
I am Shannon, a Promotion and Compensation Coach, and I help women fast-track their next promotion by teaching them how to show their value so clearly that leadership cannot overlook them.
Through my 5% Method, we focus on positioning you for meaningful raises, promotions, and career growth because when you consistently perform above and beyond, your pay should too.

92 | Trusted but Not Chosen: Why High-Performing Women Get Stuck Without Being Positioned
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Have you ever thought, “I’m trusted with everything… so why am I not being chosen?”
This episode is for the woman who is relied on, looped in, and given access, but still feels stalled when it comes to promotion, authority, or influence.
Because here’s the truth most women are never told: trust and positioning are not the same thing.
You can be deeply trusted at work and still not be seen as “next.”
In this episode of Career Growth for Working Women, we unpack why being dependable, safe, and reliable can actually keep you anchored in place and what has to shift for leadership to envision you at the next level.
You’ll hear:
✅ Why trust signals safety, not readiness
✅ How women become trusted without being envisioned
✅ The difference between being relied on and being elevated
✅ Why leadership does not automatically connect trust to promotion
✅ How credibility gets stuck protecting the present instead of shaping the future
We also talk about the emotional confusion that comes with being praised, appreciated, and counted on, yet still feeling overlooked when opportunities arise.
This is not about leaders having bad intentions.
It’s about how systems respond to signals.
If you’ve been wondering why your credibility hasn’t turned into movement yet, this episode offers clarity without blame and a new way to think about what comes next.
You are not stuck.
You are trusted.
And now, it’s time to be positioned.
