Career Growth for Working Women | Career Advancement, Visibility, Promotion, Raises
Do you ever feel like you're doing everything "right" at work, yet you're still being overlooked?
Maybe you're leading projects, solving problems, mentoring teammates, and delivering results, but your title and paycheck haven't caught up with the value you create.
Maybe you're wondering why someone else was promoted when you know you've been making a bigger impact.
Or maybe you're simply tired of waiting for someone to finally notice everything you bring to the table.
If that sounds familiar, you're in the right place.
Welcome to Career Growth for Working Women, the podcast that helps high-performing women become impossible to overlook and the obvious choice for raises, promotions, and leadership opportunities.
I'm Shannon Fox, Promotion & Compensation Coach, and I believe one simple truth:
You're not being overlooked because you lack talent. You're being overlooked because your impact isn't positioned clearly.
Every week, I'll help you learn how to strategically communicate your value, increase your visibility, navigate workplace dynamics, and position yourself for career opportunities that align with your strengths, your values, and the life you want to build.
Because getting promoted isn't about working harder.
It's about making it easier for leadership to recognize the value you're already creating.
Whether you're preparing for a raise, pursuing a promotion, navigating office politics, building executive presence, or simply trying to figure out your next career move, you'll find practical strategies, honest conversations, and coaching that you can immediately apply.
We'll talk about career positioning, visibility, leadership, confidence, burnout, boundaries, compensation, AI, networking, and what it really takes to grow your career without sacrificing yourself in the process.
So grab your coffee, or reheat it for the third time, and let's build a career that supports the life you want, pays you what you're worth, and makes you impossible to overlook.

125 | The Quiet Burnout Successful Women Don’t Talk About featuring Lin Yuan-Su
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
What happens when your career looks successful on paper… but internally something feels deeply misaligned?
Many high-achieving women reach a moment where the life they worked so hard to build no longer feels right. The title is impressive. The salary is strong. The stability is everything they once worked toward.
And yet something inside quietly says: this isn’t it.
In this episode, Shannon sits down with Lin Yuan-Su, a mindset and life transition coach who experienced that moment firsthand.
Years ago, Lin found herself sitting alone in her car in a parking lot, unexpectedly crying despite having a respected healthcare career, a six-figure salary, and the kind of stability many professionals spend decades trying to achieve.
That moment became a turning point.
Not because she had a clear plan… but because she finally acknowledged the misalignment she had been ignoring for years.
Today, Lin helps high-achieving professionals reconnect with purpose, challenge long-held definitions of success, and create careers that align with who they are becoming.
This conversation explores burnout, identity, gratitude, and how to reconnect with what truly matters.
What We Cover in This Episode
✅ Why successful women can still feel deeply unfulfilled
✅ The quiet burnout many high-achievers experience
✅ The turning point that forced Lin to reevaluate her career
✅ Why external success doesn’t always equal internal alignment
✅ How gratitude can shift your mindset in powerful ways
✅ The danger of tying your identity solely to your career
✅ A simple exercise to rediscover what truly matters to you
✅ How to begin reconnecting with your purpose
You don’t have to immediately quit your job or change everything.
Sometimes the most important step is simply slowing down, reconnecting with yourself, and creating space for clarity.
When you begin with inner alignment, the path forward becomes much easier to see.
