How To Speak Up And Use Your Voice (When It Matters Most)

How To Speak Up And Use Your Voice (When It Matters Most)

Speaking up sounds simple… until it’s you. Until you’re worried about upsetting someone. Being judged.Looking difficult.Getting rejected.Or taking up “too much” space. In this episode of Self-Worth School, I’m joined by Jo Tarnawsky to talk about what it really means to use your voice - especially in the moments that matter most. Jo shares her experience of working as a diplomat for 25 years in the Australian government before eventually speaking publicly about workplace harassment and power dynamics after a long period of silence, fear, and self-protection. Together, we explore why so many women hold themselves back from saying what they really think, the hidden cost of staying quiet, and how courage is something we build through smaller moments - not just big dramatic ones. This episode is about self-worth, boundaries, confidence, and learning to trust that your voice deserves space too.
