50% of us don’t negotiate our compensation package.
34% of women don’t go there
That can lead to a $1M+ loss over the course of a lifetime

We break this down to address:
Is it awkward to introduce the idea at the negotiation stage?
Does it arouse concerns that you’re looking for a free ride?
What’s the best approach to ask for it?
And at what level is it an absolute must to get it on the table?
In Part II we also talk about:
The gender gap
How to probe for commitment to DE&I
And how to build the confidence to ask for what you need

Customer Reviews
What a blast!!!!
Loren pulls the best out of her guests and brings all the juice to her listeners! Such powerful messages and so implementable!!
A must follow!!!!!
Tremendous resource!
You have to look after your own career. The idea that simply doing good work will get you to the next level rarely works - people have to know about you and what you do. This is all the more important in this era of remote work.
Whether you’re 25, 55, or in between, Loren’s podcast packs great info into 30 minutes each week that will help you shepherd your career to the next step. It not only gives you access to great guests, but it also provides a roadmap to delve deeper into specific subjects that are most helpful to you.
I’m starting a new position myself but I am going to continue to listen to Loren to stay on top of my career and ensure I’m ready when it’s time to take the next step.
A Hosts, Host!
I had the honor to be a recent guest on Loren’s show and it was fantastic. As a host myself, I love when I'm on the other side of the mic and get asked great, insightful and unique questions- and she does a stellar job. I recco this show (and my episode 😉) to anyone on the job hunt. A+ in my book!!!
