The Pivot and Promotion Podcast - Career and Leadership Advice Dani Tan - Leadership and Career Coach

Bonus Episode: I was recently featured on Steph Wharton's podcast, the ⁠Whole Damn Vibe where we discuss tapping into your authenticity.



-----------------------------------------------------------



Today I’m interviewing Dani Tan—one of the leaders I featured inside the Latinx + Hispanic Heritage Month Pop-Up Directory on Instagram. Through this directory and interview series, my hope is to use my platform to help amplify the voices and stories of other badass latinx leaders.

Dani is a Leadership & Career Coach who honed her pivot and promotion skills to grow into the First-Gen, Asian-Latina leader she is today.

Over time, she’s learned to turn conversations into job opportunities and pivoted multiple industries: public relations, sales, merchandising, and e-commerce while achieving 11 promotions in 11 years.

Tune in today as we learn to tap into your own authenticity without the roadmap with Dani.

Inside today's episode, we dive into:


Putting pressure to fit in as women instead of standing out and taking up more space
Not feeling seen because you don't allow yourself to be seen
Experiencing additional pressure to fit in when you're the first one like you doing the thing
Spaces and systems set up for folks who are not like you
Learning to tap into your own authenticity without the roadmap
Inspiring change within your own community through your diversity
Dropping the shame and breaking the rules of how things *should* be done
Not feeling enough as a First-Gen Asian Latina and learning to own your identity
Uncovering your own strengths instead of embodying what works for others
Harnessing your innate skills to become a more impactful thought leader and speaker
Creating your own opportunities
Surrounding yourself with a like-minded community to finally feel seen (finding the right island for you)
What happens when you keep putting yourself out there

In this episode, you can listen to the replay of Dani's workshop from Thursday, April 4, 2024, How to Network When You Have No Network.



In this series, we'll delve into strategies, exchange stories, and offer valuable insights on pivoting careers, pursuing promotions, strengthening leadership skills, and discovering your voice.



Join me, Dani Tan, Leadership & Career Coach, as we explore the many paths to career and leadership development.



I’m a first-generation Asian-Latina leader who has pivoted careers five times while achieving 11 promotions in 11 years. I went from a sample coordinator to a VP of a multi-billion-dollar company.



I’ve worked in public relations, sales, merchandising, and e-commerce, and am now a leadership and career coach.



My leadership and career coaching path started with volunteering at a non-profit as a mentor coach for first-generation college students seeking career guidance. It then evolved to colleagues looking for mentorship and support. They couldn’t find leaders they identified with and wanted a similar path to success.



I found that most of us have it within us to achieve our dreams but don’t always have the tools or role models to get there.



I’ve dedicated my mission to coaching those who are seeking to be leaders for themselves and their community. I share the strategies and tools I created and sought throughout my career.
