Why Don't You Believe Me?
Show Notes

Our first episode of 2024 addresses a listener question: What do I do when my leader doesn't believe that I'm at capacity? Imagine your leader has asked you to take on new work and you are stunned. You think, “Can’t you see I already have too much to do?!” You try to tell them, but they don’t seem to believe you. Trust issue alert! Ila and Charles discuss the importance of building a foundation of trust so disbelief doesn’t creep in, and how you can address it when it does, while building trust in the process.
