Remember when your career had momentum? When recruiters chased YOU? When your network opened doors effortlessly? 𝘕𝘰𝘸? Crickets. Silence. And a flood of irrelevant job postings.

It’s frustrating, isn’t it?
     ↳ You’ve built a high-impact career. 𝐒𝐨 𝐰𝐡𝐲 𝐢𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐤𝐞𝐭 𝐢𝐠𝐧𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐧𝐨𝐰?

Every week, I see executives on LinkedIn frustrated about age discrimination.

And they’re right. 
It exists.

But while you can’t control bias, you can control perception. 
The way you present your experience and the language you use can either reinforce assumptions or challenge them.

Even the most accomplished leaders unknowingly use wording that makes them sound dated instead of current.

Here are three phrases I see all the time and how to replace them with language that reflects modern executive presence.

👇👇👇

1. “Seasoned Leader with 20+ years of experience”
2. “Responsible for…”
3. “References available upon request”


Presentation is strategy. 
Every word on your resume shapes how hiring leaders perceive your readiness and relevance.

Inside my upcoming Resume Writing Workshop, I will show you how to update your language, structure, and design so your resume tells a story that is impossible to ignore.

“Recall a moment you were genuinely drawn into.
Where were you? What was happening? Who were you when you were fully there?”

That’s the question Mia Zifkin asked me.

And I didn’t know how to answer it. 
I’m very good at answering from the surface. 
Quickly. Competently. 

This question didn’t want that.

So instead of forcing an answer, I let it follow me.

I went back through my photos to notice when my smile felt forced and when it didn’t, when I looked happy versus when I actually felt drawn in. 

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐟𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐨𝐝 𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞.

There’s something spiritual about noticing what we usually rush past.
Baby frogs hiding in the grass.
Trees just beginning to bud.
The way the sky softens right before the sun disappears.

Those moments slow me down without asking anything of me.
My shoulders drop.
My breath deepens.

If I’m on a beach, shaded by a palm tree 🌴 listening to the steady rhythm of water, my whole body exhales like, 𝘰𝘩…𝘳𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵, 𝘛𝘏𝘐𝘚.

Then I noticed another pattern.

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞𝐬 𝐈 𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐩𝐞𝐨𝐩𝐥𝐞 𝐈 𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞.

I genuinely love the planning.
The logistics.
The negotiations.
Yes, even the spreadsheets.

From hosting a reptile zoo party for the five kids on my street whose birthdays all somehow landed within days of each other,
to taking all the cousins to the Dells,
to Santa in a penthouse,
to helicopter rides over Sedona.

What fills me isn’t how impressive any of it looks.

It’s holding the responsibility so everyone else gets a break.

A break to play.
To rest.
To just live inside the moment without managing it.

𝐓𝐡𝐚𝐭’𝐬 𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐟𝐞𝐞𝐥𝐬 𝐛𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐦𝐞.
.
.
.
𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐟𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲, 𝐈 𝐬𝐞𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐚𝐦𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠.

I don’t love being an attendee at events.
As an introvert, the small talk, the scanning, the “where do I fit into this conversation?” feeling is exhausting.

But put me on stage as a speaker or facilitator?
Everything shifts.
Connection feels easy.
Actually fun.

𝐀𝐧𝐝 𝐨𝐧𝐥𝐲 𝐚𝐟𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐧𝐨𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐝𝐢𝐝 𝐬𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐜𝐥𝐢𝐜𝐤.

I realized how much joy I feel simply feeling like a woman.
𝘕𝘰𝘵 𝘢 𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘰𝘧 𝘮𝘺𝘴𝘦𝘭𝘧 𝘐’𝘮 𝘴𝘶𝘱𝘱𝘰𝘴𝘦𝘥 𝘵𝘰 𝘧𝘪𝘹.

There’s something wildly freeing about letting my body be lived in instead of judged. 


𝐀𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐦𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐦𝐨𝐬𝐭.
Like dancing while cooking with the people I love. 

That’s when I’m most present.
Not because life is calm, but because it’s alive.

𝐒𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐕𝐚𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐞’𝐬 𝐃𝐚𝐲,  
𝐈’𝐥𝐥 𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐚𝐦𝐞 𝐪𝐮𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐌𝐢𝐚 𝐚𝐬𝐤𝐞𝐝 𝐦𝐞:

When do you feel genuinely drawn into your life?
Who are you when you’re fully there?

Cheers to an abundance of self-love, self-worth, play, moments of joy, and community, especially during the hard times 💗
