Where is your expertise leaking?
Find the exact place your expertise leaks before it becomes income in 5 minutes or less.
I wasted so much time second-guessing myself that more opportunities than I care to admit have passed me by.
I did not send the pitch.
I did not name the price.
The post that lived in my drafts for months never went out.
I sat quietly in rooms I was invited into and let someone less qualified take the question I could have answered in my sleep.
I had two master’s degrees, a professional certifications, and years of corporate and academic work behind me. The résumé said I was ready.
The voice in my head said I needed one more thing first. I told myself I needed one more certification, one more year of getting ready, one more reason to wait.
I assumed the problem was me, and that if I were just a little more polished, the recognition would follow.
It never did. So I began examining myself closely. An income gap emerged in one of five places I kept seeing over and over, in my own work and in the work of every woman I talk to.

The List You Own.
Once I identified where the leak was coming from, I gained more clarity on what action to take, which is why you will see further enhancements and refinements to this publication over time.
One of those areas is leaking your expertise right now, and you probably have a suspicion of which one. But suspicion is not a plan, and shame is a terrible diagnostic tool. So I built a tool that is not based on shame. I needed it for myself before I built it for anyone else.
The Expertise to Income Leak Quiz takes 5 minutes or less and there is no email required. At the end you get a tier read, your primary leak named in plain terms, and three specific moves you can make this week.
It tells you where to start, not where to feel bad about. Afterall, you cannot close a gap you will not name, right.
Be sure to reply to this email after you take the quiz. I want to know if it is helpful.
