Fake it, Make it, Own it: Debbie Hayler on Building Confidence Without Credentials (Episode 42)

Welcome to another episode of the Secret Resume podcast, where we’re all about digging into the juicy stories behind the LinkedIn profiles. Today, Melody welcomes Debbie Hayler to share her captivating journey full of unique twists and turns that didn’t quite make it onto her CV but have definitely shaped who she is today.

Debbie shares what it was like growing up as a victim of school bullying, and how those tough experiences played a part in moulding her career perspective. You’ll hear about the ups and downs of her educational path, her decision to pursue performing arts, and eventually her rewarding career in Learning and Development (L&D).

Get inspired as she talks about imposter syndrome, the impact of an empowering TED Talk by Amy Cuddy, and the profound difference a supportive mentor can make. Plus, Debbie spills on her incredible feeling of validation after winning a prestigious L&D award, and how she’s now ready to inspire others by stepping out of her comfort zone.

So, grab your favourite drink, sit back, and enjoy this discussion between two passionate human beings delving into the magic of personal growth and professional journeys.
