“We have so much more in our own control than we acknowledge”. Erica Rooney knows there are big glass ceilings that are tough to bust through, but she also believes that sometimes we also hold ourselves back. Erica is a C-suite executive, speaker and podcaster who’s on a mission to help women break free of what she calls “sticky floors”. Those are the limiting beliefs and toxic behaviours that keep us from moving forward. On this episode Erica explains those sticky floors, and how they can show up as a lot of things: imposter syndrome, fear, burnout, and Erica’s own sticky floor: stress management with wine. She says that leaning into self-discovery and getting curious about how you handle your own stress management can help you figure out your sticky floors. But until you clean up those floors, you can’t reach your full potential.
