They discuss the cultural differences in how bragging is perceived, the importance of receiving compliments, and the need to celebrate achievements. The conversation emphasizes the significance of visibility, self-worth, and the power of sharing both successes and failures. Heidi Hinda and Anna also touch on practical strategies for building confidence, such as crafting an engaging About page, using alter egos, and imagining one's legacy, concluding with reflections on their journey through the podcast and their future plans.

Takeaways

Bragging is essential for businesswomen at any stage. Cultural perceptions of bragging differ significantly. Women often struggle to receive compliments and acknowledge their worth. Celebrating small achievements can build confidence. Visibility in business requires overcoming the fear of judgment. Crafting a compelling narrative is crucial for marketing oneself. Using an alter ego can help in embracing one's achievements. Imagining your legacy can clarify your goals and aspirations. Sharing failures is as important as celebrating successes. Confidence in achievements leads to greater ambition and risk-taking.
