Are Promotions Really Worth It? The Surprising Truth No One Talks About

Are you sure you want that promotion? 🎯 In this episode of She Makes it Work, we dive deep into the reality behind the promotion hype. While everyone seems to think a promotion will solve all their problems—more money, more authority, more respect—the truth isn’t always so simple.
