We’ve forgotten what worthiness looks like. Here’s a quick reminder.
Jamie Lee is an executive coach for smart women who hate office politics. She helps them get promoted and better paid without throwing anyone under the bus.

We’ve forgotten what worthiness looks like. Here’s a quick reminder.
I'm a transplant from South Korea and a naturalized New Yorker for 19 years and counting.
A career and executive coach for women.
Someone learning to navigate the perimenopause journey.
Can we please talk about perimenopause?
Perimenopause is NOT a disease, not just hot flashes, and not something most doctors -- nor most workplaces -- understand.
EVEN THOUGH NEARLY ALL WOMEN GO THROUGH IT -- at the peak of our careers.
I used to be a high-strung, high-anxiety high-achiever who was convinced she wasn't achieving fast enough.
Got downtime on the job? I must be doing something wrong.
Got hired at a hedge fund? My job can't possibly be safe, because I don't know enough.
What we do need is more women, more minorities, and more capable folks sidelined because of historic injustices speaking their desires and claiming their values — without guilt and without apology — while cultivating the kind of self-respect that nurtures mutual respect.
Angela joined me on the podcast to discuss the fascinating insights from prehistory -- yes, way before the invention of writing things down -- that debunk the myth that patriarchy is just "the way it's always been."
It's about going on a sober, science-backed journey through time, 10,000 years before modern civilization, to uncover the true roots of gender oppression.
I turned away a prospective client today. She’s someone who’d fit my “best fit client” profile (if you’d excuse the marketing speak). Smart, competent, promoted in the STEM field. A potential feminist hero 🦸♀️!
🏀 I am the Michael Jordan of coaching women into career ascension.
📈 I’m obsessed with repeated slam dunks into more clarity and confidence that get competent women promoted and better paid. Like my client Tracy.
Wanna get promoted by Q4?
Here’s how.
No funny stuff.
The dead simple answer.
A client came to the session saying that she was having trouble advocating for herself at work because the issue felt like this (places palm over face) -- that she had no objectivity. The issue felt too close for comfort. She couldn't see the broader picture, and she felt stuck. If you can relate to this, try this technique I demonstrate in a 3-minute video tutorial.
Like the iPhone, learning the inner logic of our brains is user-friendly and doesn’t require a science degree. You can become skilled at using this inner logic to help you generate more confidence, get promoted, and get better paid.
In this space, we alchemize workplace anxiety, stuckness, and frustration into pragmatic groundedness, forward momentum, and therefore, gratifying self-actualization.
The real secret to negotiating for what you want ISN'T something you don't already know.
It's actually about DISSOLVING the reasons you hesitate, "wait and see", or avoid having conversations with people who can say no.
20 years ago, we were graduating from Smith and had NO idea that we can grow in our careers faster than we thought possible WITHOUT
✅ Overworking
✅ Over-accommodating
✅ Or overthinking the whole thing.
Still working on that last one? You’re not alone.
We explore the profound connection between our foremothers' dreams and our contemporary achievements. We celebrate the legacy of women's liberation and the transformative power of financial freedom.
If you work for a bully who’s a heartless a-hole, my heart goes out to you, and I invite you to try this simple and powerful technique for stress reduction called Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT).
What results would you need to create for the coaching to pay for itself?
What if, as a result of coaching, you negotiated a pay bump?
And what would it be worth in the long run to have the mindset and strategies of confident self-advocacy become second nature to you?
The SECRET SAUCE to effective self-advocacy isn't to convince -- or to contort your communication tactics inauthentically, or to push your perspective on others in an aggressive and unethical way.
It’s easy to forget what an incredible privilege, astonishing gift it is to be a woman — anyway you define womanhood.
In this photo, I’m graced by two gorgeous genderqueer girlfriends for whom embracing their femininity is a brave step in bucking the “rules.”
