UNSHAKEABLE HER: Get Promoted by Building Leadership, Influence and Confidence (For Women Done Being Overlooked)
You're already leading. So why does it still feel like nobody's noticed?
Unshakeable Her is the leadership podcast for ambitious women who are done second-guessing themselves in systems that weren't designed for them. Every week we get into the promotion strategies that get you recognised for the leader you already are by exploring the real science of leadership confidence, the unwritten rules of influence, and how to build the kind of presence that makes promotion inevitable.
Hosted by Caroline Esterson - a leadership development specialist with 30 years inside hundreds of organisations, who knows exactly why brilliant women get overlooked and what to do about it.
This podcast offers practical, repeatable ways to build influence, confidence, and career momentum.
Each week you'll learn:
- How to build the visibility and strategic positioning that gets you promoted.
- How to lead with more influence without losing yourself in the process.
- The science behind imposter syndrome in leadership (and what actually shifts it) so you can get promoted.
With new episodes every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, ‘Unshakeable Her’ delivers stories, strategy, and insight to help you become someone nobody can shake.
New here? Episode #7 is your imposter syndrome reset. Episode #56 is where leadership finally clicks.

What do you do when the career knockback was months ago, but your confidence still hasn’t come back?
After a redundancy, restructure, rejection or career setback, there comes a point where everyone else expects you to be “moving on”, but inside, you may still feel stuck, unsure and quietly questioning whether you are as capable as you thought.
In the final episode of this week's career comeback series, Caroline brings together Sasha’s story, the science of confidence, and the emotional power of Rise Up by Andra Day to show that rebuilding does not happen in one big brave leap. Instead, it happens through tiny, intentional moves made despite the ache.
In this episode, you’ll discover:
- Why you don't need to wait until you feel fully confident before you start moving forward again
- How to stop measuring your recovery against someone else’s timeline and reconnect with real evidence of your capability
- Three small, practical moves that can help you restart your confidence loop and begin leaning into your next chapter
Press play now to start rising from your career knockback with clarity, evidence and one small move that reminds you who you are.

New episodes are released every Monday, Wednesday and Friday mornings.

Unshakeable Her is the podcast for women in leadership who are ready to build real influence, earn the promotion they deserve, and lead with confidence in systems that weren't built for them. Each episode tackles the challenges that shape leadership from the inside out, including imposter syndrome, resilience, credibility, boundaries, conflict, and feedback, while unpacking how pressure, workplace politics, strategic thinking, decision-making, and visibility affect the way ambitious women grow, lead, and get promoted without losing themselves in the process.
