72. Managing Mindset Challenges with New Mexico United's Director of Corporate Partnership Activation, Caity Sobel

Aug 5, 2021

Only 3 years out of college and Caity is already the Director of Corporate Partnership Activation for New Mexico United. 

What I love about my conversation with Caity is not only did she share her wins over the past three years, she was open and honest about things like imposter syndrome or being nervous when it was time to advocate for herself!

Listen in as we talk about: 

• That pivotal moment when she decided to major in sports & entertainment 
• How she went from coordinator to director in 18 months 
• How she manages imposter syndrome 
• Her advice for being an effective salesperson in corporate partnerships 
• How she used her voice to be compensated her worth 

 

And you know there is so much more!
