When was the last time you asked yourself: How did I get here? Digital Products and Delivery Consulting Executive, TianEn Stephenson, is no stranger to that question as she has used the reflections of her career as the inspiration behind her newly released book, Closed Mouths, Don’t Get Fed: The recipe of asking and getting what you want in the workplace.

In the next episode of the Beyond The Business Suit podcast, Kailei Carr unpacks TianEn's personal journey to success, from her father's lessons on speaking up for herself to navigating a significant career change that has landed her the opportunity to help others learn how to "win" within their careers. TianEn teaches us how to live in a state of alignment by not letting our insecurities drive our paths and encourages us to build strong professional relationships that keep us on a path of uncovering our true purpose.
