Getting the Corner Office, But Losing My Voice?

I always thought landing a leadership role would feel like winning the lottery, but honestly, it’s been a lonely road. I just started as the team lead at our Dallas office, and suddenly, it’s like I’m invisible. My team barely looks at me, and every idea I share seems to vanish into thin air. The hardest part? I can tell they think I’m too inexperienced to be in charge. It’s like my age is a wall I can’t climb, no matter how hard I try. I’m starting to doubt myself, and I can’t help but wonder if anyone else has felt this way. If you’ve ever been the new leader who felt like an outsider, how did you earn your team’s trust? I’d really appreciate any advice or encouragement right now. 😔 #NewLeaderStruggles #TeamDynamics #SeekingAdvice #JobCareer
