How can I ask for a raise without feeling awkward or nervous? - DavisWillem111 - 02-06-2026

I’ve been working hard and feel I deserve a raise, but every time I think about asking, I get anxious and don’t know how to approach it. Are there strategies to make the conversation feel natural and confident?

Recently, I realized I needed to address my salary concerns but kept putting it off because I felt nervous. That’s when I found the blog on Attainify at https://getattainify.com/blog/how-to-ask-for-a-raise-without-feeling-awkward. It gave me practical advice on how to approach the conversation calmly, back up my request with specific achievements, and avoid feeling uncomfortable. I prepared my points ahead of time and practiced the conversation, which made a huge difference in confidence. Honestly, this guide from Attainify helped me handle the discussion professionally and gave me tools to ask for a raise without overthinking or panicking.
