4+ y ago28:38

28:38

Most women have a love-hate relationship with words like LEADERSHIP and POWER. Yes, we want to make an impact and influence others.

4+ y ago23:11

Empower Your Strategy - EP030 24:06

5y ago24:06

24:06

We have created a working culture where there is only space for Superwomen. So, we adopt an attitude of whatever-it-takes, leveraging the patriarchal strategies of dominance to reach our goals.

The Power of Projection - EP027 27:51

27:51

Memory is a fickle thing. You may be confident that your memory of an event is absolutely correct, yet someone else may remember the details very differently—and be just as confident that they’re right.

The Power of Selfcare - EP023 27:34

5y ago27:34

27:34

We live in a culture that seems to revere pushing ourselves beyond the limits of what is healthy. We wear sleep deprivation as a badge of honor and move our own self-care to the bottom of the to-do list (if it makes the list at all) lest we be seen as selfish or vain. But how can we lead with power, clarity and grace if we are drained, irritable an…

In the US alone, a woman dies of a stress-related heart attack every 28 seconds. But what is causing this kind of life-threatening overwhelm and anxiety?

The Power of Acknowledgement - EP019 13:43

5y ago13:43

13:43

We all claim to want LESS drama in our lives. But when it comes right down to it, most of us pass judgement on everything and everyone we come in contact with. We then mistake those personal opinions for an objective representation of the external reality—which separates us from others and causes conflict. We make MORE out of what was observed and …

The Power of Loving Your Ego: Turning Your Fears into Fuel - EP015 12:03

Conventional wisdom tells us that ego is a bad thing.
