    The Hidden Power Drivers of Peak Performers with Dr. Fern Kazlow #WomenWILL008
    Sep 13 2023
    Have you ever doubted your strength and ability to perform at your best? What was hindering you from operating and thriving?Nowadays, many people are giving themselves less value and worth as someone who can do better than the average. Often, we are not taking full authority to achieve their greatness. Dr. Fern Kazlow is a New York licensed clinical psychotherapist, speaker, author, business, marketing, branding consultant/strategist, and mentor to high performers. She has been a leader in integrative, holistic approaches to business and mind-body health since the mid-1970s. In 1981, she founded Integrative Therapy and Integrative Action. She later opened one of the first holistic centers in New York City. Her center's growth was due to her unique approach to health, healing, and personal and business growth. This approach teaches individuals how to consciously create the life they want instead of being limited by what others – or they – currently see as possible. It ultimately evolved into what is today known as The Kazlow Method. In this episode, Dr. Kazlow and Laura talk about the hidden power drivers of peak performers. Dr. Kazlow will impart her knowledge of expertise regarding peak performance, high performance, and peak potential and what it takes to unleash and master our full potential as individuals with a different line of intelligence.

  • The Power of No - Marisa Peer (Part 2) #WomenWILL002

    The Power of No - Marisa Peer (Part 2) #WomenWILL002
    Feb 7 2021

    #002— Many yeses are actually 'no' in disguise, says Marisa Peer. She candidly tackles the many unacceptable behaviors that women often tolerate instead of drawing strong boundaries, and she addresses the critical skills of great leaders. Marisa Peer is a world-renowned therapist and speaker, RTT trainer and best-selling author. 

    "Until you can say 'NO', 'YES' has no meaning. Learn to say, I'm hurt. That wasn't right." This takes courage to know your own needs and draw clear boundaries. The key? You have to know that "I am enough".

    In part 2 of this candid conversation, Marisa Peer & Laura Kuimba address head-on the suboptimal behaviour that women are often trained to accept across different areas of life. (Some of our listeners may find this mildly disturbing because of trauma or bad experiences in intimate relationships in their lives). 

    Marisa also sheds light on the most important skills of a leader, i.e., thinking outside the box and seeing things differently.
