  • 42: Boundaries and Burnout (Listener Favorite from Archives)
    Jun 5 2023

    If you've been in corporate for quite some time, you already know how easy it is for burnout to sneak up on you.

    It makes us unmotivated, uninspired, and just plain exhausted. 

    It can manifest in big ways (anxiety attacks, loss of sleep) or start small (feeling stuck, less interest in passions) but it’s all super dangerous.

    The good news? There are things we can do about it. 

    In this episode, you'll learn:

    • What burnout *really* is and how to identify the symptoms
    • How to prioritize delegation and mentorship as a leader
    • Three strategies to avoid burnout from happening so often

  • 41: What Does Leadership Mean To You? (Listener Favorite from Archives)
    May 29 2023

    Lady, I have a question for you…

    What do you want your legacy to be? 

    In this episode of the PowHER House Podcast, we are replaying one of our top listener favorites from the archives about your leadership style and how it plays into your legacy.

    I’m sharing a powerful framework to define what leadership means to you so that you can craft your own unique leadership style while also taking control of your career trajectory. After going through a series of thought-provoking questions, it will help you better understand how to truly excel and dominate in your field. 

    I learned over time that when you focus on what matters, you’ll climb the ladder without realizing it. Don’t climb the ladder just to climb it. Climb it as a result of your hard work and passion.

    In this episode, we discuss:

    • Why you’ve chosen this path for yourself

    • The power of defining your legacy

    • Emotional resilience and personal values in the workplace

    • Four questions to determine what leadership means to you

  • 40: How to Make a Powerful Transition (Listener Favorite from Archives)
    May 22 2023

    Today on the PowHER House Podcast, we are replaying one of our top listener favorites from the archives about transitioning from one role to another. 

    The experience is a challenging experience for many. Regardless if it's due to layoff, termination or your personal choice to leave a toxic environment – I know what you’re feeling. 

    It’s a period where you put your feet on the ground and feel like there’s nothing there; like our power is lost in the mix. 

    So, in typical fashion, I want to remind you to approach this transition by commanding your power; to reach deep down and believe in yourself the way I do. 

    To see yourself as the powerful, confident executive that you are - who deserves so much. 

    In this episode, you'll learn:

    • Why you may be experiencing the transitional period
    • Commanding the mindset that you’re ready to move on
    • Building your dream position
    • Using networking to your advantage
    • Listening to your intuition

  • 38: Negotiating for Corporate Success (Part 3)
    May 8 2023

    Are you tired of leaving money on the table? 

    When I was in corporate, I accepted a job offer for a six-figure salary, not realizing that my predecessor was making 26% more for the same exact role.

    After seeing this, I realized that I had been conditioned by society to be so grateful for the first offer and not to negotiate, leading me to leaving a significant amount of money on the table.

    Through my experience, I later realized that the majority of job offers extended to men were countered, while only about 0.8% of offers extended to women were.

    That’s why in this new episode of the PowHER House podcast, we are continuing our negotiation series and talking through the toxic beliefs and societal conditioning that hinder women's negotiating efforts, while also sharing strategies on how to overcome them. 

    I am talking through how to command your power, embrace a love of money and success, and hire subject matter experts to improve your negotiating skills and overall worth. Make sure to tune in, grab your workbook with the link below and listen to the other episodes in the series if you haven’t already!

    You’ll learn:

    • How to negotiate like a white dude

    • The culture of paying sticker price in business

    • How to overcome salary negotiation challenges as a woman

    • Embracing financial success as women

    • The art of salary negotiation

  • 37: Negotiating for Corporate Success (Part 2)
    May 1 2023

    Lady, I have to ask you something… What do you think you deserve? 

    I have struggled with anxiety for most of my adult life and I really saw that showing up when I was in corporate. 

    But at the heart of it all, it boiled down to my underlying feelings. My nagging, intrusive thoughts, big secret worries about being financially secure, thoughts of not being good enough, or the thought of not being deserving of the position that I was in, were holding me back. 

    So once I understood that root cause, that forced me to dig deep and find out where this all was coming from. 

    I discovered that these were subliminal and subconscious - well, sometimes conscious - messages that we've been taught as women from the day we are born and then over and over every day for the rest of our lives.

    That’s why in this second episode of our negotiation series, we are going over the root cause of why so many women don’t negotiate and how we can overcome it by understanding how deserving we are of having what we want. All we have to do is stop letting the lies define us, and step out of the box so that we can live in our PowHER.

    You’ll learn: 

    • What deservingness really means

    • The secret shame that impacts self-worth

    • How to overcome rejection

    • The steps to boldly negotiating

    • Statistics about the difference between men and women negotiating

    • Why so many women struggle with negotiating in general

    In my 16 years in corporate, I realized that I needed to embrace the fact that I’m not for everyone. 

    One of my biggest pieces of advice is to stop carrying the baggage of everything the world has told you to be into your career, life, and personal relationships. I did that early on and guess what? I messed up a lot because I wasn’t showing up as my authentic self.

    So in this final episode in our PowHER of You series, we are talking about the PowHer of Your Authentic Voice with our special guest, Emma Wainer, so that you can stop watering yourself down, be who you are and use your authentic voice.

    She has also developed and delivered corporate training programs on Advanced Presentation Skills for IT Professionals, Presence and Impact for Women, Storytelling for Business, Conflict Resolution, Embodied Leadership, Interview Skills, Voice for Business, as well as coaching speakers for TEDx Events.
