Another life affirming podcast, friends. Ever find yourself underpricing your services? Over-delivering on your promises? Not watching your numbers or being on top of your finances?

I know, it can be daunting. I had an incredibly inspiring discussion with 7-8 figure entrepreneur Melinda Wittstock Entrepreneur~Podcaster~CEO Podopolo on her podcast about money and the pursuit of it.

Even the language around it – is infused with archetypal masculine energy, and today on Wings we discuss how this alienates or intimidates a lot of women, at least subconsciously simply because it clashes with our innate feminine energy and our societal blueprinting.

Listen to learn:

  • How to transform your relationship with money by leveraging your feminine power
  • Why women must learn to “stand for your worth and dignity” so you honor your talents by charging your worth and have empowering money conversations.
  • What challenges women’s relationship with money, including subconscious beliefs from childhood, society, and good intentioned people in your life
  • How to have empowering money conversations without being triggered
  • And much more!

Listen to Wings of Inspired Business #podcast to learn how women in business can change their relationship with money in alignment with innate feminine powers of intuition, empathy, and desires, click here.

The wonderful Kendra Swalls has me as her guest on the Girl Means Business Podcast. We talked about Recalibrating Your Money Mindset.

The conversations was all about women’s relationship with money. My brand tag line, “Stand for your worth and dignity” comes from my expertise of transforming your money relationship (habits, behavior and beliefs) so that you honor your talents by charging your worth and have empowering money conversations. With that comes transformation on all levels.

It comes from recalibrating your money story – changing it from imprinted old beliefs from childhood, society and good intentioned people in your life to a relationship that is empowered, abundant and trusting – and learning to have empowering money conversations without being triggered.
It’s the condition of your wealth consciousness and how it affects your sales conversion.

Wealth consciousness means how you are in relationship with money –how you think, feel and act with money – and to what degree it affects your self-worth and value.

I am so honored to be featured on a recent episode of the Leadership Purpose with Dr. Robin Podcast!

Mary and I had a cozy chat about life, the gift in the challenge with Covid, what brings us joy, my daily craving to live in my creativity and joy, and how I protect that energy. Join us while driving, exercising, cooking, walking!

Listen to our full conversation, click here.

My gracious host, Donna Gammon, host of Power to Grow and owner of Life Healing Solutions & Power To Grow, chatted with me about the absence of joy, creativity, fun, and my intuition in my life that led to major burnout and then breakthrough which transformed my entire life and business. I share with her audience how I made feminine energy and power front and center in how operated. With that, profound changes led me to a life of joy and fulfillment.

This is a good one for all women entrepreneurs! 

I talked with my wonderful host, Brentney Parks of Total Fit Boss Chick, about how I help my clients collapse the time frame of raising their revenues while leveraging their business in a way that does not burn them out by following their joy, intuition, and working in their zone of genius more often. 

I demystify this by explaining how our practical, logical, and intellectual approach to life is not the only way to achieve desires and goals. That’s part of it. The not so talked about and encouraged part of the equation is our intuition, especially as a woman. The feminine arts is a powerful way to live when we combine a masterful blend of both, masculine and feminine. As a result, you will have a more fulfilled, less stressed and spiritually-rich life and results.

My client, Stacie Poythress, a marketing and event production expert, graciously invited me to be a guest on her non-profit’s podcast, Single Parent Advocate, I was delighted to share my favorite topic of how committing to joy and prosperity as a lifestyle and mindset, can change lives while giving yourself permission to go after your dreams.

I shared how my days of being a single Mom were very challenging emotionally, financially and mentally, but I kept my focus on keeping a positive home environment for my son and teaching him a good work ethic. It’s all we had given our circumstances.

Today, I am proud of who he is as a 30-year-old young man who is self-sufficient in his own Real Estate Investing business. I never have to worry about him. He lives by good values. Thank goodness.
Please join us for a two-part episode Stacie named it, “What Lights YOU Up?”

We cover topics: Positive/No Limits Mindsets, Celebrating Successes, Emotional Intelligence, Work Ethic, Creativity, Compassion, Investing in ourselves, and more

What’s your take on infusing your brand with social responsibility? Compelling conversation about brand social responsibility with podcast host, Lynn Whitbeck of Petite2Queen

Why should companies concern themselves with social responsibility? Is it about what’s morally right, or would companies see direct benefits, too?

My answer: ALWAYS! It’s morally right as a business to support a cause and give back, donate time, money as part of the eco system in life – giving back is always a good idea.

As a business, your involvement with your chosen cause is excellent social media content positioning you as a compassionate, educated, caring business owner who believes in serving a cause greater than yourself.

How can we do social responsibility?

My answer: Find a cause that is aligned with your values, perhaps something that happened in your own life. For example, when I was diagnosed in 2003 with breast cancer, I chose Susan G Komen LA affiliate to volunteer for and add to my business platform because of my desire to inspire other women to be proactive about their health.

I ended up becoming their volunteer speaker chair for 6 years speaking to audiences small and allege about my survivor story and Komen initiatives. I loved helping women. Lives are changed and you make a difference.
