Today, we are exploring outdated perceptions of this phase of life that has been known as “retirement” . We are going to explore the new perception that women are embracing as they craft a new chapter that I now call the Executive Encore. I call it the Executive Encore for good reason.....
As my guest, Suzanne Campi says….Surprise! Retirement is here and you’re just NOT as old as you thought you would be! You’re still vibrant, full of life, and up to so much…..
What's important to you? Take the quiz.
Returning to work in 2025 doesn’t have to mean falling back into the same grind.
Female founders, now’s the time to realign with what matters most. Take a moment to reset, restore your energy, and rise stronger.

💬 Gender disparities in fundraising communication. How female entrepreneurs can adapt their approach to succeed in these high-stakes situations. Pitch your dream; not the stats.
My guest, Katie O'Malley, shares her perspective and expertise on the unique and persistent challenges women face in the workplace and the need for representation at the highest organizational levels. Katie highlights five main challenges: the double bind, the idea of only one woman succeeding, the "dearth" of recognition, gender-normed behaviours, and the "made-up" concept of imposter syndrome. Katie urges us to actively recognize other women's achievements and deconstruct gender norms to promote equal opportunities. Katie recommended the "Feminist Fight Club" by Jessica Bennett for practical strategies to address these challenges.Katie is a female entrepreneur with expertise in providing career coaching, leadership development, and workplace consulting to individuals and companies in the US and the UK. Since launching (en)Courage Coaching in 2018, Katie has been on a mission to elevate underrepresented individuals to the rooms where decisions are made. True workplace joy and justice remain elusive until these groups are represented at the highest organizational levels.

As women executives, entrepreneurs, and leaders in our respective fields, we often prioritize our work and caring for others above everything else. We constantly strive and push ourselves to meet deadlines, achieve goals, and attend to the needs of others. While determination and hard work are commendable traits, it's equally vital to prioritize self-care proactively instead of reacting only when overwhelmed or distressed.Self-care encompasses a wide range of practices that promote physical, mental, and emotional well-being. Self-care can include exercise, healthy eating habits, meditation, spending time with loved ones, pursuing hobbies or interests, and taking breaks from work. The analogy of the airline safety message "apply your own mask first" is cliche. Linda introduces us to the power of embracing the "Me First" mindset. Linda shares her venture on the Camino del Norte in Spain, flanked by contrasting cruises. Discover how Linda relates travel to self-care and navigating life transitions.

Long before they approach the crossroads such as monumental birthdays, some women experience an event that changes their perception of what fulfillment looks like.
A diagnosis of cancer can profoundly shift our perspective about what is important and what is best … for us.
When this monumental shift involves our personal AND our professional lives, we are forced to reflect on our desire, our capabilities, and our capacity to continue our work.
We negotiate our workload to navigate the demands of client work and our own expectations for our performance while honouring the healthy integration of work, life, and self-care.
In this podcast, Alexis Gladstone shares how her recurring diagnosis led her to focus on what was important in life – and what wasn’t. That meant navigating client work and her own expectations.
Alexis is the founder of Intelead, a consulting practice based in Chicago.
Alexis designs strategies and programs to help clients develop current and next-generation leaders and drive organizational change that delivers results. She is passionate about gender equity and is a sought-out voice, trainer, and coach on the topic of women and leadership and helps clients recruit, develop, and retain female talent.
