Do you ever look back and wish you had a do-over?
You dissect your actions and wonder how things could have played out differently, if only you knew then what you know now. But, give yourself a break because hindsight is always 20/20.
I don’t like to spend time on regret. It’s a waste of mental and emotional energy and keeps you in the past. I want to live in the present.
That said, there is one thing that if I could go back and time and do differently—I would.
I can’t time travel, but I can do better than that. I can share my experience with you and help you change your life for the better!
I wish someone told me this when I was in my twenties…

Do you have a work BFF?
Your ride-or-die on impossible projects. That person who sends you hilarious memes during the most painful meetings. The one you share the best and worst parts of your personal life with.
They make everything about the workday better, don’t they?
But, what about the flip side? Is there someone on your team that you can’t stand?
They never do what they say they’re going to do. Everything they say feels like a personal attack. Just the sound of their voice chiming in on a conference call gets on your nerves.
We all have them.
Here’s the brutal truth. You’re always going to work with people you don’t like. It doesn’t matter what you do for a living. It doesn’t matter where you work. It’s a universal truth that unites us all.
There are tricks to help you deal with these people. Let’s have an honest talk about dealing with co-workers you don’t like.

You’re bold, ambitious, and extremely capable. But, sometimes, you need help.
Whether it’s a workload that’s pushed you beyond your limits or a problem that seems impossible to solve, there are times when the best option is to ask your boss for help.
Asking for help goes against our nature as Type-A corporate badasses! It feels uncomfortable. Awkward. Intimidating. Mortifying. But, there’s no need to feel ashamed or embarrassed about it!
It’s time for a reframe on this topic. Because there are times when asking your boss for help is a clear sign of your strength—not the weakness you fear. Stop harboring your stress and frustration; it’s time to have the conversation you need to have.
You can absolutely ask for help—and keep your stellar reputation intact! Let’s talk about how to ask your boss for help.

One of the most overused buzzwords directed toward women is “self-care.”
Each time this term comes up in popular news outlets or social media, it comes with to-do lists of assorted treats to purchase or New Age activities to try.
I have a very different view on this important topic.
Self-care is at the core of my everyday routine. It’s one of the things that fuel me to achieve big goals and has generally made me a happier person.
It’s worked for me, and it can work for you, too. Let’s talk about a new way to think about self-care.

The rise of remote working has completely changed the corporate landscape.
Companies are no longer limited by location to hire the talent they need, and employees have a level of flexibility that most people never dreamed would be possible even just a couple of years ago.
It’s easy to see the advantages. But, we’re now starting to feel the disadvantages, aren’t we?
It’s harder to get up to speed. It can feel lonely and isolating. Let’s be honest, work is more enjoyable when we do it with people we know and like!
We can complain about it, or we can do something about it. If you are feeling isolated, it’s time to take some action. I have some ideas to help! Let’s talk about how to feel more connected as a remote worker.

We often see advice about how to ace an interview as a job candidate. But, what about the flip side?
How do you rate yourself as an interviewer?
What kind of impression are you leaving on job candidates? Are you so focused on vetting them—that you lose sight of the fact that they are vetting you?
When you are asked to participate in job interviews, it’s a sign of trust. Not only because your company values your opinion, but because they are choosing you to represent the company to potential employees.
I break down real-world advice on how to be a better interviewer.

Ever felt like you spend all day in meetings and all night catching up on your work? As much as you and your teammates acknowledge that this is no way to work, nothing ever seems to change. You’re stuck.
The good news is there is a way to break the cycle.
It starts with you and the meetings that you schedule. There are ways you can effectively—and gracefully—cut back on meeting invitees.
I break down simple actions you can take to stop inviting everyone to your meeting.

Spring feels so good when it’s getting started.
You notice the sun is sticking around longer. The air feels crisp—yet you know warmer days are coming. The trees are starting to bud. It’s a time that helps us all feel a little more hopeful and energetic.
It’s a perfect time to think about letting go of what no longer serves us so that we can better focus on what’s next.
Many of us focus this clearing energy on our overcrowded closets and cabinets. But, what if I told you that there are some things in your work life that you should consider letting go of?
Let’s talk about four things you should declutter in your work life.

The pandemic forever changed the way that we work. We proved that we didn’t need to sit in a cubicle 40 hours a week to get our work done.
Three years later, most of us are working in hybrid environments—a mash-up of remote and in-office working—and adjusting to this new normal. There have been countless advantages to hybrid life.
But, real talk time. There’s been one huge disadvantage to those of us who are ambitious and career-driven. It’s much harder to have our badass work efforts get noticed!
Visibility will always be important in corporate America. I break down why and give you the keys to getting noticed in a hybrid world.

Dreaming about buying a house? You don’t have to wait until you find the perfect partner in order for this dream to come true. You can absolutely do this on your own.
One of my proudest moments as a single woman was when I purchased my own home. I wasn’t making a six-figure income, and I didn’t fall into a lucky fortune. Hard work and smart financial discipline got me there, and it can work for you, too.
Let’s talk about planning for your first home as a single woman. I share real-world advice based on my own experience.

Have you ever worked on a project that went completely sideways? One of those situations where mistakes get made, tempers run high, and all attempts to course-correct fail.
It happens to the best of us. Yet, these situations seem to pull out the worst in us.
Everyone gets so caught up in protecting their own behinds that team dynamics and performance devolve even further.
When a team gets to this unhealthy place, a reset is needed.
A post-mortem meeting is an effective way to reset team dynamics and improve team performance—if it’s run well by a cool-headed facilitator.
I break down how to run a post-mortem meeting.

Everyone makes mistakes at work. Yes, even we type-A personalities that want to think we are flawless.
It happens. The unfortunate typo that gets printed on 10,000 brochures. The emotional outburst in a very public team meeting. The bad formula in a spreadsheet that results in an unfortunate billing error.
Yes, everyone makes mistakes. But, not everyone recovers gracefully with their professional reputation intact.
How you handle yourself in these moments makes all the difference in how you are perceived in corporate America. I break down how to recover from a f**k up.

It’s the last day of Dry January. Now what?
Sure, you’ve been craving that nice glass of red. But, have you noticed how much better you’re feeling? There are reasons why you’ve been sleeping better and getting to the gym more often than usual—and one big one is the fact that you haven’t been drinking alcohol.
If you want to keep feeling the benefits of Dry January—but aren’t quite ready to give up social drinking—there are easy ways that you can be smarter about your alcohol consumption.
Let’s talk about what to do after Dry January.

As ambitious women, we talk a lot about goals. Setting goals, chasing goals, achieving goals.
We’re driven by what’s next to chase. The next promotion, the next career move, the next health target. And to be perfectly honest, the journey toward the next achievement is a key ingredient in feeling fulfilled.
What if I told you it can’t all be about chasing the big goals? Seems like a counterintuitive question for a career podcast to ask, right?
But, my mission is to not only help women dominate their career. I also want to help women build a life they love.
Today, I want to focus on your 2023 bucket list. Do you have one? If not, I’m going to convince you why you need one.

If you are spending your day racing from meeting to meeting—and starting your actual work at 5 pm—you are getting it wrong.
“I have too many meetings,” you sigh to yourself and to your co-workers. “I need to go to these meetings,” you adamantly believe. “My team can’t meet without me,” you say to yourself.
I’m calling BS on all of these beliefs. It’s time to spend your workday on the work that matters!
Don’t know how to break the cycle? I got you. I’ll show you how to start taking back control by doing a calendar audit.
It’s time to break free from the “too many meetings, not enough time” blues.

Returning to the office is one of the hottest topics in corporate America right now.
The 2020 lockdowns have forever changed the way we work. While most of us have no desire to go back to the way things were, there are distinct advantages to in-person work and collaboration.
For the past few months, I’ve experimented with a hybrid work schedule, and I’ve learned how to take the best advantage of a flexible work style.
In this episode, I share five things I’ve learned by returning to the office.

Slow your scroll…
I’m popping into your feed with a gentle reminder. It’s okay to unplug!
I know you are used to being 100% connected 24/7. We all are. But, even badasses like us need the space to rest and rejuvenate.
Let’s all slow down this holiday season and savor the moment. I’ll share what works for me and give insight into how I plan on unplugging this holiday.

There’s something on your to-do list that you’re avoiding. You know it, I know it, and certainly, your boss knows it.
This is your sign to stop procrastinating and get your self-review done.
Yes, the timing of it always feels inconvenient. The end of the year is hectic. With calendars full of work deadlines and holiday preparations, it’s hard to imagine how it would be possible to tackle yet another deliverable.
But, you need to understand that a self-review is more than a corporate box to check. Done well, it can set the foundation for you to have a productive coaching session that defines a path for your upcoming year of career success!
I break down a simple format that will help you craft a killer self-review.

Hangovers suck.
The only thing worse after a work holiday party? Waking up with a hangover AND regret.
Regret that you said too much to the wrong people. Flirted with a cube mate. Went on a tirade about your boss. Danced on a table in a mini skirt. There are so many ways that a work holiday party can go sideways.
That said, it’s a party. It’s also a chance to connect with co-workers and have a little fun!
Let’s talk about having fun at your holiday party—and waking up regret-free the day after.

Sometimes, we need a little emotional pick-me-up. We’re worried or stressed out, and we just can’t seem to calm down our feverish thoughts.
You can try meditation, yoga, prayer, or other mindfulness practices. But, if you’re like me—one of those people who wonders “how long do I need to sit in this silence” when attempting meditation—there’s an easy hack that can help. It’s a little something called the positive mantra. Positive affirmations are a powerful way to calm anxiety and give you a little confidence boost.
But, not all mantras are good for you. There’s one popular mantra that’s actually quite toxic and should be avoided at all costs.
I share the mantra to avoid and why in this episode.

Have you been dreaming about starting a side hustle? Maybe it’s a business idea, a creative project, or a skill you’ve been dying to learn. You have the desire, but you never seem to have the follow-through to make it come to life.
You are not alone. I felt that way for many years! But, I finally found a way to break my old destructive patterns and get it done.
We are all wired differently. That said, success leaves clues that we can all learn from and adapt to our own lives. From that perspective, I am going to share with you how I started my side hustles.
If you’ve been dreaming of a side hustle for years but haven’t acted—this episode is for you.

Ask anyone how they’re doing today, and most likely you are going to hear about how busy they are.
We have filled our calendars with activities, tasks, obligations, and events. We feel the pressure of non-stop interruptions, from our email, phones, and social media feeds.
We’re a stressed-out society. And yet, much of the stress we feel is unnecessary and completely self-inflicted.
You CAN take the power back. I have some low-hanging fruit opportunities to help you start. Let’s talk about 5 ways to stop wasting time.

Every year has an ebb and flow. There are obvious factors that shape our experiences like seasonal changes and major holidays.
But, much of it is shaped by our own personal experiences and preferences. The better we can understand how our energy changes throughout the year, the better we can plan our time and stretch goals.
We’re not designed to relentlessly grind every day. But, we are still capable of achieving big, sexy dreams. A key to success is understanding our own energy patterns and planning accordingly.
In this episode, I break down a planning methodology to help you achieve the big things in your life—and more importantly, learn to respect the season you’re in.

Real talk time.
Too many of us women are uncomfortable talking about money.
Yes, as a whole, we are getting better at it. We’re negotiating better starting salaries. We’re speaking up when we feel overdue for a raise or promotion.
But, would you be surprised if told you there’s a good chance you gave yourself a pay cut and you don’t even know it?
I break down the pay cut you gave yourself—and more importantly, give you advice on how to fix it.

It’s time to spill the tea on bosses.
Let’s face it. They come in all varieties. Some are in it for themselves. Some are generous mentors and coaches. And, the real MVPs become your champions, ensuring that your name and efforts are known and fairly rewarded.
No matter where your boss falls on that spectrum, your relationship with them is critical to your success in your current position. Clearly, a relationship this significant must be nurtured.
When you connect with your boss, are you putting your best foot forward? I will show you how to make the most of time with your boss.

As badass women, so much of what we do every day comes to us naturally. We’re Type-A personalities. We are hard-wired to put our heads down and do the work. We don’t need an audience to see the effort we put in—we know the final result will speak for itself.
But, as you build your career, there will be times when you need to show up and perform your best publicly. Whether it’s a big presentation, sales pitch, or critical business meeting, the pressure is on you to deliver your best.
It’s completely nerve-wracking to feel that kind of performance pressure! We’re so comfortable doing our thing behind the scenes. What if we mess up in a situation where there are no do-overs?
You CAN do this. Feeling nervous comes with the territory. In this episode, I share how to calm anxiety before a presentation.

You have a great idea that you know could make a difference at your company. So, why aren’t you speaking up?
Too often we undervalue our ideas, thinking “well, someone must have thought of this already.” It’s easy to fall prey to these doubts.
But, what IF you were the first person to have that idea? What IF you indeed are the best person to solve the problem?
It takes bravery to speak up. But, I have a powerful gift to make it a little easier.
It’s a simple framework that will teach you how to pitch an idea to your boss. It’s a tried and true method that I have used countless times. I spill all the details in this episode.

I simply can’t hold back from making some bold statements about a hot topic in the pop-business media. Let’s talk about “quiet quitting.”
So, what is quiet quitting? In short, it’s the idea of rejecting hustle culture by literally doing the bare minimum at your job.
I speak to you from the heart when I say these are some of the most toxic and destructive thoughts I have ever heard being directed at young professionals.
Don’t believe the quiet quitting hype. I’ll explain why and give you two actions that you can take now if you are feeling like a quiet quitter.

Let’s talk about leveling up.
There have been about a billion TikTok videos created with that soundtrack, right?
That song is so popular because it taps into a core human thought. We all want more; we all want better. We all have our own unique versions of it, but we all have the same basic instinct.
But, no matter what your vision is, you need to ensure you are laying down the right foundation first.
In this episode, I challenge you to level up your mindset.

In last week’s episode, I gave you tangible advice on how to come out on top in a conflict. But, what about the flip side? What should you do when you have to take the L?

Your communication style is a critical part of your leadership presence. Your words matter. How you express them matters.
Leaders need to be deliberate with the words they use and the style in which they communicate them.
Great leaders have a communication style that is authentic to their true selves. Communication styles vary, but there is one language hack they all have in common.
In this episode, I break down the language hack that all great leaders use.

If you want to be seen as a leader, there’s more to it than picking up experience and expertise in hard skills. There are certain intangibles—leadership qualities—that you must possess. One critical leadership quality is presence. Presence is how you show up in the world. In the office and outside of the office. Of course, this includes a critical place called the internet.
The internet in many ways is a wonderful thing. But, the internet should come with a warning label.
Because the internet is forever.
In this episode, I give you one critical question you must ask yourself before you share anything on the internet.

Setting professional goals that push you to grow in your career and get you noticed as the badass you are is only half of the equation. Goals without action are daydreams.
Goals without a plan are useless.
I am a certifiable goal crusher with a track record to prove it.
In this episode, I break down the methods to my madness and give you three tools to help you move from goal-setter to goal-crusher.

Since childhood, most of us have been fed healthy doses of pep talks to help us build our confidence. Once we start our careers, we are bombarded with articles, seminars, and messaging encouraging us to be confident women.
All of this girl-power & girl-boss energy is a wonderful thing.
But, there is such a thing as overconfidence. And it can be your downfall.
In this episode, I explain how overconfidence can be a career killer.

I’m willing to bet that even seeing the word “feedback” you had some kind of emotional reaction. Maybe it made you smile because you are used to hearing praise.
But, for most folks, I’m willing to bet it gave you an uncomfortable twinge in the pit of your stomach.
We tie up so much emotional baggage on the word “feedback.”
It’s time to look at feedback in a more productive way.
In this episode, I give you a healthy reframing of feedback in the workplace.

That stuck-in-the-mud feeling we all have these days is very real. But, no one is coming to rescue us. We have to rescue ourselves.
The outside world will always bring stressors. But, only you have the power to change the way you feel. Only you can protect your peace.
So, how do we take all the stuff that’s going around us and put it back in its proper place?
In this episode, I present you with a smorgasbord of tactical ideas to help you protect your peace.

Like most adults in the US, I have put on weight during this pandemic.
It’s obvious to see how it all started, right? We comforted our anxiety with comfort food and too much alcohol.
What started feeling like a slumber party has now turned into two years of habit slippage.
It’s time to STOP the slide and shed the pandemic pounds.
In this episode, I give you four small actions that you can take today to get back in control of your self-care.

No, we’re not going to talk New Year’s Resolutions! That’s so 2019.
We’re heading into Year 2 of living in a pandemic. Our lives are never going to be like how they were in February 2020—and it’s time to get over it!

We are in the thick of the holiday season. All this month on The REAL-WORLD FEMINIST® Podcast, we are focused on the important topic of navigating the busy seasons of our lives.
It’s time to get real.
You are wasting too much time on email. You know it, but you just can’t stop.
It makes sense why you feel this way. In Corporate America, email has become a perfectly acceptable way to procrastinate. We compare unread email totals like a badge of honor.
But, hear me on this. Email can be the death of you. It’s time to get off this crazy train! In this episode, I break down how to stop wasting time in your inbox.

It’s the holiday season. It’s both the most wonderful time of the year…and the most stressful time of the year.
This month, The REAL-WORLD FEMINIST® Podcast will be focused on the important topic of navigating busy seasons. I know we can all use some healthy reminders on this topic!
To start out the month, I must ask you a provocative question.
Do you own your day or does your day own you?

They say you never get a second chance to make a first impression.
Every introduction in corporate America starts with some version of the same request: “Tell me about yourself.”
How do you answer that question? Do you mumble the quickest sentence possible so the spotlight can move to the next person? Do you present yourself with confidence?
If you feel uncomfortable just thinking about it, it’s time to get over it.
In this episode, I’ll break down a simple formula to help you create a kick-ass elevator speech.

All month long, we’ve been talking about raising your visibility.
Let’s be honest, this topic makes most of us feel comfortable. Being your own PR person requires courage.
The good news is courage can be built. The more you put yourself out there, the easier it becomes.
It’s a great time to revisit the topic of how to fight that feeling of imposter syndrome.
We high-performers commonly suffer from this tendency. It shows up when we are pushing ourselves out of our comfort zone.
The bad news is these feelings never really go away. But, the good news is you can get much better at managing them.
In this encore episode, I break down how to fight imposter syndrome.

It can be tough to get noticed in corporate America.
In most cases, this isn’t intentional. It’s not a conspiracy against you. The truth is it’s easy to get lost in the organizational layers.
How do you get noticed in that kind of environment?
It’s simple. You have to be your own PR person.
In this episode, I want to talk to you simply about adopting this mindset.

One of the simplest, yet effective tools in positive psychology is a positive mantra.
A mantra is a brief sentence or phrase you repeat to yourself. The words remind, coach, console, or inspire you. The best ones do all of those things.
But, there’s a common mantra that’s actually more harmful than helpful.
In this episode, I reveal the positive mantra you should avoid as much as possible.

Summer is my favorite season of the year, for so many reasons. One of my favorite things to do is catch up on reading actual, physical books. There’s nothing quite like the joy of lying on a beach and reading until the sun comes down.
To celebrate my joy of summertime reading, I wanted to share with you three books that had a profound effect on my life when I discovered them in my 30s. I was overworked, stressed out, and trapped in a cycle of negative thoughts. These books changed my way of thinking and, in doing so, changed my life.
In this episode, I share deeply personal insights and the three books that changed my life.

It’s a hot topic, but what is thing called imposter syndrome, anyway?
A recent Harvard Business Review piece describes it simply as “doubting your abilities and feeling like a fraud at work.”
We high-performers commonly suffer from this tendency. It shows up when we are pushing ourselves out of our comfort zone.
The bad news is these feelings never really go away. But, the good news is you can get much better at managing them.

A listener asked, “How can you tell if you’re micromanaging someone or managing someone who doesn’t like being told what to do?”
This is an important question. Because acting like a micromanager is a career-limiting move. The simple fact is no one wants to work for a micromanager.
That said, giving employee feedback is a tricky business.
I’ll break down four questions so that you can do some self-examination and answer the question, “Am I a micromanager?”

You landed the interview. You’re prepared and ready to speak thoughtfully about your professional experiences.
But to stand out as a star candidate, you have to do more than be ready to answer questions.
You need to ask your own smart questions. The best interviews are two-way conversations—not interrogations.
In this episode, I will break down what to ask an interviewer to make a great impression.

I used to think that mindset was something you were born with.
You were either an optimist or a pessimist. You have a good disposition, or you have a bad disposition.
I was dead wrong.
In this episode, I will teach you how to change your mindset. Listen with an open mind and be ready to do some work.

Ugh, balancing meeting time and work time is an everyday struggle!
It’s important to defend your calendar and be deliberate with the meeting invites that you accept.
But, there is a right way and a wrong way to decline a meeting request.
Done well, you demonstrate critical thinking skills and everyday leadership.
And…when it’s not done well, you come off as lazy or irresponsible.
Let’s make sure you are putting your best foot forward.

One of the most important relationships you will have at your workplace is with your direct manager.
Think of your manager as more than just your boss.
Your manager can be your mentor, investing extra time to help you build your skills and experience.
Your manager can be your sponsor, showcasing your talents and contributions to a more senior audience.
And, let's not forget this key point!
Your manager has direct influence over your promotions or raises.
A relationship this integral to your career path must be nurtured.
There are many ways that you can build and improve your relationship with your boss.
But, in this episode of The Real-World Feminist Podcast, I’ll give you my personal insight into the single most effective way to turn your boss into your #1 fan.

Want to know if you are doing great at your job?
There’s one super clear sign that you are on the right track. You get asked to teach or supervise another team member.
Whether this is a moment you’ve been waiting for—or this opportunity was suddenly thrust upon you—it can be pretty intimidating.
One day you were an individual contributor, kicking ass and minding your own business.
The next you are a manager—someone else’s manager!
I mean, are you having a “holy crap!” moment yet? How do you now show up well as someone else’s teacher and boss?
It’s good to feel a little anxiety about this topic.
Because this opportunity to help another person build their career is a true privilege. Not a right.
In this episode of The Real-World Feminist Podcast, I’ll give you my three personally road-tested keys to being an awesome manager.

I love getting big things done.
There’s nothing quite like the feeling of accomplishing a big, fat, juicy goal.
The bigger the goal, the bigger the rush.
But, the bigger the goal, the better your daily systems need to be.
Big goals aren’t accomplished by big singular actions or events.
Big goals are accomplished in small, everyday actions that translate to great successes over time.
The best way to accomplish big goals is to make sure you are setting up each day for success.
Once I got clear on this fact, my wins got bigger and bigger over time.
In this episode of The Real-World Feminist Podcast, I’ll give you my tried and true personal method to set up each day for success.

How often do you get to 5 PM and realize you just spent the entire day on conference calls?
Only like every single day, right??
Ugh, I'm right there with you.
Working from home in quarantine seems to have made this problem 1,000 times worse.
The sad truth is so many of these calls didn't need to happen in the first place.
That's why I'm tackling this topic head on!
In this episode, I break down 5 questions you should ask yourself before you schedule your next meeting.
You can be known for holding meetings people actually want to attend.
And if you know a certain someone who can use this advice, why not share this episode? ;)

Remember how much fun social media used to be?
A great night out on the town with friends? Every toast & round of drinks was documented.
A meme that hilariously reminded you of that one person that got on your last nerves? It had to be shared, of course!
But, social media got a whole lot more complicated once you joined the professional workforce, didn’t it?
Suddenly, you’re linked up with a bunch of co-workers you don’t even know that well.
And that friend request you sent to a higher-up & now regret? You can’t take it back without it being noticed.
You’re now editing yourself and longing for the days when you could let it all hang out!
Don’t worry, I got you.
I’ll break down how you can keep it real—all while keeping it professional on social media.
If you think it doesn’t matter, you are dead wrong.

Glory hallelujah, spring is officially here!
Soon as the temperatures start going up, I start itching to throw open the windows and Marie Kondo the crap out of everything.
If you are like me, why not take advantage of this seasonal energy and put it to good use for your career?
Yes, my friends, it’s time to spring clean your professional presence!
In this episode of The Real-World Feminist Podcast, I break down three main tasks that you should tend to this spring for the good of your career.

It can’t be denied that we women have come so far in the workplace.
But, it must be simply said.
Until we can be assured that we are being paid equally for equal work, until sexual harassment is a thing of the past, until we have equal representation on executive boards – we have a long way to go.
It can seem overwhelming at times.
The good news is that every single day, we have opportunities to help make our workplaces more inclusive environments.
Examined individually, the opportunities may seem small enough to be insignificant. However, cumulatively over time, these micro-actions could lead to the start of a revolution.
In this episode of The Real-World Feminist Podcast, I give you three simple ways that you can make a difference, starting today.

As I connect with women who are interested in building their careers, there’s a subject that seems to come up without fail.
The hot topic is mentorship.
Questions come up such as…
How do I find a mentor?
What makes a great mentor?
Do you have any tips on how to ask someone to be my mentor?
Women have a lot of burning questions about this issue!
In this episode, I’ll break down the keys to a successful mentorship so that you can pursue a mentor relationship of your own.

Thanks to Congressional resolutions passed back in the 1980s, here in America we celebrate Women’s History Month every March.
In the simplest terms, the intent of this month-long holiday is to encourage all Americans to learn more and celebrate the role that women have had in American history.
What an awesome intent!
But, if we are being honest, over the years there’s much that feels hollow about the celebration.
Companies make statements that feel obligatory and generic.
Social media influencers share well-curated graphics celebrating the same handful of standout women in history.
We can do better than this, Real-World Feminists.
This Women’s History Month let’s take some actions to celebrate OUR way.
Let’s do something to celebrate and encourage our FUTURE leaders.

Now with many years of professional experience under my belt, I often take part in mentorship events or have chats when I connect with a young woman hoping for advice.
There is a common question they ask: When you look back, is there one thing you wish you did differently?
They want me to unlock a secret, a how-do-you-get-ahead glimpse behind the curtain. And I always take a deep breath and offer the same answer.
In this episode, I’m getting super personal and sharing with you my #1 regret in my career. I’ll break down some practical advice on how you can avoid this trap.
This might be an episode you need to save and listen again when you need a pep talk, Real-World Feminists! Tune in and let’s get after it!
We high-achievers tend to hang out in packs.
We are simply drawn to other Type-A personalities. People who get stuff done.
Hey, if it was up to us, everyone on our team would be a badass. We’d conquer the world together!
But, the reality is most of us don’t have the liberty to choose everyone we work with.
We get teamed up with an assortment of people. People with very different work styles. People who aren’t as career-driven or are less motivated to contribute to the team’s success. People that you might even think of as lazy—and maybe even incompetent.
How are we supposed to succeed if we are teamed up with people who don’t care as much as we do?
Chill out—it’s totally possible to succeed in these situations. Without taking on extra work!
In this episode, I’ll break down key strategies that you can use when working with less motivated co-workers.
You can make this work, my Real-World Feminist. Tune in and let’s get after it!
When we think about building our professional reputation, most of us tend to think about working towards large-scale accomplishments.
We plan big goals and think that our reputations will be built when we achieve them.
Of course, growing our experience and skills is critical to building our career paths.
But, our professional reputations are not solely built on our accomplishments.
They are based on how we show up every single day.
My best advice on this topic comes straight from my own playbook. I take great pride in honoring my commitments. In all aspects of my life, personal or professional, people know they can trust me with a promise. If I say I will get it done, I get it done.
If you want people to trust you, you will need to be a person who keeps her word.
No matter what your role. No matter what your industry. Do what you say you will.
This concept is easy to say, but difficult to master. In this episode, I will break down key strategies to help you keep your word.
There’s no time to waste, Real-World Feminists. You are building your professional reputation as we speak. Tune in and let’s get after it!
No matter how focused or productive we are, there’s one thing I know to be true.
Even badasses have bad days.
Days when plans go off the rails. Days when an offhand remark from a stranger feeds your worst insecurity. Days when you just wake up on the wrong side of the bed.
Bad days can turn into bad weeks or months. If we allow it.
Bad moods can turn into bad attitudes and feelings of bitterness or hopelessness. If we don’t do something to counteract it.
It’s darn near impossible to accomplish big goals and dreams when you are in a negative mindset.
That’s why it’s so important to find ways to combat negativity soon as it starts making an appearance in your brain.
Don’t stress out—I have good news.
I know from my own personal experience that it is possible to train your brain to be positive.
In this episode, I’ll share my personal top 3 hacks I regularly use to build a positive mindset.
We’ve got big things to accomplish, Real-World Feminists! Tune in and let’s get after it.
Our motivation is strong in January. We’re starting new habits and chipping away at our goals.
But, I know from my own experience that you can’t count on pure motivation to keep you on track all year.
I’ve tried it countless times—it doesn’t work. By springtime, my willpower and focus fade. Then all of my goal progress sputters and stalls. Next thing you know, that angry, negative voice in my head demands: What’s wrong with me? Why can’t I stay on track? Why do I suck at this?
Are you feeling me hard right now?
Don’t feel down on yourself.
I have some good news. I have found a way to crack the code and break the cycle!
You need a system to stay on track. It’s worked for me, and it will work for you, too.
It’s not elaborate and it doesn’t need to take a ton of time. But, there are some requirements. You must bring a positive attitude and a willingness to be honest with yourself.
If you’ve got those prerequisites down, I’ll bring you the process to get it done! In this episode, I’ll give you a goal-tracking system that you can start using right now.
Don’t waste another minute. Let’s start tracking our goals, Real-World Feminists! Tune in and let’s get after it.
We’re focused on our new goals and resolutions.
Doing the hard work to stay consistent and true to the vision of our future selves. On top of all of the other hectic things at work and home filling our calendars!
Simply put, we’re busy AF.
And then that request comes in. It slides into your inbox. It’s the email you were hoping to avoid.
It’s the dreaded 360 request for feedback on a co-worker.
Like we’re not busy enough, right?!
Sure, cranking out a feedback request for our favorite co-workers is no big deal.
But, what are we supposed to do when we get asked to provide feedback for someone that we are struggling with?
Or worse yet, do we really need to write that 360 review of OUR BOSS?!
Don’t worry, I got your back. We’re going to take on this uncomfortable topic, head-on.
In this episode, we’ll talk about why responding to these requests is important—not just for your co-workers, but for YOU. I’ll break down some practical advice so that you can respond to these requests with professionalism and grace.
Every work interaction is a chance to stand out as a mature leader. The 360 feedback request is no different.
Time to suck it up and face this together. Let’s get after it, Real-World Feminists!
It’s the New Year! In most of corporate America, this means annual performance review season has officially begun.
No matter how driven you are in your career, there’s a very good chance that you dread this season.
You are not alone in feeling this way.
Why do we feel this way? It’s supposed to be a good thing, right?
Well, there are plenty of sources behind this dread.
Part of the dread is grounded in a basic human feeling of ugh, you are forcing me to do this! We humans tend to not like being forced into doing anything.
Part of it stems from an uncomfortable suspicion of a company caring about the personal development of an employee. Yeah, we know that managers or leaders may care about our personal development—but a company? There’s part of us that doesn’t buy it.
And much of this feeling of dread is simply about time. We’re feeling: I’m busy kicking off the year, and you want me to take extra time to create goals in a template that’s not intuitive for something I inherently don’t trust in the first place. Come on!
I’m not going to go all Little Miss Sunshine on you and convince you why corporate goal-setting processes are the best thing ever. Truth is, most of these processes suck.
BUT—in this episode, I will explain to you why this goal-setting process is important to the company and why it’s critical for your career path at that company.
I can also give you insights and practical advice on how to work this process to your advantage. Once you understand the game, you can master it.
By the time we are done, you may not even dread the process anymore. Equipped with your new insight and tools, you may even start to look forward to it.
Let’s set you up for a successful year in your career. Tune in and let’s get after it.
When I reflect on the past decade, it’s clear to me that all of the wonderful things that I’ve accomplished or manifested into my life started with a small practice.
About 10 years ago, my best friend and I met up to dreamscape about the year ahead. We’d brought our notebooks to our favorite neighborhood bar and brainstormed things we wanted to make happen in the upcoming year. Some ideas were big dreams (like write a book) and others were small (like go to an amusement park together). Big and small, they all went on a master to-do list.
We began a tradition of getting together every year to reflect on what we were able to accomplish and capture our new dreams for the year ahead.
As we’ve evolved over the years, so has our planning process. But, one thing remains consistently true. Our goal planning sessions have sparked magic in our lives. We have accomplished things that seemed near impossible when the big ideas popped into our heads.
This magic is too good to keep to myself. In this episode, we will walk through a process to help you define clear goals for the year ahead. I’ll give you an approach that you can put into practice immediately.
Let’s start the decade strong, Real-World Feminists! Tune in and let’s get after it.
With the benefit of many years of hindsight, I can now see that there’s been one clear secret behind my professional success.
I’ll share the secret with you, by telling you the story of my career path. Listen in and learn the secret.
