Alycia Diggs-Chavis, is an energy healer, intuitive coach, and CEO of BlueViolet Energy Healing. She shares her journey from studying international business at Harvard to working in corporate leadership for over 20 years. After she experienced the issues of becoming an empty nester, she transitioned to entrepreneurship and working with people in a completely different way. Through self-discovery and working with a coach, Alicia found her new calling in energy healing and became a certified master energy healer. Alycia helps leaders reduce stress and find their core through custom energy work in corporate environments.

Corporate wellness is very important because as human beings we don’t leave our lives behind, but take it with us to work as well. That is why self-awareness, growth, and achieving the state of flow are crucial for all leaders and their success.

Women especially need to step outside their roles built for everyone else but themselves. Women just don't build the same type of relationships with themselves as with other people. That is why it is crucial to look inward and figure out who we really are, make ourselves centered, and walk with confidence. A need to take time to reconnect with ourselves is huge and results in peace, confidence in decision-making, and getting back to balance is mirroring directly to the business success.

Only when you're learning yourself - you're loving yourself, you're investing in yourself. When you are showing yourself to others - you're investing in others. Let’s heal ourselves and the whole world.

You must listen to this transformational, impactful, and thought-provoking episode with futurist and my new friend who I wish I could hang out with every single day, Latia Vaughan! Latia helps us to see that if you embrace who you are, and own your power, it will make the world turn!

Futurist, thought leader, strategist, and best-selling author, Latia Vaughan works with people and businesses, helping them evolve and own their power. She represents ~1% of African American Woman Futurists in North America, and her data-driven insight, and future foresight, have not only illuminated industries but have also ignited a transformative spark in individuals and organizations alike!

Latia left the corporate world to serve humanity in a more impactful way. She began coaching women and helping them build their businesses, as well as helping organizations with transformational consulting work. She emphasizes that evolution is not always pretty, but rather filled with messy parts and growth, as well as learning to collaborate together. She now leads a life dedicated to launching people and businesses into Evolution!

If it’s not a loss, it’s a lesson - let’s turn those lessons into even bigger wins!

Notes:
👩🏾‍💼 Latia started in corporate America, but now she helps people and businesses evolve. 3:59
🏫 The school system was built in the industrial age: think factories, you don't need to be creative, just comply. 8:24
👉🏽 The difference between marketing and branding. 11:45
🤯 Women are far behind in the business race: in the US, women couldn't own a business until 1988. 16:13
🫱🏻‍🫲🏾 Ways for collaboration: setting what the mutual intention is for us to come together. 20:17
💊 Latia's working with companies: the higher you go, there's less diversity. 24:07
🤓 Run your business, like a jungle, not a garden. 27:33
▶️ Setting the confines and the climate and then allowing people to live within that realm. 29:34
😇 We need our intuitive side when we are leading our businesses. 32:56
⚡ Latia is a futurist: she studies science, data, and politics to see what's coming next. 36:27
🧠 Older people have the mental fortitude necessary to lead. 40:04
💎 Unraveling who you are and owning your power is going to make the world turn. 42:13
🌺 The beauty is in the jungle: we can grow when we appreciate what each of us brings to this experience. 46:54

“Comedy is a serious business. A serious business with only one purpose — to make people laugh,” said W. C. Fields. Also, comedy has a tremendous effect on our lives. It improves our social life, boosts brain activity, reduces stress, improves physical health, and makes us more attractive. Enter our esteemed guest for this episode, Carole Montgomery!

With a long and varied career and over two dozen television credits to her name, Carole Montgomery is a respected veteran of the standup comedy scene nationwide.

Beyond television appearances, Carole has headlined clubs and colleges across the USA and starred in two prominent Las Vegas production shows, and captivated more than five million audience members during her decade as a Las Vegas luminary. She is the creative force behind and stars in three Showtime specials for Funny Women Of A Certain Age.

This episode will inspire you to be a pit bull for your goals and possibly get Carole to keynote at your event! If you don't produce events, like we do here at She Leads Media, you’ll for sure get the urge to enjoy some comedy asap. Enjoy!

Show notes:
👭 Carol is a respected veteran of stand-up comedy, and she talks about the misconceptions in women’s comedy circles. 02:41
🤒 Juggling work and illness: performing 13 weekly shows in Las Vegas. 04:09
🩵 Blame Carole’s comedian career on her father: in 1979, comedy didn’t seem like a legitimate job. 06:38
🎤 Navigating the comedy circuit: when you’re a new comic, it's tough to get to the stage. 08:52
🌟 Vegas stardom at any age: Carole’s ten-year reign and selling her show at 59. 14:34
✅ Persistence pays off: earning the nickname "Pitbull” from her mother-in-law and clinging onto opportunities, showcasing that refusing isn’t inherently negative. 18:50
👉 Always ask, be persistent, and at least you’ll get an answer. 20:50
🎓 Carole and Adrienne shared examples of rejection: we can’t walk around constantly feeling rejected, just move on with your life. 24:10
💕 Inclusive comedy: supporting amazing undiscovered women's talents in the stand-up scene. 29:04
❣️ Leaving a meaningful legacy: “If I left the world tomorrow, my son could say his mom did something really important” is Carole’s inspiration. 33:33
📢 We all live so much in the present and future that we forget what we’ve done in the past: Adrienne inspired Carole to do a TED Talk, and if you want her to give a speech at your event, contact her! 38:16

It is important to give ourselves credit for what we have accomplished.

Hayley Foster, Founder & CFO of Foster Inc., began her career in advertising before the Internet became popular. Moving onto digital advertising, Hayley partnered with a friend to start her first business, a promotional marketing company with offices in New York, LA, and China. Hayley refers to her time building and running her business as attending the school of hard knocks for entrepreneurs, acknowledging the lessons she learned and what she had to offer to other women.

Haley's resilience and ability to pivot through many challenges in work and private life, but also honoring her desires, spurred her personal evolution. Crucial moments allowed her to find her passion. Hayley shares tips on reading books, building awareness, thinking about our intentions, and guiding women entrepreneurs through fast-changing circumstances.

Hayley believes that it is vital to engage and connect with people, and her Foster Women community is a specially vetted space for women to get stronger and better in business and life without feeling like we always need to control everything.

The way to experience life fully is only possible if we don’t control it constantly.

The She Leads Podcast: Real Conversations with Women Entrepreneurs - A Year-Long Global Voyage of Self Realization, with Yuri Chu Su

A Year-Long Global Voyage of Self Realization, with Yuri Chu Su

The She Leads Podcast: Real Conversations with Women Entrepreneurs

play

01/05/24 • 58 min

We all yearn to run away from everyday life sometimes, and now, some people are actually doing it! Living the digital nomad life offers so much experience, broadness, and self-reflection.

In this illuminating episode, Yuri Chu Su unveils the transformative power of a 20-month trip through 23 countries, 90 different beds, and 80 flights – a voyage that led her to a reflective pause in Argentina.

Yuri shares insightful life lessons gleaned from her experiences traveling across continents, as well as her deeper inner journey.

Choosing destinations is not as significant as seizing the chance to engage in intense self-work, make new friends, experience other cultures, and look for life-changing experiences that mold the core of who you are.

The act of planning life journeys proves to be profoundly beneficial and inspirational. What does your upcoming year entail? It need not solely involve travel. Consider embarking on a journey for 2024 that resonates with your aspirations!

Notes:
🎒 Being on a 20-month-long journey around the world: life has its own plan for you, and it might not coincide with what you have in mind. 06:41
😃 The biggest push for Yuri to live a nomad life was Remote Year’s program named “Yuri” - her own name: it was a gut decision to commit to a year-long journey. 08:11
💚 Nomad life shows you your resilience and adaptability, and it helps you find your boundaries and embrace JOMO (the joy of missing out): Adrienne noticed Yuri opened up what was already in her and gained confidence during the travel. 12:54
💟 Real travelers immerse themselves in the new culture with curiosity and open minds. 18:12
⚠️ Triggers that appear on the journey: Yuri had issues with jealousy and self-compassion and had to work on that. 20:49
💭 All of us are programmed in a very specific way, and our reptile brain tends to take over to protect us from pain: what we focus on grows, so choose helpful thoughts. 23:49
🛣️ Travel can be such a fast track to healing, looking at all your shit, and facing your demons: it’s almost like a mirror that reflects back to you. 27:03
🇨🇴 Yuri’s favorite country was Colombia: she shared her emotional impressions. 29:00
🩵 You can’t control some things when traveling: be thankful for the highest outcome that has already happened because everything happens for a reason. 32:42
🤗 Being human is hard: we need the luxury of slowing down and feeling good. 35:33
👫 Yuri found a best friend and a great group of friends from the program: you’re not going to vibe with everybody you meet, and that’s totally okay. 39:40
✅ Navigating hard emotions is part of life that’s more intense when traveling. 47:31
🔬 A 20-month nomad travel was like putting herself in a microscope for Yuri. 51:34
❣️ The best things in life come outside your comfort zone. 54:42
🌸 You will be your longest relationship: be kind and love yourself first. 56:42

01/19/24 • 38 min

Now is the time to destigmatize mental health!

Olivia Verhulst, a licensed psychotherapist, clinical supervisor, wellness consultant, adjunct professor at NYU, and media contributor at Forbes Health Advisor delves into ways we can set ourselves up for mental wellness and success.

Leading with vulnerability and destigmatizing mental health as entrepreneurs and accomplished women are keys to successfully improving our lives as we head into 2024. As we do so, we begin conversations that people want to hear, helping ourselves and others no longer suffer in silence. Allowing ourselves to be aligned with our values and becoming aware of what drives us as well as permitting our identities to evolve will allow us to become who we are meant to be.

The outcome we are striving towards in 2024 is lasting change, improving our lives drastically!

💥 “If we don’t discuss mental health, the less inclined others will be to continue to suffer in silence.” 02:06
🌞 Let’s set ourselves for mental wellness and success in 2024. 03:29
⚡ Leading with vulnerability is the key: now is the time to destigmatize mental health. 04:55
🤩 Be aware of what drives you: aligning with our values is crucial. 07:15
🤓 Olivia’s secret formula: being herself all the time and speaking her language. 10:09
👩‍💼 Leading with our humaneness: Olivia’s visceral experience at She Leads Conference. 12:34
💎 I can be me and be successful: relief and hope that there is not just one way of doing things. 14:55
👧 Olivia always wanted to be a therapist: being a playground psychologist from second grade began her path to success. 17:35
😇 Permitting ourselves to allow our identities to evolve: we are all growing and changing with the years. 22:01
📌 Difficulty transitioning from one chapter to the next: identify your needs in the current season in life. 28:02
🤝 Corporate vs entrepreneurship: certainty and unchartered territories. 30:15
🤩 Trusting our resilience, adaptability, and our ability to learn: different ways to say ‘I don’t know’. 32:53

The She Leads Podcast: Real Conversations with Women Entrepreneurs

play

11/10/23 • 39 min

Community is the cornerstone of empowerment. It’s where connections flourish and transformation takes root.

Deb Schell, a global entrepreneur with over 60 businesses under her guidance, shares invaluable insights on online community building. From discovery to strategy and implementation, she simplifies user and backend experiences. In this enlightening episode, she offers her expert hacks from her book “The Creation to Community Builder”. Communities are a big part of our lives, but often lack intentional engagement. Maintaining relationships can be tough even in private life, and social media are more distractions than help. Online communities are great for building consistency, habits, and support for a business. Do you see yourself as a Community Builder?

If you are intrigued by community building and want to dive deeper into this topic, connect with Deb for an insightful conversation.

Notes:
⭐ Deb assisted over 60 entrepreneurs in building and growing their online communities through podcasting and consulting. 01:35
✅ Community builders must place a high priority on establishing psychological safety and purposeful connections among members in order to cultivate meaningful relationships. 09:32
🤝 Having a breakout room to mingle with a few people is a great way to make people feel at ease: retreats are also fantastic for online communities. 12:22
❣️ Community doesn’t solve every problem: to build a community, you have to work on connections rather than content and comprehend real people, not just their personas. 19:19
👉 Community is about consistency and habits: we can continue to forge deeper relationships in this way instead of expanding widely, as we do on social media. 25:16
🔵 The goal of the community is to connect people around a particular topic and solve a specific problem: priority is the value, not content frequency. 27:16
💵 Community is also a beneficial addition to the business: hiring community managers and making investments in communities. 30:41
❗ The frameworks that worked for six and seven-figure people don’t work for everybody: technology doesn’t matter if you don’t have people. 36:35
💌 Dab is open to chat: for any questions, email her. 38:48
