Ultra You - Where self-made millionaire women redefine success

Today, and perhaps for the next few weeks, I’m changing the format of the podcast to bring you some of my thoughts and plans about where Ultra You is going from here.

When I launched Ultra You, I had a specific audience in mind – an audience of compassionate, high-achieving women who want to redefine their success. I’ve had a great year on the podcast, with 55 episodes broadcast to date. I’ve brought you experts on topics as varied as the detrimental effects of sleep deprivation, how to manage a merger for your entrepreneurial business, and what “giving back” philanthropically can mean to you in terms of lifestyle, legacy, and leading by example.

Now, I need to turn my attention to seeking funding for my non-profit organization, the Wells International Foundation (WIF), with the intent to fully implement projects in all six of our strategic focus areas. One of these areas is an exclusive community for you as a member of the specific audience that I describe above. Tune in to learn more about this group and see whether you want to become a part of it!

Pat Roque, also known as The Business Boomer, loves teaching (in person and online) to empower others in her role as their executive business coach, mentor, marketing consultant, corporate trainer or university instructor. Her award-winning (yet unorthodox) career reflects her passion for connecting like-minded people who enjoy good health and growing their business together.

In this final segment of our three-part interview, Pat talks about how golf transformed her professional and personal life and shares why she considers it to be the perfect tool for advancing your business.

Sylvie di Giusto is an image consultant who specializes in remaking the image of those aspiring to attain leadership positions in the corporate world. In this part of her Ultra You interview, she discusses the “ABCDs” of image – appearance, behavior, communication, and digital footprint. She makes the case that despite what you may wish to believe, the way others perceive these elements about you will almost immediately determine whether you get the position you desire.

Jane Hirt is a former managing editor and vice president at the Chicago Tribune who left her position to take a 13-month sabbatical. In Part 2 of this interview, Jane talks about the philanthropic activities she engaged in during her break and discusses what she sees for herself as she plans to return to the work force.

Get inspired by CPA Alecia Caine’s story of how she reconciled her creativity with the world of accounting that her father urged her to pursue as a career and created two unique entrepreneurial businesses! In Part 1 of this interview, learn how Alecia provides traditional financial planning and tax services for high net worth women AND helps them identify their money myths and move past them so they can focus on building the life they love.
