If you are (or aspire to be!) a woman on a mission, this is the podcast for you – especially if you’re feeling stuck or held back by unhelpful thinking. There are so many things that can stop us from stepping into the unknown, fulfilling our calling or reaching our full potential, and they nearly all begin with one thing. Our thoughts! Those pesky, slippery but convincing thoughts that I hear all the time from clients, like but I’m just little old me and who am I to do that? Join me, Sue Revell, personal leadership coach and your host for these beautifully human conversations with world changing women. Women who have learned how to navigate their own resistance so that they can be in flow and make the world a better place. I’ll be alternating guest episodes, where I talk to the woman behind the mission, with shorter and reflective pods where I look back on the interview to make sure that you and I, together, squeeze out every drop of learning. Join me!

#053 Let It Go! with Alisoun Mackenzie

Women on a Mission with Sue Revell

07/22/22 • 50 min

Finding who we really are is often described as a journey and for Alisoun Mackenzie the voyage of discovery quite literally began when she was backpacking around the world, yet not in the way you might expect.

Alisoun is on a mission to help women enjoy a happier, more meaningful life that lights up their heart and makes a difference in a way that they are proud of. Her own personal search for meaning started with getting off a train.

The train of expectation.

Understanding, accepting and owning her mission has repeatedly required Alisoun to let go of expectation: both her own expectations of herself and the expectations of others. In this inspirational yet intimate conversation, meaningful life guide, Alisoun Mackenzie, describes how letting go and surrendering to the process of life has inspired and created incredible opportunities to serve, undertaking humanitarian work with young genocide survivors in Rwanda, and leading teams of women who sponsor earthquake-resistant schools made of recycled plastic in Asia.

Having explored her own quest for meaning, Alisoun now helps other women to live a more meaningful life that leaves a legacy.

This episode is for anyone who is seeking more meaning in life and wants to learn more about living a life that is aligned to their personal truth.

MORE ABOUT MY GUEST: ALISOUN MACKENZIE

Women on a Mission with Sue Revell

04/07/23 • 51 min

Taking on the beauty industry is no mean feat.

MORE ABOUT MY GUEST: DARA GOLDBERG (FULL BIO ON PODPAGE) Dara Goldberg is a writer, speaker, pro age advocate, and the Founder of the Endless Beauty Collective, a national initiative designed to get the beauty industry to stop telling women their beauty declines with age and spending millions to try to avoid aging is the only answer.

#054 Looking back on "Let It Go!" with Alisoun Mackenzie

Women on a Mission with Sue Revell

07/29/22 • 14 min

If you could let go of one expectation, right now, what would it be? Would it be an expectation of yourself, or of other people? Or maybe you would let go of something you know others expect of you? Imagine the difference that freedom, that you would create, would make in your mission. For Alisoun Mackenzie, that moment came when she got off the train of expectation and began to explore who she really was. Looking back on our conversation, I begin by reflecting on the personal impact of discovering a deeply personal shared experience, and how I resisted the temptation to edit out how it made me feel! I then look at what we can learn from Alisoun’s story of letting go and how, when we let go of everything we think we know, we learn more than we ever thought possible about who we really are. If you’re ready to let go and surrender to the process of life, this week’s Insights episode is for you.

Episode 29: Being Free To Be Me with Karen Laos

Women on a Mission with Sue Revell

02/17/22 • 46 min

Have you ever felt like there’s something more ahead for you but the path to get there just isn’t clear? It’s a strange kind of stuckness when you have the sense that you are meant to do more and be more but you don’t yet know what ‘more’ might be.

Karen Laos felt like a racehorse behind the gates, all fired up and ready to go but the gates just weren’t open. The more that things expanded around her, the more constricted she felt in the place where she worked. It took almost two years for her to find her ‘more’.

And then the global pandemic struck.

Covid-19. What a time to be free!

Karen shares how she found her way to freedom so that she could answer her calling and make an even bigger impact in the world. Having escaped the prison of self-doubt and the paralysing fear of judgement that held her there, she now wants to help ten million women to achieve the same freedom. A communications expert by profession, Karen is on a mission to empower women to find their voice, overcome self doubt and speak with confidence.

ABOUT MY GUEST: KAREN LAOS

Based in San Francisco, Karen Laos is a former corporate leader turned professional speaker specializing in communication. She is fiercely committed to equipping women in business to speak with clarity and stand out with unshakable confidence.

Over her 20+ year career, she has gained rave reviews from clients such as NASA, Facebook, Google, Netflix, Sephora, AT&T, Levi’s and United Healthcare.

She got her start in human resources at Gap Inc and then found her passion for corporate training at Decker Communications, where she led a team of facilitators and traveled the globe consulting professionals on their communication skills. After 14 years, she left Decker to pursue her entrepreneurial dream (and hasn’t looked back!).

Her mission is to eradicate self-doubt so women can stop holding back and start taking their seat at the table. One of the ways she does this is through her podcast: Ignite Your Confidence with Karen Laos.

Karen can be contacted via her website www.karenlaos.com and on a variety of Social Media/Audio platforms, including:

BONUS EPISODE: Your Mission Matters with Sue Revell

Women on a Mission with Sue Revell

12/29/21 • 20 min

Your mission demands your boldest, bravest, most brilliant self. How ready are you? Whether you see it as a mission, or a calling, or simply that thing you “can’t NOT do”, right now it requires you to think, dream and play your biggest game.

Your Mission Matters is my free guide to help you self-evaluate where you are and where you want to be in your mission. More importantly, it helps you to plan how you’re going to get there so that you can boldly and bravely lead the change you want to make, in your career, your profession, your business or in the wider world.

It’s time to STOP thinking, dreaming and playing small. Listen to this episode (and/or download the written version of Your Mission Matters) and let me take you through some key questions to explore how to move your mission forward and how to become the person you need to be to deliver your mission.

It’s up to you whether you undertake the review as a new year evaluation and/or goal setting exercise or whether you work through it at regular points throughout the year to check in on your progress. The process works equally well for either purpose.

Download your free copy of the Your Mission Matters guide HERE. You can either complete the template I've created or use the questions as prompts for your own journal. In the downloadable version, you will find an extra chapter on how to create detailed outcomes to maximise your success in 2022 and a special offer for January!

Episode 24: Looking back on I’m Not Done! with Dr Maggie Landes MD (Insights)

Women on a Mission with Sue Revell

01/14/22 • 15 min

Have you ever had a moment where you realised that you’re not ‘done’? Where you felt deeply aware that what you are doing just isn’t enough and that there is something else you are here to achieve?

That you have more to do and more to BE?

There’s something really powerful about realising it’s time to think, dream and BE bigger in your mission. Time to show up differently. Time to stop waiting for someone or something else to come along and instead to step into the calling that you are uniquely placed to answer.

In my solo episode, we look back at my conversation with Dr Maggie Landes who, following treatment for cancer, stepped out of her comfort zone to answer her calling. She knew she had found her mission, and in sharing her story she teaches us all how we can learn to trust our dreams more than our fears.

If you’re ready to be more, but you’re wondering where to start, take a listen.

ABOUT YOUR HOST: SUE REVELL

Sue is on a mission to help women create a legacy that truly makes a difference. With over 30 years coaching and leadership experience, Sue understands the fear of not fulfilling the mission you feel called to, and loves nothing more than disrupting unhelpful thinking so you can shift your focus from what you need to do, to who you need to BE to change the world.

Episode 38: Looking back on "If Not Now, When?" with Karen Haller

Women on a Mission with Sue Revell

04/15/22 • 18 min

Have you ever wanted to give up? To throw in the towel? To concede defeat? Have you ever been so tired of trying to explain yourself and the change you want to make, that you just want to walk away and leave it to someone else? There are always moments in leading change where giving up feels easier than going on. Moments where the resistance is real and you just want to say, I’m done. In this week’s episode we look back at my conversation with Karen Haller, global expert in behavioural design and colour psychology. As we look back at how Karen persisted for 8 years, against all advice to throw in the towel, we also learn how she turned around her absolute terror of speaking in public to become an international keynote speaker. There are seven powerful lessons we can learn from Karen’s story, to help us keep going too. If you’re ready to walk the road less travelled and build your resilience, hone your determination and deepen your commitment to your calling, take a listen now.
