    What if your inner dragon was the key to your greatness?

    Each one of us harbors a mighty, mythical dragon within—the embodiment of our deepest fears, guilt, anger, shame, and anxiety. It's the part of us that society often tells us to defeat, eliminate, or conquer. But what if I told you there's a different, more empowering path?

    Send us Fan Mail

    It’s a rags-to-riches story.

    But no—this isn’t your fairytale or your regular fiction story where the underdog wins. This time, it’s a real story. A real story of hard work, grit, resilience, and not giving up.

    Dale Gillham’s journey was never an easy one. He grew up in a poor family. But at an early age, he realized—just like what his mother has always instilled in him—that ‘poor’ is just a mindset. And it lies in his choice to change his mindset and cultivate a wealthy life for himself, his family, and the people whose lives he’s touched, now as a wealth analyst. And so from a small town in Australia, he began his journey by moving to a bigger city, until slowly, he made a name for himself and conquered the world in his own way.

    In this episode, Dale will teach us how he has built his wealth. It’s all thanks to his mom’s never-give-up mindset, listening to his mentors, and cultivating wealth from within.

    Key Points From This Episode:

    • From nothing to everything: How Dale Gillham built his wealth story
    • From failing spelling and language tests to becoming a two-time bestselling author
    • Why listening is an important skill to cultivate success

  • Episode 30: How Self-Awareness is the Key to Self-Empowerment with Michelle Pfile

    Send us Fan Mail

    In a world where societal pressure and external influences can sway us from our true path, it's unfortunately common to lose sight of who we truly are and what matters to us.
     
    Self-awareness serves as a path towards self-empowerment. It acts as a valuable tool that enables us to distinguish between what people expect of us and what is true for us. Through this, we learn the wisdom and gain perspectives necessary to make healthy choices and align our actions with our values. It empowers us to take full responsibility for our own growth and well-being which allows us to navigate life's journey with authenticity and purpose.

    In this episode, we are joined by Michelle Pfile, a health, wellness, and business mentor, and podcast host who helps women create positive changes by elevating them physically, mentally, spiritually, and financially. She shares with us how self-awareness serves as the ultimate key to self-empowerment, and the significance of taking the time to slow down, listen to our inner wisdom, and get clear on what holds true importance in our lives.

    Michelle encourages us to embrace life's transitions, such as perimenopause, with grace and resilience, and to make mindful and healthy choices for our well-being.

    What are you waiting for? Listen to Episode 30 NOW!

    Key Points From This Episode:

    • Do not let others tell us how we should live our lives
    • Embracing transitions such as perimenopause as a positive new life stage
    • Women wear multiple hats — it’s important to take a moment to slow down, think, and focus on self-care
    • Listening to our inner wisdom tells us what our next step should be based on what our body needs at the moment

    About Michelle Pfile:

    Michelle Pfile is a health, wellness, and business mentor and also a podcast host who helps women create positive changes in their life by elevating them physically, mentally, spiritually and financially. After struggling with PCOS diagnosis for much of her life, she made drastic changes to improve her lifestyle that helped to completely transform her health, mind, and body. Speaking on topics such as holistic health, intermittent fasting, mindset shifts, network marketing and grief, Michelle has a plethora of expertise and speaks about it in a way that just makes sense.

  • Episode 29: Your Confidence is EVERYTHING You Need with Therese Gopaul-Robinson

    Send us Fan Mail

    Confidence is not about being perfect or having all the answers. It is about embracing our strengths, acknowledging our worth, and ultimately striving to be a better version of ourselves while continuously working towards self-improvement.

    It is important to bear in mind that confidence is not about arrogance or self-centeredness. It is about recognizing your worth, embracing your unique qualities, and believing in yourself with humility and grace. Genuine confidence comes from a place of self-acceptance and self-love — acknowledging both your strengths and areas for growth.

    In this episode, we are joined by Therese Gopaul-Robinson, a keynote speaker and facilitator who helps staffing companies improve back-office productivity by streamlining processes, creating robust internal training programs, and focusing on employee well-being and experience. She also provides on-demand training & support to healthcare leaders as they tackle complicated and sticky situations.

    Therese shares how confidence has been the driving force behind her success and personal growth. She also shares practical strategies, mindset shifts, and empowering practices that have helped her harness the full potential of her confidence.

    Celebrate your achievements, no matter how small, and learn from setbacks and failures, viewing them as opportunities for growth rather than reasons to doubt yourself.

    What are you waiting for? Listen to this episode now!

    Key Points From This Episode:

    • The struggles of having an imposter syndrome
    • Business owners shouldn't do everything themselves. Instead, they should find the right people with the right skills to help them.
    • Focusing on the things you're great at rather than dwelling on your weaknesses and shortcomings 

    About Therese Gopaul-Robinson:

    Therese Gopaul-Robinson is a keynote speaker and facilitator. She has a Master of Public Health, specializing in Health Promotion and Disease Prevention from Florida International University. She has 20+ years of experience serving in different roles in hospitals and healthcare staffing organizations.

    She believed she could.

    And so she did!

    That’s Allison Walsh’s mantra in life. And that belief never failed to open opportunities for her.

    Allison’s origin story started when she was 18—she started a nonprofit organization that was able to help thousands of people. From then on, she never stopped seizing opportunities not only for herself but also for others, allowing them to recognize their potential and to fully optimize it.

    Allison is also a firm believer that you don’t need to wait for one season of your life to end to go get your dreams—that is, you don’t need to retire or wait toward the end of your career before you jump and pursue your passion. It’s all about getting that clarity and desire to meet at the right time.

    And so when desire and clarity finally intersected in Allison’s life, she jumped in and took on another role up her shoulders—being a writer.

    In her book, She Believed She Could: Show Up, Shine Bright, and Achieve Abundant Success, Allison memorializes her 20+ years of experience and accumulated knowledge from being an expert business consultant, international speaker and podcaster, and influential leader.

    Tune in to this episode to know how “believing that she could” really allowed Allison to conquer the things that she really wanted and are in alignment with her core, true self.

    Key Points From This Episode:

    • Allison Walsh’s humble beginning: Starting a nonprofit at 18
    • The quest for knowledge for professional development as her driving force to write a book
    • What happens when desire meets clarity
    • The importance of setting goals for yourself
    • Allison’s book: She Believed She Could: Show Up, Shine Bright, and Achieve Abundant Success
    • Book giveaway

    About Allison Walsh:

    Allison Walsh, JD, is an expert business consultant, founder, bestselling author, international speaker, influential leader, and certified positive psychology coach. By age 30, Allison became the Vice President of a company destined for unicorn status which she helped build from the ground up.

    Allison has not only been recognized for her business accomplishments, highlighted in publications like Forbes and the Orlando Business Journal, but she’s also won multiple awards for her philanthropy raising over $2 Million for eating disorders prevention and awareness, and serves on numerous nonprofit boards. She’s the host of the She Believed She Could podcast, and the creator of emPOWERing coaching programs helping women develop tenacity and self-assurance. As a business development, marketing, and personal branding expert, as well as a former Miss Florida, Allison is on a mission to help influential, high-stakes leaders build their confidence, scale their businesses, and elevate their personal brands.

  • Episode 27: Find Your Voice, Become a Better Storyteller, and Get Published with Award-Winning Journalist, Estelle S. Erasmus

    Send us Fan Mail

    Why do we write?

    This question has been asked to many different people in many different times and circumstances. It’s both an easy and a difficult question, with many variations to its answer.

    It is natural for people to tell stories. We do this every day, even without us noticing it. Like when you tell a workmate your interesting experience while commuting to work, or at dinner when you share with your family how your day went.

    We all love to tell stories. Others just communicate it in a very special way—writing. And in that way, they’re somehow immortalizing their stories and making their life’s legacy.

    When Estelle Erasmus left her job as a journalist to start her family, she never thought she could still go back. It was as if motherhood and being a writer were two totally different things impossible for someone to do at the same time.

    But writing is a natural response to the great need for storytelling and communicating. After discovering how blogging works, mustering her courage to write again, and finding her voice, Estelle has slowly claimed her spotlight back in the world of writing with her articles published in the New York Times and Washington Post that have gone viral globally and her book, ‘Writing That Gets Noticed: Find Your Voice, Become a Better Storyteller, Get Published.’

    In this episode, Estelle narrates her own writing journey and tells us how she shares the writing spotlight with her students, readers, and listeners, allowing them to find their own voice through writing.

    Thoughts to Empower 

    • “I don't think there's any shame in ambition.” - Estelle Erasmus
    • “You can't identify by a title. You are the sum total of your skillsets.” - Estelle Erasmus
    • “You never know when your bad luck is your good luck.” - Estelle Erasmus

    Key Points From This Episode:

    • From a journalist to a mother: What prompted Estelle to write
    • How transformative motherhood is
    • Why you shouldn’t be ashamed of your ambition
    • Getting back to the writing spotlight but not knowing how to
    • How ‘Listen to Your Mother’ allowed her to bring her voice back

    About Estelle Erasmus:

    Estelle Erasmus is a professor of writing at New York University, the host of the Freelance Writing Direct podcast, and former “All About the Pitch” columnist for Writer’s Digest. She has written about a variety of subjects (health, beauty, fitness, publishing, business, travel) for numerous publications. Her articles for the New York Times and Washington Post have gone globally viral (with more than 500 comments on her NYT piece, “How to Bullyproof Your Child”). She has appeared on Good Morning America and has had her articles discussed on The View. She has also taught, coached, and mentored many writers who have gone on to be widely published. She is an American Society of Journalists and Authors award winner and was a cast member in the inaugural New York City production of the Listen to Your Mother storytelling show.

    Send us Fan Mail

    Have you ever been in such a low point in life that you thought it’s almost impossible to get back up?

    A heartache. A loss. Breaking up of an important relationship.

    Life isn’t always gonna promise happiness, success, fulfillment, and all the lavish things we’d wish to have. There’s always gonna be a struggle. But that doesn’t mean they only bring ugliness. Sometimes, they’re catalysts for change too.

    At least, that’s the discovery of our guest, Master Life Coach and author Nancy Levin, when she experienced her life’s biggest crisis. It was painful and grueling, but it’s a life-changer. It made her commit into a deep self-introspection and reconnect with her lost self, slowly allowing her to build and regain her broken pieces.

    That reclaiming of the bits and pieces of herself made her understand her true gift: the skill of coaching and bringing back the POWER to her clients.

    Personally, Nancy’s program has made me discover the POWER that allowed me to become a better leader, understanding people’s triggers, their stories, and how these impact their decision-making.

    Ready to reclaim your POWER and tap on your own inner wisdom?
