October 17, 2023 Episode 57: Building the Life You Can’t Wait to Wake Up For Requires Bold Moves, with Erin Gerner / Founder, Powerhouse Lawyers
Building a life you can’t wait to wake up for…well, it’s a hard concept for many of us to fully embrace. It’s like…we want it (we want it bad!), but we don’t know how to get it and have it. It can sometimes feel unobtainable, right?
I’ll raise my hand on that one!
In today’s episode, I’m talking with Erin Gerner, Founder of Powerhouse Lawyers (and the podcast too!), a community empowering women in law through community and connection.

If you’re a high achiever and have struggled with balance, you are not alone. Erin and I dive deep into what’s holding us back from living life to the fullest RIGHT NOW…

…and my friend, this is about boundary setting and communicating your needs to everyone around you. This episode is packed full of great life advice we all need.

Erin Gerner is a former practicing lawyer turned life coach for women in the law. Her objective is to help women combat overwhelm, align their careers with their values and priorities, and form community and connection with other law-minded women to scale their businesses and enrich their lives.

Erin has tried to live up to an impossible level of perfection and eventually realized she felt defeated, taken advantage of, unsupported, and expendable. After making the decision to walk away from the practice of law, she has spent the last ten years educating herself on the secret of success. She strives to help all women in the law achieve their goals and build a life they can't wait to wake up for.

She also hosts the life-changing Powerhouse Lawyers Retreat- an in-person event to connect with law-minded women.

September 26, 2023 Episode 54: How To Look Like You Own The Place, With Guest Elisa Ellis Of Turnkey Style
When it comes to how we show up online or in the face-to-face world, what we wear…it matters. Since 70-90% of communication is non-verbal, your clients and colleagues are making decisions about whether or not they will take your advice…listen to your recommendations…all the things…based on how you present yourself.
In today’s episode, I talk with wardrobe stylist, Elisa Ellis of Turnkey Style, and she gives so many great tips on what you can do to show up with confidence and authority as well as how you can get more done - including seal more deals - based on how you show up.

For close to a decade, Elisa has been transforming closets and the lives of her clients in the US and abroad. Whether you are a business owner, executive, in corporate, management, or an entrepreneur, Elisa believes that how you show up matters and she is passionate about sharing how to 'Up Your Style Game' so you are more productive, are memorable, confident, and attract more success.

Elisa also works with businesses to help them guide and educate their teams about the power of professional presence, how an authentic personal image is linked to their success, and gives tips on how to present themselves in ways that help them reach their highest potential.

I work with a lot of executives who work for big companies (and smaller ones too), and one thing that comes up often is not understanding how to build your personal brand if you get a paycheck from a company you don’t own.

September 05, 2023 Episode 51: What Your Social Media REALLY Says About You with special guest, Jillian Murphy
When it comes to sales, I KNOW you likely have a used car salesman as the sales avatar, right?! Here’s the thing. Sales should NOT feel spammy and awful…it should be a natural process. In today’s episode, I talk with the Sales Queen herself, Jillian Murphy, about how you develop content online that organically leads to sales.
In other words, don’t you want to have people asking how to work with you versus having to hard sell people? I know you’re saying yes to this!

Jillian Murphy is a highly sought after sales and business mentor who has mastered the art of sales and scaling not only her own business, but has helped hundreds of other online business owners as well.

With over 20 years of business experience in sales/marketing and growing multiple businesses of her own, she has now made it her mission to help online business owners gain REAL results in sales and messaging. Sales is truly the oxygen of your business and the most important skill any business owner can acquire.

She has been able to grow her own business from 0 to 6 figures in 1 year; hit her first 6 figure month in 18 months and just under a half million by year 2. All without any fancy systems, ads, or even a website. It was all done with the art of communication and the art of sales!

August 29, 2023 Episode 50: How to Work a Room & Network Like a Pro, with special guest Sarah Gemmell
Networking can either be your jam or something you really try to avoid for a variety of reasons. If you’re like a lot of the clients I work with, you likely haven’t been taught HOW to strategically network.
Networking isn’t just showing up at an event without a plan. In fact, you can make a bigger bang for your buck and it won’t be as scary if you follow some simple networking “rules.”

In today’s episode, I have a fabulous interview with Networking Expert, Sarah Gemmell. She shares her best tips and tricks to make networking easy and incredibly impactful.

Sarah helps business owners and sales teams to map out and implement a more profitable networking strategy to increase their reach and their impact through consistent, high quality referrals and collaborations. In addition to consulting, Sarah also hosts virtual networking meetings for women in business every week and she hosts the fastest growing in person meet up for women in business in Gainesville, Georgia.

August 22, 2023 Episode 49: How Confidence in Your Communication = Cash in the Bank with special guest, Nancy Medoff
When it comes to confidence in our conversations and how we communicate with others, there’s a way to effectively do this with kindness yet setting boundaries too.This also includes understanding how to infuse warmth (i.e., in your words and nonverbal signals) no matter if you’re negotiating a big business deal or daily conversations with your colleagues and clients.
In today’s episode, I am talking with Nancy Medoff, author of #1 best selling book, Unmute Yourself, and sales and leadership coach. Nancy shares her wisdom about how to be persuasive and approachable…and how (as women) positioning yourself in conversations like “one of the guys” NEVER works.

After close to three decades of walking the talk in corporate sales leadership, Nancy Medoff ditched her VP global sales job after being spoken over one too many times in meetings. She DID THE THING and followed her passion for empowering women to claim their seat at the table - then build a bigger table.

“The Confidence Catalyst”, Nancy is a global keynote speaker who is recognized as an authority on women and confidence and she won’t stop until women everywhere step into their strengths, debunk Imposter Syndrome, know their worth, and show up like they own the room.

Her best-selling communication playbook, Unmute Yourself and Speak Up to Stand Out was listed in Forbes before being published and debuted at #1 on Amazon - twice. Her top 25% podcast, Unmute Yourself – the Podcast is a call to action for women everywhere to speak up, step into who they are meant to be and thrive at work.
