  • I Failed Out Of College - The Power of BOUNCING BACK after FAILURE

    The cat is out of the bag - I am not perfect, have not had success in a straight line, and I fail. A LOT. The biggest failure in my life (so far) is failing out of college after 2 years. In that moment, I was DEVASTATED, ASHAMED, and DEPRESSED. It was really hard to see any positives in that situation.

    However time heals a lot of wounds, and as I persevered I came to understand WHY I failed, what LESSONS it taught me, and HOW I could become a better person and leader because of my failures.

    No one is perfect, and we all fail at times. It is how we BOUNCE BACK that defines who we are. In this episode, I tell the story of how I failed out of college, and what lessons that experience has taught me.

  • What are you doing TODAY to achieve your DREAMS

    We are a few weeks into 2022. This is usually the week when people quit on their "resolutions".  I'm not a fan of resolutions. I'm a fan of GOALS. Today we talk about how to turn DREAMS into GOALS, which then drive our ACTIONS.

  • A Vulnerable Episode Where I Talk About Assault

    TRIGGER WARNING - Assault, Sexual Assault, Harassment

    I do not want ANYONE to think they are alone if they went through what I went through. I was physically touched inappropriately at work. 

    This episode is what I wish I would have done, instead of what I ended up doing. If I can help even ONE person get help if they are being harassed or assaulted at work, then this was completely worth it.

  • [JOB SKILL] How To NOT Put People To Sleep When Giving a Presentation

    We've all been in that conference room. The poor presenter reading a slide word for word. Full paragraphs of words on the screen. Me, struggling to stay awake and understand the point.

    DON'T be that person! In this episode, I talk about the RIGHT way to give a presentation. I also discuss how to MENTOR someone who is about to present to executives.  Say NO to death by Power Point.

  • [INTERVIEW] Joni Wickham - The Thin Line Between Cupcake and Bitch

    I had the absolute PRIVILEGE to interview Joni Wickham. Joni is the former Chief of Staff to the Mayor of Kansas City, MO, and the author of the FANTASTIC book titled The Thin Line Between Cupcake and Bitch.

    As the title hints, Joni's book talks a lot about the need for women to be likeable, but not so likeable to be viewed as a pushover. In this episode, I can barely contain my excitement speaking with this strong, smart, hilarious woman whose book is an EXCELLENT jumping off point for many topics. Her blend of stories and life lessons make this an easy read, with tons of nuggets of advice that I have taken to grow in my own leadership talents.
