Looks Like Work

Close your eyes for a second and imagine what authority sounds like to you. Did it sound anything like your own voice? Casey Erin Clark is a professional actress who, after 18 months on tour with Les Miserables, read the book Half the Sky and got very fired up about issues facing women in the world today. She co-founded Vital Voice Training where she lives out her bio "Loud girl learns to amplify others." 

Casey's also one of my favorite people to have meaningful conversations with. In this one, we talk about SO MANY topics, including: accessing your true voice (and not trying to change it to fit!), code switching, falling in love with your many focus areas and learning to live with the fact that your big childhood dream isn’t your only dream anymore, working with partners who have different work styles (and brains), understanding that you deserve ease, pleasure and comfort – and that they hold no less value than perfection.

One of my first memories of Yali Harari - CEO and Co-Founder of Innovesta, former investor and serial entrepreneur - is her giving me a hug when someone hurt my feelings. I immediately knew that her brand of leadership is one I want to follow. 

In this conversation, we discuss why there’s no “one size fits all” kind of leader, what the true meaning of impact is and how empathy, values and business all interact.

There are many ways to rewrite your career, but have you ever thought about rewriting how language is written? Liron Lavi Turkenich is the inventor of Aravrit, an experimental writing system presenting a set of hybrid letters merging Hebrew and Arabic. Liron is also an independent typeface designer, a researcher, a TEDx speaker and a really good friend (among other things). 

In this episode, Liron shares her unique perspective of the world, how she merges and blends different things so magically - whether it is languages and fonts, professions, interests and even motherhood and career.

Why are you working right now? Not saying that you shouldn’t be, but this conversation with Hamutal Schieber will definitely make you ask yourself some deep and pointed questions.

Hamutal is the founder and CEO of Schieber Research, a keynote speaker and consultant, specializing in consumer goods, trends, and innovation strategy. 

For the last 15 years, Hamutal has been a constant inspiration in my life and career. I feel so lucky to discuss some of the topics we both care about in this episode including burnout, passion, yoga, flexibility and learning.
