What would you tell your younger self?  

This question always seems to strike a chord with my guests and give them pause.

Wouldn't it have been wonderful to have a cool, wise older woman sherpa you through your career, motherhood, and womanhood instead of floundering alone?

 Tyler Skinner is taking the "younger self" question to the next level with
The Next Wave: Evoke the Leader Within 2023.

Tyler Skinner is the Founder of  @women.making.waves and Connected Communities.   She is also the host of the Mishaps, Magic, & Mayhem Podcast.

Tyler is here to make a difference by building a community of passionate highly charged women together to make the biggest waves they can in every aspect of their lives along with uplifting and supporting other women seeking the same.

In this episode, we talk about her newest venture:
The Next Wave experience was created because we got really sick & tired of hearing powerful, smart, driven women say they don’t feel supported, let alone feel like they’re actually seen.

Peggy Olson said, “if you don’t like the conversation, change it.”

It's for college-age women (18-25) to be mentored by mentors who are making waves in their own right.   I'm (Miri) going to be a mentor! 
 
It’s time to start a conversation around how we show up as women and retain our feminine power while leading entire companies, movements, and passion projects to success. ‍
 
 ‍Evoke the Leader Within 2023 is designed to help you break into the conversation and share your ideas for innovation.

It’s time to share your vision.
‍
It’s time to get innovative and speak up.

It’s time to face challenges head-on and have your voice heard.

In this episode, we discuss how Paden Hughes went from a life of constant hustle and high ambition to finally listening to her body protesting it all.

We talk with the Author/CEO about how to get back up after burning yourself out, how to navigate being a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP), and managing it all while being a mom and a CEO. We also talk about her amazing book, Take Two, in which she chronicles her journey by resolving to take 2 hours per day to tune back in to herself.

About Paden Hughes:

Paden Hughes is a founder, speaker, podcaster, and author who is a leader in the areas of professional development, entrepreneurship, and health.

She was born and raised in California. She's a wife and a mom who is obsessed with defining success on her own terms and coaching others on how to buy back their time and experience with true freedom.

Paden Hughes believed that if she hustled more and more every day, her kids would be happier, her company bigger, her husband prouder, and her life simply perfect. Work hard, play hard, right? 

Well, she did it!   She was a respected business consultant: growing dozens of companies from six figures to seven and eight figures. She was a highly rated leadership trainer and speaker at Fortune 500 companies and grew her first business to 7-figures. A highly anxious, people-pleaser with no work boundaries, just blinded by her ambition to chase badge of honor after badge of honor so she could finally feel “good enough.”

Then she became a mom (twice over) and depletion heaped on top of her teetering health. Enter 2020 and the pandemic that shuttered her “non essential” business.

She headed to Sedona on a week long “soul adventure” and walked away with the marching orders to spend two hours a day alone, just learning to relax and reconnect with her intuition and needs. She carved that time out of her work hours so it wouldn’t impact her family. Just worked 10 less hours per week. Imagine setting that kind of boundary in your life? 

She gave it a three week trial and managed to do 21 days in a row. Shocked by how many things improved in her life, she kept going. That simple daily habit improved her health, wealth and happiness so dramatically that wrote a book about it. And now that journey is helping other ambitious women shift their lives too.

In this week's episode, we discuss issues of #race, #weight, and systems of #oppression with Lindley Ashline. 

Other themes:
- Embracing our true selves
- #bodypositivity for larger bodies
-  How systems are not built for all sizes
- #weightstigma as an offshoot of #racism

About Lindley Ashline:

Lindley Ashline creates photographs that celebrate the unique beauty of bodies that fall outside conventional "beauty" standards. She fights #weightstigma by giving #fat people a safe place to explore how their bodies look on camera and by increasing the representation of #fatbodies in photography, advertising, fine art and the world at large (pun intended?).

Lindley is also the creator of Body Liberation Stock (body-positive stock images for commercial use) and the Body Love Shop (a curated resource for body-friendly products and artwork). Find Lindley's work and get her free weekly Body Liberation Guide at http://bit.ly/bodyliberationguide.
