The podcast currently has 19 episodes available.
On TheCrea8ve EntreprenHER Podcast, I interview Guest Speakers who share topics are around creativity, entrepreneurship, or a little bit of both. Available on all good podcast locations as well as the Video interview on YouTube. I’m focusing on women in business lately, and that tends to touch on some really juicy discussions of strength, empowerment, life stories and taking the path least traveled. Which brings me to today’s episode: “Bye, Bye Glass Ceiling, Hello Confident Compassionate Leading" with guest, Damon D'Amore, of Legacy Mentor.
Damon has spent more than 20 years working directly with C-Suite leaders in Fortune 500 firms. His work focuses on psychological performance, storytelling to gain stakeholder advocacy and crisis leadership. Damon speaks internationally on storytelling, legacy, women in leadership, resilience, mindset, and applying the lessons of entrepreneurship to corporate environments. More than half of Damon’s clients are female leaders in the C-Suite. You can learn more about Damon D'Amore at www.legacymentor.co or on Instagram: @legacymentorofficial. You can also find him on LinkedIn at www.linkedin.com/in/damondamore
Themes explored:
One of my favorite comments Damon shared around "Crisis Leadership" in our Podcast interview is,
"You have to wakeup every morning, knowing everything will go horribly wrong, but knowing you will be OK, and your stakeholders will be too. If you're not confident in yourself no-one will be confident in you. If you don’t believe in it, no-one will. Things are never perfect, but being able to move from reactive to proactive as soon as possible with accountability systems is the key to leadership."
Other topics we covered:
* how Damon shows up as a facilitator for female leaders to be great in the workplace
* trends and failures of leadership and what to look out for
* influencing others in the workplace title or no title
* breaking the glass ceiling and some myths of leadership
* how women leaders they need to show up
* "psychological performance" - one of Damon's key coaching focuses
* “Owning your s**t” and getting your head together
* becoming an effective "storyteller" for stakeholders
* navigating ambiguity
* How to take more risks
* self validation versus external validation
* prioritizing ourselves rather than team - effective delegation rather than doing everything to make sure the boss approves you!
* dealing with crisis leadership - another key Damon focus in his coaching
* being comfortable being uncomfortable
* How a leader should be seen by her direct reports and why they should be "a little scared", and when you "need to come across as a b*tch", is actually healthy.
* be empowered as a decision maker and executor.
AND we listened to my song, BYE (Italian Version), which I wrote, produced and performed and is one of the things I do in EVERY podcast, we take it to the music for a bit. If you are watching this podcast on Youtube you get to watch the music video!

So today 2 Powerhouse PMO Women Leaders Walk Into A Room... my Podcast Room of course! We're talking about PMO Project Leadership and running your own global business as a female entrepreneur. Louise Gardner is the founder and managing director of Pledge Consulting, a specialist project management consulting business based in Sydney Australia. Louise founded the business in 2012 after becoming frustrated with corporate life after 15 years working in large organisations.
I really resonate with Louise because we are both PMO Leaders and so I’ve been inspired by her from the get go. I literally stalked her on LinkedIn and eventually reached out because I resonated with her ethos, her thought leadership so much. And recently we met for the first time over the Xmas holidays. Today we want to dive into a little bit on what makes her tick as an EntreprenHER, and she has some really great thoughts on building a professional services business and why delivering projects is important through a PMO. What the heck is a PMO? You’ll find out. Watch and listen!

We are speaking a lot about Building Community and Leading by Example, with my fine guest, ESTHER DEUTSCH.
Esther is a quintessential EntreprenHER and a really inspiring community builder. As Senior Partner Success Manager at Net at Work, she holds a Master's degree in Social Work and a Bachelor's degree in Business. Esther co-hosts a networking community to help bring business professionals together called www.inthistogetherroundtable.com. She also enjoys volunteering, especially with groups for women in technology and ran a mission trip to teach coding to young girls in the country of Belize! We met recently at the Channel Futures Leadership Summit in Miami where I moderated a panel of women leaders in business, and we hit it off so well, I asked her to come on to my podcast for a good chat.
Some great quotes from today’s episode:* Nobody starts at the top.* Everybody sees the end but nobody sees the work and grind* Money is needed to be able to make a bigger impact. Our relationship with money can be hard but if we look at it for doing the greater good, we build a better relationship.* Every big idea takes community and action* Esther’s favorite quote is “Leadership is a stance in the world, it’s not a job title” - don’t be afraid to take on leadership and step up. Doesn’t matter where you are at, even if you are a student. You never know what impact you can make* Let’s scrap the word ‘networking’ and change it to ‘relationship building and transformation or partnership development* right people will come to you ce]lear brand* employees can also be your community
We had a great 40 mins conversation and there were so many more awesome nuggets.
As I usually do with all my guest speakers, I asked Esther to pick a song from the GILLI MOON vault, and she picked ‘FIRE’. So we also played the song and for those watching, you can watch the music video. ‘FIRE’ is from my Beautiful Mess album, which helped wrap the theme for today about following your passions.

ABOUT DEBORAH BISHOP
Deborah Bishop is both an award winning Performing, Recording Artist and a highly noted Energetic Practitioner. In her private practice she specializes in helping entreprenHers in moving from their survival patterns that run on auto pilot, to the conscious creation of the success and life they deserve. Today we are talking about Getting beyond ‘Survive’ to ‘Thrive’ as a female entrepreneur
And…
Also we’ll listen to one of my songs, which she picked. I do this every episode: each guest has to pick a gilli moon original, haha. So check out my song - Temperamental Angel - which I’ll play the song, right here, on today’s podcast (if you’re watching the Video version of the podcast you can watch the music video too).
Some great quotes from today’s episode:
* Owning all parts of me
* Living your truth brings abundance
* What people think of me is none of my business
* How to feel Instant manifestation
* The minute you focus on what you are doing wrong, you’ll do it wrong. Decide you’re doing it right
* The only person stopping me is me.
* Trust your gut
* You can’t live on willpower alone
* Really looking at who we are ultimately allows us to be successful willing to take the moment and say “i’m worth more than this”
* At any moment you can say, “I Am This”
Listen as I interview Deb and learn
* How lack of money talk creates dysfunction and blocks to attract money, but we don’t realize we have the dysfunction
* Why mindset alone is not enough - if you are not handling your emotional truths, that will threaten your mindset.
* How to move towards the thing that makes you feel better
* What is the Foundational Lie? - How trauma can no longer trigger (even if it still exists)
* Where doing a lot versus, focused effort, can change your direction to the next level of freedom

Hi, Gilli here at theCrea8ve. Welcome to another episode of theCrea8ve EntreprenHER Podcast.
TheCrea8ve EntreprenHER Podcast interviews Guest Speakers who share topics are around creativity, entrepreneurship, or a little bit of both. I'm also focusing on women in business lately, and that tends to touch on some really juicy discussions of strength, empowerment, life stories and taking the path least traveled. Which brings me to today’s episode.
I’m excited to welcome Deb Dutta of Criya, as my special guest.
Listen to the podcast above (www.thecrea8ve.com/podcast) and on Spotify, Apple Music, and other good places
Or Watch the Video Interview above (tap play) or on YouTube directly. Personally, my favorite as you get to SEE us!!)
Please subscribe, like and comment also on social @theCrea8ve (Facebook & Instagram) and @officiallygilli (Twitter).
Deb Dutta, is my special guest
and is the Founder & CEO of Criya, a tech startup backed by Y Combinator and top tier VCs, and a platform I’m also a member or as a coach.
Deb is passionate about empowering a vibrant community of senior professionals to launch their personal brands and share their valuable coaching and expertise through Criya, and has assembled an exceptional team of product, technology & business leaders from renowned companies like Meta, Amazon, Oracle, and PayPal.
Her work has been recognized and featured on prestigious platforms such as Forbes, TechCrunch, New York Times, and Y Combinator.
Additionally, she actively contributes to Forbes and lead the Women in Product chapter, where she mentors aspiring professionals through their Product careers.
I really resonated with Deb’s journey which you’ll hear more about in the podcast. It’s almost like we had a similar path, but completely different. For me coming from Australia to the US 25 years ago, I felt a kindred spirit in Deb also a first generation immigrant to America. She became a social influencer before Criya, and I was a music artist, and now both leaders in Technology. So her story touched me very much.
Deb has really built her own path as a product and technology leader, and becoming a truly successful, kickass female Entrepreneur - EntreprenHER - as a founder of a new incredible Silicon Valley Startup, which is no easy matter, finding the support of VC funding and building a platform of excellence that customers like myself (coaches and tech leaders alike) expect. You just have to listen in on this one, because she is truly inspiring!

And…
Also we’ll listen to one of my songs, which she picked. I do this every episode: each guest has to pick a gilli moon original, haha. So check out my song - The Light - that she picked and I’ll play the song, right here, on today’s podcast (if you’re watching the Video version of the podcast you can see the debut of the music video too).

Gilli
