Therapy is for everyone, including entrepreneurs, and not something to be ashamed of.

Dr. Nathilee Caldeirais a licensed psychologist and the founder and CEO of Let's Talk Psychological Wellness. Dr. Caldeirashares her journey from emigrating from Guyana at 19 to becoming a successful psychologist in New York. She started studying business, but she switched to psychology after a beautiful class experience and working at a camp for children who experienced trauma.

Bringing together the two disciplines of business and therapy, she created her hugely successful NYC private practice to gain more flexibility and positively impact more lives directly.  However, Dr. Caldeira soon faced overwhelming demand, leading her to expand and hire additional therapists - which was very challenging.

Nathilee now seeks a more balanced approach to business as she is focused on optimally serving both clients and her employees. For her, there is great importance in defining personal success, valuing time over constant growth, and honoring the different seasons of life when making business decisions. Nathilee’s experience with the importance of self-reflection, adaptability, and prioritizing well-being is a great lesson for all entrepreneurs. 

As women, we're often conditioned to keep pushing forward without considering how our goals and circumstances evolve. We have the freedom to redefine success and shape our businesses in a way that aligns with our personal values and life stages. Let’s use our inner power and command of our choices to create the life we desire!

 Your personality is in your business.

Kai Fuentes is the President and Founder of Ebony Marketing Systems, Inc., a multicultural market research firm. With her experience in researching a broad perspective on African American consumer issues, from music, and health, to automobiles, she has specific cultural insights into the research arena, which facilitates ethnic-bound perceptions and attitudes of multicultural communities. She also conducts multicultural market research in various languages, giving a voice to underserved communities and helping them get better living conditions. 

Kai’s sparkling personality empowers those around her, but she was not always kind to herself until she discovered the transformative power of self-awareness and positive self-talk. Replacing negative thoughts with positive ones is crucial, especially for women. Inner work and healing significantly can help in the growth of one’s business. Women must discover their own leadership styles, support their teams, give and receive compliments, and most importantly, value servant leadership by listening to their teams and intuition. Business leaders are like conductors creating a symphony, and that requires the efforts of many people.

So let's connect by building each other up, not by self-deprecation.

Show Notes:

👧🏽 Kai is a second-generation market researcher: Kai’s mom is a black Latina who opened her own market research company back in the 80s. 04:43
👀 When Kai’s trajectory changed: a car accident and subsequent biofeedback therapy positively changed her life. 09:07 
🌸 The more we know about ourselves, the more we can help our business: your business will thrive when you beat the challenges in front of you. 13:26
⚠️ Women are queens of beating themselves up: Kai’s 3:1 cure for this is very powerful. 17:39
😍 Power of complimenting others and accepting compliments from others. 23:50
😇 Kai’s conversations with people in Spanish, Mandarin, Cantonese, Haitian, Creole, and Korean: some people are not heard and no one is advocating for them. 28:30
👩‍💼 Adrienne’s dream of showcasing amazing leaders through a book or a documentary: we are only as good as our team is. 31:41
🎶 As leaders, we are conductors - we are creating a symphony: be confident in your intuition’s calm voice.  34:29
💎 Tips for all entrepreneurs for growing: the power of listening to 3–5 clients and putting your ego aside. 40:43

To have a successful business, the first person we need to learn to lead is ourselves.

Victoria is the CEO of Ugli Ventures, a marketing consultancy for 6-figure female founders, and a podcaster. Victoria focuses on female entrepreneurs and optimizing sales and marketing strategies, team building and leadership development to establish sustainable, profitable 7-figure enterprises. She has cultivated global brands across various sectors and countries including the US, the UK, China, Sri Lanka, the UAE and Mexico. 

Over the course of her career, Victoria has observed that men typically possess a mindset wherein they’re less likely to feel the need to perfect every aspect themselves before delegating tasks. Contrastingly - and generally, women entrepreneurs often feel the need to ‘do it all’ and end up focused on lower level tasks that hinder their businesses momentum. To move more efficiently towards success, it is essential to understand your business from a higher strategic level, envision what success looks like, and rise above the weeds. This high-level perspective allows one to more easily build a scalable marketing machine.

Victoria believes women must do all they can to learn to delegate more effectively and focus on team building to drive business growth. The commitment mindset is something every business owner needs: create the goal, write real numbers down on paper, and check in on them every single week so you can adjust and keep the eye on the prize!

Let’s all commit to delegation for success!

Notes:
👩‍💼 Victoria is on a mission to help women entrepreneurs to success by focusing on a more feminine approach to running businesses rather than adopting the male way of working. 04:13
🤷‍♀️ How to create a successful marketing department: don’t do things alone - nurture your team.  09:38
🗝️ Delegation is the key to growth. 16:27

🪞 Interact with women that have achieved great things. Find your accountability partner. 36:38

Understanding the uniqueness of people around you is a key to success.

Shani Bocian - the CEO of Allermi - started her career as an art historian, curator, and educator, but discovered that her passion lived in helping people feel well! The spark came by observing the incredible relief and improvement in lifestyle that her father- Dr. Bocian’s - custom allergy formulations brought to so many people in her local area. Shani knew that she could help even more people across the US and set about the business of scaling this into a profitable business.  

Her innovative approach to personalized prescribed nasal sprays captured the attention of patients and investors, but the road was not without its bumps. After many rejections and tough meetings, Shani absorbed the feedback and after some internal searching, came to understand how to effectively pitch her business. This shift in focus and being growth minded is the key point of every successful conversation with VCs, and Shani shares her recipe. 

Shani’s passion for her father's popular and effective treatments ultimately led her to the telemedicine field - which provides the ultimate convenience for patients with minor issues. Getting approval to operate Allermi in 45 states was certainly challenging, but Shani is exceptionally passionate about her mission to help people get relief!

It just goes to show that the power of mission and determination can help to break barriers!

💰 Rejections and feedback from VCs helped Shani modify her pitch: investors require data and financial projections. 23:26
🫂 The demoralizing and hurt feelings that come when investors don’t understand your mission: having good support from people around you is crucial. 27:31

Our inside wholeness is what creates prosperity.

Ruchi Pinniger is a former Wall Street executive and founder at Watch Her Prosper.  Her company provides financial mentorship, support, and services to women-led service-based businesses. After personal and family struggles, Ruchi shared a story about how one Prada bag taught her that true prosperity is in inner wholeness rather than material possessions.

Even women would rather talk about their death than money, Ruchi explains that financial support and help are crucial to all businesses of all sizes. The numbers are data and when used properly can show a path one business should take, but creating a safe, non-judgmental space for women to discuss money is crucial for practical financial planning and support.

Not only the financial support matters for business success but also our internal beliefs and self-care. Ruchi’s RIR concept (Recognize, Interrupt, Reframe) helps women shift from disempowering to empowering thoughts about money and success. This involves recognizing negative self-talk, interrupting it, and reframing it with positive affirmations.

Both personal and societal conditioning are tough for women, and there is a need for a holistic approach that will include work but also balance it with well-being and self-compassion. Having more spaciousness and ease in our lives will lead to greater success. Reframing our habits and beliefs is the key and anything is possible for us after that. 

Notes:
👧 Growing up without parents after 15: learning from an immigrant mom reinventing herself. 03:34
🌺 What is prosperity and how to get it: well-being, our spirituality, and then our relationship with people and with money. 07:00
⚠️ Asking for support is crucial for business owners: numbers are data that provide info for the next steps.10:19
😇 Planning and projecting in business: self-care is the first step in working things out. 13:58
⭐ Making yourself a priority impacts your business: let’s find time for ourselves. 17:17
⚡ Paying attention to the language you use with yourself: reframing it with the RIR concept. 18:41
🧠 Subconscious thoughts are the root of our deeds and actions: everything starts in your mind. 24:30
👀 Reframing the shame about loans: look at things from a different perspective. 33:30
💎 The power of gratitude and trust: getting through the hard situations in higher vibration. 34:32

Saying Yes to opportunities in front of you is the key.

Dina Sherman is a voice-over actress and the official announcer for the Annie Awards. She emphasizes the importance of storytelling, authenticity and the constant learning she gained through her extensive experience in animation, anime, commercials, radio, TV, and film.

Her creative career started in elementary school with prank phone calls with impressions and continued with National awards for speaking. The transition from TV and stage to voice-overs was pivotal for her career. Her work in charity and helping underprivileged groups is a way to get back to the community and world for having a great and interesting job she adores. Dina’s focus is on literacy so her charity work in reading to kids and adults transformed towards digital format during COVID through her YouTube channel for kids.

Women are usually pressured with all kinds of ‘shoulds’ and Dina shares how she is balancing this pressure from outside but also created within. As women go through different stages of life, exploring and enjoying all stages of wisdom and experience gained, is the road to happiness and a fulfilled life.

Women are real rock stars.

A woman of many talents and passions, Amanda Samoyloff, is an actor, writer, producer, poet, and the founder of SamoyloffPR, specializing in branding and PR. Amanda started her creative journey from acting as a kid, then continued in her college days through speech and debate, but working with musicians in Hollywood, gave her a specific view towards PR.

Combining her experience with rock stars, Amanda wanted to inject that Rock ‘n’ Roll vibe into clients’ branding while establishing women in the media landscape. As women are not being represented enough in the media, especially in male-dominated fields, women need to ensure diverse voices are heard out there. Women have the common issue of imposter syndrome, but we need to believe in ourselves and as soon as we pull from the backend into the spotlight it will significantly boost our businesses.

Today, Amanda shares strategies about personal branding, the best time to hire a PR, how to leverage your story, and how to prepare before a product launch. Women need to be recognized, but to achieve that, it's important to ditch perfectionism, find time for ourselves, and believe in our strength. Establishing a healthy reward system and finding time for creative activities is crucial for preventing burnout.

We need to shine our light, so let's just keep beating that drum and let’s get out there to rock!

Notes:
🧑‍🎤 National speech and debate award: after college, Amanda started doing PR for rock musicians in LA. 03:50
👩‍💼 In 2020, she applied this experience to female founders and startups. 06:32
🎭 Amanda has been acting since childhood, but her writing and poetry came in college. 09:47
⚡Steps for starts is getting to know your impact, and problems you are trying to solve: get to the podcast and then reverse engineer that to get a PR headline. 11:54
⚠️ Getting PR too late: get your PR campaign going at least 9 months before the product launch. 18:15
▶️ We have to claim our expertise: believe in yourself and stand in front of your company. 23:13
✍️ Poetry comes to Amanda usually when she's physically in motion: stories about relationships and growth. 28:17
🔥 If your reward system is only linked to work, you will become burnout. 32:30
🛑 If you don't work on yourself, your business isn't going to go anywhere: find time for yourself too. 34:14
