Here's the Power Seat's Challenge:

"I am afraid of missing the moments. My kids are little and I was home for many years. I am started my own business one year ago.

I am stuck because I am scared about not being there for pick up, not being there when they come home and tell me about their day.

In my head I know they will be fine, I am making excuses about lining up the appropriate help so I can spend more time on my work.

I need help.

How do I ….. give myself permission to delegate and let other people help me at home in order to grow my business.

I love my fam, I am passionate about being a mom but I am also passionate about what I'm doing.

I am having difficulty finding balance, because I really suck at delegating."

Here's the Power Seat's Challenge:

"I am at a crossroads; I worked in a career path for 10-15 years. After my third child was born I stayed home for a while, then went back to another career, that suited me in many ways, but not in my heart, so I quit.

I was trying to talk myself through it "Lots of people don't like their job, etc.." but with other pressures from extended family and my family, I had to scale back.

Now I have no plan.

My big challenge is to learn to listen to my own voice again. I haven't listened to it for a while. There is so much noise coming in, I can't find a way to shut it out right now.

I am vacillating between hopeful and hopeless.

Now I feel lost and my confidence is low.

I just want to figure out what is next and how can I get myself there.

HOW DO I

How do I find my path?  In terms of career and balancing with the rest of my family.

I have a daughter and want to teach her that you can do it all, without giving something up. But that's not possible."

Here's the Power Seat's challenge:

"I started my own business 2.5 years ago. It's been going well.

I gave myself permission for the first two year to go with the flow.

Now I feel like I should pick an area of focus.  This should be an exciting time, but it isn't.

My feelings around having to make a decision are rooted in fear. 

I am procrastinating and making excuses.

I am feeling stuck.

I have goals, and I'll tell people what they are, but then I'll say "I am too busy working in my business that I can't work on my business".

I need to get out of that!

How do I stop being a chicken. Pick an area of focus and take it to the next level.

If I do that I'm coming out of my shell out of my shell, but I feel like I'm holding myself back.

It feels like I am self-sabotaging."

Here's the Power Seat's challenge:

"My career is in academics.

I've always wanted to be professor; however I had a game changer. 

One of my kids was born with medical issues and continues to have special needs, and ever since my career has been in a start stop.

I'm doing my PHD and teaching, researching attending conferences and writing…then sometimes I actually withdraw from the University because I don't have the time.

I constantly feel, like I'm self-disgusted.

Saying to myself "Why aren't you motivated to finish what you started? Everyone else who started with you is so much further along."

I'm losing friends, who have moved on, whether mutual or I just can't reach out right now because they are doing so much and I am still back here.

Mostly though, I feel very confident with the choices I've made about my career. I have NO issue making it a priority over my career.

I feel, the imposter syndrome is very large in academia, you never feel like you are smart enough, or wrote the best article.

I want to finish, but how do I do it?

Are these my people anymore? Is it my lifestyle? Do I go for it? Do I apply for tenure track job?

Or do I accept it's not my life anymore, time to look for another career.

When I sit down to write, get something published, attend a  conference, etc.

I realize, this is what I'm good at.

But it's an intense field.

I feel like I have a double life.

HOW DO I know what to do?

Do I finish this degreed to continue on this career path or do I cut and run?

Here's the Power Seat's challenge:

"I own my own business and I consult companies.

I am considered an expert, but there are a lot of times that I feel like I am the biggest phony and fake and I am waiting for them to realize I don't know anything.

I'm trying to tell myself that I do know a lot, but I really don't know about everything about the current industry I'm serving.

I keep thinking they are going to say "she doesn't know what she's doing'.

How do I….

How do I believe in myself a little more and give myself a little slack when I don' t have all of the answers and everything figured out?"

Here's the Power Seat's challenge:

"I had been off work for 12 years.

Three years ago I wanted to go back to work, probably financially driven but not sure. I have stories around never having enough money.

I decided last summer to find a job, then it all came around really quickly. I didn't think anyone would want to hire me, but they did.

I took the job, it's been 5 months and it's a full time sales job. 

I have 3 kids, one with complex special needs.

My life is full.

I'm dissatisfied, but it's become a trend.

I was dissatisfied at home, so I got a job.

Now I'm dissatisfied at work.

I don't want to do this, but I don't know what I want to do.

I don't want 2 full time jobs.

I don't want to fail.

I don't want to get fired.

I want to find joy.

But I'm so overwhelmed, I can't find joy.

HOW DO IT...

How do I decide if I should be doing this? If there is a different version of 'this' that would make me happier?

How can I show up with more joy in her life?

I have a great job, they pay me well, but my kids need me a lot, and I love them dearly…but I'm  not finding joy anywhere.

This is the point that I am the least joyful I have ever been in my life.

How do I fix this?

Everything I have done, I've chosen to do.

I have chosen to be here.

I'm so frustrated to say the least!"

Here's the Power Seat's challenge:

"10 years ago I quit my job and started a company.

Thinking "this will be a nice hobby, part time so I can spend time with kids"….low and behold, 10 years later my company is extremely successful and grown way beyond what I had ever thought it would be.

Taking way more of my time and impacting some of my other values.

Do I sell my company, because of the values conflict?

Do I give everything and give the company all of me??

Do I truncate myself from the company – in the past I have felt like not doing a great job at anything!

I feel a lot of guilt, around asking my husband and family for what I need from them so I can do what I need for my company.

I'm right in it right now, trying to figure out where to go.

I feel huge guilt, both at work and home.

My team is putting in huge hours every day. I do half the hours because I am trying to do all the other things.

Like at Christmas break, family ski holiday, working in hotel 8-10 hours/day asking "how was your day, sorry I wasn't there."

Guilt is big.

I feel like I want to see where my company can go.

But, my kids are teens and it's a trying time. One of my kids was making choices that were putting her in danger, and I felt so guilty.

HOW DO I:

How do I make the choice I have to make? To pick a focus and sacrifice one for the other."

Here's the Power Seat's challenge:

I am ready to transition into a new career.

I have had some great successes in my current career, that's over a decade long. In the last year I've felt that I'm not growing or developing in the way I want to.

I feel like I'm actively being channelled into projects that I'm not at all interested in, in spite of all joy and success I used to experience.

With the help of a life counselor, I've found joy in other parts of my life and how I want to define myself.

I've had a few interviews here and there, and there's forward movement.

But my challenge is:

How do I…., in the face of possible constant rejection, not forget the success I've had and to feel like I have the right to expect big things in the next thing I do.

I feel sheer terror and insecurity.

I have spent 12 years building credibility …but going into the next phase I feel like an imposter.

How can I trust in all my skills and that others will see my value?

Hey and welcome to the Podcast.

This Podcast started out as Your Power Tribe, but I changed the name to Your Power Outlet in Season 2.  

You if you are curious Why, you can listen to my uncut and raw journey in Episode 19.

Otherwise, below are my notes from when and where I started. For now, I feel compelled to leave them as is.

*******

I am your host Victoria Turner and I am thrilled to have you here.

I am an executive coach, entrepreneur and mother of three who works with professional women to get out of their own way, or as I like to say #GOOYOW, but for Your Power Tribe Podcast, I am not coaching.

My mission here is to create an outlet where working women can tune in to gain new perspectives by hearing how other women are navigating the similar challenges we all face, the things that are keeping us feeling stuck or bringing us less than joy…. 

Because we are not alone.

This is a place where women choose to ditch their need for perfection, open their armour and show up authentically.

Each episode has 3 segments.

First, we have a guest in the Power Seat, who may be a CEO, entrepreneur or stay-at –home mom  who shares her challenge and ask for what she needs.

Secondly, the other 5-6 women at the table ask clarifying questions.

Third and final segment is where the women at the table share our relevant experiences.

The sharing is done in service to all of us, you the listener, the women at the table and of course the Power Seat.

We all get to hear new perspectives and choose what resonates, what we want to be intentional about doing differently in our own lives.

Because… we don't know what we don't know… and this is why we have so much to learn from each other.

And as unnatural as it may feel….nobody is actually going tell The Power Seat what to do. Who are we to tell anyone what to do.

The #Powertribe members are anonymous, so we open each episode with an opportunity to get a sense of the humans at the table, by either asking a question or pulling a word from my deck of cards and seeing what comes up for each person.

I'm so grateful that you've checked into see what Your Power Tribe Podcast is about.  It was created in service of all of us and my wish is for you to know that this is Your #PowerTribe.

*************** 

STAYING CONNECTED:

I've created a GOOYOW Facebook Group as a place to share what resonated, what you want to hold yourself accountable to doing differently, or just check in. Use however you feel inspired to.  It's there for you!

You can also connect with me on Instagram @YourPowerOutlet.

Cheers, and have an awesome rest of your day!
