As your life, your business, and your career continue to evolve, it’s common to need to make tweaks and changes within your personal and professional life to continue your journey to achieving success. Even small changes can have a significant impact on how you show up in the world.

Today, I want to share with you one small tweak that I recently made in my personal life and how it has dramatically improved my business – and my life.

By taking ownership of my daily schedule, by making a small tweak, I’ve really been able to generate great results.

 

Today on the Fierce Feminine Leadership Podcast:

  • How small changes in your daily routine can improve how you show up in the world
  • How outsourcing tasks and finding an accountability partner helps “free up” mental space so you can work more productively

 

My Challenge to You:

  • Ask yourself: What small tweak can I make in my daily schedule that can generate big results?
  • Ask yourself: What am I not allowing myself to consider because I think “this is the only way it works for me?”
  • Be open and fluid. Explore opportunities. Try new things.

In an age where fame is celebrated for fame, many fierce feminine leaders hold themselves back from building a powerful personal brand. Some even believe that building a personal brand is little more than a vacuous, attention-seeking activity when, in reality, it is so much more than that.

On today’s episode, I’m sharing a replay of a recent personal branding training seminar called Rise Up: 7 Unconventional Strategies to Build Your Personal Brand. I explain what a personal brand is and why it’s important for advancing your career or business as well as share actionable strategies you can use to start building your powerful personal brand. I also explain why you should view your personal brand as a reflection of your values and what you represent and why it should be considered an asset to your professional career.

 

“When you think about great leaders - in order for them to be great leaders, to be recognized as such - it’s not just the impact that they have one-on-one. It’s about what they represent and the impact they have at scale.’ - Eleanor Beaton

 

Today on the Fierce Feminine Leadership Podcast:

  • How building a personal brand allows you to make a greater impact on your industry and humanity.
  • How your personal brand relates to your values and what you represent.
  • What is a personal brand?
  • Why your personal brand should be considered an asset to your business and career.
  • Why now is the time to build your personal brand
  • Identifying the core reason you want to build a personal brand and what you want to achieve.
  • The life cycle of opportunity.
  • Getting clear on various obstacles you may face as you build your personal brand and how to overcome them.
  • How your personal brand impacts your influence.
  • The connection between leadership, influence, and your personal
  • Overcoming the fear of playing big.
  • Dealing with criticism and push back while creating impact and building a personal brand.
  • How adopting a mission bigger than yourself helps you build a strong personal brand.
  • How to identify a bigger, more meaningful mission to adopt.
  • What it means to own the promise of your mission.
  • The importance of sharing your bold, galvanizing point of view on topics you are passionate about.
  • Overcoming the “people pleaser” mindset and getting comfortable with other people disagreeing with you.
  • The difference between fear-based boundaries and intentional boundaries.
  • The importance of mastering the art of public speaking.
  • What “conviction’ means and how to cultivate it.

 

 

Fierce Leadership Quotes:

  • “When you have impact at scale, it means you can amplify the impact that you want to have for much less effort.”
  • “If your personal brand exists only for other people - you are missing the biggest part of the equation.”
  • “Your personal brand is about intentional contribution that reflects your values.”

Numbercrunch is a forward-thinking accounting support company focused on helping startups and small and mid-sized enterprises manage their business finances through Virtual CFO, accounting, and bookkeeping services.

Susan joins me today to share how she pursued her personal interests while working in an organization, the lessons she learned throughout her childhood about entrepreneurship, and how Numbercrunch and Givopoly initially began. She explains the difference between “growth mode” and “expansion mode” as it relates to building your business and how she finds balances her time, energy and creativity while juggling her career and personal life. She also explains why she believes it's critical for more women to have a seat at the boardroom tables and what we need to do to help women achieve this goal.

 

“There is absolutely an open mind to getting women on boards. What there isn’t is a nudge.” - Susan Richards

  • The most powerful lessons she has learned about entrepreneurship.
  • How she pursued her personal interests while working within an organization.

  1. Have a partner.
  2. Give a lot of thought to your business model.
  3. Serve a need - not a want.

 

Fierce Leadership Quotes:

  • “Kill it at the job you’re doing. Make yourself so valuable to that company that they will give you more and more trust. You can be the role you want to be in that organization.” - Susan Richards
  • “I came to the realization that if I’m going to do intense professional - I need to do intense personal. It all kind of balances against each other.” - Susan Richards
  • “There are great organizations now that are helping to train women and make them aware of large board positions, but in parallel to that, we can just tap each other on the shoulders and get us in the right room and make people aware.” - Susan Richards

Magazine, and The Huffington Post has named her as The Most Inspiring Woman of the World.

 

Lolly joins me today to share her story and provide practical strategies on how fierce feminine leaders can explore their leadership gaps to step into their power and lead from within. She also shares ways for you to leverage your “impostor syndrome” to improve your leadership skills and describes her “leadership archetypes”.

 

 

“Striving for perfection is striving to fail.” - Lolly Daskal

 

 

Today on the Fierce Feminine Leadership Podcast:

 

  • Why discipline and routines are important to her
  • The relationship between being present and being disciplined
  • How being disciplined can give you a sense of grounding and expansiveness
  • Balancing the desire to learn, improve, and enhance with the idea that “I’m not broken.”
  • How biographies can be more impactful than self-help books
  • Her definition of a great leader
  • Overcoming challenges when a concept becomes a reality

How to Leverage Your Impostor Syndrome:

 

  1. Stop comparing yourself to others.
  2. Ask yourself: “What did I do today that was better than yesterday? What will I do tomorrow that will be better than today?”
  3. Understand the distinction between perfection and excellence.

As highly ambitious women, striving to reach our goals, dreams, and meet the needs of our clients often leads us to striving for the near-impossible – perfection. Highly ambitious, professional women and female entrepreneurs often find themselves spending countless hours changing, tweaking, revising, and polishing our work – whether it’s that next blog post or the next big course we want to launch – before we finally put it out into the world.

This “perfection addiction” is a common issue for many new and experienced entrepreneurs as well as highly ambitious, successful professional women. Today, I want to share with you my 5 powerhouse strategies for coping with – and overcoming – the perfect addiction.

 

“Embrace the mantra that ‘done’ truly is better than ‘perfect’.”

 

Today on the Fierce Feminine Leadership Podcast:

  • Overcoming the fear of “dropping the ball” when faced with the opportunity to scale and grow
  • Reconciling growth and ambition with perfection

 

5 Powerful Strategies to Cope with Perfection Addiction:

  1. Embrace constraints
  2. Embrace public accountability
  3. Release attachment to limiting relationships
  4. Find bold, imperfect role models
  5. Boss up, woman!

As a woman, it can be challenging to gain the respect you deserve if you are working in a male-dominate industry and now one knows that better than today's guest.

Elem Rinomato’s journey into the construction industry began at the tender age of 8 when she asked her father the simple question, “Daddy, what is drywall?” Today, she is the president of Torino Drywall, a company that builds wall and ceiling system for high-rise and low-rise residential and commercial construction projects as well as the owner of Country Homes – a residential home construction company for the Greater Toronto Area. She is also the Vice President of the Rinomato group of commercial companies, the Vice President of the Board of Directors of the Interior Systems Contractors Association, and a board member of the local apprenticeship committee.

Elem is an incredibly fierce feminine leader in the construction industry, and today, she joins me on the show to share her story. She explains what it was like to be the only woman in the boardroom and how she overcame gender bias in a male-dominated business world.

 

“At the end of the day, one of the only things you have in life is the ability to make your own decisions. If you don’t voice your opinion, if you don’t say how you really feel, you become guilty of letting other people make choices for you.” – Elem Rinomato

 

Today on the Fierce Feminine Leadership Podcast:

  • What she did to set her company apart from her competitors.
  • What it was like to be the only woman in the room – and how she earned the respect of her male counterparts.
  • How to get your voice heard in a male-dominant industry.
  • How removing negativity – and negative people – from your life helps you shift your mindset and become a powerhouse businesswoman.
  • Female intuition and how it helps you achieve success.
  • Why energy, authenticity, and attitude in business is more important than facts, education, money, circumstances, failures, and success.
  • Overcoming the fear of success.

 

Elem Rinomato’s Top 3 Success Strategies:

  • Know your stuff.
  • Attitude is everything.
  • Believe in yourself.

When it comes to personal branding, there is a lot of conventional wisdom, information, and insight floating around the internet. From articles in business magazines and on LinkedIn to professional development workshops, training, and books - there are dozens of “experts” teaching others how to build their personal brand through conventional methods and wisdom. On the surface, most of this advice seems reasonable. However, if you dig a little deeper, you will likely find that the advice and wisdom they share is often counterproductive, ineffective, and even damaging.

 

On today’s episode, I’m discussing why everything you’ve learned about building your personal brand is wrong. I share the three most common myths about building your personal brand, how believing these myths can actually hold you back from achieving your professional goals, and how they can prevent you from showing up as the strong, confident, fierce feminine leader we know you can be. I also explain why your personal brand should be viewed as the byproduct of your decision to be deliberate and intentional and why the way you present yourself and your brand should reinforce your ideas, values, and mission in this world.

  

“I wouldn’t be where I am today if I had listened to the bad, but conventional, advice I received about personal branding.” - Eleanor Beaton

 

Today on the Fierce Feminine Leadership Podcast:

 

  • The importance of aligning your personal brand with your instincts and values.
  • Why building your personal brand is not a “fluff-filled activity.”
  • The dangers of taking advice from people with “unconscious competence.”
  • Why your reputation is critical to your long-term success.
  • Why your presentation should reinforce your ideas.
  • Why the idea that your personal brand is your lead indicator is wrong
  • The importance of viewing your personal brand as the lag indicator - not the compass.
  • Why your brand should be a natural byproduct of you being true to the things that matter most to you. 

Top 3 Myths About Personal Branding:

  1. Don’t build your personal brand.
  2. Presentation trumps ideas.
  3. Building a personal brand constricts your freedom of expression and decisiveness.

Fierce Leadership Quotes:

  • “Bold presentation is going to be most powerful when it reinforces your ideas.”
  • “A brand is a return on investment. It is a lag indicator that you build from being intentional about your values, what you bring to the world, and the contribution you want to make.”
  • Don’t lead with brand. Brand is the afterglow. Action and intention are the things that are going to get you where you want to go.”
