I am a huge Ruchika Tulshyan fangirl. You'll learn why as you listen to this replay of our conversation from last year!
Since then, Ruchika has operationalized a new way to highlight the voices of historically underrecognized folks with her #AmplifyJuly campaign. As she shared, if you have a platform and influence, you have a responsibility to use your privilege in a tangible, actionable way to amplify the voices of others.
If you are building your influence and thought leadership, how could you take a page out of Ruchikaâs book and turn over the mic?
We touch upon this in our conversation from last year, as well as recognizing systems of oppression as the cause of imposter syndrome, reframing mindset barriers around leadership and visibility, and how to make inclusion a daily practice in your life.

Resonance > reach. And, quality is more important than quantity - which is easier said than embodied. This is where we have to unlearn the deep, entrenched inclination towards MORE. Towards always scaling, producing the biggest results, or having access to the most eyeballs and earholes.
None of that is actually necessary (and it may not even be helpful to your goals.)
This episode is about âmeasuring the magicâ when it comes to thought leadership and visibility efforts. Iâll share what makes content resonate with your audience and some clues on how we can find the signals of resonance on LinkedIn and through email marketing.

Creativity is a skill that builds our influence, recognition, and changemaking capacity, and itâs not just for the reasons you might think.
Without creativity, we canât imagine our way out of the status quo. Itâs our ability to dream up a new kind of future that will spark the just transition that we're working towards.
If you work on a problem you are deeply passionate about, itâs your creativity along with the recognition youâre building as a thought leader that can spark the ripple effect you're after.
In this episode, I talk about how to work out your âcreativity muscleâ and keep it strong for your changemaking work as a coach, consultant, service provider, or nonprofit leader.
