  • There's no escaping this truth: People assume you're a leader when you're a strong communicator, speak well, and present well.

    And they're much likelier to listen to you and buy into your ideas when you're confident and compelling.

    That's why honing your skills is critical to being confident on video โ€” whether it's a presentation on Zoom, speaking on stage, on a virtual keynote, serving on a virtual panel, or recording an educational or promotional video for your website or social media feeds.

    This week's Standout Women Show guest, former TV anchor, reporter, and social media strategist Susan Siravo, will share her best industry secrets so you can go from feeling like a "deer in the headlights" to "dazzling on screen."

    As Susan says, being confident on camera is "a skill that everyone should work to develop."

    Susan has a free course for us, " Don't be a Deer in the Headlights" - Learn to Dazzle on Camera Instead! (In just over an hour, link below)

  • Welcome to another episode of the Standout Women Series, where we spotlight female experts, founders, and entrepreneurs who are building their visibility, personal brands and thought leadership.

    Today, I'm highlighting one of my clients, Tanya Windman, who shares her journey of leaving corporate to launch her new consultancy, Windy & Co.

    Like Tanya, you may be interested in launching your business or pursuing your creative endeavors, but what path should you take? With so many interests, ideas, and possibilities, how do you know what lights you up, what's most needed, and how to attract clients?

    Tanya faced these questions, and this episode details her journey and our work together. From our 'scientific' approach to uncovering your "golden thread" to Tanya's personal evolution framework to her brilliant "creative sandbox system," we share her story and how she attracted clients in her testing mode.

    Finding clarity and fulfillment is beautiful, but action is your best strategy and system. This is an empowering and actionable episode, especially for my emerging entrepreneurs.

  • Are you living in your "comfort cave" -- warm and cozy, but getting NOWHERE
    (and ready to do something about it?)

    For many of us, when we're ready for bigger outcomes and opportunities, we stay paralyzed with fear and inaction.

    Watching the world and others go by doing things we dream of and deserve.

    Let's make this the year you FINALLY do that thing.

    On this week's episode of Ask the Brand Therapist, The Personal Branding Show for Standout Women, join me and this week's guest, Jen Laffin, a Success Mentor, who turns goal-setters into goal-getters to share her frameworks for ACTION.

    You'll learn:

    1. Why we're biologically wired to want to stay inside our Comfort Cave where everything is familiar. and how to finally leave comfort for growth.

    2. Why mistakes and failures are just data and how to redefine what they mean to us.

    3. How every human experiences the self-doubt roadblocks that keep us stuck (procrastination/perfectionism/comparison/ imposter syndrome/confusion/etc. and how to contain them.

    4. Her bonus tips to overcome "daily doubt" required for doing big things.
