In todayās episode, Iām breaking down why itās so damned hard for us to prioritize rest as leaders, specifically.
But even better, Iām also providing real life examples from a bunch of my clients to show how the principles weāve talked about this season have led them to be even more effective leaders.
Why?
Because representation fucking matters.
So I want to make sure you see that you arenāt the first to prioritize your thriving as a leader.
Other leaders of color, just like you, are doing this work ā without sacrificing success, financial stability, etc.
And not only are they thriving, but the people around them are thriving, too.

If thereās one thing weāve all learned as folks of color in white dominated societies, itās this:
We are only worthy of being respected and lauded if weāre exceptional.
In this episode, Iām doing a deep dive on exceptionalism and how it impacts rest for leaders of color.
Iāll also be breaking down:
how to evaluate if you REALLY care about being exceptional, or if society just taught you to care
practices to help you feel safe even when youāre not āexceptionalā
how to start choosing your rest over your work

Hereās something we donāt talk about enough in regards to rest:
Sometimes, youāre not exhausted because youāre working long hours, or spending a ton of time on something.
Youāre exhausted because the thing that youāre doing, while short-lived, is emotionally draining.
In this episode, we talk about:
ššæthe surprising reason so many folks are burnt out
ššæa small practice that helped her stop feeling guilty/shameful for not doing enough
ššæhow she stopped feeling shame when she didnāt have capacity for everything they āshouldā do
ššæthe truth about emotional labor and how much it impacts you as a BIPOC leader
ššæhow to do more of what you WANT to do instead of what you SHOULD DO

Today we're talking about the B word... Not that one! The other one, BOUNDARIES.
Boundaries are really fucking hard for almost all of us (myself included, sometimes!) because we live in a society where having personal boundaries is thought of as being selfish.
In todayās episode of the podcast, I break down why:
ššæworking on your ability to create & uphold boundaries is essential to rest
ššæyou have to learn how to create & uphold boundaries with yourself
ššæyou have to work on building your confidence to be better with boundaries
I also go into a LOT of the āhowā in this episode.
I share:
ššæmy tried and true tool for helping clients get clear on what they ACTUALLY have capacity for
ššæ a trick to help you feel confident that youāve done āenoughā and deserve to enforce your boundaries
ššæmindset shifts to help you navigate when folks push back against your boundaries
Thereās 100% something even the most boundaried person in the world could take away from todayās episode.

When Jaya and I started working together, they had been burnt out since their teens.
(You read that right, their TEENS)
Jaya leads a department for tech-driven programming a social justice nonprofit. Previously, they have run marketing and advertising campaigns at a number of startups and nonprofits over six years.
And even though they had just had their most successful career yetā¦
ā¦internally, they were hitting a breaking point.
They still felt like they werenāt enough. They couldnāt celebrate themselves. They were working seven days a week for months on end.And their burnout had become physical, leaving them with chronic headaches and stomach issues.
Sounds pretty dire, right? It was.
Jaya now considers themselves recovered from burnout ā after over a decade of pain.
They are no longer working twice as hard ā matter of fact, theyāre working way less. while still delivering excellent results at work.
Listen in to find out how Jaya did it!

No matter what your racial or ethnic background is, if you grew up in a white-dominated environment, your parents probably told you some version of this:
āWe have to work twice as hard to get half as much as white folks.ā
In this episode, called, āStop Working Twice As Hardā, Iāll be breaking down:
š”when it IS true that we have to work twice as hard as folks of color
š”why working twice as hard stops working sometimes
š”simple ways you can cut down the work you do so that youāre no longer working twice as hard and burning yourself out
ā¦and so much more.
This episode will have some hard truths (and some exciting perspective shifts!), but if you want to have more rest without sacrificing success, this is an episode you have to hear.Connect with Gieselle:

When I met my client Cassandra, she was an entrepreneur and the leader of a robust team of employees and contractors.
Business was greatā¦ but the personal was, well, not.
She struggled to take time off, or enjoy her free time, because she still felt entirely integral to her teamās execution & success.
These days Cassandra is literally a whole new leader:
sheās created new, bold boundaries with her team & clients
she takes so much time off to travel, Iām jealous (and thatās saying a lot!)
she delegates ruthlessly
she has a robust personal life that is creative, exciting, and thrilling
she asks for what she needs, when she needs it ā without internal drama
sheās unafraid of difficult conversations (even if they might impact her bottom line)
Listen in to find out how she did it and how she continues to thrive.

ššædo we really need to work twice as hard as folks of color?
ššæfeeling safe doing less & creating boundaries as a leader of color who is genuinely judged differently
ššæprioritizing yourself & your needs without shirking your responsibilities as a good leader
ššædecoupling your identity with your work and with being āexceptionalā

As folks of color, itās not uncommon for us to start our businesses because we hit (racist) walls in the corporate world.
The only problem?
Most of the timeā¦we start our businesses being that same shitty boss we tried to escape.
In todayās episode, Iāll be sharing the ultimate key to being loud, being real, and being seen:
Doing it your own damn way.
(Seriously, donāt even do mine!)
This is why, when I recorded todayās episode of the Revolutionary Rising Podcast, I gave it a bold name:
The Most Important Episode
Because the truth is, nothing else Iāve told you throughout this season is going to matter if youāre still accidentally implementing it through this white supremacist, patriarchal lens.
Iāll also be talking about how you:
Donāt have to hustle to be loud, real, and be seen Can be super private (or shy!) and still be fully expressed Can start implementing YOUR unique way of being loud, real, and seenConnect with Gieselle:

As a result of ācancel culture,ā you might feel pretty damned unsafe showing up boldly in these streets, because you canāt afford to say the wrong thing and have it impact your finances.

But Iām over that drama now.
In this episode, Iām talking about:
why being called out can actually be a GOOD thing the #1 thing thatāll help you give zero fucks about getting called out how it might be a good idea to care less about harming people (I know, spicy!) what to do if you get called out

When Eleanor and I met, Eleanor was running a profitable, successful financial consulting business and tbh, she was miserable.
She was still working with (white dude) clients she hatedā¦
ā¦working all hours of the day and nightā¦
ā¦and was putting her passion projects to the side for what was more urgent and important.
Today, her business couldnāt look any more different, and itās safe to say that she has fully reclaimed it.
Now, she integrated her passions INTO her business (she does financial coaching for women of color, too!)
In this episode, Eleanor and I talk about:
How our work together supported her in reclaiming her business to go from being a burden to something that she loved. Her history as a first gen Filipino woman, wife, and mother - and how it was impacting her ability to exist in the world the way she wanted How she makes change in her business in sustainable, trauma-informed ways

She recently transitioned her career from primarily working with early-stage VC-funded startups to coaching individuals. Her passion lies in helping women connect with themselves and their ancestors to understand their inherent beauty and unique gifts. She believes that love, connection, and spiritual partnering are the ways that she can support women through this journey along with her financial experience.
