One of the trickiest parts of leadership for women, and even more so for women of color, is the tension between being authentic and being “good”.  When we focus on being “good,” we often self-sacrifice and push ourselves to uphold someone else's vision of who we “should” be as a leader.  This can be exhausting, unsustainable, and even damaging to our sense of self over time.  I am so grateful that I had the opportunity to discuss this topic with La Tonya Roberts.   La Tonya Roberts is the CEO of Harmony Consulting Group, where she transforms growth-focused organizations into high-performing businesses as a Fractional COO and HR Consultant. Drawing from 18+ years of experience across 30 countries, she helps companies scale operations, build inclusive cultures, and develop leadership teams that drive growth. Listen in to hear La Tonya share: Her pivotal moment of inviting women to be vulnerable in order to find their own form of authentic leadership Why leaders need to be “real people” to the people they lead How being vulnerable as a black single mom impacted her ability to be a more authentic leader Why leaders need to be able to see and hear what is and IS NOT being said How she made herself fit the mold of a “good leader” for many years and then broke the mold to find her authentic voice and a higher level of success How to get what you need as a woman leader to thrive in any given role.  Links Mentioned: Connect with La Tonya: harmonyconsultinggroup.org  La Tonya on LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/la-tonya-roberts La Tonya on Instagram:  instagram.com/coachlatonyaroberts La Tonya on Facebook: facebook.com/coachlatonyaroberts   [TIME SENSITIVE] Join Sara's Aligned Leadership Incubator: saradean.com/aligned Hire Sara to speak: saradean.com/speaking Coach with Sara: https://saradean.com/executive-coaching-services Connect with Sara on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/saradeanspeaks Watch Shameless Leadership episodes on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@saradeanspeaks Learn more about your ad choices.

Episode 282 of The Business Development Podcast, “What AI Can't Replace in Marketing with Jamie Moffat,” dives deep into the evolution of marketing from its radio roots to today's AI-driven landscape. Jamie Moffat, a 30-year advertising veteran and digital marketing consultant with LocalIQ, shares his journey from selling vacuum cleaners and radio ads in the 90s to leading data-informed, AI-powered campaigns.

Missed calls mean missed opportunities. Always answer or call back fast.8. Data helps guide your strategy, but emotion drives the decision to buy.9.

2 Corinthians 2:12-12:17 - Speaker: Lukus Counterman - In 2 Corinthians 2:12-17, Paul goes to great lengths to discuss authentic gospel ministry. He has been on trial, so to speak, by the Corinthians because of his change of travel plans and cancellation of his second visit to them. They accused him of being fickle and maybe even dishonest. They suggested that he couldn't be trusted and perhaps even lacked apostolic authority. In his attempt to affirm his love and explain why he changed his plans, Paul believes it's necessary to define and defend true gospel ministry. As we study this text together, may the Lord help us embrace genuine gospel ministry. May we participate in and partner with those who give their lives to it.

The Final Episode of The Abundance Hack Podcast — Season 5 Finale This episode marks the end of an era and the beginning of a new one. After 249 episodes, The Abundance Hack Podcast is coming to a close, but the message, the mission, and the evolution continue. In this deeply personal and reflective episode, I speak from the heart about the last 6–7 years of my life, the highs, the heartbreaks, and the moments that shaped me. Through loss, challenges, and deep healing, I found something priceless: myself. Authenticity has a cost. It asks you to shed illusions, release what no longer aligns, and stand rooted in your truth, even when it means standing alone. But the reward is freedom, peace, and alignment with your purpose. This is my goodbye (for now) to The Abundance Hack Podcast as I prepare to step into a new chapter, one that reflects the woman, teacher, and healer I've become. Season 6 will be reborn under a new name, a new energy, and a deeper embodiment of everything I've learned on this journey. Thank you for walking this path with me, for growing, healing, and expanding together. Here's to what's next.

On this episode of Destination on the Left, I talk with Greg Star, Founder of Driven Authentic Branding Solutions, who shares how he helps destinations stand out using LinkedIn. He discusses why it is important to lean into thought leadership posts both for the company profile and the people who work there. Greg shares some real-life examples of results that his clients are seeing and how you can identify your content pillars and find your voice. What You Will Learn in This Episode: How Greg's personal journey reshaped his outlook on business and inspired the launch of his latest company Why elevating both personal and company brands on LinkedIn is critical for industry reputation and business growth What makes personal LinkedIn posts eight times more engaging than company page posts How tourism professionals and executives can use LinkedIn to generate inbound leads and deepen current client connections Finding your authentic voice and consistently creating compelling LinkedIn content Why consistency matters more on LinkedIn than posting daily, and how this steady rhythm builds trust and visibility How commenting thoughtfully on industry posts can dramatically increase your reach and position you as a leader in your field The Overlooked Power of Personal LinkedIn Profiles Most organizations pour time and money into building their company LinkedIn pages. But as Greg points out, you get eight times more engagement from a personal post than a company post. Yet, less than 10% of travel industry professionals actively post on LinkedIn. Company pages do have a role, but it's the people—sales directors, CEOs, and destination marketers—who bring brands to life on LinkedIn. The attention should be on maximizing the personal profiles of the people behind the organization because that is what's going to move the needle the most for DMOs. Telling Your Brand Story: Content Pillars and Practical Examples Most people struggle with what to post or worry about sounding too self-promotional. Greg simplifies content creation with the content pillars approach: define three to five topics you're passionate about, whether it's industry trends, personal growth, customer wins, or behind-the-scenes stories. Posts can be brief, and three to six sentences are often enough. When you're thinking about what to post: Break down real conversations: What do you say to prospects over coffee? Each point can be its own post. Share stories, not just stats: Humanizing your message attracts more engagement and builds connection. Don't reshare, add your voice: Rather than simply reposting, offer your perspective on company updates or industry news. Comment strategically: Thoughtful comments on others' posts can boost your profile—sometimes even more than your own posts. Greg recommends aiming to post one to three times a week. Consistency is more important than volume, and the key is making LinkedIn content a regular part of your work routine. Don't underestimate the impact your personal story and insights can have on your career, and on your destination's growth and reputation. The world wants to know what makes you (and your place) awesome, so start sharing!

Shilpa Reddy, CMO of Down Under School of Yoga and former Marketing VP at Acorns, maps her journey from fintech to wellness and explains why the same principles drive both: make time-tested tools accessible, and build a community that keeps people engaged. She breaks down her three-stage marketing flywheel, and shows why marketers must dismantle the false divide between direct response and brand storytelling. The conversation moves from Acorns' spare-change investing to Down Under's community-driven yoga. She interrogates the role of podcasts as the new TV, the measurement gaps left by ATT, and how authenticity risks becoming uniform in an AI-saturated content world.Questions Shilpa answered in this episode:What drew Shilpa from Acorns to running a yoga business?How curiosity and human-centered marketing let her adapt across industriesWhat is the three-stage marketing flywheel, and how do you know when to move from one stage to the next?Why brand and performance are one continuum, not opposing forces?How LTV makes the case for brand investment with a CFOWhy podcasts function as the ‘new TV' for reach, trust, and ad effectiveness?How marketers should balance host-read storytelling with direct response calls to action?How AT&T's affected mobile marketing measurementWhy authenticity should mean varied storytelling, not uniform brand policingWhat advice Shilpa gives to early-stage wellness founders with no marketing budget?Timestamps:(0:00) – Intro; Shilpa's journey from Acorns to Down Under Yoga(2:00) – Growing up with yoga, curiosity, and career pivots across industries(3:50) – Acorns' mission and how it relates to yoga(8:00) – The three-stage marketing flywheel explained (fit, LTV, brand)(13:50) – Signs you're ready to move between stages (NPS, brand love, data)(15:15) – Making the CFO case for brand investments through LTV(17:00) – The orchestration problem: aligning funnel mechanics with brand reach(19:00) – Podcasts as the new TV: hours consumed, trust, and ad-to-content ratio(24:40) – ATT's impact: creativity up, measurement lagging(26:20) – Authenticity vs. uniformity: the danger of AI-generated generic content(29:30) – Advice to early-stage wellness founders: start with your most loyal clients(55:00) – Wrap-up: Down Under Yoga, on-demand classes, how to connectQuotes:(12:30) – “Stage one is finding who your product is loved by.

It goes straight to the energetic blueprint that's coded in your DNA. This energetic blueprint happened at your birth, as subatomic particles moved through your body and imprinted your DNA. It's the map that's going to lead you back to the most authentic version of you." — Emma Dunwoody "We think we know who we're meant to be and what we're meant to do and we really don't. We can't see that big picture. When you start living more in alignment with your Human Design, you learn to tap into the body, and you're constantly told in every moment what is right for you and what isn't." — Emma Dunwoody "Our purpose is bigger than the job that we do. Our purpose is our energy. Our greatest purpose is just to be our most authentic self, because then we are fulfilling the puzzle piece we need to fulfill to move to this new world." — Emma Dunwoody

Send us a textHere's the story of a radical preacher and Christian hip-hop artist from Rosemead in the SGV whose life was changed by a powerful encounter with Jesus. He shares how he was healed from an “incurable” mental illness, received a new purpose, and set out to reach the streets, homes, and the hearts of the broken with the gospel. From local roots to West Coast impact, his mission is simple: make Jesus known.We talk about the season he stepped away from music for deeper consecration—prayer, fasting, and intimacy with God—and how that refinement shaped his voice. When he preaches, the room shifts; when he raps, the message lands. Street evangelism, testimonies, and viral gospel reels all serve one aim: call people to repentance, freedom, and a real relationship with Christ.His movement, LIVING IN TRUTH, raises a standard for this generation—holiness, boldness, and biblical truth. We get practical about building faith communities around scripture, prayer, and accountability, plus how to partner with churches, creatives, and youth leaders to spark local revival that lasts beyond a single event.If you're hungry for testimonies of healing and deliverance, curious about gospel rap and street ministry, or looking for a blueprint to share your faith online, this episode is for you.

We've all read the data on how storytelling drives connection and empathy. But what happens when people go beyond storytelling and put their most vulnerable, transformative experiences on the page? In this episode, I sit down with Cynthia Gregory—award-winning writer, journaling advocate, and publisher of “Love Notes from the Soul” and the upcoming “Love Notes 2.0”—to talk about how personal narrative can reshape workplace culture, inspire human connection, and even shift our physical and emotional well-being. ✨ Why vulnerability on the page can create power in real life ✨ How storytelling acts as a catalyst for healing, empathy, and impact ✨ What happens when nonprofit leaders and corporate professionals share their truths ✨ The surprising neuroscience behind journaling and emotional regulation ✨ How Cynthia's own silent retreat sparked an anthology movement of everyday miracles This one hits deep. Together we explore why “Love Notes” isn't just a book, it's a movement for more compassionate leadership. If you've ever wondered whether your story matters, this episode is your sign.

On every Marian feast, we should feel a special joy. For they are a reminder of the great love Our Blessed Mother has for us. One of the most visible signs of her love for us is the great gift of the Rosary, a devotion which has antecedents stretching back to the earliest centuries of the Church. Through it, we are promised many graces, not just for ourselves, but for those we hold in our hearts as part of our intentions.

This week, Mike steps “behind the scenes” with Graham Kuhn, the creative force behind Focus Films, whose life reads like a screenplay of transformation, grit, and passion. From the wrestling mats of small-town Wisconsin to the world's grand opera stages — and ultimately to the helm of his own film company — Graham's story proves that the path to success is rarely a straight line. When the pandemic hit days after launching his business, Graham faced what felt like the final curtain. Contracts vanished, plans unraveled — but instead of tapping out, he rewrote the script. Drawing on the resilience forged in wrestling and the discipline learned from decades on stage, he turned adversity into opportunity. Through community, mentorship, and a deep belief in the power of authentic storytelling, Graham brought Focus Films to life — and helped countless others tell stories that matter. Graham opens up about the fear of success, the magic that comes from genuine connection, and the courage it takes to stay true to yourself — even when the world is watching. From helping clients shine on camera to crafting stories that move hearts and minds, this conversation is all about transforming passion into purpose. IN THIS EPISODE: ➡️
