Today's guest, Marj, always wanted her daughter, Chloe, to be a normal kid. When Marj and her husband first adopted Chloe, she already had medical concerns, but at 20 months of age, their lives were turned upside down when Chloe was diagnosed with cancer. Chloe lived the next 14 years of her life with cancer, but Marj continued to try to make her life as normal as possible. When Chloe's parents sent her to summer camp for kids with cancer (now called Campfire Circle), Marj and Chloe took a flight to where Chloe would be able to get on a bus for camp. As a kid, Marj had loved going to summer camp and she new that Chloe would love the experience as well - if they could get her to go. The night before she was to get on the bus, Chloe called her dad and said, 'I don't think Mommy loves me anymore. I think she is trying to get rid of me. She's sending me to this camp and I don't want to go, Daddy.' She was almost frantic with worry, but somehow, Marj convinced her to get on the bus that morning. When Marj came to pick her up two weeks later, Chloe's expression was one of pure joy. She shared that camp had 'changed her life.' At camp, she was a regular kid. She didn't have to explain herself to anyone. At camp, being in a wheelchair or needing an oxygen tank didn't make a kid feel like an outsider. These things were completely normal. If Chloe didn't feel like eating, she didn't have to eat. When other kids were swimming and Chloe felt like she wanted to stay in the boat and take pictures, she stayed in the boat and took pictures. After those first 2 weeks at camp, Chloe went each year until the camp had to be closed for COVID. Marj says that those weeks were magical for Chloe. Since Chloe's death, Marj has struggled to find purpose in her life again. Finding a reason to get out of bed can be a challenge. Marj wondered what it would be like to visit Chloe's magical camp so she went to volunteer. Marj said that she felt Chloe at the camp and could see why she loved it so much. Marj hopes that moving forward, it can be a place for her to go to feel Chloe's presence and a bit of camp magic each summer as well.

Ideas can include mini golf or hiking, as long as its offsite to break the cycle that takes place off camp. What's even better is going to these offsite events with intention. In Matt's example, before they left for minigolf, they had their staff divide into four categories based on skill. Allow your staff to put themselves into their own group to allow them to set their own expectations going into the event. Put intention into your offsites to help include all your staff.Special Guest:Matt Wilfrid, Summer Camp Professional, Executive Producer and Consultant at Go Camp Pro-Your Hosts:Beth Allison, Camp Consultant - Go Camp ProRuby Compton, Chief Exploration Officer - Ruby OutdoorsGabrielle Raill, Camp Director - Camp Ouareau-Thanks to our sponsor…UltraCampWouldn't it be refreshing if your registration software gave you MORE time?

I've recently been invited to some awesome spaces to talk about being “Lazy on LinkedIn” – or spending one intentional hour a week on LinkedIn to move the needle in your business. I love talking about this and it seems to resonate so in today's episode, I'm sharing my 3-part framework that makes being Lazy on LinkedIn possible.  So, how do we show up as go-to consultants, coaches, or service providers on LinkedIn in a “lazy” (or let's say life-first) way? Tune in to find out, including specific checkpoints to see where you could grow!

Imposter thoughts stop so many impactful entrepreneurs and executives from getting visible and building their thought leadership – especially on a platform like LinkedIn.But the most effective and long-lasting way to build trust and community as an expertise-based small business is to SHARE that expertise publicly, imperfectly, clearly, and proudly!In this solo episode, I outline Dr. Valerie Young's five flavors of imposter thoughts and how they specifically show up for mission-driven humans building their thought leadership brand.  More importantly, I share actionable reframes you can practice to build new thoughts in the moment and serve your people in a deeper way.“Showing up with love and positive intention is enough, because the reader, the ideal client, the beloved human being I am trying to reach does not need me to be perfect, they need me to be ME.  That's all I can give to them, and that is enough.”To read a full transcript of the episode, visit: LUMOS MARKETINGResources from this episode:Get on the Thought Leadership Clarity Course Waitlist - I'll send you the first episode for free on June 1.

One year after launching this podcast, I've discovered some benefits that anyone wanting to get more visible as a go-to guide should know about. Yes, there are obvious benefits like brand awareness and credibility, but there are five specific and surprising benefits of launching and hosting a podcast that you may not expect. Plus, I'm sharing my best advice for folks thinking about starting a podcast, those newer to podcasting, or even thought leaders who have been podcasting for years.In this episode:[03:13] Practice emergent conversations that sharpen your listening skills[08:28] Practice publishing your perspective to nurture your own voice[11:33] Build community with EPIC people[14:44] Build a growing library of resources to educate, inform, and inspire[18:39] Repurposing content to sustainably show up[20:15] Advice for starting a podcastTo read a full transcript of the episode, visit: LUMOS MARKETINGResources from this episode:adrienne maree brown: Emergent Strategy.Catch up with Episode 25 of The Campfire Circle to learn more about the Four Barriers to Visibility on LinkedIn (and How to Overcome them).14 LinkedIn Content Prompts: Build your personal brand and thought leadership, show up for your target audience and grow your know-like-trust factor with your professional audience on LinkedIn.  Connect with Tania Bhattacharyya:LinkedIn: Tania BhattacharyyaInstagram: @taniabhatWebsite: lumosmarketing.co

Being clear is being kind. Establishing clarity about where your organization is heading will help everyone understand what they should be doing and even who should stay or leave. Tania Bhattacharyya, founder of Lumos Marketing and host of the Campfire Circle podcast, defines vision and its importance in equitable and inclusive leadership. In this week's episode, we discuss: Advocacy vs. activism. Advocacy is about publicly supporting something, whereas activism focuses on bringing about positive social change. Organizations would be much more powerful if leaders moved from advocacy to activism. Defining and communicating a vision. Clearly establishing and sharing your ‘why' is a critical first step to transforming your organization, your team, and yourself.  The imperative of community. Activism isn't something you can do alone, and no one can do it for you. In order to affect change within an organization or team, it is necessary to build relationships with those involved and remember that everyone has individual potential.

Emily Grubman approaches naming with the big-picture thinking of a brand strategist, the linguistic lust of a writer, and the sober practicality of a trademark lawyer (although she's the first to tell you she's definitely not a lawyer). She partners with early-stage startups and “solopreneurs” to name and launch their vision. But it's not just about naming your business. As you get more visible as a thought leader and go-to voice, you may be naming new offers in your offer suite, fundraising campaigns, podcasts, books, and more. So, join us by the Campfire Circle today as Emily does a deep dive into naming strategy, providing practical advice on what to focus on and what to avoid. “The thing you're naming is new, but thinking as far ahead as possible helps you understand how you want it to grow and expand. You want to give it that longevity to flex as needed to encompass all the things you want to achieve with it.” - Emily Grubman We discussed:[02:00] How Emily became the naming guide she is today[04:47] The art and the science of naming[07:30] Getting into a naming mindset and what you should focus on[12:25] Naming as a pre-launch startup or independent consultant [26:54] Emily's process for naming her own consultancy, Title Case [30:10] The “do no harm” aspect of naming [36:55] Emily's big, dreamy vision To read a full transcript of the episode, visit: LUMOS MARKETINGResources from this episode:14 LinkedIn Content Prompts: Build your personal brand and thought leadership, show up for your target audience and grow your know-like-trust factor with your professional audience on LinkedIn.

Bernice Chao and Jessalin Lam are the co-authors of The Visibility Mindset, a book that explores a variety of stereotypes and barriers faced by Asian professionals, including the bamboo ceiling and the model minority myth. Their book provides straightforward and real-life leadership examples to help AAPI and allies navigate pitfalls and challenges as we move forward in growing our visibility, careers, and businesses. Join us by the Campfire Circle for this thoughtful conversation about their story, (which is a testament to the power of visibility), overcoming the unique challenges that AAPI face, the need for a like-minded community, and powerful advice on authoring your first book. “I always give the comparison of the very American idiom of “the squeaky wheel gets the grease”. I was taught “the loudest duck gets shot.” I was taught “the loudest bamboo gets cut” and “the tallest nail gets hammered down … so, the Visibility Mindset is really understanding: ‘Yes, we get you. We get that this is hard. We know that this isn't just you.

Ruchika Tulshyan is the author of Inclusion on Purpose: An Intersectional Approach to Creating a Culture of Belonging at Work. Along with Jodi-Ann Burey, she co-authored a paradigm-shifting article, “Stop Telling Women They Have Imposter Syndrome” for Harvard Business Review, which is one of their topmost 100 read articles in history. Best of all, people all over the world have shared that it changed their relationship with the concept of imposter syndrome!Join us by the Campfire Circle in this truly transformational episode to hear Ruchika's wisdom and practices to create a more inclusive world – one where people from underrepresented communities, especially girls and women of color, can thrive and take up space. “It's not that there's a lack of talent, ambition, or hard work. None of those things are lacking in communities that have been underrepresented. The biggest barriers that most of us face are certainly bias, racism, and sexism. But it's also being overlooked and underestimated.” - Ruchika TulshyanWe discussed:[03:23] Ruchika's story of becoming a guide in inclusion[14:00] Recognizing systems of oppression as the cause of imposter syndrome[20:49] Supporting entrepreneurs and executives who are women of color [22:56] Reframing mindset barriers around leadership and visibility [35:47] How to make inclusion a daily practice in your life [43:19] Ruchika's big dreamy vision of the futureTo read a full transcript of the episode, visit: LUMOS MARKETINGResources from this episode:Read Ruchika Tulshyan and Jodi-Ann Burey's paradigm-shifting Harvard Business Review article: Stop Telling Women They Have Imposter Syndrome.

After thirteen episodes of The Campfire Circle podcast, I noticed certain questions kept coming up in conversation with my guests.  I realized I'm actually asking about the key points of how they express their thought leadership. “Thought leadership [...] is where we consistently tap into our passion, experience, and credibility to build trust and community as we imagine and shape the future together for the better.” I'm dedicating this solo episode to those key points because if you ask yourself these same questions, you'll be well on your way to building your own thought leadership brand.–“I want to know about what lived experiences you endured and dreamed through and worked your way out of, because you now have a roadmap to share with other people.And the funny thing that you'll notice as you start sharing your personal brand story, is that it's about you but it's bigger than you. It contains the pieces that motivate other people to join you on behalf of your shared vision.” - MeIn this episode:[02:10] What is thought leadership and why does it matter?[05:00] Sharing your origin story (or what you've grown through)[10:15] Uncovering your unique, transformative framework[12:31] A vision directs your thought leadership[16:10] Nurturing a community instead of an audienceTo read a full transcript of the episode, visit: LUMOS MARKETINGResources from this episode:Podcast Episode 6: Reframing Thought Leadership as ‘Lived Leadership'14 LinkedIn Content Prompts: Build your personal brand and thought leadership, show up for your target audience and grow your know-like-trust factor with your professional audience on LinkedIn.

In this episode of The Campfire Circle, Tania talks to Sarabeth Berk, Creative Disruptor, Expert on Hybrid Professional Identity, Leader of Growth at Day One, Author of ‘More Than My Title,' and TEDx Speaker.As social impact leaders, we wear a WHOLE LOT of hats (which makes it hard to explain what we truly do!) In this episode, Sarabeth covers how you can discover your unique value and communicate your true professional identity as a hybrid professional. “A hybrid professional defies traditional job titles because they work at the intersections of disparate identities. Hybrids integrate their work identities together to create an entirely new identity. This becomes their truest professional identity.” Sarabeth's goal is to help people discover, articulate, and brand their hybridity. Being more than your job title helps maximize engagement, belonging, and of course - supercharging your personal brand! Everyone wins when we see each other for our full professional identity.In today's episode:[01:44] What is a hybrid professional? [06:18] Multiple professional identities and how to find the ones you truly are[09:30] How to fully describe who you are and what you do [11:40] The 4 questions to help you discover your professional identities[14:55] Sarabeth's framework to create your hybrid professional introduction or elevator pitch [16:26] Do you need a degree to validate your expertise?[21:25] Does the career ladder still exist?  What does that look like now?[25:18] Robert Kegan's five orders of consciousness[27:30] How would the world change if everybody would lean into their hybrid identity?Demystify Linkedin with TaniaThe people who can make your social impact dreams come true are on LinkedIn.

In this episode of The Campfire Circle, Tania talks to Rev. Adelia Sandoval, Spiritual Leader and Cultural Director for the Juaneño Band of Mission Indians.  She is a Ceremonial Leader, Song Keeper, Wisdom Holder, Tribal Teacher, and Healer. As she learned the stories and ways from her teachers, she also learned she didn't have to “save the tribe” … she just had to become more of herself. Sharing our stories creates a ripple effect, and even if one person hears our story and does something different because of it, well, then we just changed the trajectory of the world.
