In this inspiring episode of the Emory University series on Nurse Converse, host Dr. Everett Moss II, CRNA, sits down with three powerful voices from the Emory University School of Nursing—Dr. Beth Ann Swan, Dr. Shawana Moore, and recent graduate Sofi Igyan—to unpack one of the most misunderstood words in nursing: power.Together, they challenge the idea that power is something loud, aggressive, or purely positional. Instead, they explore power as the ability to influence change, whether you're an academic leader, an advanced practice nurse, or a new graduate stepping into the profession for the first time.Listeners will hear:Why power is deeply personal and often situational—shifting with the room you're in, the role you hold, and how others perceive you.How humility and silence can be profound sources of strength, including the concept of the “silent storm” and the impact of knowing when not to speak.The student and new-graduate perspective on power—how embracing agency, mentorship, and opportunities can transform the nursing school and early-career experience.The role of mentorship in cultivating influence and the responsibility to lift others as you rise.How storytelling and social media can serve as powerful platforms when nurses share lived experiences and credible information.Practical advice for nurses at every stage—from flowing like water through challenges, to embracing new opportunities, to navigating imposter syndrome.From redefining influence to owning your voice at any stage of a career, this conversation highlights the many forms of power nurses hold—and how harnessing that power can shape both individual careers and the future of the profession.>>8 Keys to Cultivating Power in Your Nursing CareerJump Ahead to Listen: [00:02:19] Understanding power and influence in nursing [00:04:43] Navigating personal power and professional presence [00:10:15] Influence within nursing's power structures [00:14:32] Elevating student confidence and empowerment [00:20:17] How nursing students shape conversations online [00:21:24] Examining influencers and credibility in nursing [00:26:01] Storytelling as a catalyst for impact [00:30:09] Mentorship as a foundation for future leaders [00:37:01] Staying open to unexpected opportunities [00:40:05] Adapting and “flowing like water” in your career [00:42:15] Growth through professional and personal challenges [00:47:00] Books and ideas that inspire empowered nursing practice For more information, full transcript and videos visit Nurse.org/podcastJoin our newsletter at nurse.org/joinInstagram: @nurse_orgTikTok: @nurse.orgFacebook: @nurse.orgYouTube: Nurse.org

Check out my Free Brainstorming Workshop: https://mightyartisan.com/worldbuilding Learn to silence your inner critic. Ignite creative ideas. And watch a live demo of these techniques in action. Are you dragging around old projects, outdated goals, and beliefs about success that are actually holding you back? Most artists are trapped by invisible baggage they don't even recognize. In this episode, we explore "artistic bankruptcy" - the practice of consciously releasing everything that no longer serves your creative journey. From obvious goals you know you should abandon to deep-seated beliefs about what makes a "real artist," we uncover the hidden forces driving your decisions. We dive deep into the Identity Trap - how your sense of who you are as an artist can either propel you forward or keep you stuck on a treadmill going nowhere. Through real examples and a practical 4-pillar framework, you'll learn to identify the artistic baggage weighing you down.

Send us a textWe have all been there: You are handed a project, you feel out of your depth, and you are convinced everyone else knows exactly what they are doing. On this week's episode, Scott and Mike tackle Imposter Syndrome head-on, using a disastrous DIY plumbing story involving an angle grinder and a shower handle as the perfect metaphor for professional growth.The duo discusses why being an "expert" doesn't mean knowing everything—it means knowing who to ask and being willing to figure it out. They break down the "7 Red Lines" theory, Scott introduces his concept of the "Working Wheel" regarding willingness to change, and they offer three practical steps to get out of your own head and start trusting your own expertise.Key Takeaways:The "Expert" Trap: Referencing the viral "The Expert" YouTube sketch, the hosts discuss how sales reps are often asked to do the impossible (like drawing transparent red lines). True expertise isn't magic; it's creativity under pressure.Scott's 3 Steps to Beat Imposter Syndrome:Stack Your Wins: Write down your successes. When you see them on paper, it is harder to convince yourself you are a fraud.Progress vs. Perfection: Stop comparing your internal struggles to someone else's external highlights. You are not the worst salesperson ever; you are just learning.Collaborate to Validate: Talk to other pros. You will quickly realize they aren't "superhuman"—they just have different experiences (or a blowtorch and lubricating oil).The Working Wheel: Career longevity comes down to a willingness to try new things. If you stop trying, the wheel stops turning.Curiosity > Intelligence: You don't have to be the smartest person in the room. You just have to be the most curious and the most prepared.Support the showScott SchlofmanMike Williams - Cell 801-635-7773 #sales #podcast #customerfirst #relationships #success #pipeline #funnel #sales success #selling #salescoach

What if the reason you feel stuck in your Customer Success career has nothing to do with your performance and everything to do with the path you're blindly following? On today's episode, I'm unpacking the uncomfortable truth about traditional CS career paths and why doing “the next logical step” can quietly derail your growth, happiness, and earning potential. We'll talk about why promotions that look good on paper can feel miserable in real life, how following the crowd leads to boring roles and regret, and the simple mindset shift that changes how you make career decisions inside Customer Success.By the end of this episode, you'll walk away with a completely new way to think about success in your Customer Success career, one that's built around what you're actually good at, what you enjoy, and where you want to end up, not what everyone else is doing. If you've ever felt pressure to go enterprise, become a CSM, or say yes just because it's “the path,” this conversation will give you clarity, confidence, and permission to choose differently.3:05 – Why Blindly Following a Career Path Can Lead to Burnout and Missed Potential5:41 – How Peer Pressure (and ‘Default' Decisions) Steer You Off-Course8:33 – Why Enterprise CSM Isn't Automatically the Next Best Step15:56 – The Power of Defining Your Own Success in Customer Success (and Knowing You Have Choices)22:00 – How Tech Touch Customer Success Offers Rapid Growth and Thought Leadership Potential28:12 – The One Interview Question That Reveals If a Future Manager Is There by Choice

Send us a textHave you ever looked around the sales floor, watched a top performer, and thought, "I need to do exactly what they are doing"? You try to copy their jokes, their cadence, or their spreadsheet obsession, only to find it feels clunky and awkward. On this week's episode, Scott and Mike discuss why trying to be someone else is the fastest way to set off a prospect's "BS alarm."Instead of imitation, the duo argues for adaptation. The goal isn't to become the person next to you; it's to identify your own unique "Superpower"—a mix of self-awareness and feedback—and lean into it. Whether you are a "spreadsheet person" or a "storyteller," your success comes from consistency and authenticity, not mimicry.Key Takeaways:The Danger of Imitation: While it is good to want to improve, trying to change your fundamental personality to match a peer usually fails because it lacks genuineness.Defining Your Superpower: Your superpower is often identified through external feedback—what do people thank you for doing well? It requires the self-awareness to separate your daily "whirlwind" tasks from your core strengths.The "Friends" Theory of Sales: You can't sell to Joey the same way you sell to Chandler. A great sales rep reads the room and adapts their delivery without changing their core process.Scott's 4-Step Guide to Authentic Sales:Stay in your lane: Don't get distracted by how others sell.Play to your superpower: Know what you are best at and maximize it.Adapt without imitating: Learn from mentors, but put their tactics into your own voice.Consistency always wins: Once you find a process that fits your style, stick to it.Listener Challenge: Mike leaves us on a cliffhanger this week: If self-awareness and strength are superpowers, what is the opposite of a superpower?

What if the fastest way to grow your career isn't a straight climb but a series of smart, sideways moves that sharpen your empathy and judgment?  In this episode, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Catherine Wong, COO and CPO at Entrata, to unpack how she scales products and people by shaping cultures where every voice is invited, and the best ideas surface early. From engineering during the dot-com downturn to leading global teams through acquisitions and hypergrowth, Catherine shares the habits that turn uncertainty into momentum: practice your voice, ask for real feedback, and reward behaviors that build trust.We go deep on how product and operations intersect when you're building an operating system for real estate. Catherine explains why diverse perspectives improve outcomes and how leaders can intentionally signal what matters by recognizing thoughtful execution, not just loud opinions. Her take on the future of work is refreshingly actionable: AI changes the “how,” not the “why.” Whether you specialize or stay broad, treat curiosity like a muscle. Run small experiments, unlearn out-of-date tactics, and stay anchored to clear business outcomes.You'll hear practical frameworks for deciding under ambiguity. widen inputs, seek data, welcome dissent, and iterate with agility. Catherine also breaks down visibility tactics for women who are competent but overlooked: volunteer for updates, lead slices of complex projects, and request precise post-meeting feedback. Her story of integrating a UK acquisition while battling imposter syndrome reveals a simple truth: courage plus clarity compounds into trust, scope, and impact.If you care about culture design, product leadership, AI fluency, and building a resilient career in tech, this conversation is a blueprint you can use today. Follow along, share it with a friend who needs a nudge, and subscribe to get more candid, practical conversations. Loved this one?

Erica Malbon is the co-founder of Malbon Golf—the game-changing, fashionable golfwear and lifestyle brand that seeks to break tradition by inviting anyone and everyone to enjoy what she calls the “greatest game on Earth.” Malbon Golf began as an Instagram mood board created by her husband, a longtime golf enthusiast. When the couple decided to make Malbon into a full-fledged brand, Erica didn't have any experience in the sports or retail industry. That said, she had developed an entrepreneurial spirit from her time as co-founder of her first venture, The Now, an L.A.-based massage business that offers luxury spa treatments at an affordable price point. Having learned firsthand what it takes to run both the operational and creative sides of a company, Erica was more than prepared to reimagine golfwear for a new generation and create a brand with a mission to make the sport more accessible. Since launching in 2017, Malbon has amassed a community of golf lovers that includes veteran fans of the sport, professional athletes, and celebrities like Justin Bieber. And they've expanded their brand around the world with locations in China, South Korea, and the Philippines.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Melanie Bender is the founder and CEO of Lore, a new fragrance brand that creates entire worlds in every bottle. Before becoming a leader in the beauty industry, Bender initially thought she'd enter the world of STEM. In college, she studied aerospace engineering and environmental science before becoming an environmental planner in her home state of Hawai'i. But her love for fashion and beauty led her to New York. It was there that she started a career that would make her an expert in every part of the process of brand-building—from PR to product development to marketing. Her natural talent and reputation led her to help grow beauty brands Versed and Merit before she was tapped to serve as the CEO of Hailey Bieber's Rhode. But she never abandoned what she learned when she studied STEM. She often credits the scientific method as the formula to entrepreneurial success that's gotten her to where she is today. Now, after more than a decade of building businesses across the beauty industry and leading them to new heights, Melanie's launched her own with Lore—her fragrance line that debuted at Sephora this year.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Celia Muñoz is the founder of La Coqueta, a childrenswear brand that infuses traditional Spanish craftsmanship and culture into beautiful designs for kids. Before Muñoz dreamed up the idea for her brand, she studied psychology and then moved from her native Spain to London post-grad, working several jobs across industries—from luxury retail to headhunting. She went back to school to get her master's in mental health while growing her family, but her dream for a kids' fashion brand quickly took over. With no experience in design or business, she launched the brand in 2013. La Coqueta (meaning “well-groomed”) was greeted warmly by families who fell in love with the brand for its high-quality garments, and things only continued to take off after Prince Louis of the Royal Family (son of Prince William and Princess Kate) was spotted wearing a La Coqueta original. Today, the brand continues to grow and expand its reach with new locations in the U.S.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
