Impact of Generative AI on Equity, Diversity and Inclusion   One of the most telling things about output from Generative AI is the inevitable stereotyping that is produced. Go to Mid Journey and ask it to generate images of doctors, and guess what type of images come up? Now try the same with nurses. Or hunter gatherers. Or Fireman. Or Jesus for that matter. The point is that GAI is trained on historical data that is already out there, and will l   We will discuss:   - AI Hallucinations - Dangerous knowledge made more accessible - Lack of equivocation - everything is plausibly true - Death of the Internet (we stop searching) - Copy right / Copy wrong - Inevitable rise of spam - End of trust   And what is the ethical AND practical the way forward for recruiters in the post ChatGPT world?   We're with Devoreaux Walton, Diversity Sourcing Consultant (IBM), Bas van de Haterd, Founder (Digitaal-Werven) & Daniela Felletti, Founder (Talents Connection)     Ep196 is sponsored by our buddies Metaview Use the power of AI to make onerous interview note-taking a thing of the past.   Get automatic, AI-generated interview notes from Metaview, saving you hours of time and allowing you to focus on high-quality interactions with candidates.

Devoreaux Walton is an author, confidence coach, and YouTube personality who serves as the CEO and Founder at The Modern Lady, a lifestyle company that teaches women worldwide how to elevate their lives with elegance and poise. Her book Je Ne Sais Quoi offers tips on style, grooming, etiquette, and attitude. New York Times bestselling author Jennifer L. Scott wrote, “In a world where etiquette and manners seem to have gone extinct, Devoreaux Walton’s voice is sorely needed.” Stephen Harrison: So what quote are we chatting about today? Devoreaux Walton: Today’s quote is from the famous Maya Angelou. “Do the best you can until you know better. Then when you know better, do better.” Such a good quote! Maya Angelou was an American poet, memoirist, and civil rights activist. She wrote seven autobiographical novels, including I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings. You mentioned before the interview that Angelou is a hero of yours? Absolutely. I learned her works in middle school and high school English class. I participated in a pageant when I was younger, and for the pageant portion, I acted out one of her most famous poems “Phenomenal Woman.” I love how inspiriting Maya Angelou was. Her work doesn’t speak to just one particular era or decade. It really transcends the boundary of time. You’re an elegance expert and confidence coach. How did your past experiences lead you to that profession? Several years ago in 2014, I got to a point in my life where I felt stuck in a rut. I was just extremely unhappy in my career, in my personal life, in my social life. I felt like I had no sense of style or presence or gracefulness at all. But I had this idea of the woman I wanted to be. I just had this vision for myself to be polished and poised. And that was not where I was at that particular time! [laugh] I started to make investments in myself through resources, reading books, hiring life coaches, going to therapy, exercising, getting a personal trainer, and sitting down to have some deep time for reflection. I asked myself some tough questions in terms of what I wanted my future to look like, and who I wanted to be, and how I wanted to carry myself. I spent the time doing the work to peel back the layers—the baggage, frustration, and fear. I decided to put that to the side, to live in courage and confidence. Once I was able to transform, I started to share who I was, once I was on the other side: I was this stylish and charismatic person. I loved being charming and meeting new people. I started a blog as an expression to share my wardrobe and my personal style. That evolved into sharing those ideas for other women to help make transformations in their lives. The quote is, “Do the best you can until you know better. Then when you know better, do better.” Can you think of an experience where you learned to do better? I was in an agency environment in my career in 2014 and 2015. At the time, I didn’t really know how to conduct a meeting properly and efficiently. I wasn’t necessarily being professional in terms of the small nuances that make a world of difference: the emails, the setup for the actual meetings, and the agenda. After getting some feedback from one of my team leads, I started leaning into the area where I knew I had a weakness at that particular time. Instead of thinking about it as a weakness, I thought of it as an area for improvement. The impact of developing those soft skills was that instead of pitching to ten clients, and maybe only getting one new contract, we would pitch ten clients and get nine out of ten. And that’s just one small example of the benefits of etiquette and being able to carry yourself with a strong social presence. How do you go about helping your clients with a transformation? I know part of it has to do with wardrobe. And Maya Angelou was not only a Civil Rights leader and author, but a fashion leader during the 50’s and 60’s. I think that most women come to me, and, eight times out of ten, they’re going to say, “My wardrobe is a disaster. Help me hit the reset button.” And my response every time is, “We will get to your wardrobe, but we’ve gotta start with the mindset first.” What I do, I call confidence coaching. But it really is an intersection of life coaching, personal styling, and charm school. Essentially, instead of working on just one area, just your wardrobe, or just your mindset, or just your social presence, I work on everything with my clients because I find that these women need it. It starts with being able to master the mindset, thoughts, the anxiety, the fears, the negative emotions, and really being able to reposition and be very intentional in the actions and the thoughts that we are taking. That creates the foundation for this confident life. The second layer after we’ve done a lot of the internal work is working on the external. That’s the wardrobe phase. I want to make sure that every woman is able to define the type of perception that others will have of her. If I want people to know me as being bold and courageous, that’s a different perception from being quirky or artistic or creative. But first I want to make sure we’re clear on defining that personality so that we can build an ideal wardrobe for their specific needs. A lot of women that just get dressed up, and wear an outfit to impress other people, but they don’t even feel good in what they’re wearing—there’s a huge disconnect. In that situation, you’re lacking confidence. It’s important to have that level authenticity with what you’re wearing because it certainly changes how you feel. Most of the women that come to me define themselves as introverts. So they are not comfortable in social situations. In fact, they typically avoid them. They can do it personally, and get by. But professionally, you have to be assertive at some level in order to be really successful, regardless of what industry you’re in. By leaning into these communication strategies and principles, you can walk into an event where you may not know anyone. Instead of being frightened or feeling uncomfortable, you’re at ease enough to enjoy the moments. You can make connections at those events that can open up doors of opportunity.         There was a fashion psychology study done back in the 1960s, 1970s. A gentleman that was wearing a business suit. Before the crossing signal came on, he crossed the street, and several people followed him. The same men changed into a different outfit—the kind that an interior or home painter would wear, with paint stains, and overalls, and grungy dirty work boots. This time the he crossed the street before the crossing signal came on and nobody followed him. I imagine there are some people who think that thinking a lot about etiquette, elegance, and how you dress is a very old-fashioned concept. What would you say to someone who thinks that this mode of thinking is out-of-date? I love that thought, because it challenges the value of what I do! But what I find when people don’t pay attention to the little details like how they’re looking and how they’re showing up—it shows. People will pick up on that lack of confidence. We are definitely seeing a decline in the quality of interactions in person. [Note: This was recorded before the COVID-19 pandemic.] It will definitely be interesting to see what the world looks like 20 to 40 years from now, whether or not etiquette will be implemented further or whether we’ll have no sense of protocol at all. At the same time, I think that some timeless life principles like respect, kindness, and courtesy—they’re never going to go away. There’s nobody in the world that feels good being disrespectful. But it feels good doing random acts of kindness, like holding the door for someone with lots of bags. That is something that is probably never going to go away. Do you think that society will continue to get more casual, or will it become more formal? I think about the rise of the tech industry 20, 30 years ago and how casual things have become. People can work from home. Or if they go into the office, they can wear flip-flops, shorts, and tank-tops. Our modern culture is so very casual and that has carried over into every protocol of style and dress. In the short-term, I think that things will continue to be more casual. People are sharing intimate and casual details of their life on social media platforms like Snapchat and Instagram. But at some point in the next 50 years or less, my hypothesis is that style will shift back into being more conservative. Because at some point, things are going to get so out of control that we’re gonna have to bring back structure and rules. Guidelines and structure around how we are conducting business and living life. You mentioned Instagram. What tips do you think Maya Angelou might have about the presentation of self on a platform like Instagram? That’s a great question. It’s easy for us to “shoot from the hip” when we post something online. On social media you can hide behind a screen. But another favorite quote from Maya Angelou is “people will forget what you’ve said […] but they will never forget the way you made them feel.” What’s critical for someone who wants to be classy or elegant is to be very intentional. You can’t just sit idly and let any thought cross your mind. You have to be intentional so that it’s positive, inspiring, encouraging, motivational, helping you drive to where you’re wanting to be. I think that would be my number one tip for anyone wanting to be classy on social media: to be very purposeful and intentional about it. Think about people who have this sense of elegance—Princess Diana, Maya Angelou, Audrey Hepburn, and First Lady Michelle Obama. There are so many women that have been some really amazing, inspirational examples that show us the way. And it’s always a choice. The quote again is, “Do the best you can until you know better. Then when you know better, do better.” While I like this quote, sometimes this idea of continuous personal improvement is discouraging. We talked about this recently in the interview with Svend Brinkmann. What would you say to someone who finds this constant personal improvement exhausting? I think we all have the beautiful freedom to create the lives that we want to have. And so the idea of continuous learning can look different for anyone: For some it might be a hobby, learning a new language, or exploring a passion. Your personal development and personal growth journey should be just that—it should be personal. You have the opportunity to create it in a way that will help you feel elevated. The really beautiful thing is that we have all the cards stacked in our favor. We have the choice to create the personal growth journey that’s best going to serve us. That’s one important thing in your life: to let go of everything that doesn’t serve you. Focus your time and your energy in your life on the things that do serve you. Because you’ll be so much more energetic and vibrant and full of life when you’re able to be energized by all the things around you.

Welcome to episode 12 of ‘Happiness from Within’. In today’s episode I talk to Devoreaux Walton, founder of The Modern Lady, a coaching business that empowers women to live their best life through consulting, classes and courses. Devoreaux grew up in Atlanta, Georgia, recently published a book and has several courses to help empower women be the best version of themselves.   Key takeaways: It’s easy for life to sometimes take over Having role models is one secret to success Social media plays a much more negative role in our lives nowadays It’s important to focus on the good and not just what you want to change about yourself The mindset is the foundation of confidence When you feel your best, you will perform at your best Growing up, Devoreaux had two role models who played a big role in her life: her 4th grade teacher and her grandmother. She says these role models are who gave her the confidence and inspiration to become a better person everyday. After suffering from anorexia and low self-esteem, Devoreaux understood how much of a downward spiral focusing on your flaws can be.  Since then she has created strategies and exercises to fuel her fire and help other women feel confident and comfortable with their surroundings. An example exercise is to write positive affirmations of oneself on a piece of paper. Another one is to journal every day to reflect on one’s own emotions and thoughts. Many women come to her thinking it’s their wardrobe they want to enhance, but Devoreaux explains that it all starts with the mindset. Fashion psychology plays a big role in how you feel, because as Devoreaux says: ‘When you feel the best, you will perform the best’ Devoreaux loves working with women from all around the world and seeing the impact she has with her consulting and coaching. She creates mood boards, personalizes programmes and helps women connect with each other through her community. Through her courses and coaching she believes women can learn how to leverage their full potential and be the person they really want to be.   Links: Devoreaux’s website: https://themodernlady.com/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCoBK1mpbaYJ8NRORa7oNo5Q?sub_confirmation=1 https://www.instagram.com/devoreauxwalton/ Devoreaux’s book: https://www.shop.booklogix.com/Je-Ne-Sais-Quoi-20918.htm The Cosby Show: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0086687/ Big Brothers Big Sisters: http://www.bbbsi.org/   Connect with Janet Prado Join JANET’S FREE “Weekly Motivation” Email List if You Are Looking for That “Happiness From Within” & Wanna Get Epic & Inspiring Emails Weekly Sign up FREE Here ==> http://bit.ly/2QkwSoy Transform Your Water Auro Liquid Gold http://bit.ly/2ufkJZx Grab Your Free Meditation Audio https://apple.co/37CbhxT Grab Your Free PDF 7 Steps To Find Happiness Now http://bit.ly/35eJRwg Connect with Janet Prado YouTube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCXCnqsIP69NGlsKzbfbucXg Connect with Janet on Instagram www.instagram.com/happinessfromwithinnow

To learn more please visit www.TheModernLady.com   Nicole Walker’s Interview Commentary I really enjoyed this interview with Devoreaux, and I hope you did as well. I agree with Devoreaux’s viewpoint of it being frightening, yet necessary to step outside of our comfort zone. When we step outside of our comfort zone, we allow ourselves to grow personally and professionally. As Devoreaux mentioned, stepping outside of our comfort zone is where the magic happens. IF we are looking to achieve optimal performance, THEN we must step outside of our comfort zone. Learning to get comfortable being uncomfortable is what successful leaders do. A quote by Neal Donald Walsch reads, “life begins at the end of your comfort zone”. I admire Devoreaux’s decision to stand up for the underdog as it shows her care and compassion for those around her. Being a compassionate leader is so important. I especially admire how Devoreaux exhibited this trait while growing up and ended up working in a field where she is still standing up for those that need her. Choosing to work with women who feel less than an undeserving of love is needed and I'm glad to see Devoreaux leading in this capacity. We all have power and  must choose whether to use our power for good or bad. Devoreaux decided to use her power for good by helping others. I can relate to Devereaux being the queen of lists as I am the same. I love lists as they help me to stay organized and track my progress. Putting a check next to completed items on my list soothes my soul, as I am a results oriented individual. Lists help to make goals and aspirations tangible and within reach. Breaking down goals into tasks and using lists to plan those tasks is essential for success. List gives you direction and helps to relieve stress, further proving why lists are important for progress. If you need direction and want to relieve stress, like me, then using lists is the way to go. Nicole Walker’s Takeaway of the Week Devoreaux mentioned the importance of listening more than you speak, in an effort to be mindful of not pushing your own agenda. As Devoreaux suggested, we should tailor our leadership to what others are seeking and not be self serving. As Devoreaux stated, we must be open minded and not overlook this simple task. I will make it my business to listen more and speak less, as I aim to be more mindful of others. I do not want to be self serving, and I know this is a must to reach this goal. I care about helping others and realize that I must listen to successfully do so. I have to listen to the needs of others above my personal desires. A quote by Doug Larson reads, “wisdom is the reward you get for a lifetime of listening when you'd preferred to talk”. Nicole Walker’s Leadership Challenge of the Week My leadership challenge for you is to think about the one thing you can take away from this episode and adopted for your life. I know it's hard to absorb too much information at one time and it's even harder to try and implement to make changes at once. When I attend a training or listen to podcasts, I aim to walk away with at least one thing that stuck out to me and one way that I can change as a result. I challenge you to do the same. If you decide to take me up on my challenge, I would love to know about your key takeaway, if you care to share please go to the She Leads Podcast Discussion Group on Facebook and leave your comment under the Takeaway Thursday post or Season 4, Episode 6.

What does confidence have to do with reaching your potential? What’s one secret you need to know to live more confidently today? And how does your wardrobe impact how others respond to you? Devoreaux Walton, an author and confidence coach, joins me as we talk about confidence, self-talk, and your wardrobe.  While we don’t see eye-to-eye on everything we talk, we still collaborate and connect, and respect the heck out of each other! If your confidence needs a boost and you don’t know where to start, listen to Devoreaux’s wisdom.   Devoreaux’s Journey from Feeling Stuck to Living with Confidence In 2014, Devoreaux was frustrated. She felt stuck working at a job she didn’t enjoy. She wanted to be confident and charismatic, but she wasn’t. Then she discovered counseling and therapy then she hired a life coach and audited her closet. Through her experience, she discovered “insider secrets” to become confident in who you are.  One insider secret is to be aware of your mindset and to understand the power of self-talk.  We all have lots of thoughts throughout the day with the majority being negative. Being self-aware of the thoughts you’re thinking can shift the focus of the negative and toward the positive. But how do you stop the negative self-talk? Focus on gratitude. Ask yourself, “What’s the best-case scenario?” Focus on the good that can happen.  What happens when the best-case scenario doesn’t happen? Remember to control what you can control, which is what you do, say, and think. When the outcome doesn’t go your way, think through what went well and what could be improved for next time. Honor yourself for what you did well and then evaluate what could go better the next time. How does your wardrobe impact your confidence? There’s a massive impact between clothing and confidence. How you dress impacts how others view you and how you view yourself. The response you get from people when you wear yoga pants will be a different response than when you wear a suit. After a difficult emotional time, dressing in a way that makes you feel confident and taking good care of yourself will help you feel more empowered.   Spending time the night before can make a world of difference in having a successful tomorrow. What if you’re multi-faceted and you’re unsure what image you want to show the world? There are times and places for everything. In general, it’s possible to have a consistent theme with your colors, fabrics and textures no matter what roles you play.   So what is Devoreaux’s Style? Her style has evolved because style is all about continuous improvement. We’re all changing and growing. It’s about a journey and enjoying the present moment.   Three to four years ago, Devoreaux’s style was more Americana, e.g. J. Crew and Ralph Lauren. Now, she prefers timeless elegance like Talbots, St. John, and Chanel. Her wardrobe has really shrunk. She encourages us to get rid of things that don’t fit, that we haven’t worn in a while, and aren’t respectful to our bodies. Audit your closet and maximize the essentials in your wardrobe. Devoreaux believes that women should always cover their derrieres, bosoms, and mid-sections. I don’t agree with this. But that’s okay!
