Podcasts about fierce feminine leadership

Feminine leadership is authentically leading from who you are as a woman, with fierce boundaries, clear communication, and strong influence. It's adding value being who you are with your gifts and talents, having a seat at the table. You offer your voice, creativity, ideas and solutions. You don't run around work hard trying to prove yourself and your worth. You're respected for who you are.

Interview Highlights Eleanor was raised with high expectations, her parents had them for her and in turn she had them for herself. Migrating from the Fuji Islands as a young girl to rural Canada, she often felt she did not belong because she was different from the other children. This caused Eleanor to struggle with her identity until she decided to find home and belonging within herself. Eleanor became aware of an amazing opportunity that would change the course of her life when she was a young teenager, and she went after it like her life depended on it. She believed she could and so she did! Eleanor has shown that if we fearlessly and relentlessly pursue our dreams, then anything is possible. Even if we lose the drive that we innately have as a young person, we can go back and reclaim our lives to create the destiny we deserve. Over time Eleanor realized she had an issue with people pleasing because she wanted everyone to like her. As a result of this, she spent countless hours trying to figure out how she could please the masses. Unfortunately, this pursuit caused her to get further and further away from her true self, until she realized and accepted that she could not please everyone. Eleanor had to figure out what success meant to her, and be okay with knowing that everyone may not feel the same. By doing this Eleanor regained her power and is now able to show up unapologetically and authentically. Check out Eleanor’s interview to learn more. “Be Empowered and Empower On” –Nicole Walker

I’ve heard time and time again from so many of you that you’re seeing this time as a positive set up for what’s next. You’re ready to start implementing the changes you’ve decided you want to make and create something new from the ashes. This is called taking bold action and it’s about moving forward based on what you know to be true. In the final part of this series, I’m talking about facing the fears that are standing in the way of you and your bold action. We become entrepreneurs because we desire freedom, but then fear creeps in and prevents up from exercising that freedom. Keep Reading >> Fears are always going to exist, but if we never face them we’ll always be afraid. I’ve noticed that when I’m avoiding looking at something, it’s typically because there’s unexplored fear there. And it’s holding me back from taking bold action. In today’s episode, I’m sharing how you can face your fears and get clear on what you want. I want to encourage you to face your fears, work through them, and find the clarity you need to move forward. Who run this mother? You do. And one more thing. Although this is the final episode of Fierce Feminine Leadership, tune in next week for the very first episode of my new podcast, Power Presence Position!

This pandemic has created a big opportunity for growth. Both in your business and internally. But, for many women entrepreneurs, we’re stuck in this in-between time. Things are not like before, but they also aren’t the new normal yet. This is Part 1 of my four-part series, The Big Pivot. Throughout this series, I will be giving you insights and guidance on managing your mindset during this time and showing up for your business. To start, I encourage you to embrace this time as an opportunity to take stock. Keep Reading >> We don’t have the distractions of pre-pandemic times to focus on.

Are you wondering if it’s really worth it to record a podcast, film a video, or write a blog post that no one sees or hears? Your time is valuable, and this can be frustrating. But, my answer is unequivocally 100% yes. Consistency is the oatmeal-flavored solution to your audience-growing goal. It’s not flashy, it’s not glamorous. Most entrepreneurs ignore it (mistakenly). But to have a large audience that tunes into your content, you need to be consistent. Keep Reading >> Back when I was a newspaper journalist, I had to produce a story a day. That’s a lot of content production! It trained me to show up constantly, clarify my voice, and discover my interests. Even if what you produce at the beginning isn’t great, it’s important. Today, I explain how to build the habits of consistency so you can grow your audience. That’s the real secret behind your role models’ success. Rachel Hollis, Katie Couric, and Oprah Winfrey all show up consistently with value. I also share why not showing up consistently makes your audience feel like they’re married to an emotionally unavailable spouse. Today on the Fierce Feminine Leadership Podcast: Why your content isn’t getting the engagement or reach that you want. Why it’s an opportunity to create like no one's watching when you first start. How Katie Couric, Rachel Hollis, Oprah, James Clear, and Marie Forleo show up consistently. That there truly is no such thing as an overnight success. My top tips for mastering the habit of consistency. How to choose the perfect medium for your content.

“What do you think of this idea?” Often in business, we as leaders ask our team for input on our proudest ideas before we have looked in the mirror and asked ourselves the very same question.

I discuss how limiting beliefs surrounding topics such as money, commitments, and whether to engage with the details can impact your business as well as how you can take your power back.

Are you uncomfortable being the spokesperson or being the person that speaks out? Or are you somebody who loves to perform but your message is not always effective? This week’s episode is for both of these types of people. On the show, our guest will be covering how to embrace the spotlight and have the ability to speak with power and poise.   Eleanor Beaton is an internationally-recognized expert in women’s leadership and an advisor to growth-oriented women entrepreneurs. She currently sits on the board of directors of two Canadian venture capital organizations and is both a keynote speaker and podcast host of her own show, Fierce Feminine Leadership.   Eleanor started her career as a journalist interviewing very high-performing executives of fast-growing companies. In that journey, she received first-hand experience on what these executives were doing and what made them successful. At the time, there were not as many women in these C-suite seats, and this made Eleanor curious as to why that was.   For many people, being in the spotlight is terrifying. It can be so easy to just sit in the backseat and let the ‘experts’ take control but as entrepreneurs, you can’t do that. Even to show up day after day in the media spotlight can be hard, but by keeping your eye on your BHAG and what you’re trying to achieve, you can quickly see why it’s important to step into that light in order to share your mission with the world without getting burned out.   The power of story is still more relevant than ever. When you step into the spotlight with great stories, people remember you and it can build connections that transcend beyond education, experience, or the life achievements your audience has. This is how you prevent your message from falling flat once you’re in the spotlight.   Interview Links: Eleanorbeaton.com Eleanorbeatonpodcast.com The7virtues.com   Resources: Scaling Up Workshop: Interested in attending one of our workshops?

Bold, confident, self-assured - these are some of the many characteristics of an empowered female entrepreneur. But even these inspiring women cannot escape the inevitability of experiencing unstable and challenging times as a leader. During these turbulent times, many fall into the trap of seeking outside approval while salvaging the situation through willpower alone. Sadly, these leaders end up doing the exact opposite of the very thing they should have done in the first place, which is to insource approval and outsource willpower. Keep Reading >> Today, I share the tool I developed that helps female entrepreneurs of all levels who are going through crises in leadership - insourcing approval and outsourcing willpower. I dive into the negative effects of outsourcing approval and the essential skills you fail to learn when you focus on letting others’ opinions be a defining factor when making decisions. I also share why insourcing willpower is not enough to create the results you want and how you can outsource it, instead, to make sure you have the bandwidth to make the decisions that matter the most.   “When we begin outsourcing approval as a general M.O. in our lives - it creates a crisis of leadership. It becomes an absence of accountability.”- Eleanor Beaton     Today on the Fierce Feminine Leadership Podcast: The relationship between credibility and approval. How you could be slowing your own progress. What it looks like to outsource approval. Why you may doubt yourself when it’s time to make decisions. How I personally saw and experienced the downside of outsourcing approval and insourcing willpower. A milestone that marked the end of the transference of authority in my life and the start of a new, liberating chapter. How to identify where you’re outsourcing approval. The two things that help you insource approval.    Join the Exclusive Incubator Program! Are you ready to build, leverage, and scale your business to the next level?
