http://www.sherylkline.com/blogIn the latest Fearless Female Leadership interview, I had the privilege of speaking with Tamesa Rogers, Chief People Officer, about her journey and the power of leaning into what scares you. This was Tamesa's first podcast interview, and she shared incredible insights on overcoming fear, building resilience, and redefining success.Tamesa's leadership journey was shaped early on when she started kindergarten mid-year, feeling like an outsider. This experience instilled in her both determination and empathy, making her a leader who actively seeks to ensure others feel included and valued. She believes that fostering a sense of belonging translates directly to organizational success.When asked about being one of the few women—or sometimes the only woman—in executive spaces, Tamesa credited her preparation and grit. She emphasized that confidence stems from knowing you are qualified and refusing to let fear dictate your actions. She encourages self-reflection, questioning negative thoughts, and ensuring that doubts are based on facts rather than insecurity.Tamesa also discussed the importance of embracing uncertainty. After leaving her last role without a set plan, she took time to rest, travel, and reflect—something she believes many high-performing leaders overlook. This period of rest ultimately reignited her passion and helped her define what she truly wanted next.Key takeaways from the interview:- 0:01:22 – Tamesa's early experience of feeling like an outsider in kindergarten helped shape her compassion and leadership approach.- 0:05:09 – Confidence is built on preparation, determination, and refusing to let fear hold you back.- 0:06:34 – Self-doubt should be examined and challenged—are your fears based on fact, or are they limiting beliefs?- 0:08:02 – Taking time to rest and reset can be just as productive as action; clarity often comes from stillness.- 0:14:23 – Networking and stepping outside of comfort zones can be daunting, but pushing through fear leads to unexpected opportunities.- 0:17:39 – The key to overcoming fear is preparation, understanding the "rules of the game," and playing to win.Tamesa is now looking for her next opportunity—one where she can drive meaningful change, build strong relationships, and solve complex problems.If Tamesa's story resonated with you, I'd love to hear yours. Let's connect and explore how you can apply these principles to your leadership journey.

The Trump administration is dismantling DEI within the federal workforce and ESG is slowly morphing into one of the most irritating terms in corporate governance. But conservatives, sensing there may be more work yet to do, might wonder if there is anything they can do individually to help end these discriminatory and counter-productive policies once and for all. Turns out, there is. A new effort called Coign (spelled C.O.I.G.N) offers what is essentially a conservative Visa card that donates a portion of every transaction to support Conservative charities. It's the brainchild of CEO Rob Collins, a proud conservative with some heavy-hitting bona fides such as serving as Former Executive Director of the National Republican Senatorial Committee, Former Chief of Staff to Representative Eric Cantor, and Former Press Secretary for Senator John Thune's Senate Campaign. Rob joins the show today to tell us all about COIGN.Links: America's first credit card for Conservatives...Coign Card Charity ProgramFollow us on our socials: Twitter: @capitalresearchInstagram: @capitalresearchcenterFacebook: www.facebook.com/capitalresearchcenterYouTube: @capitalresearchcenter
