This week, Maria speaks with Atoosa Rubenstein.Atoosa Rubenstein is the author of Atoosa Unedited, an at-times confronting, at-times healing weekly letter on Substack where she models authenticity, self-love and acceptance for her readers. The former Editor-in-Chief of Seventeen Magazine and Founder/Editor-in-Chief of CosmoGIRL! In 1998, Rubenstein created a prototype for CosmoGIRL! within 48 hours and was offered the job on the spot making her, at 26, the youngest Editor in Chief in the over 100 year history of Hearst Magazines. After a successful run at CosmoGIRL!, Hearst acquired Seventeen and tapped Rubenstein to turn the venerable title around. After just one year at the title, Rubenstein reversed a five year decline in Seventeen's newsstand sales and delivered a total newsstand growth of 23% within two years. She also conceived and was an Executive Producer on MTV's Miss Seventeen a series that debuted in the fall of 2005. The following year, Rubenstein left the industry altogether to undergo a grueling 13-year personal excavation and discovery mission that led to three of her own daughters and now, a twice-a-week love letter Atoosa Unedited, written for her beloved readers, now adults in their own right. Columbia University has honored her as one of the top 250 alumni through the ages. She has also been recognized by the Girl Scout Council of Greater New York as a Woman of Distinction. Rubenstein has been featured in Crain's New York Business' "40 Under 40" and Folio's "30 Under 30." She lives in Manhattan with her three daughters.

“What makes your heart sing?”  Carmine Gallo I recently read the book Talk Like Ted.  One of my passions is working with high school Girl Scouts.  The highest award a high school Girl Scout can earn is the Gold Award.  I am honored to be on our Girl Scout Council’s Gold Award Committee and assist Girl Scouts through the process.  The first two chapters reinforced much of what I tell others about choosing a good Gold Award project.  The book is a guide for those making presentations.  It describes why the TED Talk format works so well.  The book is structured so those that aren’t giving a TED Talk can still find valuable tips.  I picked up the book as I have applied to give a TEDx talk next spring and have been thinking about the presentation.  After reading the book I have more confidence and am eager to create a presentation. The first chapter talks about passion.  We often talk about identifying your passion when working to choose a Gold Award project.  The book takes this a step further.  I love the question the book presents “What makes your heart sing?” (page 55).  This is about more than passion.  I think of this as “What gets you fired up?”. This is what gets your heart racing.  A subject that when it is brought up in conversation you just cannot keep quiet.  The subject that if your best friend, a stranger, and you were in a conversation and the stranger brought it up, your best friend would just roll her eyes, knowing what is coming.  The train has left the station and there are no brakes. The second chapter talks about storytelling.  As I read this chapter, I thought about the interviews related to the Gold Award process.  Often as we go through the Gold Award process, we answer questions as written or follow a checklist.  If instead we used each question as an opportunity to tell a story, project connections would be clearer. The ‘why’ of a project would come across more easily.  Instead of checking requirements off a list, a fuller explanation would be available. By sharing the story, the project becomes more personal.  Not only to the review committee, but to others as you ask them to support your project.  The donor, your project advisor, your volunteers.  All of them will better understand your goals when you share your story. There are a lot of other interesting pieces regarding presentation in the book.  One I found most interesting was regarding how fast you should speak.  As someone who speaks fast and listens to podcasts at 1.9 speed, the material presented caused me to pay more attention to my speaking speed.  I learned a lot about listening too. The presentation tips are valuable for all.  I know it drives me crazy when a presenter reads every word on the slide.  Why do we need a presenter? I could have read the slides myself.  Using the slides to enhance the presentation is a tip many people could learn. https://www.amazon.com/Talk-Like-TED-Public-Speaking-Secrets/dp/1250061539/ref=asc_df_1250061539/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=266023323049&hvpos=1o1&hvnetw=g&hvrand=4175388889410257643&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9019296&hvtargid=pla-489309437727&psc=1 Thanks for joining me this week.  Be sure to check our show notes for links to inspiration items and …  don't forget to stop and smell the roses.

“Unless you know where you're from you don't have that anchor as a leader, you really can't move forward” – Lidia Soto-Harmon Lidia has spent a great deal of her life in the “hyphen” of being a Cuban-American: that is between her Cuban roots and American life as an adult. Her Cuban missionary parents moved from Tennessee to El Salvador to Ecuador back to the U.S. during Lidia’s formative years, deeply instilling in her love of family, service and travel. In this incredibly open, authentic, heart-warming interview Lidia shares wonderful stories of her family – from her uncle’s MacGyver-like ingenuity forced by scarcity of communist Cuba to her father’s magic touch with people (that Lidia clearly inherited) to the moving recent trip with her children back to Cuba. Lidia also talks about the importance of sharing your struggles and not just successes as a leader; how she "translates" her international background and earlier career successes to making impact locally with the Girl Scouts; her struggles with balance and making time for self-care; and some fun stories about her family’s fascination with everything Alexander Hamilton (and not just the musical!) What You'll Learn About Lidia’s amazing journey as the daughter of Cuban missionary parents from TN to El Salvador and Ecuador back to the U.S. Why Lidia considers the question "where are you from?" a complicated one How living in Latin America and witnessing extreme poverty and injustice influenced Lidia's path as a leader Ways leaders can systemically impact community and have a ripple effect at multiple levels of change Some heartwarming personal stories of young women Lidia has mentored and what she has learned from them (and her children) in return What Lidia most struggles with at this point of her life and career The challenges and gifts of being an “empty nester” Why Lidia’s personal mission in elevators is to make people laugh at least ones Secrets of the Woo (Winning Over Others) she learned from her father What Lidia and her family find fascinating and inspiring about Alexander Hamilton  Links & Resources The Girl Scout Council of the Nation’s Capital – Lidia’s organization Encuentro – Girl Scouts’ conference to empower Latina girls TED talks – one of Lidia’s (and mine) sources of inspiration Hamilton the Musical – Tony Award-winning musical by Lin-Manual Miranda Lidia references in the interview Alexander Hamilton by Ron Chernow – book Lidia recommends about Alexander Hamilton (you may be seeing a pattern, she is a huge Hamilton fan as you’ll hear about in this interview!)
