Podcast appearances and mentions of heather hansen

Communications consultant and attorney Heather Hansen discusses her article, "Why every doctor needs a translator." Drawing on her background as a medical malpractice defense attorney, she explains the "curse of knowledge," where physicians, once expert, find it difficult to imagine not knowing complex medical information, leading to communication barriers with patients. Heather argues that doctors must become effective "translators" of medical jargon into plain language, noting that research found only two percent of sample orthopedic patient materials met sixth-grade readability standards. She presents a three-step process for physicians to overcome this challenge: Be Curious (actively ask patients what they understand, not just if, and involve staff), Be Compassionate (use curiosity to truly see from the patient's perspective, recognizing clear communication is kind), and Build Credibility (explain the 'why' behind instructions clearly to foster trust and belief). Heather contends that mastering this "translation" skill improves patient outcomes, strengthens relationships, reduces legal risk, and can even lessen physician burnout.

We are excited to welcome Heather Hansen O'Neill as our guest for today. She is an internationally recognized speaker and behavior expert who has delivered two TEDx talks and authored three books.  Heather thrives on adventure. She joins us today to discuss life and adventures, her program, The Element of Adventure, and dive into what it means to have vision, focus, and discipline. If you enjoy nature, helping others, seeking adventure, and are looking to transform your approach to business, you will love this engaging conversation with Heather Hansen O'Neill. Stay tuned for more! Early Life and Discipline Heather's professional journey began long before she started her business over 25 years ago. She became a professional dancer at the age of 13. She had to juggle her education and passion for dance while also working to help her parents pay for her dance classes. The rigorous lifestyle instilled resilience in her, along with a work ethic that later translated into business success, as it taught her invaluable lessons about discipline, perseverance, and pushing beyond her comfort zone. The Impact of Dance on Business Heather credits much of her business acumen to her background in dance. It required discipline for her to excel as a dancer. She had to endure long hours of practice, handle rejection, and maintain focus, contributing to her success in sales and entrepreneurship. Even after a career-ending injury, she continued to find ways to incorporate her passion for dance into her life, which she believes makes her do a lot better at everything else she does. Transition to Business and Speaking Her transition from dance to business came through sales, a field she entered while putting herself through college. After a client encouraged her to do it, Heather combined her sales experience and love for helping others to start a business. She initially focused on sales and customer service training, later expanding her career into coaching and becoming a keynote speaker. Her journey into speaking was gradual, driven by her desire to connect with and inspire audiences. Embracing Vulnerability in Speaking One of the most valuable lessons Heather learned as a speaker was the importance of vulnerability. Her performance background initially made her strive for perfection in her presentations, which created a barrier between her and her audience. Over time, she realized that being open about her mistakes and failures allowed her to connect more deeply with others, making her a more effective speaker. The Adventure Mindset Heather believes in embracing her adventure mindset, which challenges beliefs, assumptions, and judgments, to help individuals and teams unlock their full potential. She is an adventure junkie, so she incorporates her love for pushing boundaries into her speaking engagements. She uses her experiences of jumping out of airplanes, flying on a trapeze, and swimming with sharks to teach others about expanding their comfort zones.  Humanity and Leadership Heather emphasizes the importance of caring for humanity in leadership. She believes that in the modern world, where isolation and polarization are prevalent, leaders have a unique opportunity to make a positive impact by genuinely caring for their people and communities. Her framework, which draws from the elements of nature, helps leaders assess and optimize their teams, ultimately driving both personal and organizational growth. Tips for Entrepreneurs For entrepreneurs, Heather stresses the importance of staying connected to the passion that drove them to start their businesses. She encourages them to focus on transforming their businesses while transforming how they do business by embracing innovation, seeking diverse perspectives, and always keeping humanity at the core of their actions. BIO:  Heather Hansen O'Neill is an international keynote speaker, behavioral expert, 3x author, and adventure junkie. She is also a 2x TEDx speaker, host of the popular podcast From Fear to Fire, and creator of L-FOCUS (Leadership For Our Children's Ultimate Success).

Have you ever talked on the phone with someone and then met in real life only to be surprised at what the person looked like? What does the accent of television and movie characters speak to as to a character's personality and skillset?How, if at all, does the accent of a prospective employee impact decision-makers in determining whether the individual is qualified for the position?Accent bias effects how individuals process information and make decisions, both in the work environment and in life generally.On this episode of HR Power Hour, join co-host Tawny Alvarez as she talks to Heather Hansen, Founder of Global Speech Academy and author of Unmuted as they discuss accent bias at work and steps decision-makers can take to minimize the adverse effects it has on your decision-making at work.

As our workplaces grow increasingly global and interconnected, we find ourselves at a pivotal moment to re-evaluate one of the most potent, yet over-looked aspects of DEI: Language and human communication. We often hear that language is power, but today we're going to be looking at language as a tool. A tool of empowerment. Our guest argues that language is more than just a means of expression. It's a bridge, allowing us to traverse cultural divides, challenge biases, and foster truly inclusive spaces. In her work, she seeks to break down linguistic barriers and challenge the often micro inequalities that stand in the way of truly diverse and inclusive workspaces. Heather Hansen helps global professionals show up, speak up, and inspire action in a changing world.  If you'd like to follow William & Mary's School of Business or learn more about the Diversity and Inclusion podcast and our programs, please visit us at www.mason.wm.edu.

Christine discusses accent bias with Heather Hansen, an expert on cultural inclusion and communication. They explore how accents impact perceptions, unconscious bias, and career advancement. Heather shares stories of being told her Danish accent was "charming" in business meetings and feeling like she would always be seen as a foreigner in Denmark.

Heather explains authentic adaptability and provides tips for developing self-awareness and being a conversational ally at work. CHRISTINE AND HEATHER DISCUSSAccent bias, its unconscious nature and the ways awareness can mitigate it.How accents impact perceptions of capability in business. Why comments on accents diminish power. Western cultural spillover which doesn't necessarily work in all cultures.Self-awareness and the reality of understanding your values. How to listen beyond accents and invite others into conversations to be an ally.BEST MOMENTS"89 per cent of the people in their survey believed that others had made subconscious judgments about them. based on their accent or how they speak.""When we hear the accent, we're immediately placing them into all of those boxes. The minute we make a decision based on the boxes, that's when it can become discriminatory.""Imagine being in a business meeting and there's a man presenting, talking about his topic. He's speaking in a language other than his first, in the local language of the area, and some other man pipes up in the middle of the meeting and says, Oh, my goodness, your accent is so cute.""My authentic self at home with my family is very different from what I feel is my authentic self on a stage speaking, or in a business meeting. I am still bringing my authentic self to the table, but the way that I change my behaviour, my vocabulary, my speaking style is very adaptable."“I can go anywhere in the world, attempt any language and say, 'if it's too hard to understand me, why don't we just speak English?' And I get all of my power back. I'm now the one in charge. I'm the one who's confident.”ABOUT THE GUESTHeather helps multinational companies enhance collaboration, innovation and inclusion across their global teams through greater understanding and stronger, more efficient communication policies.

Heather Hansen's burnout, like unfortunately so many others, landed her in the hospital. Her stress levels had become so extreme due to her career as a defense attorney that Heather's body responded with a severe allergic reaction. Afterward, Heather realized she needed to start advocating for herself with the same level of compassion, love, and loyalty that she had for her clients in the courtroom. Now, a Best-Selling author and speaker, Heather teaches others how to self-advocate through mastering the art of the ask and convincing their inner juries.    In a courtroom, both sides present the exact same evidence from different perspectives. It is up to the jury to consider that evidence and choose which side to support. The same is true for your inner jury. When you start looking for evidence of positive things about yourself, your inner jury will feel more confident about trusting you. This will make it easier for you to advocate for yourself. Give yourself permission to pursue what you want for now, knowing that it will change at some point. Once you know what it is you want, then it is time to ask for help or accommodations out loud and with delight. In order to ask effectively, you must speak with compassion, curiosity, and credibility. Approach your ask from the other person's perspective instead of your own by asking what they want and speaking to it.    Recovering from burnout requires that you be able to ask for help when you need it. Self-advocacy can be particularly challenging for perfectionists, but it does not have to be. When you can ask for what you need from a place of compassion rather than resentment, you are much more likely to get a ‘yes'.    Quotes • “What I decided to do was to start advocating for myself the way that I advocated for my clients in the courtroom.” (5:02-5:09 | Heather) • “You need to know what you want. You need to ask for it out loud and with delight. And you need to master the ask.” (8:55-9:02 | Heather) • “You've got to give your inner jury a different story.” (11:23-11:11:25 | Heather) • “For those of us who got to where we thought we wanted to be, and then it wasn't the right place for us anymore…that's okay. It just means that you are meant for more.” (13:29-13:42 | Heather) • “If you are asking with resentment, you are very unlikely to get the things that you want.” (16:27-16:34 | Heather) • “In the courtroom, both sides have the same evidence. And both sides use the same evidence to prove different things. So you need to decide what story you want to support.” (19:10-19:21 | Heather) • “If you're struggling with advocating for yourself, make it about something else…Sometimes if you can externalize it, it makes it easier to start advocating.” (48:10-48:37 | Heather)   Links Connect with Heather Hansen: https://advocatetowin.com/ https://www.instagram.com/anelegantwarrior/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/heather-hansen-84243512/ https://view.flodesk.com/pages/64710dde8533b6ba4f709de9   XOXO, C   If you know that it's time to actually DO something about the burnout cycle you've been in for too long - book your free consult today: bit.ly/callcait   https://friedtheburnoutpodcast.com/quiz   Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm
