Having spoken to and worked with hundreds of people worldwide over the last six months, if there’s one constant to the ever-changing landscape of 2020, it’s that this global pandemic has been a magnifying glass amplifying every tiny little detail about our lives (and society at large) that just wasn’t working. For many this intense awareness has been paralyzing while for others it’s been a motivating call to action. So what’s the difference for those who feel stuck versus those who take action and see results? Maybe you’re sick of being stuck on the wrong career path and feeling desperate to pursue your true passion, but you’re too afraid to take action because you’re waiting to “see how things work out?” Maybe you’re anxious about work swallowing up what semblance of life you have outside your career…especially now that you’re stuck working from home? Or maybe you are so overwhelmed about all the uncertainties and unknowns that you feel paralyzed and unable to focus on anything but just getting through another day. Yes, pandemic-induced procrastination is indeed a thing. If any of these sound like you, I have three amazing guests on today’s show that know exactly how you feel. Ariel Fujita is an unscripted editor making the transition to colorist. Maxton Weller is a sound editor and composer for films and video games, and Kristi Shimek is an indie film editor transitioning to scripted television. This episode is a case study where I speak candidly with all three who are members of the Optimizer community who have successfully navigated the challenges of being an introvert, who have battled the perfectionism that holds us back from accomplishing our goals, and who can relate to how imposter syndrome keeps us stuck in the wrong career path. And we discuss the strategies and methods they all implemented to work through these common pitfalls to feel confident and clear, not only about what they want in life but more importantly, how to actually live it. All three guests have recently completed my coaching & mentorship program, put in a lot of hard work, and have achieved amazing results…while by the way, living through a global pandemic.

The separate but eerily similar stories of how Ariel and Kristi both almost skipped Zack’s Networking for Introverts seminar because they were too shy and scared. Why Ariel struggled with burnout and the mind-set shift she had to make to overcome the endless cycle. KEY TAKEAWAY: Learning to ask the right questions will improve the quality of your life and the connections you make. Why building confidence requires a deep dive into your psychology and your motivations. The number one thing you need to get better at before you can even start networking. How to stop waiting for focus to magically appear and instead learn to train it. What you need to implement systems to improve time management and keep you accountable. What a brain dump is and why doing it regularly will alleviate stress and anxiety. Why doing a daily wrap up is essential for setting boundaries especially when working from home. How Kristi got back her nights and weekends by setting expectations at the start of a job. What Maxton’s IMDB spreadsheet revealed to him and how it led to a relationship with a composer he’s admired for years. Maxton’s revelation about outreach emails: “It’s not IF people want to help you, it’s CANthey help you” What transformed Kristi from being afraid to send outreach emails to doing it every single week and getting a 100% response rate. The magic formula to writing successful outreach emails. The Ben Franklin Effect: what it is and how it helps you build relationships. Maxton’s advice: Don’t wait to see what happens. Take action. Ariels’ advice:  Why not do the scariest thing at the scariest time to get where you want to be.

Ariel’s editing credits include Are You The One? (MTV), America’s Next Top Model (VH1), and Last Call With Carson Daly (NBC). After working primarily in off-line post production, she has recently made the transition to on-line editing and she hopes to eventually pursue a career as a colorist for scripted television and independent films. Ariel lives in Los Angeles with her wife and their five cats. When she’s not working, she enjoys watching horror films and she makes a killer mac and cheese. KRISTI SHIMEK Kristi Shimek is a Los Angeles based Film and Television Editor. Within her first year of moving to Hollywood, she was cutting indie features in the LA circuit with stars such as Lou Diamond Phillips, Danny Trejo, Lea Thompson, and Nicolas Cage. Recently, Kristi has edited on two breakout feature film successes. The Night Clerk , a character based thriller directed by Michael Christofer (Original Sin, T he Witches of Eastwick ) and starring Tye Sheridan, Ana de Armas, and Helen Hunt, which reached #5 on Netflix’s Top Ten List in June 2020. And Inheritance, a narrative commentary on patriarchy and privilege directed by Vaughn Stein (Terminal) and starring Simon Pegg and Lily Collins, which was featured at the 2020 Tribeca Film Festival. In addition to films, Kristi has just finished editing on her first network television show, NEXT, a near-future tech based drama created and executive produced by Manny Coto and starring John Slattery, which is set to debut on October 6th on Fox. MAXTON WALLER Maxton Waller is a composer and multi-instrumentalist living in Los Angeles, California with a formidable output and unparalleled work ethic. He has been writing and performing music professionally since the age of 10. In 2007, he moved to Los Angeles and got his start in good old-fashioned rock and roll. After a few cross-country tours, he leapt to film/interactive and never looked back. You can hear his work across television and the internet; the Hulu Original Series “RocketJump: The Show”, Stan Lee’s animated series “Cosmic Crusaders”, Nickelodeon’s animated series “Rainbow Rangers”, and literally (not metaphorically) dozens of YouTube videos with views in the hundreds of millions. In addition to this, Maxton has written songs placed in the Netflix Original Series “Marvel’s The Defenders”, CBS’ reboot of “MacGyver”, “Video Game High School”, “Sons of Anarchy”, The MLB network, and countless others. He has studied at some of the greatest schools in the country; The Musician’s Institute and the Berklee College of Music. Maxton is highly-regarded for his deep understanding of audio, easy-going personality, and fast turnaround. There’s a reason you’ll see the same studios hire him repeatedly – Maxton is a musical force of nature and he elevates every project he works on. Show Credits: This episode was edited by Curtis Fritsch, and the show notes were prepared by Debby Germino and published by Glen McNiel. The original music in the opening and closing of the show is courtesy of Joe Trapanese (who is quite possibly one of the most talented composers on the face of the planet).

Episode 002 Kristi Rhodes CNM Kristi Rhodes has worked in maternal-child nursing since 2001. Her start in this career path was as a postpartum nurse in a high risk, high volume hospital in Boise, ID where she fell in love with birth and caring for families. Kristi journeyed into midwifery in 2010 to fulfill her desire to be an advocate and an educator for families, believing that birth is an empowering and transformative event in a family’s life. Kristi promotes physiologic birth and encourages women to be active participants in their care. She attends births at a local hospital where she strives to bring the true midwifery model in to the hospital setting, allowing women and families birth in a way that makes sense individually. In this episode we talk about: Kristi’s experience as an OB nurse, her passion for helping women and families, and her journey into midwifery. How Kristi and Holly met and their shared passion for supporting the hormonal physiology of birth no matter the circumstances: (home birth, birth center, hospital, complications, cesarean birth). How Mindfulness practice during pregnancy helps women connect to their bodies and their babies,supports the hormones of birth, helps decrease fear of the birth process, and helps women trust their bodies more. How Mindfulness-based birth education can help women deal with the ups and downs that occur during labor and help them let go of trying to control the process… thereby supporting hormonal physiology. Trusting the body’s ability to give birth and supporting the hormones of birth help women and families deal with any complications that may arise during labor and decreases any effects of trauma that may occur during the process. How mindfulness practice during pregnancy can help with early parenting and any issues that may arise with breastfeeding or early newborn care. Most births in the US occur in hospitals and it is possible to have a completely unmedicated hospital birth experience if women are prepared, empowered, and supported. How having her own mindfulness practice as a provider helps Kristi connect more authentically to women during labor and helps offset stress in her own busy life as a midwife and a mother.

It's THE question for every entrepreneur trying to turn their side business into their main livelihood - when should you quit your day job and pull the plug on a regular paycheck? The internet is full of encouragement to "take the leap," but I don't think that tells the whole story when it comes to such a difficult and complex decision. In today's episode, two previous guests on the show (Alex and Kristi) talk about the struggles of quitting their day jobs and give some great advice for others considering it. Highlights: Why Alex did NOT take a big leap of faith... and what he did instead (3:30) The importance of considering longevity in both business and life (5:05) What to do if all your mental energy is spent on your day job (10:09) How Kristi tried to quit three times before finally cutting ties - and what her first year of full self-employment was like (15:46) Determining your level of risk tolerance (19:57) What happens if everything goes wrong after you quit?

We connected for a conversation about her PR business and why it's so important to share your expertise and magic with the world.     Kristi Dosh is a publicist, author of Saturday Millionaire, and CEO of Guide My Brand. She works with entrepreneurs to establish themselves as experts and become more visible in their expertise to help grow their business.

She is continually evolving and has an ‘I can do anything' attitude that has helped her take her career to amazing heights. In this soul fueled discussion, we cover pivot points, getting over our fears of self-promotion, and sticking to our why. IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN: Kristi's motivation to change course and follow a new path Why self-promotion isn't ‘icky' and how to get over that mental block How getting clear on your mission will transform your visibility How Kristi packages her client's pitch to help them receive the publicity they are ready for Why breaking down your pitch into actionable steps is essential for public appearances How to start putting yourself out there Why public speaking will help take your business to the next level KRISTI'S STORY: Planned her career as an attorney for her entire life, complete with a country club membership and partner position Started a blog as a hobby and it began to slowly shift into a career Received an incredible opportunity to work at ESPN, which required her to give up  her life as an attorney   WHAT I ASK: What is the most common way you see female entrepreneurs holding themselves back? Why is it so important to work with someone who understands the pitching process? What is the first thing you should think about when you want to increase your visibility? SOUL-FUELED QUOTES: “I'm not a big risk-taker. I'm a rule-follower, but ever since I took that big leap, I will take all kinds of risks when it comes to my career. I am always willing to bet on me.” “There's someone out there you need to help. There's someone that needs your gifts.” “Have a really clear idea of what you want to be known for and why you want to be known for that.” DISCUSSED IN THIS EPISODE: www.guidemybrand.com Kristi on Facebook The Visibility Workshop Facebook Group Saturday Millionaires

On today’s episode of Happy Black Woman, Rosetta chats with an inspiring entrepreneur and successful business owner, Kristi Jackson. Kristi is on a mission to help women become more profitable by connecting them with their empowerment. Her goal is to challenge the status quo in today’s business world, which leaves most women business owners less profitable and in business for shorter periods of time. Kristi shares her journey with Rosetta from struggling to find her way in the business world to finding her true purpose of helping others follow their purpose and build profitable businesses. The power of never giving up on your dreams. Kristi was incredibly determined in her quest to find support from women in the business world. After spending months looking for answers as to how she could make more money and be more successful, she finally realized the answers were within her. Kristi was inspired to create her business because she wanted to provide the answers she sought out on her own to other women. She knew she could help and she was compelled to do so. Kristi discusses how she ran her first business and was burning the candle at both ends, but was determined to see it through. This became the platform for her current business, Women CEO Project, where she helps women and organizations around the world. Why you need to stop seeking permission to follow your dreams. When Kristi found a way to pursue her purpose through her business, she realized she had been holding herself back for many years. She shares some action steps for women who are ready to build a business around their purpose. The first step? Absolutely, positively stop seeking permission. Kristi shares how common it is to see people and businesses facing obstacles they put there themselves. When you start believing in what’s possible, everything falls into place. Kristi goes on to share the value of growing your email list along with some other valuable steps that can build a strong foundation for your business. The value of saying, “no”. As Kristi delves into her typical day with Rosetta, she begins by sharing why she says “no” a lot. She realized she was devoting time and energy that weren’t adding value to her life and that’s when she knew it was time to start saying no. Kristi also offers insight into how she structures her day and maintains focus with such a busy schedule. From travel to exercise to playing with her dog, Kristi shares how important it is to always make time for the things that truly matter to you. She also dives into her technique for managing tasks and some tech tools she loves to keep things organized. Why not you? As Kristi shares her story, it’s clear that she had to work hard to get where she is today. She overcame obstacles, persevered, and never gave up on her purpose. As Rosetta closes out her chat with Kristi they discuss some books that have inspired her on her journey. Kristi also shares her number 1 tip for aspiring entrepreneurs who are ready to pursue their dreams: Why not you?
