In today's episode of The Women's Vibrancy Code, Maraya is joined by internationally renowned coach, Laura Berman Fortgang, to dig into decision-making. With so many paths in life, so many options and obstacles, how can you really know if you're making the right choice? For a lot of women - most women, in fact - decision-making is tied to identity, which is also tied to complicated life history. Your lived experiences of the past and present define not only how you identify and perceive yourself, but how you make decisions. As your life changes and takes new directions, it's important to take a look at both past and present motivations to unpack decision-making. As a whole, the process of reinvention can be an intuitive one - we're so often in our heads and answering to outside perceptions, that it's important to get back to our basic concepts of self, wants and identities. In today's episode, Maraya and Laura look at what drives decision-making, how to be more in tune with the right decisions, when to realign your choices and more! IN THIS EPISODE: [14:50] The three blocks to clarity [18:21] How your life history affects your future decisions and self-perceptions [23:02] Adjusting plans as your life changes, unpacking past and present motivation [27:09] Beginning the process of reinvention KEY TAKEAWAYS: Decision-making is a complex process, influenced by external perceptions, lived experiences and self-given identities. What has motivated you in the past and in the present play a key part in making choices, as does the need to get to the heart of yourself, your identity outside of a career and your true wants.

Visit www.scottchesney.com to learn more about Scott. Together, we interview, Laura Berman Fortgang, Career Reinvention Catalyst, Founder of Now What?® Coaching, best-selling author, TEDx speaker. Laura has 25+ years in the personal coaching field. She is a sought after speaker, tv personality. She has appeared on multiple morning shows, Oprah Winfrey Show, is a corporate spokesperson, Interfaith minister and performer. Her TEDx talk has over 1.6 million views. Her five books published in 13 languages.

She says although she is not Latina in her blood, she feels she is Latina in her heart and speaks fondly of her time in Venezuela.  When she came back from Venezuela, she found it a bit hard to get reacclimated in American culture. She says that she didn't even know who the Beatles were! In high school the stage became her home. She found a love for theater. Although, her parents were not all for it, she decided to try and make a go of acting. The life of an actor is not easy and after about 8 years of trying to get to where she wanted to be, depression had set in. During the interview Laura explains the path she needed to take in order to get to a better place. After speaking with a mentor and doing some inner work, Laura decided to transform what she would perform from the stage. From being an actor performing in a show, she instead decided to take the stage and help move people to transform. She was one of the first 16 students at Coach University and one of the first people to start the International Coaching Federation. We talk about how coaching is different than therapy, and how coaches are now being more sought after than ever.

Welcome to season 2, episode 13.This week my guest is Helen Archontou, MSW, LSW, Chief Executive Officer, YWCA of Northern New Jersey. As Chief Executive Officer since 2011, Helen Archontou is focused on guiding YWCA Northern New Jersey into its next century of living its mission to eliminate racism, empower women, and strengthen communities. As you will hear during this interview Helen doesn't have a career. She has a calling. What she is doing now is no surprise to those who know her. Although, she did have a love for the performing arts, but her parents encouraged her to go after another passion. So, Helen uses her voice for those who do not know how to use theirs in a way that will affect much needed change. Helen has overseen the development of a continuum of programs to support women and families in every stage of life as well as to raise awareness and take action to end racial and social injustice. In 2019, Helen received the Crime Victim's Rights Award from the NJ Office of the Attorney General and the Excellence Award of Victim's Justice. She was also named among The Powerful Women of NJ in Senator Loretta Weinberg's 2019, 2020 and 2021 Women Power List. In 2020, Helen received the Top 50 Women in Business from NJ Biz and the Top 25 Women in NJ Award from Leading Women Entrepreneurs. In 2021, Helen was recognized by Commerce & Industry Association of NJ (CIANJ) as a Women Leader on the Rise. Helen is an adjunct professor at Montclair State University since 2005 in the School of Social Work. When you are this motivated and driven to do such incredible changemaking it is important to find balance and Helen has learned what that means for her. Between self-talk, self-kindness, and visualization, she has rituals that she uses in order to find her center. When you feel a bit of the weight of so many people, even populations it is important to know how to find a way to reconnect after a long day. Listen in to hear Helen's response to the question, what is the footprint you are creating now that you want to leave behind?Next week, I have a special guest co-host from my first season of the Today is the Day Changemakers podcast.

Laura Berman Fortgang is an author, speaker, and career coach. She has appeared on TED, Fortune, Fast Company, The New York Times, CNN, and Oprah Winfrey, and was one of the original founders of the International Coach Federation. Laura joins Shaa to talk about her incredible coaching career across the past 27 years, the ingredients needed to be a life-changing coach, and the true meaning of reinvention and evolution. KEY TAKEAWAYS Life is like a magnet. Every single piece of rust and decay in your life is preventing the good stuff from being attracted to you Taking control of our destiny is all about choosing ourselves instead of waiting for others to choose us. We have the power to rise up, so why wait for someone else to give us the green light? The world today is constantly evolving, and can sometimes appear daunting, but with the advancing technology has come more opportunity for reinvention. When we evolve and change, we are growing closer to the version of ourselves that has always been there. Evolving is about peeling away layers to reveal what has always been there. BEST MOMENTS 'What is the rust on my magnet that I need to get rid of in order to attract the good stuff in life?' 'I was an actor who became a coach and it changed my life' 'I don't want to wait for someone to choose me. I want to choose myself' 'Reinvention is about getting closer to who you really are as you evolve' VALUABLE RESOURCES Building A Bigger Table Podcast - https://omny.fm/shows/building-a-bigger-table    Laura Berman Fortgang - https://laurabermanfortgang.com MEET YOUR HOST Hi, I'm Shaa.

What qualities of focus are required to be a creative and effective person? How do dancers attend to the space within and around them, using focus to direct the viewer's attention and to give shape to their environment? Being able to direct or manipulate our focus and that of others enables us to understand, connect, express, create, and accomplish. Though related as elements of dance, working with the quality of focus as a spatial effort is distinct from shapes and shaping that move through dimensions and pathways in space (though I have lots more resources about that!), it is distinct from detailed and specific traditions of meditative practice (though I do have yoga, pranayama, visualization and meditation content about that and it will continue to be fertile ground for future exploration), and it is different from the element of time: flow, management productivity, and organization (though I love all that, too!). Rather, I specifically want to explore here our ability to direct our focus and therefore form space in particular ways and how we are able to develop facility in doing so with precision and effectiveness for practical and expressive purposes in dance and in life. Focus, or directing attention in the ways the Laban Movement Analysis system refers to as the Space Effort, has to do with translating our intent into action. In the book Making Connections, Peggy Hackney clarifies: “The Space Effort deals with how you give attention, not the place in space. Both Direct and Indirect approaches to paying attention are active. Indirectness is not the same as being ‘spaced out' or out of space; it is giving active attention to more than one thing at once. Both types of Space Effort relate to thinking.” (emphasis mine) As Questlove explains in the book Creative Quest, certain approaches to focus serve the creative process best: “Creative things happen to creative people, especially when they let themselves go to the Zen of the moment, when they don't allow themselves to be paralyzed either by overthinking or by laziness. They have to be in the sweet spot between the two. [...]There's lots of noise all around, and as a creative person, you're being asked to find the signal. But to truly find it, you need some sort of internal check or monitor. You need moments of silence where you can hear yourself.” In Living Your Best Life, Laura Berman Fortgang asserts that "Nothing is a better partner to taking action than being still. Stillness allows the most effective action to emerge, helping to settle the chaos and uncover the action and direction that will do the most good." When we are present to our purpose and priorities or that which deserves our focus, we are freed to act in ways that serve us, our communities, and the planet. What is the quality of your focus? What states of focus and approaches to space will enhance your dancing, creativity, and life experience? Stay tuned on my YouTube Channel and Blog for more!

What’s Next?! With Laura Berman Fortgang

Laura Berman Fortgang is recognised as a pioneer in the personal coaching field and part of the founding team of the International Coach Federation. She has brought coaching to NASA, Florida’s State Government and dozens of Fortune 500 companies.   She has made appearances on Oprah, Good Morning America and CNN, amongst others, as well as publishing five best-selling books including ‘Now What? 90 Days to a New Life Direction’ and ‘The Little Book On Meaning’. And in 2015 she gave a TEDx talk titled ‘How to Find Your Dream Job Without Ever Looking at Your Resume’ which has been viewed more than 1.5 million times.   Laura joins Phil to discuss why the roadmap to your future is never in your current resumè. Laura also talks about why we should trust our instincts when it comes to shaping our IT career.   KEY TAKEAWAYS:   TOP CAREER TIP Don’t look at your resume in order to find the next step in your career if you’re not happy with the role you’re currently performing. It’s only a chronological case study of the road you’ve taken so far, and doesn’t provide insight into where you’re headed.   WORST CAREER MOMENT As a former actor, Laura gave her everything during a performance and was met by a damning response by an audience member. From this she learned to never take rejection personally.   CAREER HIGHLIGHT Meeting Oprah Winfrey was the highlight of Laura’s career and taught her much about confidence and nerves, and how to handle the intimidation that many must have felt in that position.   THE FUTURE OF CAREERS IN I.T Longevity and innovation is abundant. The challenge will be in how the industry scales, and what the next generation of professionals looks like. Seeing how the people in the industry age and grow will be fascinating to watch.   THE REVEAL What first attracted you to a career in I.T.? – What’s the best career advice you received? – Be the best at what you do and be as single-minded as possible. What’s the worst career advice you received? – What would you do if you started your career now? – Laura would worry less and compare herself to others less. What are your current career objectives? – Scaling her business from doing one-on-one training to one-on-many training scenarios. What’s your number one non-technical skill? – Communication skills have been key to helping Laura build her business. How do you keep your own career energized? – Reading and learning are a marvellous way of keeping our skills fresh. What do you do away from technology? – Children taken up much of Laura’s time. Her other passion is crochet.   FINAL CAREER TIP Honour those inklings inside you that tell you something inside of you is trying to evolve. Follow the small voices that try to guide you.   BEST MOMENTS   (10:14) – Laura - “We’re all supposed to be grownups and professionals and know our expertise, but in the end we’re just people” (6:29) – Laura - “If there’s anyone out there thinking that they want to make a change, then your resume isn’t going to have the answer’ (14:40) – Laura – “Be the best at what you do. Be single-minded, and that doesn’t mean to compete with anyone other than yourself” (16:00) – Laura – “If you create extraordinary results, that’s your own marketing. That’s your PR”   ABOUT THE HOST – PHIL BURGESS   Phil Burgess is an independent IT consultant who has spent the last 20 years helping organizations to design, develop, and implement software solutions.  Phil has always had an interest in helping others to develop and advance their careers.  And in 2017 Phil started the I.T. Career Energizer podcast to try to help as many people as possible to learn from the career advice and experiences of those that have been, and still are, on that same career journey.   CONTACT THE HOST – PHIL BURGESS Phil can be contacted through the following Social Media platforms:   Twitter: https://twitter.com/philtechcareer LinkedIn: https://uk.linkedin.com/in/philburgess Facebook: https://facebook.com/philtechcareer Instagram: https://instagram.com/philtechcareer Website: https://itcareerenergizer.com/contact   Phil is also reachable by email at phil@itcareerenergizer.com and via the podcast’s website, https://itcareerenergizer.com Join the I.T.

Marianne Craig is a master coach and the co-founder of Firework Coaching Company, home of the renowned and proven Firework framework for helping people change career. From a young age, Marianne realised the value of questioning everything, but that only started to become her profession in the midst of what Marianne calls a fulfillment crisis. She was listening to BBC Woman's Hour in 1999 when she heard a coach speaking. By the end of the programme she was already calling the helpline: she knew it was what she wanted to do for a living.Since then, she has racked up thousands of hours of coaching, founding Firework in 2003, becoming an ICF accredited Master Coach in 2005 and forming many other collaborations including Mirus Coaching for Social Change, Mentor Coaches International and a new project providing pro bono coaching to Extinction Rebellion activists.With 25 years' experience as a business owner, coach and consultant she works with people who are at a life or career crossroads. Her specialism is supporting clients to find meaningful and fulfilling work.In this episode, we talk about:- How, as a working class little girl on a council estate near Glasgow, she first learned about her sense of agency in the world.- How she created the renowned Firework Career Coaching Framework, started Firework Coaching Company and later sold it.- Why she has never got bored of her work with people changing careers.- What she thinks makes a great website for a coach (as one of the first people to have a coaching website) and how to launch it.- How she tried every kind of marketing in existence and what she learned from that experimentation (and what she recommends you do so you don't have to experiment with everything).Plus, starting from Marianne's bugbears about the coaching industry, we get into a fascinating conversation about the morals and ethics of coaching, and ask questions like, is the end is near for ‘the client's agenda' and ‘where were the coaches when the banks went down'?For more information about Marianne, visit: https://www.coachlifeandcareer.com/ or http://www.mentor-coach.com/For information about Robbie's wider work and writing, visit www.robbieswalecoaching.com.Music by My Good Man William: listen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/4KmeQUcTbeE31uFynHQLQgThings and people we mentioned (that you might be interested in):~4: James Bianco and the Coach's Journey episode with James: https://www.thecoachsjourney.com/podcast/episode-5-james-bianco-beware-your-simple-stories-about-coaching-success~5: Laura Berman Fortgang: https://laurabermanfortgang.com/~10: Coach U: https://www.coachu.com/~30 and ~37: Firework: https://www.fireworkcoaching.com/~38: Kate Edmunds: https://uk.linkedin.com/in/kate-edmonds-5aa25516~39: CTI: https://coactive.com/~40: Careershifters: http://www.careershifters.org/~40: My temping colleague, Amy, and her awesome vintage dress company, Clarence and Alabama: https://www.clarenceandalabama.co.uk/~41: Richard Alderson: https://uk.linkedin.com/in/richardalderson~54: Marianne's ebook, So You Want To Become A Coach - A Guide to Training and Skills for Life and Business Coaching: http://www.mentor-coach.com/become_a_life_coach.htm~55: The ICF (International Coaching Federation) and their levels of credential, ACC, PCC and MCC: https://www.coachfederation.org.uk/credentialing/credential_path~56: Academy of Coaching Supervision: https://coachingsupervisionacademy.com/~58: ICF International events: https://coachfederation.org/events/icf-converge-2019~82: Sir John Whitmore and his book Coaching For Performance: https://www.performanceconsultants.com/coaching-for-performance-book~82: Association for Coaching: https://www.associationforcoaching.com/~90: Climate Change Coaches: https://www.climatechangecoaches.com/~93: Mirus Coaching for Social Change and Alma Neville~94: Robert Holden: https://www.robertholden.com/~110: Exeter Street Hall, the new community centre where Marianne is a trustee: https://exeterstreethall.org/

Tune in to today's show as Laura Berman Fortgang and I talk about how the plan for success in the modern world is outdated, how to use comedy and acting in political ways, how to find your life purpose and more. “You don't choose your purpose, it chooses you. So if you look at your whole life as a picture, think about how do people come to you? What do they come to you for just naturally? It doesn't have to do with your job description.” - Laura Berman Fortgang. Learn more about this episode of The Rant with Baeth at www.baeth.com/36

Great thinking + Great action = Extraordinary Results. The rules have changed. The old strategies of hard work, fitting in, and loyalty no longer guarantee a secure and shiny future. In this inspiring book, Laura B. Fortgang reveals that the most powerful currency today is a deep and unwavering awareness of one's inherent worth and potential. The Prosperity Plan offers a simple and clear approach to building financial and emotional security. According to Fortgang, in order to obtain wealth and happiness we need to become receptive to all the world has in store for us. We must build lives outside of the "norm," always reaching for our own unique good versus some cookie- cutter version of what we thought our lives "should" or "could" be.
