Podcasts about Power move

Silence is one of the most misunderstood skills in leadership, communication, and life. Many people rush to fill quiet moments with explanations, reactions, or noise because silence forces awareness. It removes the ability to perform, defend, or control how others perceive us. This episode explores why silence feels so uncomfortable and why that discomfort is often a signal that something important is happening internally.The conversation breaks down how silence functions as a power move in high-pressure moments, not because it dominates a room, but because it regulates the nervous system. Troy shares how learning to pause instead of react creates clarity, steadiness, and intentional communication. The episode explores how silence can either trigger fear and old emotional patterns or become a stabilizing force, allowing you to respond with precision instead of impulse.Personal stories are woven throughout, including experiences with conflict, rejection, grief, and preparing for defining moments like public speaking and delivering a TEDx talk. These moments highlight how silence carries different emotional weight depending on context, and how the body often reacts to pressure as if every moment carries the same level of threat. The episode connects this to fight, flight, freeze, and fawn responses, and explains how silence can help interrupt those patterns before they escalate.The episode also explores how silence builds trust and presence in professional settings. Speaking less, pausing longer, and choosing restraint often signal confidence and credibility more than volume or speed. Listeners will hear how silence can shift power dynamics in business, leadership, and relationships, while also demanding emotional discipline, self-control, and a willingness to sit with discomfort.Ultimately, this episode is about mastering silence as a form of self-leadership. It is not about withholding communication or avoiding hard moments. It is about knowing when silence serves you, when it sharpens your message, and when it allows you to own a situation without forcing it. Silence works, but it comes with a cost, and this episode challenges listeners to decide whether they are willing to develop the discipline required to use it well.

Tax talk gets real when it changes how much cash you keep. We sat down with CPA and beauty industry specialist April McDaniel to decode the $25,000 tip income deduction, the permanent FICA tip credit now available to salons and spas, and the exact systems owners need to make tip reporting airtight. April explains who qualifies, why married filing separately is a deal-breaker, and how income thresholds and documentation rules will shift between 2025 and 2026.We get tactical about payroll and accounting. If your team receives tips by cash, card, or apps, those amounts must flow into the correct W‑3 box for Social Security tips, or you risk losing credit and triggering notices. April shares a copy‑and‑paste email you can send to your payroll provider, why the FICA tip credit reduces your payroll tax deduction to avoid double dipping, and how credits pass through on K‑1s. We also surface a hidden risk: when employees add unreported tips at tax time, the IRS can bill the salon for the employer FICA match on that extra income.Beyond compliance, we focus on financial literacy as a growth engine. Proper tip reporting strengthens your team's access to mortgages, car loans, Social Security, and disability benefits, raising the professional profile of stylists and estheticians. We discuss why many who tried booth rent are returning to strong employee salons, how to read clean financials, and where owners slip on deductions. Heads up for 2026: many workplace meals and celebration meals lose deductibility, while international and cruise conference deductions have tight rules—plan with your CPA before you spend.If you're heading to our NEXT event in Austin, bring your year-end statements and questions. We'll help you tighten reporting, protect cash flow, and make smarter bets using break‑even and ROI.

Episode 10 – Choosing Peace Is the Power Move (How Stability, Clarity, and Balance Actually Give You Everything You Want)The Reset You Actually Need For a long time, hustle culture convinced us that being busy meant we were getting somewhere. In Episode 10 — the final episode of The Reset You Actually Need , we explore why choosing peace isn't giving up on ambition, but refining it into something sustainable, intelligent, and far more effective. This episode breaks down: Why hustle culture confuses motion with real progress How constant urgency fragments attention and fuels anxiety Why peace of mind increases performance rather than complacency How balance isn't a compromise it's an optimisation strategy Why inconsistency creates anxiety and the illusion of “falling behind” How overstimulation kills clarity, creativity, and fulfilment Why slower, long-form thinking leads to better decisions and deeper satisfaction We talk about the gap between where you are and where you think you should be and how that gap is often the source of chronic anxiety. Not because you're failing, but because you're trying to sprint instead of stabilise. Choosing peace doesn't mean doing less. It means doing the right things, consistently, without burning yourself out. This episode is about redefining success so you don't have to escape your own life to survive it. This episode concludes a 10-day mini-series designed to help you reset your mindset, rebuild self-trust, and step into the year calm, clear, and self-led. Learn more about your ad choices.

This episode originally aired as Episode 152 on January 8, 2025. You know… I've felt like an outsider most of my life. Lil' bit on the outside. And of course I've had my share of hard No's and reeejection. And… but… each rebuff and snub is taking us closer to our shadow territory, to the beautiful, unhealed stuff that's waiting to be healed. I recently taught a class on rejection in our CENTERED Collective, and it was a tender one. We've strung the diamonds for you: In this episode of WITH LOVE, DANIELLE I'm teaching on: The meta-function of rejection. Every spurn, every rebuff points to our inability to accept all parts of ourselves Exactly why rejection is an advanced class in self-acceptance How we stand in our power to heal from rejection, without bypassing or bravado How to choose responsiveness and consciousness over numbing out and running away. This is the work. This is how we transform our repetitive pain into deep esteem.

Diamonds may be a girl's best friend, but no one said they had to be real. This week on SUPERWOMEN, I'm joined by Melinda Maria, founder and CEO of the $40M jewelry brand that's redefining luxury. From selling handmade pieces in Starbucks to seeing her designs on the red carpet, she's built an empire without caving to investors, gimmicks, or the pressure to conform. We discuss how focusing on one thing helped her brand stand out, making “fake” diamonds feel more aspirational than the real thing. Two decades in, Melinda still owns 100% of her business, crediting every major decision to what's right for the brand, not her ego.

This week on the pod, we were so excited to talk to Karen Walrond. She's the author of books like The Lightmaker's Manifesto, Radiant Rebellion, and In Defense of Dabbling. Her words about the importance of kindness, self-compassion, activism, and even anger were exactly what we needed to hear coming out of this past weekend of joyful protests. Our mission here is to help women make a difference in their communities without losing their shit, and the subtitle of The Lightmaker's Manifesto is actually “How To Work For Change Without Losing Your Joy,” so clearly we had to get her on the show as soon as we could! In the interview, she emphasized the natural rhythm and cadence to activism. Anger can be a useful spark, but kindness and love are what keep the fire going. Rest and recreation (re-creation) aren't optional — they're necessary to keep getting up every day and fighting for our values. When our neighbors need to take a breath, we can speak up in their place. And when we need a moment to rest, we can trust that they'll step in for us. “Activism” might sound overwhelming, but much like the No Kings rallies, it isn't actually scary. It can be a beautiful intersection of self-care and community.As Karen says, “Joy comes from intention, self-compassion is a non-negotiable, and kindness is a power move.” We couldn't agree more.For a transcript of this episode, please email comms@redwine.blue.

Respect isn't soft — it's the sharpest power move in any negotiation. Buy The Book: Leading with Respect: Adventures of an Off-Price Fashion Pioneer: https://www.amazon.com/Leading-Respect-Boardroom-Marcy-Syms/dp/0806544813 Most people think negotiation is about leverage, contracts, and numbers. But Marcy Syms — former CEO of Syms clothing stores and author of Leading with Respect — knows the real power comes from something far deeper: respect. In this conversation, Marcy shares how being underestimated became her secret weapon, why culture can make or break multimillion-dollar deals, and how trust and regard are the hidden currencies behind lasting success. From walking into boardrooms as the youngest woman on the New York Stock Exchange to navigating mergers where culture ate strategy for breakfast, Marcy reveals how respect isn't “soft” — it's the sharpest strategy you can bring to the table. You'll learn: Why being underestimated can give you an edge. How to turn disrespect into leverage in high-stakes negotiations. Why 70% of mergers fail — and how culture and respect could save them. How to walk away from deals (and jobs) that don't honor your values. Whether you're negotiating in business, leadership, or your personal life, this episode will change how you see respect — not as a weakness, but as the ultimate power move.
