From Gabriela's bio: "In 2013 I was living in Mozambique as a diplomatic wife with a 5 year old gilr and working remotely on a succesful youth program that was originally devised to bring talented teenagers to the world economic forum. The organization that hosted the program was undergoing a deep redisign and despite the success of the program it was decided that the goals, international development through the work of youth, did not align with the organization's core mission. At that point it was clear that any professional pursue I might have would need to be something of my own creation. These were the years before remote working was normalised and the luxury of flexible remote working were not widely available. At the same time, my work which had focused on supporting the community development projects young people from our network wre implementing to tackle big issues had really changed my perspective of what a person with a passion for improving the world could do. I had met young people with devastating life stories who despite all odds, or perhaps, because of them, were truly changing for the better the lives of those around them. At that point I was convinced that I needed to find a way to continue this work and how crucial it was to support those young people who are actively working towards a fair, peaceful and sustainable world.This moment was profoundly meaningful because it really pushed me to pursue my sense of purpose. To work and have a career were always life goals of mine and being faced with the reality of having to move countries every for years made pursuing those goals really difficult. I was also deeply inspired by the young people I was working with, they opened up my eyes of how important it is to work on things you are deeply passionate about and believe in.. The realization that I could not rely on existing structures to align with my passions and professional goals was both daunting and liberating. It forced me to embrace the idea that I could, and should, carve out my own path—one that reflected my commitment to fostering meaningful change.I learned that meaningful work doesn't always fit into traditional molds and more often than not it might not be remunerated. It requires creativity, persistence, and the courage to take risks. This period of my life instilled in me the belief that creating something of value, even in uncertain circumstances, is worth pursuing. It was a lesson in adaptability, self-reliance, and persistence, which are values that continue to guide me today."Gabriela is a binational of Mexico and Switzerland, having lived in Georgia, Mozambique, Zimbabwe, Brazil, Switzerland, and the United States.

  Did you grow up wishing you looked different?  Because there was a lack of representation in leadership and in the media.  In this episode with Sheena Yap Chan, we discuss: - Why she is an Asian woman but wanted to have blonde hair and blue eyes, and what was the one small thing that allowed her to change.  - How sometimes you don't know where we're going, and why it's important to keep taking one small action that will lead to a big change overall. - What you can do to create the change you want to see, and build your personal brand.  - Why it's important to share your struggles because your identities, voices, and unique stories matter.  - How you can create a podcast that has over 1 million downloads and get a paid publishing deal with one of the top 5 publishers in the world.  - How you can let go of toxic narratives that you should be a certain way, and start advocating for yourself and setting healthy boundaries. - How you can be aware of generational trauma and shame, and embrace who you are and forge your own path.  Connect with Sheena at https://www.linkedin.com/in/sheenayapchan/.  Get a copy of Sheen's Wallstreet Journal Bestselling book “The Tao of Self-Confidence: A Guide to Moving Beyond Trauma and Awakening the Leader Within" at https://www.sheenayapchan.com/thetaoofselfconfidence.

This is an episode that feels very personal to me, and one I feel will be able to connect with so many others.My guest, Sheena Yap Chan, is The Wall Street Journal Bestselling author of “The Tao of Self-Confidence” and an award-winning podcast host who has interviewed hundreds of Asian women about their inner journey to self-confidence, which is all part of her journey to help women overcome their self-limiting beliefs and live a better life.When I read Sheena's book, I appreciated her desire to bring these cultural and historical mindsets to the forefront. Too often, we inherit limiting beliefs and behaviors that hold us back, and I really saw my own experiences reflected in those pages.These barriers of self-confidence, imposter syndrome, trauma — these are universal challenges, and I think it's so valuable that more people are openly talking about their experiences overcoming these roadblocks because, as Sheena shares in this episode, it's so much harder for us to do that without community, without stories to fuel us with inspiration.So I hope you are inspired by Sheena's story, and I'm thrilled that I can support her on her mission to help Asian Women live their authentic selves and create a stronger voice in the world.Resources:Learn more at https://www.sheenayapchan.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sheenayapchan/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sheena.yap.chan/
