Podcasts about women in businesses

This month on the Well Woman Show, I interview Ruth Whippman, British author, journalist and cultural critic living in the United States, and the author of BOY MOM, Reimagining Boyhood in the Age of Impossible Masculinity. A former BBC documentary film director, her writing appears in the New York Times, The Guardian, Time magazine and elsewhere. Fortune described her as “one of the sharpest minds” of the decade. Her first book America the Anxious, was a New York Post Best Book of the Year and a New York Times Editors' Choice. We discuss: The role of socializing our boys in society and the impact. Patriarchy isn't just about women, it's impacting men as well. How we can stop perpetuating the same cycles and do better. But first I want to tell you about even event coming up in Santa Fe that I love going to every year and that the Well Woman Show is sponsoring- the 5th Annual SCORE Women In Business Conference: Building Bridges and Empowering Entrepreneurs! SCORE Santa Fe & Northern New Mexico presents the 5th SCORE Women In Business Conference on Thursday, September 19 from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM at the Scottish Rite Center in Santa Fe.

Tracy Gray, our guest in this special episode, is a Managing Partner at The 22 Fund, Founder at We Are Enough, and Lead Partner at Porfolia Green & Sustainability Fund. She is an innovative and visionary leader with solid international, investment, business strategy, and marketing experience. With over 15 years of demonstrative team and project management success, including a 200% increase in project funding, Tracy is a relationship builder across various industries – from technology to venture capital to entertainment. Having an Air Force veteran for a father, Tracy spent the early years of her life in Okinawa, Japan, and lived in different parts of the US before settling in Lompoc, California, near the Vandenberg Air Force Base in Santa Barbara County. Because of this experience, she fell in love with traveling (She has already been to 42 countries!). It is also why Tracy focused on international business. Tracy shares her experiences from college and what she did after graduating, how being a B-student landed her a job at NASA, and how she ended up in the Mayor's office, which is how she came up with her strategy with The 22 Fund.Being an active citizen in Los Angeles, Tracy also tells us the importance of helping and supporting the community we live in, especially disadvantaged people who don't have the same privileges as we do. She also tells us why she pursued an MBA even after having years of unique professional experiences and how she started and founded The 22 Fund. It is the only one of its kind, investing in high potential women and BIPOC-owned tech-based manufacturing companies to increase their international sales (exporting), with a mission of creating the clean, quality jobs of the future in underserved communities. Episode Quotes: On having the courage to go after what she wanted to study in collegeA lot of research shows that when girls don't do well, we quit, and we do something else. And I hate to be a statistic, but I quit Mechanical Engineering and went into where I was really good, Math. And that's how I landed on Applied Math, Mathematical Science as my major because I still loved engineering, and I wanted to be in Aeronautics. There's no Aeronautics at Santa Barbara, so what I did is I kind of created my own degree. And thank God there was a woman in the Math Department, a Black woman, and she let me do this - create this Mathematical Science degree with Aeronautics emphasis.And that's how I made my decision. And so, if there's someone young trying to figure out their decision in going to school and listening, I would say, don't be afraid to do what you really want and to say what you want. If I hadn't said I wanted to do this and take this chance and create my own major almost, I would have had a whole different life path probably. But whatever gave me not being fearful about asking that was really fortunate. On her duty as a citizenI just am the type of person where if I'm living someplace, I've got to be active, helping, supporting the community I live in. And it doesn't matter if it's my county or my city or my micro-neighborhood; I am going to be a citizen. I feel like all the work I've done around Los Angeles is my duty as a citizen. I don't know another way to exist in the world as a citizen if you don't support where you live and support the people who don't have all the advantages as you do. On pursuing an MBAIt's kind of a societal issue for women, especially Black women. I don't want to say we never think we're enough, but we never think we have enough credibility in the eyes of others that we can do the job we want to do. And so, I knew I wanted to start my own fund, but I always thought I needed as much credibility as possible and more education. That's why Black women are the most educated demographic in the country because we get all these degrees because people think we don't know enough or aren't enough. We know we are, but we got to get it on paper. So, I wanted to get my MBA for that reason. On founding her nonprofit, We Are EnoughAll these women were coming up to me crying over a finance talk. And that is where I saw, okay, this is a deep trauma, deep work that women need to do around our money and our power around money and our being okay with power. And so, I launched We Are Enough. The only thing we do is educate everyday women on why and how to invest in women in businesses or with a gender lens on the public markets. Because when you grow women's wealth, all those 17 SDG, sustainable development goals that you hear a lot about, the majority of them are positively impacted by women growing their wealth.On their unique strategy in investing in manufacturingI knew I wanted a win-win strategy with high impact and high returns. And I wanted something that had multiple impacts. And so, I landed on manufacturing. People didn't understand that the foundation of our economy literally is manufacturing and making things and selling them abroad. So, if you're a manufacturer that exports your products to another country but you're located here, you create jobs faster, you pay higher wages, and you're more likely to have healthcare. On top of that, when you export, you have higher revenues and are more resilient and more successful.Our strategy of investing in manufacturing to increase their international sales causes our impacts. We call ourselves holistic investors, not impact investors, because we hit multiple positive impacts. It's not siloed with climate change, race, gender, economic development. We hit it all just from this one strategy in investing in manufacturing to increase their export capacity. So, our mission is to create what we call the clean, quality jobs of the future and low and moderate-income communities and increase generational wealth for women and people of color. And that all happens just by our strategy.Thoughts on Black History MonthYou've got to keep highlighting history because people want to try to erase it. And I wonder why they want to erase it. Why are they fearful? Why are they trying to protect kids from the wrongs in the world? So, I'm very informed. You can't help being a Black person and not be informed by our ancestors. It's ancestral trauma, right? It is with us all the time and it's deep. And it informs a lot of what we do. History will repeat itself if you forget what happened and we're in the middle of that right now. Another thing about Black History Month is it added LatinX History Month, Asian History Month. It added all that. And it allowed now with all the trauma around race in our country, every race is starting to see, you know, when people come after Black people, they start looking for another place to come after. They come after all of us that do not fit in a particular way they think we should be. And so, when I think about Black History Month and the history of Black people, it's a history of all people in this country, right? This isn't just my history. And it informs a lot of how people of color are treated. And so this year of the race and ethnic months, I feel like we need one month at the end called the multicultural month where we all come together and talk about the power and the beauty of different cultures and what it has built in this country.Show Links:Tracy Gray on LinkedInThe 22 FundWe Are EnoughSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/onehaas/donations

Giulia is a brand strategist and digital marketing consultant with 18 years of experience gained across the EU, Australia, Asia and the UK. She's also a passionate teacher and associate HEA fellow working at Kingston University. Giulia firmly believes in the power of purpose-led brands and in the positive impact on society that businesses can have. KnowThyBrand was first born when Giulia decided to leave the corporate world after her second child was born, in search of something with more flexibility to continue to grow her career while being there for her kids. After a while, something felt amiss, which led to Giulia coming to the realisation that her favourite projects were those she did pro bono for people in need (start-ups, mumpreneurs, community-ran organisations). Looking for a way to give back while still making an income, Giulia knew she needed to transition into a social enterprise - KnowThyBrand Women. She is dedicated to helping women in businesses to build sustainable companies and career paths through strategic branding and effective communication solutions. Social entrepreneurship is when you listen to your heart, your intuition, and let yourself be guided by what feels like the right thing to do, rather than what may be the traditional narrative about how to do good business. This is why I brought Giulia onto to Creating Social Impact podcast. In this episode we discuss:  Transitioning an existing business into a social enterprise Their business model based on working with different classes of members where the large corporations cover the cost for pro bono work The critical importance of branding when starting or transitioning a business Looking at social enterprises as more of an ethos and a model, rather than a particular type of business that does a particular type of social good Plus so much more!

Season 2; Episode 4: Leaders Don't Always Have the Answers with Christina Callas Christina Callas is a dynamic digital-retail leader who drives rapid, profitable growth for iconic omnichannel retailers. She especially enjoys growing and maximizing the operating performance for challenging business environments. She is currently the EVP and Chief Digital Officer at Total Wine & More which is known as the country's largest independent retailer of fine wine and spirits operating in over 200 super stores across 23 states – and scaling rapidly. She's worked previously at Children's Place, Hudson's Bay Company and Aeropostale. She has her MBA from Columbia Business School. Key Takeaways from this Episode: You Don't Have All the Answers · Sometimes you need to acknowledge that you don't have all the answers.  · You can give people a path forward without having all the answers.  Authenticity and Vulnerability  · People want to be authentic about who they are at work. · If you are going to ask people to be vulnerable, you must be vulnerable even if it's not your most comfortable state. Leading During the Pandemic  · Learning to respect the ways the pandemic impacts people differently and yet also being fair and equitable across the organization.  · People have demonstrated tremendous strength as people have navigated their lives during the pandemic. This strength needs to be acknowledged. · In this environment, leaders need to stop and slow down. Leadership Lessons · Ask the next question, listen, let people talk, see what they have to offer.  · “Be brief, be bright, be gone”; distill the complexity into that big idea, communicate it well and then go make it happen. · Translate your ideas into a language that the audience can understand. You can't just do good work you also have to sell that idea too.  · What's the story; tell the story if you want people to change their behaviors and do business differently. And then model that behavior. Women in Business  · We need to ensure that women in businesses are being represented in the workplace, and that everybody has an equal opportunity at mobility within the organization. · Unconscious bias is real and it's pervasive. Don't think you're top of mind for somebody because the work you've done has been great or they complimented you in a meeting. Tell people I'm interested; I want to move up.  · As you become more comfortable with yourself you will embrace your unique voice and unique point of view. · When getting feedback that's not helpful, ask questions, find out what they're really trying to tell you. Career Guidance  · Raise your hand and say yes. · Find out where you can be helpful, think about what motivates you, seek out pockets of opportunity and then figure out how to fill them.  · Let people know you're there and you're interested and ready when the opportunity arises. It's all about timing. · Consider interesting opportunities that pop up even if they might be flawed. · Don't be afraid of lateral moves.  · When there's disruptive change in business, some people say, stay the course, we know what we're doing. Other businesses say, the landscape has changed, we've got to go figure out how to meet these new challenges. Think like the second business throughout your career.

Welcome to the Cracking Content Podcast, helping entrepreneurs to amplify their expertise through storytelling, content, and PR so they can get more sales and make a bigger impact. Every business has a story to tell. Don't be afraid to tell it. In this week's podcast I have got an amazing guest for you, Suz Chadwick, who is a personal branding expert.  {0:55} Suz: I am a personal branding coach and a business coach and a speaker coach. So all the things. But for me, it's really about supporting women to become bold and powerful voices in their industry and claim their space with confidence. And so really taking a look at how are they developing their brand, what are they known for? How are they becoming more vocal and visible?  {01:46} Claire: So which content do you like creating the best? Suz: For me, I have to say that I've actually built my business on Instagram Stories. I always joke around and say I built a multi six-figure business with a cat filter on. {2:35} Suz: So for me, it's amazing at engaging my audience, but it also has been able to kind of boost the engagement and the reach on my Instagram in general. And then I find that when I get clients and I ask them why they decided to go with me or how they found me, they're like, "I listen to your podcast and I watch you on Stories just about every day and I feel like I know you."  {3:39} Suz: It's sharing that content as well in so many different avenues and forms, but it's just making sure that that message is always consistent.  {3:50} Claire: Being consistent with the message so people know exactly who you are and how you can help them is absolutely key. {4:01} Claire:I think what's interesting about Clubhouse is that they're real time conversations. And in fact, we met on Clubhouse. I think it's been a great place to network and a great way to grow an audience quickly. {6:10} Suz: Clubhouse has allowed me to expand my network on a global basis at a speed that I haven't seen in any other social platform before in a free platform. And so, yes, I can pay for ads to get into the US and the UK and wherever else, but I can literally go into a room and I've got people from all over the world. And now my network in the US is so much bigger than it was, which is amazing. And something that was a real goal of mine actually in the last year was to break into the US and build my network and my brand there. And I feel like Clubhouse is really allowing me to start to do that as well, which is fantastic. So, yeah, it's super interesting. Plus, once you start getting clients from it, once again, it does become a little bit addictive. You're like, "Maybe I should get back on." {8:19} Claire: That is the cool thing about Clubhouse, isn't it, is that you can listen like radio? So you can be doing other things. {10:43} Claire: What's made a difference to your business life, if you think of content creators or content that you've consumed? Suz: I would have to say podcasts would be the number one thing. So when I'm not working, when I'm out for a walk, going shopping, doing the dishes, cooking, whatever it is, I'm listening to a podcast. And it can be a podcast on feminism. It could be a podcast on business. It could be anything. But podcasts for me as far as content creation goes because it's on the go and it's something I can do anywhere. {13:40} Claire: So when it comes to the things that have made the biggest impact on your business, you've shared that your own podcast and stories. What else have you done that's made a really big difference? Suz: Speaking, 100% speaking. So when I speak, and I used to be a debater in school. So I started speaking when I was 16. And then when I was in corporate, they used to roll me out for corporate conferences because everybody else was like, "I'm not speaking." I'd be like, "I'll do it." And then when I got into my own business, it was so interesting. I talk about this all the time, as well, is that I think a lot of people wait for opportunities to come to them. And so I was like, "Well, I want to be a speaker." So I just ran my own events and guess who the keynote speaker was? Me. Imagine that? I'm headlining. And so I just have always created my own opportunities. {20:38} Suz: I think that to the point of content when you create great content, I call it the content ecosystem, which I'm sure you're similar. Is that when you create something where people can consume you in different formats and in different ways, I just think it builds that trust. It builds the excitement and the engagement as well.  {21:26} Claire: Choose the platforms you love and enjoy and that you're going to have fun on, and that energy will draw in the right people. We're not in this game not to enjoy what we're doing.

Michelle believes wholeheartedly in the need for education around legal concepts, particularly for creative entrepreneurs who - when faced with paying a lawyer to bore them to death - would rather run the risk of not knowing. She is enchanted by the fascinating challenge of reinventing traditional legal constructs for the needs of a new paradigm of business, basing them on principles of connection and caring rather than fear and avoidance. She creates contracts that care, demystifies intellectual property, advises on setting brave boundaries, handles conflict with empathy, and provides risk management with a woo woo twist. She is also an unschooler who can't resist any story that begins "once upon a time."

A podcast can help you build credibility and authority around your brand. Thus, it is crucial to know how to generate an audience and have a deep connection with them. Social media platforms like Facebook can help you create feedback and promotional materials for your show. In this episode, our guest Angela Henderson gives crucial suggestions on building your podcast in a way that will benefit you and your audience. She also emphasizes how podcasting is a long-term venture which needs commitment and hard work. A host needs to be equipped with the right knowledge to prosper in the field of podcasting. Tune in to this episode to learn valuable information about podcasting and to use social media platforms to promote your podcast. About Our Guest: Angela Henderson is a business consultant and an online coach for women in businesses. Her company, through one-on-one consultation, builds the foundational elements necessary to grow a sustainable and profitable business. She also has a twelve-month group coaching program and is the head of Australia’s leading four-day and three-night businesswomen retreat. Essentials to Podcast Promotion and Attracting an AudienceWhy Podcasting? To establish a human connection is one of the reasons why she started podcasting. Podcasting is a long-term strategy to provide valuable information and strengthen relationships with ideal clients. The Role of Podcasting in Business It is a combination of nurturing prospective clients and deepening relationships with them. It is also a two-way approach. Angela nurtures possible clients while making connections with them. Her audience adds value to her life, and she also does her best to help them through hosting a podcast. Is Podcast an Effective Filter? One of podcasting’s central roles is to attract the right customers. Podcasting is not a quick fix to a business; it takes time to develop shows. Thus, it offers a long-term strategy for the company. The Facebook Community Angela redirects listeners to her Facebook community for further communication. In the Facebook group, there are three questions she asks the audience. First, their struggles, whether they own a company or not, and their willingness to listen to her podcast. After those questions, she asks for people’s emails. She uses Facebook to create email lists that are valuable for marketing purposes. She also used Facebook as a tool to generate feedback. Her Facebook group does not revolve around the podcast alone. Attracting an Audience The guests share the podcast, and the host sends newsletters every week. Social media platforms such as Instagram can also be used for promotion. Facebook is also an excellent arena to promote podcasts. LinkedIn and Pinterest are also becoming great platforms to showcase podcasts. It is essential to use many platforms to reach more people. Incite curiosity among your audience to entice them with your episodes. You can post snippets or teasers. Guests and Solo Episodes It is crucial to include yourself in the show since podcasting is a long-term venture. It is counterproductive to rely on guests. Integrate case studies to improve the show and exemplify the benefits of business coaching. Solo episodes require more preparation than those with guests. She writes the entire speech for the show to exude organisation toward the listeners. Generating Websites Make sure that your websites are optimized and formatted correctly before redirecting your listeners to the site. Webinars are crucial to your business; thus, invest properly in them. Resources: Russell Brunson’s Expert Secrets Connect with Angela through her website and Facebook.
