Podcast Episodes

This week, you’re hearing the first of a two-part mini-series on what I’ve noticed about our socialization and participation in patriarchal structures such as engagements and marriage. On this episode, I’m sharing the history of the practice of engagement, how it’s shaping our experience of it today, and why women sometimes face disappointment as it relates to their engagement expectations.

My guest this week is one of my favorite coaches and a graduate of ACFC. Jamie Lee is a triple-certified executive coach who helps smart women who hate office politics get promoted and paid better by blending the best of practical neuroscience and mutual-benefit negotiation principles. She’s all about helping women accelerate their leadership and advance their careers by advocating for what they want, and she’s here to share her framework with us.

Your Life GPS is a concept that was birthed during a recent mastermind meeting with my colleagues in which we were having a discussion about what motivates us. Whether it’s financial goals, having a certain kind of lifestyle, or a mission that we’re oriented to, all of us have a destination we’re trying to move towards.

I’m joined by fellow coach and Society member Ali Ryan to discuss why the end of a relationship doesn’t have to destroy you. Nearly all of us will experience a breakup at some point, but it’s what we do after the breakup that really matters. Ali shares the personal story of one of her breakups and what happened when she intentionally started focusing on her relationship with herself.

There can be so much pressure for our vacations to be perfect, which presents a great opportunity for practicing self-coaching. In anticipation of my upcoming vacation, I found myself in a swell of disappointment, and I’m here to share how I coached myself on this episode.

This week, you’re hearing a conversation I had with Vikki Louise over on her podcast, Hack Your Time. Vikki and I get into a juicy conversation about our socialization around time and the thoughts and values that shape how we use time, and I’m excited to share a topic I haven’t yet explored on the podcast.
