The Business Strategy No One Talks About…That Built My Entire Career
This solo episode digs into the transformative power of giving—especially for women navigating career growth, advocacy, and the realities of living with autoimmune conditions. Through personal stories and lived experience, the conversation explores how authentic, aligned giving can open doors, build community, and spark meaningful change. It also highlights the importance of protecting mental health and honoring boundaries, reminding listeners that giving is most impactful when it comes from abundance rather than obligation. By weaving together advocacy, business strategy, and self-care, the episode encourages women to lead with their values, share their stories, and use generosity as a catalyst for both personal and professional growth.
Themes:
Giving can be a powerful force for opportunity and change.
Authentic generosity thrives when it comes from abundance, not pressure.
Advocacy often begins with personal lived experience and expands into broader impact.
Community building is a cornerstone of meaningful, sustainable advocacy.
Showing up authentically can accelerate career growth and deepen connection.
Clear boundaries protect mental health and prevent burnout.
Empathy and intuition are powerful assets in business and leadership.
