This month marked my five-year anniversary as a coach. Time flies when you're having fun! When a milestone like this comes around it is natural for me to do some reflecting and I’m excited to share some of the memories I’ve been thinking about.
Read MoreI joined Jory Fisher on her live radio show, Heart & Soul, to chat about what Hear Her Roar really means. Interested in being seen and heard? Catch the recording of the show here.
Read MoreI set out to make 2020 the year had my roar heard for more people in different communities and audiences. And as part of that, I recently sat down with other female leaders and entrepreneurs to record five different podcast episodes to share my story and what I know about leadership development. It was incredibly fun and I can’t wait for you to hear those podcasts. Keep an eye on my social media feeds so you won’t miss them as they are released over the next couple of weeks and months.
Today’s blog is going to cover a common theme that popped up in every single podcast conversation: How to feel nourished as a leader and how to actually allow your community to nourish you.
Read MoreToday’s blog is inspired by a conversation I just had with my cohost, Mery, on our podcast, Coachtaku.
(If you haven’t checked out Coachtaku yet, I highly recommend it. It's about making anime your new life coach. We go into the lexicon of amazing anime – both retro and current – and point to the life coaching themes that occur in these shows. We even offer some coaching pointers to some of the characters, as if they existed in real life. It's amazing.)
The way coaching and animate transitioned into leadership coaching, this week, was during the recording of an episode around coaching teams. Specifically, how do you elevate the voices of every single member of your team?

This podcast is all about making anime (Japanese animation) your life coach. It’s been a project that my good friend Mery J Trochez Alberto and I have been talking about since February. We have a couple weeks’ worth of episodes lined that we’ll be releasing every Friday at 9:00 a.m. EST.
Read MoreJas and Jo of the Abundant Culture podcast brought me onto their show to talk about what it takes to become your best self as a leader. I had so much fun talking about empowerment, permission, and all things coaching. Click the link to listen.
Read MoreMy Facebook feed recently reminded me that I had reached the 4-year anniversary of the first time I posted my Hear Her Roar branding. It left me sentimental, grateful, and thinking about why I love what I do.
I am incredibly lucky to have been doing what I love for nearly 5 years.
Read MoreTwo months ago, I launched the Leadership Gremlin Quiz: A free resource to provide some whimsy and wisdom to your leadership development. I created the quiz with two goals in mind: 1) Appeal to anyone who loves a good personality quiz, and 2) Develop a way for someone to create awareness around the strengths and weaknesses of their current leadership style.
Read MoreI usually talk about the kind of leader that you are. This week, I want to focus on the leader that you are not – or, can’t be.
Read MoreYou may have noticed that I decided not to post a blog last week. I made that decision for a very particular reason. If you live in the United States, you know about the current movements activated around social and racial justice. Last week, as a stand in solidarity with the Black Lives Matter movement, I decided to mute myself.
Read MoreLet’s talk about misogyny.
Specifically, I want to talk about the inner misogynist that many female leaders harbor without even knowing it.
Read MoreThis week’s blog will help team leaders who are struggling to move a project move forward. Keep reading if you are the leader of a team and you notice that your project results are halted or experiencing false starts.
Read MoreHey you, I see you. I know who you are. Thanks for being here.
What I know about you is that you've been looking for a sign. More specifically, you've been looking for that sign that you're okay and that it's going to be okay. I know you've been looking for it because that's usually the sign that I need too. I'm here to tell you that it is okay.
Read MoreI define a Validation Vampire as someone who craves… you guessed it… validation. And the way they crave validation can show up in a number of ways. Look for yourself.
Read MoreFor those of you who have kept up with my weekly blogs and videos, I’ve been dropping hints about a resource I’ve been developing, to support those who are looking for some direction in honing into their leadership style. It’s officially here, and it’s in a super fun Buzzfeed-esque quiz format! The Leadership Gremlin Quiz!
Read MoreThe thing about commitment is that you likely will have a hard time seeing how it relates to results in the area where you feel stuck… because you are stuck. To get un-stuck, it’s helpful to look at commitment in an area of your life that you feel is working to really see the relationship.
Read MoreAs a sneak peek at a longer interview I did for the Abundant Culture podcast, I want to let you in on one of my favorite conversations that we covered in the episode, which will be released in June.
How do you create your best leadership style? How do you adapt a leadership style that resonates with you, means the most to you, and really expresses who you are?
Read MoreAs a coach and a leader, I feel like it would be tone deaf of me to continue to create productivity or leadership content without framing it within the context of our world right now. In fact, I believe it is important to not undermine or be ignorant of how we are affected right now.
Read MoreLet’s talk about feelings. We’re in social isolation right now. For most people, this is probably the most time you have had to spend with yourself in a really long time.
Read MoreIn the wake of world events, I made the decision to launch a virtual group – “Heard: A Space for Space during Shitty Situations.” This virtual platform has become the place for people to come together twice a week to feel heard, seen, and acknowledged during these uncertain times.
