WHAT DOES WOMAN OF VALUE MEAN TO YOU?

Every woman has a tremendous amount of value, and we don’t always recognize that. Women are awesome!

YOUR ‘AHA’ WOMAN OF VALUE MOMENT

When I started getting hundreds of testimonials and cards of people saying I changed their business and life. I began to take ownership of the impact my work had on others.

At first I said thank you so much. And then I responded I gave them the tools and they put them into action.

THE PRESENT: WORKING FROM YOUR HAPPY PLACE

I’ve been a sales trainer for almost thirty years. I help people do their job better. I help with goal setting and systems. I’ve had the podcast for six years, and it’s about empowering people with inspirational stories of artists and entrepreneurs who are attempting to make a living with their craft.

THE FUTURE

We’re launching a community called subscription box. We have experts and masterclasses. We have online journaling as well.

I teach three sides of excellence:

1. Master your craft

2. Show up with a really good work ethic

3. Network and connect with others

THE LIGHTNING ROUND

I used to think I wasn’t smart enough.
What was the #1 thing holding you back from becoming a woman
of value? My first marriage. I was married for sixteen years to someone who didn’t really value me. I stayed for my children, and I realized that didn’t serve them either. I felt like a failure for not being able to make it work. When it ended, I felt free to be me.
What’s the best advice you can give to a woman who wants to
become more empowered? Discover what’s your achilles heal that holds you back. Once you figure it out, you can rise above self-doubt.
What advice would you give to your younger self? I would work more diligently at my network instead of only trying to figure everything out myself.
What’s something people get wrong about you? I’m super intense when I want to get something done. People take it to mean I’m not approachable or friendly. Not true!
How would you like to be remembered? I’d like to be remembered as someone who genuinely cared about others.
