I have always been an advocate for women using their voices and skills to make a big impact in the world. But so often, we get caught up in the drudgery that we forget what significant actions we should take to make our businesses, and our personal lives, thrive.

Storytelling is a powerful tool. When done with intention and purpose, telling your story can help you heal from past traumas, hurts, and experiences you'd rather forget. It allows you to release the feelings and energy associated with an experience. And it lets you move out of that space of isolation, which we retreat to when we keep our stories to ourselves. But how do you begin this process and journey of healing? Where do you start? How do you even identify what stories you need to tell for you to heal?

I find it fascinating when I meet women who've turned their weaknesses into strengths, because their transformational stories are ones that inspire, encourage, & impact others in a big way.

Storytelling has always been an important part of our whole human experience. It’s how we connect with people, build relationships, and make sense of what is happening to us and around us.

Have you ever wanted to become a speaker? A writer? Where are you on your journey to becoming the speaker or writer you’ve always wanted to be? Have you even taken the first step to fulfilling your dream?
info_outlineIf you search Google, you’ll find that an influencer is defined as “a person who inspires or guides the actions of others”.
Like most people I know, I have my fair share of influencers I look up to -- those who’ve inspired me and shaped the way I live my life and run my business.
On today’s episode of The Inside Story Podcast, I’m sharing with you the top 10 women I consider to be my biggest influences. They are women whose passion and authenticity I truly admire, and who have the ability to tell their stories in a way that shines such a bright light you can’t help but be drawn to them.
My top 10 list includes:
- An early mentor and teacher
- My influencers as a journalist
- Women who influenced me as an entrepreneur
- My inspirations for elevating my voice and being authentically me
- Women coaches who have become good friends, including one who became my business partner! (I think you know who she is!)
These are the amazing women who motivate me to show up every day, continue to do what I do, and serve my people through my stories.
If I were to ask you who your influencers are, who would they be? I’d love to know and follow them, too! Send me a DM via @lightbeamers on Instagram and let’s keep this conversation going!
And if you have a minute, please share this episode with a friend and leave a review here if you haven’t done so already! 💛
