And so we have events, live events, we have workshops, we have online learning. We have all kinds of tools, downloadable stuff that you can use. We have information.” - Dr. Nikki Lanier "There's something about our leaning already that casts our eyes more naturally on that body of work anyway. So we, we focus on these three P's. So the first P is power and power something that all women are increasingly having, not just white women, but just if you look at like any Forbes, I don't know, Wall Street Journal, New York Times social media posts, you see women moving up into powerful roles. When I'm talking about power, I'm talking about more career from a career standpoint and the PNL that we now have influence over the corporate vision, statements and visioning that we now have influence over and resource allocation that we have now influence over. More than not, if women would lead from the position of power through the lens of racial equity, it's a way for us to really frame differently the outcomes for the companies and the organizations and the departments that we're managing. So there's something that could be leveraged there. That's the first P power." - Dr. Nikki Lanier “We have tended to get rid of history and hide history. And women are have also experienced that from a space of our own divine feminine energy, which is a natural power that is very strong, but that has largely been erased from history as well. Just the power, that is women for thousands and tens of thousands of years. That's one thing that's been erased. But as as also black history been erased in a lot of cases. So women are especially upset about that when they really learn about it and start realizing what has been erased from us. So there's that power of the divine feminine that's also in there.” - Meghann Conter “It is home by home, community by community, workplace by workplace. we are seeing proportional fairness specific to black and Hispanic people plans, programs, initiatives, focus areas that are specifically designed to assure the accelerated amplification of the economic footing of black and brown people. So that means that you're going to have, you know, specific plans around, black and brown mobility inside of workplaces. you're going to have those conversations in your home about, like, the value of black people and brown people and, and where did racism come from and how do we think about, managing it and in this home, what we stand for. So there's like specific conversation, specific programs, initiatives undertaken for Black and Brown. But those programs and those initiatives take into consideration what has happened. So the other thing that would be true in the world that we're looking to create is that we are teaching the history of black and brown people. What happened to black and brown people? We're teaching that that's K through 12. Not a chapter in a book.” - Dr. Nikki Lanier Links: Nikki’s Website - Learn about The Dames: Qualified Women Business Owners Register for a Dames Virtual Roundtable: Guest Bio: When asked why she has focused so much of her professional life on advancing racial equity, Nikki Lanier will tell you it was an assignment passed to her "in utero".

But it becomes something that is leverageable, that you can see the impact and the return if you set up the business model properly”. - Jessica Fearnley “I think a lot of entrepreneurs, you know, we're not good at creating systems. And so in addition to feeling like I have a million other things I need to be doing, it's not the type of thing where we're like, ‘I'm going to sit down and write out an Excel sheet on what this process looks like’. That's not how we function. We're visionaries. Right? And once I figured out that it didn't need to be me who creates the processes, because I couldn't when we all of a sudden realized we needed them, I actually turned to my assistant and that's what she excels at.” - Catherine Mattice “It doesn't matter what size the organization is, what the organization is. Once you've devised a system and process that you take your clients through, that is the point at which you achieve the next level of freedom in delivery.” - Meghann Conter “I find that to be the number one challenge that women have when they come into the Dames is the imposter syndrome that they feel. Whether they're running a $150,000 business or an $11 million business, it doesn't matter. That is the number one problem. And what's really cool is that once they come in and they come to their Think Tank Circle, which is our mastermind calls at their level, and they start hearing the challenges that the other women at their level are facing, they're like, ‘okay, I am not alone. I'm not the first person who's dealt with this’. And then they're able to say, ‘okay, holy cow, in a matter of 15 minutes, we just solved my biggest problems’” - Meghann Conter Links: Catherine’s website - Join The Dames virtual roundtable: Book a discovery call to work less and earn more: Guest Bio: Catherine Mattice, MA, SPHR, SHRM-SCP, is the founder/CEO of , a strategic organizational development firm focused on helping organizations create respectful workplace cultures and specializing in turning around toxic cultures.

[00:52:48] Esther shares where to find her book and announces the upcoming release of the Spanish version of the workbook. Quotes: “It was almost like this whole constraint around me. And even when I left that job, and I'm sure so many of the listeners can relate, and to entrepreneurship, how many people told me, you're making a mistake, you're giving up something that everybody wants and covets. … It's hard when you hear those things because you're like, am I? I don't know, am I being ungrateful? Am I being selfish? Right? And I had to sit there and say, actually, I'm not, because I'm going to create something bigger and it's going to have space for the people in that organization, but also create the space for everyone else outside.” - Dr. Esther Zeledón “I don't believe in the word failure because you're heading towards a mission vision. You’ve got to test, like I see it more like a science experiment. You’ve got to test all these different ways of getting to that vision. It's just a test. It's like it failed. Not you failed.” - Dr. Esther Zeledón “If only 20% of the people in the world know what their purpose is, I would say the 80% it's because they're afraid to actually look for it, because they don't think that they'll ever find it, and/or they'll figure out that their purpose is something completely different than what they're doing.” - Meghann Conter “If you are going to be a successful entrepreneur, you realize that you have to have an attachment to your vision for the world as an individual and ideally speaking your business should be attached to that vision, and the mission that you have should be a vehicle that helps you get toward that vision, because then you're actually living in impact, you're living in purpose, you're living in power, and you've created something that's bigger than yourself.” - Meghann Conter “It's like the more things change, the more things stay the same. I think as we get more rooted and I imagine for all of us here talking today and probably for our listeners as well, the more you are in entrepreneurship, it's that journey inwards, isn't it, that we need to understand ourselves better because when we have a problem, the business has a problem. And there's always that kind of parallel.” - Jessica Fearnley Links: Esther’s Book - Join The Dames virtual roundtable: Book a discovery call to work less and earn more: Guest Bio: Dr. Esther Zeledón (Dr. EZ) is a master of making dreams work.

019 - Building Resilient Leadership with Teresa Vozza 04/10/2024

019 - Building Resilient Leadership with Teresa Vozza In this episode of the 6 to 7 Figure Women Podcast, hosts Jessica Fearnley and Meghann Conter were joined by Teresa Vozza, an award-winning leadership expert and executive coach.

What we discussed: [00:01:09] Introducing Teresa as an expert in resilient leadership.

[00:10:21] Reclaiming resilience and the impact of societal expectations and support on resilience.

[00:16:46] Three tips for building a foundation of resilience, adaptability, and agility for corporate leaders.

[00:23:08] Recognizing and adapting to the right business model for sustainable entrepreneurial success.

[00:39:49] Discussion on the unique and universal impact of the pandemic, potential unaddressed trauma, and the need for resilience in facing mass depletion and trauma release in the future. [00:45:28] Direct messages to ideal clients, addressing desires, fears, and the importance of focusing on deep desires. [00:47:53] Teresa’s message to burnt-out corporate executives, emphasizing the need for self-investment and gaining clarity before making career decisions. Quotes: “So much of resilience is about what I like to call intelligent energy management. It's not just self-care and the process of taking bubble baths. It's great if that floats your boat, I'm a big fan myself, but it's really a process of asking yourself, where is my energy right now? In my business, in my role, in my family? And where am I leaking? Where do I need to plug the leaks?” - Teresa Vozza “We don't need more learning opportunities. That's not what resilience is. The way I like to look at resilience is it's this ability to resource yourself in the moment, to know what it is that you need so that when crisis, adversity, volatility, whatever hits, you are able to meet the occasion. It doesn't mean you don't get ruffled, it doesn't mean that you don't experience some levels of stress. It just means that you have the bandwidth and the capacity in the tank to be able to meet the challenge.” - Teresa Vozza “I was actually just looking up the definition of resilience, because it's interesting how the way that you interpret a word is so important. So it's either the capacity to withstand or recover quickly from difficulties in toughness, or the ability of a substance or object to bring it back to shape or elasticity. … If you build a foundation by being an adaptable and agile leader, aka you are somebody that has elasticity and you have flexibility, you are going to be better equipped to just think about, you know, handling a ball coming at you and you’re elastic it's going to bounce off, whereas you're rigid and it's going to just leave a mark.” - Meghann Conter “That's definitely something that I speak to women about often - Just that sense of ‘I trust myself’. Something that I often hear clients say is like, ‘I don't know what to do’. And the thing I always want to say is, ‘yeah, you do’. You do know what to do, but you don't trust yourself or you're not able to listen, or you're moving too fast and you can't kind of pick up the signals that your body is sending you. But I do think there's a huge piece there about self-trust. I think that builds a ton of resiliency because ultimately then we don't need to look outside of ourselves.” - Jessica Fearnley Links: Teresa’s Website: Join The Dames virtual roundtable: Book a discovery call to work less and earn more: Guest Bio: Teresa is an award-winning leadership expert, executive coach, a keynote speaker, writer, and the former Chief Human Resources Officer for a Fortune 500 company.

I mean, like internet coverage is at 99%. Over 90% of people are on social media, like everything is on social media there. And people know about stuff that we sometimes even don't know here. And they are in this transition phase where they're opening up the country from being very closed and it was really difficult to go, and you couldn't even get a tourist visa, to where you now can get a tourist visa on arrival.” - Corina Goetz “63% of the Saudis are actually under 30 years old. So they have to get skills, they have to learn things from people that have done different things, you know, like personal development. These are all things that have just such a massive opportunity out there. And I don't think people realize and I think not just in Saudi, but if you look at obviously the UAE and like Dubai is a little bit more advanced with some of these things, but you have Qatar and you have all of these different places that people may never even have heard of, and there is one thing there they want to invest in into their countries, and they have the money to do that. So it's a really great way of expanding your business and looking at new markets.” - Corina Goetz “When we apply that to the whole global perspective, there are so many places that we maybe haven't even been to or wouldn't think of where there are just these booming markets that really require the expertise that we can bring.” - Jessica Fearnley “That journey from 6 to 7 figures and surrounding yourself with other women who are impassioned by business growth, who are impassioned by personal growth, and who are in active pursuit and active ‘taking in’ of that information are transforming our lives and transforming therefore our families, therefore our local communities, therefore our national communities, and then the world.” - Meghann Conter Links: Corina’s website: Corina’s newsletter: Join The Dames virtual roundtable: Book a discovery call to work less and earn more: Guest Bio: Corina Goetz, founder of Star-CaT, is deeply passionate about the Middle East and the realm of hospitality.

That's what I'm going to do, because I want to demystify this mark so that women can see that you don't have to have two heads or six arms in order to do it. So I would bring these women into our events in Denver, and that's what we still do, and interview them and just have them describe what are the keys that they feel to getting to that level.” - Meghann Conter Links: Perfect Pitches by Precious: Join The Dames virtual roundtable: Book a discovery call to work less and earn more: Guest Bio: Want to learn how to take your sales, investor, or elevator pitches from trash to straight CASH?

We also discuss the importance of aligning with company values, learning from failures, respecting employees, and understanding their needs, and share our practices for creating a positive work environment. What we discussed: [00:02:48] How entrepreneurs often unconsciously create toxic cultures and the need for intentionality in shaping company culture. [00:09:11] The three pillars of a healthy work environment. [00:10:28] Creating a culture where people can do their best work. [00:13:01] Finding the right balance between challenging oneself and having the necessary resources and support to succeed. [00:14:12] Creating a sense of fun and collaboration in teams. [00:25:06] The importance of shaking up patterns and defining values in creating a positive company culture. [00:27:46] Using storytelling exercises to co-create values with the team.

The second best time is today.” - Aga Bajer “I think that there are some really exciting and important things that we need to have consciousness of as we are building our businesses, because we don't build a bad culture on purpose, but we do it without realizing, because we're building it without realizing that that's actually what we're doing.” - Jessica Fearnley “My top two values are fun and love. And so everything that I've created in the Dames is all about a culture of fun. In fact, we have an annual funference instead of a conference that we just had last week.

And I think we carry that into our entrepreneur life and further make ourselves smaller by feeling like we have to do everything for everyone, and so I think that people pleaser in most of us is another thing that actually does make us smaller because anything that's important to us is the last thing that happens on the list." - Heather Roberts "I think sometimes there’s a huge pressure on us as leaders to be more, be impressive, be bigger… I often find the biggest challenge is to be self-accepting and to play to my strengths instead of feeling like I've got to take on a ton of strengths that I don't actually have." - Jessica Fearnley Links: Heather Roberts, Founder Extraordinary Women: Boundaries Business and Boobs: Join The Dames virtual roundtable: Book a discovery call to work less and earn more: Guest Bio: Heather Roberts is a successful entrepreneur and business mentor who specializes in helping high-achieving women create a business that aligns with their busy lifestyle.

Meghann Conter "Leadership is everyone's opportunity. It is everyone's responsibility. And the only way you can show up from a leadership position with others is by leading yourself first.

Candy Barone "When you start to realize like, wow, everyone's looking at the world through a different lens, it can just be so helpful." Kaitlyn Carlson "I think the other dimension to human design is it's teaching us how to be with others.

Your boundaries express what you’re willing to tolerate and how much effort you’re willing to put in. Adding boundaries to your life can make people critical of you. Part of the journey is to hear that criticism without receiving it. Don’t recreate the familiar, create something better. Whenever you say “I can’t”, “I won’t”, or “I don’t” call yourself out because these are self-limiting beliefs.

6 to 7 Figure Women Podcast with Jessica Fearnley and Meghann Conter - TRAILER 01/06/2023

6 to 7 Figure Women Podcast with Jessica Fearnley and Meghann Conter - TRAILER Welcome to the home of the 6 to 7-Figure Women Podcast. Meghann Conter and Jessica Fearnley are both passionate about the 6 to 7-figure transition for women in business, and we come at it from unique perspectives and different geographic locations. Our collaboration was born from a space of exploration and curiosity to address what keeps six and seven-figure women up at night and explore the ‘why that makes them cry.’ Powerful things happen when women support other women. And we are all stronger together. The world needs more 7 figure women business owners. Our companies create positive change that ripples out and transforms communities and the world. We knew that we were onto a powerful thing when in an early collaboration together, Jessica found herself completely unable to talk on air because of a sore throat brought on by Covid, and Meghann was able to speak for both of us for a full hour. Jessica felt like Meghann was reading her mind the whole time! Business Ecosystem Creator and Founder of The Dames, Meghann Conter’s vision and the work she does is to create a world where business is transformed by women. Where we have shifted paradigms and the hustle and burnout culture is torn down and all women run businesses that support healthy, aligned lives for us, our families and our communities. When women run companies that generate more money, we create dynamic company cultures, gainfully employ innovative and caring people, invest in our growth and the growth of others, and flow with more ease toward achieving our epic missions. Business Coach and LinkedIn Top Voice, Jessica Fearnley lives to empower women to create wealth and opportunities for themselves and the women around them. From her work with women consultants and thought leaders, she knows just how essential it is that women are able to charge their worth, work at their highest level, fulfill their lifelong potential, and with more agency than any other group of women, close the gender pay gap for women and minority women for good. This comes not from working harder, but working with closer alignment to their intuition and inner wisdom. In fact, Jessica’s company and ethos is all focused around Working Less and Earning More - she has been helping women beat burnout and earn the money they choose for the last 9 years, and knows she will be doing so for many more years to come. We talk about the celebrations, challenges, pressing issues, and winning strategies necessary for women on the road from 6 to 7-figures to live vibrantly in alignment with our soul’s calling in full view. We address mindset, strategies, and the personal and business growth topics that are affecting women running multiple six-and-seven-figure businesses on a daily basis. We are experts at the six to seven-figure transition. This podcast is all about that journey.
