    024: My Strategy Is To Be Dead First. The Reality Of The Homeless Crisis For Women Over 55 with Teresa Reed

    There is a silent crisis rapidly rising in the women in our world - women over the age of 55 in Australia who are the fastest group experiencing homelessness.  This is an age when most of us plan to settle into life, adventure, community and family.    Instead an insane - yes insane - amount of them are suffering homelessness, sleeping rough and couch surfing.  Hidden in plain sight   In this episode of Raise 1000 Voices, we speak with Teresa Reed about her remarkable advocacy - The Forgotten Women Project: addressing homelessness in vulnerable women. Teresa is committed personally and professionally to helping the homeless live with dignity and security. The Forgotten Women Project anchors itself in surprisingly practical and accessible solutions to change the future for dozens of women - and in doing so Teresa is giving tangible hope to the “hidden homeless”, the vulnerable older women with no financial means to afford their own homes, or to even stay in the ‘housing market’. There are a multitude of factors that lead to vulnerable older women being homeless - including  the lack of financial education, divorce and relationship breakdown, the stigma of seeking any assistance felt by women, and the absence of affordable housing options to name just a few.  Teresa shares stories that will stop your heart and jolt your world.  And this is why her work matters - and why you simply must listen to this conversation on Raise 1000 Voices.   WHAT YOU’LL DISCOVER IN THIS EPISODE: An overview of Teresa's career and life (02:08)The importance of having a holistic view in Human Services (03:09)The discrepancy between the number of housing available and the actual number needed (05:05)Teresa’s transition journey of helping the homeless (06:48)Why a particular age group of women is not showing up in access points (08:55)Two ways that The Forgotten Women helps the homeless (11:20)What are some of the challenges in their organisation?

    023: Filthy Rich. Now Grounded AF - with Lezly Kaye

    Speaking truth to power and embracing authenticity can be a radical act in a world that often values conformity over individuality. But what does it mean to live authentically? And why is it so important? In this episode of Raise 1000 Voices, Lezly Kaye throws a light on just why it matters.  Filthy Rich, success beyond most people’s imaginations, growing businesses to $65M turnover, a marriage and a gorgeous young child, she burnt it to the ground in her shift from Filthy Rich to Grounded AF - unlocking the power of authenticity and how it helps every single one of us to navigate the world with integrity and purpose - even, maybe especially, if it goes against the norms and expectations of society. Living authentically can be challenging, especially in a world that often values conformity and fitting in. It requires courage, vulnerability, and a willingness to face criticism and rejection from others. But it is the only way to create a more meaningful and fulfilling life for ourselves and contribute to a more authentic and compassionate world.

    022: Mastering The Mind and Body for Leadership with Margy Feldhuhn

    There are endless discussions and perspectives around great leadership - but what almost everyone agrees on is that leadership is more than directing tasks and delegating responsibilities.  At it’s core it is about fostering relationships and creating a positive work culture.  Something which seems easy - but also seems to be missing from most working environments!

Margy also shares practical strategies for improving self and co-regulation skills.

Heather created the Highly Sensitive (entrepreneurs) and Leaders movement as a result of experiencing extreme burnout - questioning everything she was doing became the crucial moment she discovered she is a highly sensitive person. This led to the realisation that she needed a different approach to business and day-to-day experiences. Navigating and then codifying how to do this, Heather launched the Highly Sensitive Revolution more than a decade ago believing the creation of a space which showed leaders and entrepreneurs how to the turn the shadows of being highly sensitive into their greatest strength would in fact unleash their superpowers.   Her global movement, community and clients have proven this to be true.  With Heather’s expertise and heart for the highly sensitive she has lead the way in celebrating the highly sensitive being - and this is a conversation you do not want to miss.  WHAT YOU’LL DISCOVER IN THIS EPISODE: How Heather discovered she’s a highly sensitive person (02:12)What it means to be a highly sensitive person (06:20)Understanding how to operate optimally with high sensitivity (10:32)What makes a person stand out in a highly sensitive community (14:52)Twelve Top Shadows and Top Strengths of being a highly sensitive entrepreneur (21:39)What industry is best suited for highly sensitive entrepreneurs (23:19)The impact of high sensitives not stepping into power (25:22)Feminine voices Heather admires (27:42)The value in owning sensitivity and learning how to utilise it (29:50)The next level of the highly sensitive revolution she hopes for (32:10)Dominant shadows and strengths (33:47)Breaking myths in the world of leadership and entrepreneurship (38:55)Attributes of young Heather that are still present today (40:38) Join The  FREE Facebook Group, "Raise 1000 Voices"  BOOK A VISIBILITY BREAKTHROUGH CALL If you’re a woman wanting to step into the full power of her voice, her work and her perspective, book a 20 Minute Visibility Breakthrough Call.  We'll work together to identify: What stops you from stepping into the full power of your voice Identify where you should be playing and how to play there to get what you want Identify your next best moves in the Visibility Breakthrough Canvas  Click here to book your complimentary Visibility Breakthrough Call  Book Your Complimentary Visibility Breakthrough Call AU / NZ Book Your Complimentary Visibility Breakthrough Call USA / CDAFor full show notes visit: Raise 1000 Voices...
