    A Cure For Self Doubt?

    Is there a "cure" for self-doubt? This question stopped me in my tracks when it appeared in my Facebook comments recently. After interviewing nearly 1,000 leaders for Black Enterprise magazine—from first-time entrepreneurs to C-Suite executives and even the First Female VP of Malawi—I discovered something surprising: not one of them had "overcome" their self-doubt. Instead, they shared a powerful framework for transforming their relationship with it. In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on what really sets successful leaders apart (hint: it's not the absence of doubt). I'll share their exact reframing techniques, including a genius perspective from 50 Cent about handling rejection. Plus, I'll reveal my own journey from seeking a "cure" to discovering something far more valuable.   If you've ever felt like your self-doubt was holding you back, this episode might just change everything. Listen and let me know what you think. .................................................................................

    Feedback: Should You Accept or Reject It?

    Ever feel like you're drowning in feedback that feels more like shade than constructive criticism? Today, I'm breaking down my four-step filtering process that helps you decide whether to take that feedback to heart or let it go. Think of it like those Instagram filters we love – you can use feedback to enhance your path or let it distort your success. In this episode, I'm keeping it real about navigating workplace feedback without losing yourself in the process. I'll show you how to spot the difference between feedback that enhances your path and feedback that might be rooted in bias.   You'll learn: How to evaluate feedback based on the source and their motives Why vague feedback terms might be code for bias When to take patterns seriously and when to question them The art of seeking clarity without getting defensive How to handle feedback that doesn't align with your authentic self Plus, I'm sharing a personal story about how I had to check my ego when my manager told me I lacked empathy (spoiler alert: she was right, y'all!). Whether you're climbing the corporate ladder or building your own empire, this episode will give you the tools to filter feedback. And it’s your playbook for separating the gold from the garbage. Remember, feedback is a tool, not a directive – and I'm here to help you use it wisely. Got a workplace struggle you want me to address?   Email me at hello@kandiajohnson.com and your question might just show up in a future episode! Don't forget to share this episode with your people so they can share it with their people. 💪🏾 ....................................................................................................

    How Yoga Helped Me Heal and Lead with Confidence w/Dr/Nila Austin

    What if I told you that when it comes to leading yourself with confidence, healing from trauma, and finding peace in the chaos of life, yoga can be the powerful tool you’ve been missing—and it’s not just about flexibility or fitness? In this episode, I had an incredible conversation with Dr. Nila Austin, Director of Student Experience at DC Public Schools, award-winning educator, and my own yoga instructor (and cousin!). We dove deep into how yoga has transformed both of our lives—physically, mentally, and spiritually—and how it can help you, too. Here’s a sneak peek of what we talked about: How yoga helps us lead ourselves before we lead others Why rest and stillness are just as powerful as action The surprising ways yoga can help us heal and grow—especially how Dr. Nila’s yoga practice was deeply influenced by the passing of her little brother Plus, many people think you need a specific body type to do yoga, but Dr. Nila is on a mission to change that narrative and show that yoga is for everyone. Connect with Nila At the end of our conversation, Nila shared her vision of creating healthy, transparent, and equitable opportunities through her non-profit, GiveLand. You can follow her on Instagram @dr.soulga_yogi and learn more about her foundation GiveLand. About #4TheCulture We also discussed Nila’s #4TheCulture program, which provides students with exposure to careers in fields like cosmetology, digital photography, writing, and creative design—helping students discover their passions and potential.
