  2. Finding Your Edge (with Laura Huang)

    5 SEPT.

    Finding Your Edge (with Laura Huang)

    If you’re a founder, or a leader, or aspiring to be either, you know in your bones that building a business is nothing but a boatload of hard work, more hard work, and then more hard work after that. Of course you need to do other things to succeed, especially as a woman. You have to overprepare. Be the smartest person in the room. Exude persistence, tenaciousness, relentlessness. But if you’ve got all that going on, conventional wisdom tells us that if you put in the labor, you’ll reap the rewards. But what if hard work alone isn’t enough? Laurie and her guest Dr. Laura Huang, a distinguished professor of entrepreneurship and innovation at Northeastern University, discuss Laura’s recent book, Edge: Turning Adversity into Advantage. Because hard work alone may not get you to success. But finding your unique edge, in any situation, will.   For more episode takeaways and show resources, go to https://inspiringwomen.show/leadership-lab/.   Stay up to date with us on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram at @LemonadaMedia.    You can find Laurie McGraw on Instagram @inspiringwomen_podcast or on LinkedIn at https://www.linkedin.com/company/inspiring-women-pod/.    Or listen to The Inspiring Women podcast here: https://inspiringwomen.show/.     Buy Laura’s book, Edge: https://www.proflaurahuang.com/edge   Joining Lemonada Premium is a great way to support our show and get bonus content.

Podcasts avec bonus en cas d’abonnement

  • Lupita Nyong’o knows what home feels like. But where exactly is it? In Mexico, where she was born? Kenya, where she grew up? Or the States, where she’s spent the past 20 years? Like Lupita, millions of Africans are spread out across the globe following family, searching for love, building futures and creating stories. It's these stories – wild and messy, intimate and joyous – that she wants to hear. Welcome to Mind Your Own, a storytelling podcast navigating what it means to belong, all from the African perspective. Join Lupita as she shares tales of her own and dives into the lives of real people finding their way in new worlds of every kind. Production by Snap Studios at KQED, ad sales and distribution by Lemonada Media.

  • Legacy Talk with Lena Waithe is a love letter to Black women in entertainment. Emmy-Award winning writer, actor, and producer Lena Waithe sits down with trailblazers like Sheryl Lee Ralph, Jenifer Lewis, Debbie Allen, and more, to discuss their creative process, their journey, and how they became the incredible women they are today. Legacy Talk is more than just a series of interviews; it’s a documentation of the stories and experiences of women who shifted narratives, broken barriers, and inspired a generation. Legacy Talk with Lena Waithe, from Hillman Grad and Lemonada Media, drops November 12 on all platforms. And if you want to see all the magic unfold, catch the full episodes on YouTube.

  • Good sex is all about good communication. And we believe honest conversations are the best way to get there. That’s why we’ve asked duos of all types to open up to each other - no host! - about pleasure, intimacy and what turns them on. Listen to hear intimate chats, sexual revelations and playful moments between friends, lovers and everyone in between.

  • To be human is to fail – period. And not just to fail once, but to fail a lot. As the author Samuel Beckett said: “Fail again. Fail better.” This saying means a lot to me and my family – so much so that my daughter got a tattoo of it. Why are we, and so many others, so deeply concerned by failure? And if it’s something we all do so often, why are we so afraid of it – especially those of us here in win-at-all-costs America? In this podcast, I sit down with successful, thoughtful people like Ben Stiller, Bette Midler, Sean Penn and more to talk about failure – or what they labeled “failure,” but what was really an unparalleled opportunity for growth and revelation. I even want to delve into my own hardest moments, when I wrestled with setbacks, shame, and fear. We’ll still fail again. And again. But maybe if we fail better, we’ll feel better -- and maybe if we can all laugh together in failure, that's a start.

  • Hello, and welcome to my podcast. I first went viral on TikTok after telling the story of how I got stuck buying 100 tacos on a first date. Since then, it’s been a wild and crazy ride. I now have millions of eyeballs watching my videos on a daily basis (which is just a terrifying number of eyeballs, honestly). Each week on my podcast Funny Cuz It’s True, I’ll be sitting down with my favorite creators, friends and comedians to find the stories that have stuck with them and changed their lives in small ways. Not so funny moments that have become funny over time. I want to know how they handled these situations and learned to laugh about them years later. How do they do it? Great question, I’d love to tell you (but you have to listen to find out).

  • We make a lot of choices, every single day. Some explode, some implode, most we barely remember. Each week on Choice Words, Samantha Bee sits down with people she admires to examine the biggest choices they’ve made in their lives and the ripple effects those decisions have had. What’s a story a journalist took a chance on that changed history? A vote that a politician never should have cast? A song lyric a musician came up with in the shower that made them instantly famous? Sam’s made a lot of choices, too. She may have to interview herself about starting this podcast.
