    BOUNDARIES IN BUSINESS: "Saying NO to say YES to Growth!

    In the episode I highlight why saying and learning to say NO can offer you growth in your business and professional career. Takeaways: 1. Why boundaries are essential to sustainable growth 2. The 4 types of boundaries every professional needs: TERV - Time, Energy, Relationship and Value 3. How to say NO without burning bridges: Framework: Compliment, Decline, Redirect 4. Why NO is one of the most powerful leadership tools in your toolbox. Here’s my challenge to you this week: 👉 Identify one area where you need to say no. Maybe it’s an obligation, a client, a task, or even a mindset. Say no — kindly, clearly, and confidently — and notice what saying yes to yourself makes possible. And if this episode resonated, share it with a fellow entrepreneur or professional who could use a boundary breakthrough. You never know who needs this permission today. Thanks for listening, and until next time — protect your YES by honoring your NO.

    STANDING IN THE GAP: A SEAT AT THE TABLE

    We had a great time on Saturday, October 12th at LIU Brooklyn, networking and talking about the Topic: "A Seat at the Table". This was the beginning of our Standing In the Gap, fire side chat series and it was transformational. We gained so many insights and was empowered to take up our seat at the table, pull up a chair or even build your own table. Some of the key takeaways: 1. You do not have to be in the room to have a seat at the table. 2. Elevate your voice. Your voice is powerful. 3. Safeguard your table by having the right people around you and legally guarding your intellectual properties. 4. Are you seated at a particular table for too long and blocking your blessing from an even bigger table? 5. How are you creating change and influencing others to pull up a chair?6. Are you preparing the other person to take your seat when you move on. A special thank you to professor @joan Pierre for securing the space for the event, for hosting and for her continued support. Thanks to our amazing speakers, ⁠Shauna-Kaye Brown LEC, LLB.⁠ Daphnee Sanon and ⁠Josephine McFarlane, LMSW⁠ for such great insights. Thanks to the We Women Elevate team: ⁠Molly Creese, MBA⁠ ⁠Tynesha N. Frazier, MBA⁠ Nadia K. Raphael, MBA

  6. Microwave Networking

    Microwave Networking

    In this episode we talk about how we are living in a society where everything seems to be microwaved or expected to be. Engaging in professional networking with the intention to get results fast can be counterproductive and can lead to disappointment. Here is why you should avoid using a microwave approach to networking: 1. Relationships takes time and are more valuable when you take time to get to know the person and build rapport. Quick transactional interactions fail to establish the trust and people can sense when you are fake. 2. Insincerity - People can smell bull a mile away. They appreciate the genuine interest and value in connections. A rushed approach shows your interest in self serving endeavours. 3. Missed Opportunities for True Collaboration - Relationship that are build on trust, authenticity and good rapport leads to valuable opportunities such as mentorship, collaboration and long-term partnerships. Your microwave approach will surely hinder these opportunities. 4. Do you want to be know as the selfish networker? Reputation is everything. No one will want to engage with you if your only purpose is for numero uno 5. Limited Network Growth: Quick approach might lead to a lot of networkers added to your network in the beginning but these connections are less likely to be maintained or grow over time. Deep relationship naturally expand your network as trust and mutual support develops. To foster effective professional networking, focus on building genuine relationships by showing interest in others, offering help, and maintaining regular, meaningful interactions. Remember you have to invest the time and effort to get your ROI. If looking for a job make sure to do your research, develop your brand, and adopt a networking strategy that is well thought out and not engaging in quick superficial tactics.
