Here’s Just a Taste of This Episode’s Talking Points
Mitchelle’s Challenges That Made Her Reach Out & Change
At first thought, Mitchelle’s wanted to get help with advancing her career as an in-house lawyer.
But after our first conversation, she walked away thinking she might need a little bit more help. Cause I had her thinking about some internal work that she needed to do.

She realized that it wasn't just executive presence, which she thought was what she needed to advance. She actually needed to do some internal work within her, which in turn would allow her to show up differently for those opportunities that would unfold on their own, as opposed to chasing after something.
What Mitchelle Thought Executive Presence Was & It To Be
Initially, Mitchelle thought it was showing up to meetings prepared to put on a show. To put on a show in a way that appealed to the individuals that were at the table. She thought she needed to know how to show up in a way where she can be seen and viewed as an effective leader and not an angry black woman.

But after the work we’ve done so far, she realizes that It's really not about how she shows up, but how she determines her worth. Before she was allowing others to determine her own worth as opposed to her knowing her worth and just showing up as a person that needs to be valued.
Other Topics We Covered on the Show:
A light bulb moment for Mitchelle realizing that it was her internal issues that were hindering her to thrive in life.
What happened to Mitchelle’s childhood?
The difference in Mitchelle’s personal quality of life and how that's changed.
Benefits of moving and being happy.
Mitchelle as a cancer survivor and the story behind that.
Mitchelle also shared three things on how to be able to get to the other side of your joy.
