    Why you shouldn’t always give 100%

    Instead of always aiming for 100%, how about focusing on balance? How about embracing progress over perfection? The "all or nothing" mindset, always pushing to give 100%, may actually be standing in the way of living our best lives. Consider this your permission to let go of this unnecessary pressure and reject the constant brainwashing. During this hectic time of year, it’s easy to feel like life is nothing more than an endless to-do list. This #newepisode is all about breaking that cycle. Life is messy and imperfect, and sometimes doing what we can—rather than striving for perfection—is not only enough, but it also creates the space we need to pause and prioritize. Let’s embrace progress over perfection and make room for peace, comfort, and joy.

    Complicated Girls Suck with Dr. Tara Walker

    Have you ever been written off as too complicated? Too emotional? These labels may not seem like a big deal, but they can serve as  a way to push aside our difficulties or invalidate our feelings. If you have ever felt not enough AND too much all at once, then this is the episode for you! Having your emotions policed is not a healthy experience. Being gaslighted is not a healthy experience. In this episode of the #advancingwomenpodcast I am here with Dr. Tara Walker to detangle and deconstruct the complicated woman stereotype. #tunein For more about Dr. DeSimone and the Advancing Women Podcast https://www.instagram.com/advancingwomenpodcast/ https://www.facebook.com/advancingwomenpodcast/ https://advancingwomenpodcast.com/ For more about Dr. Tara Walker https://www.linkedin.com/in/tara-walker-phd-2b99008 https://www.sbu.edu/academics/faculty/walker-tara-g https://taragracewalker.com/

    Supporting Women Creators This Holiday Season (and Beyond!)

    As we approach the holidays, this episode is a call to action. I encourage us all to think more intentionally about the choices we make with our dollars and our time.

The holiday season is a great time to be intentional in our actions.  It is an opportunity to #support #amplify and #investinwomen This #newepisode is about #warriorwomen coming together to champion one another's artistic, entrepreneurial, creative projects.

    Mindful Communication

    #tunein for this dynamic and pragmatic interview on mindful communication and emotional intelligence with communications strategist Anna Bulszewicz. We dive deep into communication, community, and connection.   Let’s stop calling communication skills and emotional intelligence "soft skills.” These are ESSENTIAL skills that women tend to be exceptionally good at, so let’s make sure we are acknowledging, owning, honing, and touting these super skills!   Podcast referenced in this episode (Let’s teach girls bravery and teach boys empathy)   iTunes https://podcasts.apple.com/ph/podcast/lets-teach-girls-bravery-and-teach-boys-empathy/id1569849100?i=1000576175167 Spotify https://open.spotify.com/episode/10oW7FgzU65qrJ5JAsMDrc?si=gCQUw6hxR7GtYpP_f1r2TA For more info on Anna Bulszewicz and Anna Michele Communications (AMC): Website: https://www.annamcommunications.com/ Blog: https://www.annamcommunications.com/blog/woman LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/annabulszewicz/ For more about Dr. DeSimone and the Advancing Women Podcast https://advancingwomenpodcast.com/ https://www.instagram.com/advancingwomenpodcast/

    The Season of the Witch

    “We are the granddaughters of the witches you weren't able to burn”  ~ Tish Thawer, The Witches of Blackbrook  #tunein to this #newepisode of the Advancing Women Podcast where in this #Halloween season, we set aside our stereotypical descriptions and depictions of witches, and instead look to appreciate, how generations of activists have reclaimed the witch archetype to resist patriarchal control and stand up to injustice. Let the Season of the Witch symbolize our warrior power and resistance. This episode explores the witch ethos, and how we can point to witch hunts as defining moments of injustice, sexism, and misogyny. It’s about the historical context of witch hunts in terms of the societal attitudes and beliefs that fueled the persecution of women. How accusations of witchcraft were used as a way to control and suppress women who defied traditional gender roles…and how we still tend to see and treat powerful women today.

    Emotional Intelligence: An Antifragility Mindset

    “The wind extinguishes a candle and energizes fire.” ~Taleb (2014) In this episode, I’m talking about Antifragility, a concept even more powerful than resiliency and grit. It’s about overcoming. Harnessing the wind and being the fire that is energized. As Nietzsche (and Kanye) have said…that that don’t kill me…can only make me stronger…” Antifragility, resilience, and grit are valuable tools in combating gender inequity so we can transcend and thrive. Despite the barriers that create an unlevel playing field for far too many talented, highly qualified women, it is possible that WE can have the last word in the end if we adopt an antifragility mindset. #tunein to harness your emotional intelligence superpowers!  #antifragility #grit #resilience #transcend #thriveReference The 4Ps Advancement Model™ https://advancingwomenpodcast.com/4ps-advancement-model-problem-patterns-process-proficiency/ Nassim Nicholas Taleb (2014) Antifragile: Things That Gain from Disorder.

    Weaponized Gratitude & Gratitude Shaming

    Do you ever feel guilty for not feeling more grateful?  Guess what? This is a classic example of “it’s not your fault, but it is your problem.” Have you noticed an increase in using positivity and gratitude as a means of control and superiority? A weaponizing of gratitude where it’s being wielded to minimize someone's experience? In this episode, we explore weaponized gratitude and gratitude shaming. Our feelings are valid! No problem is "too small to matter” and being told to be "grateful” when we are upset isn’t helpful or kind, it’s manipulative and invalidating. “Enforced gratitude is weaponized gratitude. It's not helpful and, very often, it's harmful. So, let's start opting out.” ~Becky Mollenkamp We are human beings, not squirrels. We are complex, and beautifully complicated, and can feel many things simultaneously. Gratitude is powerful, but it is a gift we give ourselves. It’s a tool for creating inner peace, not a weapon to be wielded by others to manipulate our feelings or behaviors. Let’s dive into this important and timely topic. #newepisode #tunein #weaponizedgratitude #gratitudeshaming Reference https://beckymollenkamp.com/weaponized-gratitude/ https://susanarinderle.medium.com/be-grateful-but-dont-weaponize-gratitude-fe3e09157264 https://www.talklife.com/post/let-s-talk-about-gratitude-shaming Previous podcast episode referenced in this episode https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/toxic-positivity-versus-mental-contrasting/id1569849100?i=1000577719994 For more about Dr. DeSimone and the Advancing Women Podcast https://www.instagram.com/advancingwomenpodcast/ https://advancingwomenpodcast.com/ https://www.facebook.com/advancingwomenpodcast/   https://www.linkedin.com/in/kimberly-desimone-phd-mba-ba00b88

    Comparison is Kryptonite, Let’s Ditch It!

    In this episode, we talk about social comparison and how we can fall into the trap of valuing our personal and social worth by assessing how we compare to others. Whether it is an upward or downward comparison, if we allow comparison of others to dictate how we view our own lives it can steal our joy. Comparison is a Kryptonite that often makes us want more while simultaneously seeing ourselves as less.  “A flower does not think of competing with the flower next to it. It just blooms” ~Zen Shin  #tunein to this episode of the #advancingwomenpodcast to learn how to ditch comparison and stop allowing it to steal our joy.
