Feminine Leadership is a Revolutionary Act

We have learned the rules, and we have learned them well.

We have learned them from the Corporate environments we have slaved in.

We learned them to survive and to try to rise, and although they never worked, we didn't think we could do anything about it. We learned to:

  • Obey the rules the people put out from above.
  • Not ruffle feathers.
  • Believe in lack and limitation.
  • Believe that "we are not powerful, they are powerful."
  • Believe that "I am not worth much, because I am not 'up there' ."

​These messages could not be further from the truth!

Zoomophobia, Authenticity in Business, and Other Breakthrough Needs

7/26/2020

I know someone who left her corporate high-level job one week before COVID hit. So did her husband. They took off for warmer climes - the Virgin Islands, to be precise - to start a Bed & Breakfast. And then - one week later - COVID hit.

What a great excuse for panic. But instead of panicking, she started looking for independent work to do. She asked herself, "What can I do to stay afloat here until I know how to do something different?" And even amidst the nervousness, she made room in her consciousness: maybe there is something I can do.

I hired her to be my Virtual Assistant until her business got going.

The reason I mention her is that she confronted the unknown, she asked some questions of herself, made room for potential answers, and she moved forward. In scary times of the unknown, we need steps that we can place our feet on with certainty. Without that, we spin.

In these uncertain times, we also have our so-called Number One fear to deal with: public speaking. Okay, it's not exactly the same as getting onto a stage and giving a talk - granted! - but I know a lot of people, a lot of businesswomen, a lot of entrepreneurs who are having fits dealing with having to be so visible on Zoom. 

I also have a friend who will not chat on Zoom with me because she doesn't like the way she looks, and she doesn't want to see herself on that medium. That's a terrible situation in which I have to miss my friend at the time I could use connections the most.

For businesswomen/entrepreneurs, the problem is equally acute. 

What do you do if you have to now do your business online? Live? On Zoom, or GoToWebinar?...and you are profoundly uncomfortable with the process, and lacking any ways of being able to check your effectiveness or appropriateness?
