Stand Tall & Own It - Empowering Purpose-Driven Women to Lead with Authenticity and Impact
"Just be you!" they say. But for high-performing women, "just being you" hasn’t always felt safe or practical—whether it’s at work, school, church, or even at exclusive networking events. For purpose-driven women and founders, holding back can limit your impact and undermine your authenticity.
Even in a world that’s more welcoming to strong female leaders, feeling truly "safe" in your own skin is still a challenge. To lead with clarity and confidence, you must first understand your value, embrace your individuality, and recognize that the solutions you need are as unique as you are.
This podcast is for modern women who lead with purpose and are ready to embrace their full potential and create an impact that aligns with their vision and values. It’s time to find the clarity and confidence to lead in a way that’s authentic to you. Join me as we explore how to navigate challenges, honor your unique path, and make a lasting difference.

Episode 59 - A Little Kindness, Please
Feedback or Questions? Send us a text!
The 3rd facet to the tenet of Present is kindness and openness. Kindness and openness are the bedrock of being present.
You've got to try a little kindness
Yes, show a little kindness
Just shine your light for everyone to see
And if you try a little kindness
Then you'll overlook the blindness
Of narrow-minded people on the narrow-minded streets - Glen Campbell
Does this sound naïve? Trite? Let’s look at the concept of kindness today.
Intentional Optimism - Your Vehicle for Personal Growth:
- Optimistic = hope and a future
- Present - wonder, generosity, kind / open
- Energetic - industry, excitement, life focused
- Courageous - leader, adventurous, undaunted
- Wise - words, respect
- Intentional - plan, purposeful, good finances
Topics discussed in this episode:
Kindness / Openness:
- Emotions: I will feel what is happening NOW. I don't run from my feelings. They tell me things I need to know.
- Non-judgement: Every human is created in the Image of God, worthy of kindness, grace, respect and saving.
- Poor/Disenfranchised: I open my heart and hands to those in need. I have enough to share.
Ask yourself :
- What are YOUR heart attitudes regarding kindness and openness?
- What emotions does it stir up?
- Where is judgement showing up for you?
