Women Who WOW!

How to get a flood of leads — without social media - The Business Journals bizjournals.com/bizwomen/new… via @bizjournals

When you’re willing to be the problem, you get to also be the solution. But not until…

If you're a #WomanEntrepreneur what is on your mind today? #womeninbusiness #SmallBusiness

World domination, of course. lol... Seriously: Another seven-figure year, but this time far more aligned income-stream-wise. HOW? The same way I’ve reached every goal in my life. With grit, determination and an absolute, unapologetic unwillingness to lose. =) #WomensCareerChat

Be very clear in what u want & accept nothing less. Create workarounds if/when u must. Stay the course & do not give in to the “devils” of discouragement, distraction or disappointment. These are just part of the game. So recognize, then remedy them. Stay true to you.

Do it. Do it bold. Do it your way. Don’t EVER accept no, if it is a clear yes in your soul. Keep going, no matter what. Don’t shirk the responsibility you have as one of the first or only women.Our daughters & granddaughters are watching. Your success matters. #WomensCareerChat

Go for the gold, woman. Keep ur vision clear & ur standards high. Whatever you see in your mind, you can achieve in the world, so stay focused, refuel early and often & run your race with vigor, pride, & the relentless grit that is UNIQUE to women w/ high driv #WomensCareerChat

It's not either / or. Work & personal avenues both present opportunities to go deeper into purpose, so create as little separation as possible. Each day, you're giving up ur life for something, so let's be diligent about living & working w/purpose. #WomensCareerChat

A war general once said 2 tell people what must be done, but not how to do it, freeing ppl to discover/leverage their genius.Greatest gift u can give women is space 2 live into (&stretch) her potential. Micromanaging = keeping the cogs in the wheel & losing the change makers

Other women have been HUGE inspirations for me, as they show what is possible. One truth that I embraced long ago is that there are NO super humans, only regular ones. This means, "if SHE can, YOU can." Period. #WomensCareerChat

I began my #bizjourney after quitting my job to be a #WAHM. Married to a teacher, I had no money, no plan, & no time to fail. What I DID have was #purpose & #passion. That 1st year, 20+ yrs ago, I made $63K, enough 2 pay bills while home w/ my growing family. #WomensCareerChat

A8: Go in like you INTEND to lead. No waiting around for permission or invitation. No proving yourself. Walk in like you own the joint. And then, do the work. #womenscareerchat

A7: The tech changes, but not the "rules:" Collaborate with others you trust in three primary ways: 1) Their INTEGRITY (they do what they say!) 2) their ABILITY (they CAN do what they promise.) and 3) their PRIORITY. (they're making your project a priority.) #womenscareerchat

A6: It offers more opportunities for women to TRULY manage their own careers, as #selfbossers #WomeninBusiness can say who, when & how much. This is TRUE freedom. So, run with it. Gigs & clients are JUST as legitimate as job offers, and often far more lucrative. #womenscareerchat

A5: Easy: Cheer them on. Celebrate them. Talk GOOD about them behind their back. And offer a hand when they stumble and fall, as we ALL do. Women aren't fragile. We're strong, able and determined. Just don't get in our way! #womenscareerchat

A4: This is sort of out of my wheelhouse, but for ANY career, I'd advise women to 1) Aim HIGH, because that is your birthright and you know it! and 2) Go in and do it your own way. Don't conform to the mediocre majority. There's nothing there for you. #womenscareerchat

A3: WOW! So many people come to mind. Ayn Rand. @ArethaFranklin @BarbaraCorcoran @jessicaalba @BethMooreLPM @PriscillaShirer @KatrinaRuthShow Ruth Bader Ginsburg @Joan_Rivers to name just a few. #womenscareerchat

A2: Don't focus on "balance," bc it's unsustainable. Instead, know ur priorities & live accordingly. There's no joy in constantly balancing. Dive DEEP into what brings you joy. Throw yourself into the things that matter most. Say NO more often, without apology. #womenscareerchat

A1: I don't juggle. Juggling requires many things I don't have as a woman. Ex: it requires everything I'm juggling be the same size/weight. This isn't real life. Instead, I live according to my PRIORITIES. These last 2 yrs have been a great lesson in priorities. #womenscareerchat
