Empowered Women Show | Fortnightly Show For Introvert Women Entrepreneurs|

Our guest this week on the Empowered Women Show is a financial coach, a money-mindset expert and experienced wealth manager with over 15 years experience. She is also a TedX speaker and has featured regularly in US national media, including Forbes magazine, the Wall Street Journal, and the NBC Evening News in Silicon Valley.  HILARY HENDERSHOTT loves what she does, but that hasn't always been the case. A corporate job in high tech marketing left her feeling depressed and on the verge of tears at the end of each day. An overwhelming desire to loose the ceiling that was her corporate job and the perceived freedom of entrepreneurship pushed her to take the leap. While working as a financial advisor in her parents' wealth management firm, Hilary saw that there was something very large missing from the conversations around money. She found that, especially among women, money mindset and money psychology were not often talked about or considered as a factor in wealth management and future financial wellbeing. With

This week's guest on the Empowered Women Show works with entrepreneurial women across the globe, she enables them to grow their business by helping them escape the 'white noise' to find clarity in their direction. And she does this all while juggling three children under the age of five! A former 'Jill of all trades', our guest has over 20 years experience as a corporate PA, where she was involved with corporate events management, HR management, and office management. However, self-sabotaging behaviour held her back from her dream for over 6 years, she worked in a job she hated held back only by a fear of failure. But after falling pregnant with her second child only days before returning to work from maternity leave, she took the leap and resigned from her job. At 40 years old, her positive 'you are never too old to learn' mentality was a driving force. ANNE CLARKE is now a very successful Business and Life Coach, and a Virtual Assistant. This 'corporate gal' turned entrepreneur is a strong believer that whe

Welcome back to the Empowered Women Show. This week's guest overcame extreme shyness to become an international award-winning graphic designer and successful entrepreneur. At only seven years old, CATHY BROADWELL took to her mother's collection of self-help books in a attempt to make friends. She's come a long way since then. After graduating from school and college (with a degree in graphic design), she climbed the corporate ladder, and landed the prestigious title of Creative Director at a full service ad agency. She loved her job very much, until one day she didn't. Laser eye surgery to fix her sight left her with a reinvigorated sense of purpose and after ongoing frustrations at work, Cathy took a calculated risk and quit her job. She went on to start her own, very successful design business which has thrived and while she admits that it was one of the scariest things she has ever done, she is a strong believer in overcoming your fears to find what truly makes you happy. She has lived her entire life push

In the first episode of the new season, we welcome Lisa Berkovitz. We'll talk about how to find your "soul sweet spot", how to step into and thrive at the next level of your life's work and how to overcome the resistance that comes as a result of that.

“You need to be more outgoing. Louder. More energetic. You need to seem happier in your job.” That’s the kind of feedback our guest this week was always getting. For ten years she worked her butt off. Fought to fit in. Tried so hard to be something she’s not. But it never got easier. Every day she’d come home from her stressful TV production job feeling exhausted. Resentful. Burned out. This story is one so many of us share, here at the Empowered Women Revolution. Instead of standing firm in our own quiet power, we believe we need to change to suit our environment. Follow the rules set by extroverts. Become someone else, to meet their expectations. But KATHERINE MACKENZIE-SMITH knows the truth. As gentle introverts we have what it takes to change the world – if we embrace who we truly are. Leaving her ten-year career behind her, Katherine has found her true place in the world – coaching introverts just like her to find their own way to shine. She joins us here to share the story of how she finally found her v

Feel like the business world just isn’t made for introverts? Think that to get ahead you have to be pushy, loud and brash (and simply hating the thought). Longing for a safe place where you can get support as you try to find your voice? If that’s you, this weeks’ episode of the Empowered Women Show is just what you’ve waiting for! An introvert entrepreneur herself, our guest this week devotes her life to helping people just like her, through a phenomenal coaching business created especially for introverts. BETH BUELOW has built a beautiful community to provide support, insight and empowerment to women just like you. She’s here today to share her journey, her struggles and her stunning insights into how introverts can flourish as heart-centric entrepreneurs. Get your personality working for you!

Is there something crazy you’ve always wanted to do? A big, hairy, scary dream that feels so huge that you can’t take it seriously (but so right that you can’t let go of it either). Always wondering what would happen if you just went for it? Quit your job. Sold your house. Walked away from everything you own and started living as your authentic self? Our guest this week on the Empowered Women Show has done just that! After 20 years living life by others’ expectations she realised something had to change. When a shocking loss left her foundering she picked herself up and found a far better path to follow. Today, with her husband by her side, DORENE WHARTON is travelling the world, living and learning through amazing, joyful, challenging experiences. Totally committed to a life of personal growth and global citizenship, Dorene and Troy have built an amazing online community to help others do the same. Sharing knowledge, experiences and practical tips on how to live a life of meaning, they are inspiring thousand

You’re just setting out in business and there’s sooooo much on your mind. You’re fired up. Exhilarated. A little bit (or a whole lot) terrified. You’re dreaming big dreams and figuring out how to make them come true. With all this going on, the yawny legal stuff barely gets a second thought. It needs to get sorted at some point, of course – but it’s such early days, right? You don’t have the time yet. Or the money. And where do you even start? But there’s a voice, in a corner of your mind, saying “What if something goes wrong?” This week’s guest is here to make sure that it doesn’t. Like so many of the amazing women in our community she’s a bold entrepreneuress who quit a stunning corporate career to follow her dream of helping others. The founder of ground-breaking legal marketplace Legally Yours, MIRA STAMMERS moved heaven and earth to bring her vision to life. Facing daily rejection and escalating self-doubt she pushed through her fears and built a fabulous community of talented lawyers, who offer affordab

For many creative, intuitive entrepreneurs, managing the financial side of the business can be a painful chore. Boring. Maybe even a little scary. Of course, we’d like to make money – but it’s not what drives us. After all, we’re in this to help people, not to get rich. And it’s one or the other, right?   Actually, dead wrong! And this week’s guest on the Empowered Women Show will show you why.  She’s a certified financial planner with more than 20 years’ experience - but ‘Abundance Activist’ ELLEN ROGIN takes a far from traditional approach to finance. This compassionate, visionary entrepreneuress (whose superpower is helping people feel calm about their money) believes that passion, service and generosity are key to achieving prosperity.  Her incredibly successful business is founded on combining creativity and intuition with savvy financial planning – and she joins us here to show YOU how to build your wealth the feminine way.  Watch now to discover: Why it’s vital to shift your mindset from scarcity to a

Our guest this week is a 100% authentic, visionary woman with a crystal clear purpose in life. But she wasn’t always so certain. Educator, trainer, consultant and coach, YAMINI TOOHEY has guided hundreds of women to joy and success in the world-changing work they were born to do. She is focused, driven and passionate about her work - and spends her life helping others to become the same. So you’ll be blown away when you hear about Yamini’s journey. The complex path that led her through four continents (and some very surprising jobs) in the search for her true calling. She joins us here to share how she finally discovered her real purpose. Why she waited nearly 10 years to pursue it. And the amazing lessons she learned along the way (that can help YOU live a revolutionary life and make YOUR difference in the world). If you’re ready for a life without ‘what-ifs’, watch now to discover: What happens when you get vulnerable on purpose The three keys to living a revolutionary life How to tell if you’ve found your

You have something incredible to share. Your purpose. Your passion. Your unique gift for the world. That’s one of our deepest-held beliefs here at Empowered Women. We are drawn together by our sacred mission to serve others and share our message. By the knowledge that we were born to make this world a better place. Our guest this week is a tireless activist for that truth. Teacher, guide and business coach, KAREN GUNTON spent years learning - and teaching - the mechanics of successful business. Showing people how to build strong foundations. Think strategically. Master key business skills.   Then she realised that wasn’t enough. That she needed more - much more - to truly make a difference. That what she wanted to create wasn’t a business, it was a lighthouse. A mighty tower of strength and inspiration, shining the way for all the people who need it. Karen joins us to share her incredible journey from teacher to business alchemist. To help you ignite YOUR spark and become the dazzling beacon you deserve to be

You have to be perfect to succeed in business, right? Be ‘professional’. Disguise your personality. Hide your flaws. After all, no one’s ever going to believe in you if you show them who you really are… That’s what so many women really believe. It’s the story we’ve been told all our lives. The constant soundtrack of our inner critic. It holds us back. Keeps us small. Convinces us to tone down, pull in, and shut up - when in our hearts we want to dream. To sing. To share our wild, joyful passion with the world.  But it couldn’t be more wrong - and this week’s fabulous guest on the Empowered Women Show is here to prove it! At first, she walked that path. Moulded herself to fit the ‘norm’. Built her business around other people’s expectations. It didn’t fulfil her – and it didn’t work. Then she threw caution to the wind, let her personality shine, and began to soar. Today, JULIE PARKER is one of Australia's foremost business and life coaches. CEO and founder of the incredibly successful Beautiful You Coaching Ac

It can be scary stuff, running a business. There’s this constant, nagging fear about what you might be missing – especially when it comes to the legals. You don’t know what you don’t know (or what might go wrong if you don’t get it right). This week’s guest on the Empowered Women Show will change all that. This amazing woman quit a stellar legal career to follow her dream of helping others. She gathered her courage, faced down the naysayers, and set up on her own. And then it got hard. Like many of us, she had no idea what she was doing at first. But through research, determination, listening and a hell of a lot of trial and error, she figured out how to build and run a successful business. Today VANESSA EMILIO is all about helping others do the same, through her fabulous online legal service. And this week on the Show she shares some of her incredible expertise, to help YOU set up thriving business - and protect yourself from legal threats. 

You’re going to ADORE this week’s guest on The Empowered Women Show. She’s a perfect fit for our community. This woman is one heck of an achiever. She had the guts to make it as only the 10th female partner at Deloitte’s – and then walk away because it wasn’t fulfilling. She’s the founder of a fabulously unique business that has an incredible impact on others. (All while raising 4 children, would you believe?) And at her heart she is a lovely, nurturing, caring woman, with a passionate drive to help others. JULIA BICKERSTAFF joins us here to share her incredible insights on building a business out of the work you love. Watch now to hear her story of ‘accidental’ success and reinvention. Discover how she beat the two biggest challenges facing any women entrepreneur. Find out why running a successful business is simple (as long as you have the right recipe).  Also in this episode How she fought to find her voice – and what finally made the penny drop Why it takes a village to raise a business Why entreprene

This week on the Empowered Women Show we’re really going to CHALLENGE YOUR THINKING.  Does business success meaning making millions?   Does a lifestyle business have to be humble?  Is it bad business to turn away clients?   If you want a life and business that really suits YOU, you’re going to LOVE what this week’s guest has to say.  She works when she wants to. She does exactly what she loves. She has space in her life for her pleasures and passions.  She’s achieved everything she set out to do. BY HER OWN MEASURES, she’s successful. And who gives a hoot what anyone else thinks? Like so many of the amazing women in our community, CHRISTINE LIVINGSTON followed the ‘wrong’ path first (and totally rocked it, btw). But career success was never enough. She quit, and everyone thought she was mad. She consulted for a while, but it still wasn’t right. So she gathered her courage and set up on her own. And that’s when things went really crazy!  

You’re going to be BLOWN AWAY by this week’s guest on the Empowered Women Show. She’s a bold, brave, ballsy entrepreneur who can WOW a crowd. Set a whole room roaring with laughter. Reduce powerful leaders to tears. She’s mesmeric. Dynamic. Larger than life. Oh, and she’s also an introvert. JENNIFER ELLIOTT, CEO and founder of Integrity and Values, is one of Australia’s leading experts on effective leadership. She’s built a million-dollar global business from a single, humble workshop. She’s given literally thousands of people the tools to voice their needs and speak with assertive power. And she’s achieved it all by having zero tolerance for playing small. Jennifer joins us here to share the fundamental secrets of assertive communication. To describe her path from conventional quiet girl to game-changing entrepreneur. And to explain why great leadership always starts with compassion and empathy.

This week’s guest on the Empowered Women Show has an amazing story to tell. A story that leads from debt and despair to a wonderful, meaningful, wealthy life she loves. ALICE CRAWLEY’s incredible journey shows just how much a woman can achieve when she puts her heart and mind behind it.  In just a few years Alice racked up a terrifying $185,000 of debt across two continents. With no way to pay it back, she lived in denial and hid her habits from everyone she knew. Guilt-ridden, terrified and deeply ashamed, she shopped herself happy - and spiralled ever deeper into secret over-spending. Today, Alice is a fabulous, successful and wealthy entrepreneuress. And as a guide, coach and powerful mentor, she’s helped women across the world transform their relationship with money. In this episode she shares how she faced up to her actions and the feelings behind them. How she doubled her salary and cleared her massive debts within five years. And why today her life is devoted to helping other women everywhere to do the

Welcome once again to the Empowered Women Show.

Jen joins us here to talk about her amazing journey - from grand show biz dreams, to a limitless life of heart-led creativity.  She is here to share what it truly means to live life without holding back. Why she simply can’t do something unless she believes in it. And why saying NO goes hand in hand with saying YES to your true calling.  

Welcome back to the Empowered Women Show! We have someone super special with us this week, who has an incredible story to share. The amazing TAJCI CAMERON performed in the Eurovision Song Contest at the age of just 19, becoming a pop sensation across central Europe. But just 2 years later she walked away from the money, the fame and the adoring fans to literally start her life over on another continent - alone and unknown, with absolutely nothing to her name.  Today this courageous, inspiring woman is a world-famous singer-songwriter, blogger, motivational speaker and host of popular multi-platform show Waking up in America. Her mission is to help others everywhere silence their self-doubts, embrace their true authentic selves, and start living the lives they were born to live. She bares her soul with us here on the Show, sharing the vulnerability and fear she felt behind the façade of her ‘perfect’ life, and explaining how she found the strength to jump off the carousel and reclaim her power not once but TWI

She joins us here to talk about the personal struggle that inspired the idea for her crowdsourcing site Sourcebottle - and the massive obstacles and frustrations she faced in challenging the status quo and forcing changes to deep-seated habits across the media sector.
