The Power of Storytelling and Embracing Vulnerability

From early-morning coffee rituals to the deep impact of storytelling, join us in an intimate exchange about personal growth, vulnerability, and empathy in business. Dive into the world of trust-building, the significance of personal connections, and the challenges of navigating life and loss as we peel back the layers of what fuels success and resilience.

In our daily lives, we often find ourselves in a world where the idea of vulnerability is usually avoided, especially in business settings. We uncover the compelling power of storytelling and its role in fostering trust and human connections, both in personal lives and the corporate world.

In Episode #37, we dive into the personal challenges some women face outside their professional roles. We  discuss the "sandwich generation," which juggles care for aging parents while raising our own children. These personal insights humanize business figures and allow clients to see us as not just service providers but as individuals who share similar experiences and struggles. The ability to be vulnerable and the importance of connecting with people on a human level beyond the corporate logo.

From managing the emotional rollercoaster of an investigation surrounding family law matters, to guiding clients through the intricacies of intergenerational wealth transfer, we highlight the undeniable link between personal trials and professional success. 

In an age where business is increasingly person-centered, embracing vulnerability becomes a strategy for success. As daring to share professionals, we want to demonstrate that behind every decision, every transaction, and every interaction lies a story waiting to be told—a story that could be the key to understanding, trust, and a lasting connection.

Don't miss our candidate discussions on coping with loved ones' dementia, balancing work and self-care, and the transformative practice of mindfulness. Chantal is such an amazing human. I absolutely love our chats.

The Inspirational Journey of an Unbreakable Spirit and Empowerment

Resilience is often born out of adversity, and Marg Hachey’s story exemplifies the unyielding spirit that defines a true leader. Marg, an inspiring woman and an entrepreneur, has not only made significant strides in her professional life but has also bravely overcome personal challenges that would make many falter. Her tale of survival, strength, and leadership serves as a beacon of hope and motivation for women across the globe.

Marg's journey into the limelight did not commence under the brightest of stars. It was the discovery of her cancer during what was supposed to be a routine checkup that marked the beginning of a story that would later inspire thousands. The attending physician, noting an abnormality during her ultrasound, uncovered masses on both of her kidneys. Within a rapid six-week period, Marg underwent surgery, removing her left kidney and part of her right kidney. Today, Marg is a 15-year cancer survivor, a testament to her fortitude and tenacity.

Her indomitable spirit was further demonstrated when, on the very day of learning about her cancer, she attended her company's Christmas party, putting on a brave face and expressing pride in her team's achievements without divulging a word about her own struggle. This event served as a defining moment, illustrating her remarkable ability to carry the weight of personal hardship while simultaneously upholding her responsibilities as a leader.

Marg's entrepreneurial spirit was ignited at a young age, with her first business venture commencing at the tender age of 10 when she sold guppies to a local department store. This early experience set the stage for the serial entrepreneur she was to become. Her business acumen and drive led her to start her own tech company in the '80s – an era when women were hard-pressed to find financial backing in a male-dominated sector. Marg turned this challenge on its head, overcoming barriers with unabashed courage.

I've always had a very positive attitude. You know, it's the glass half full.~Marg

Her leadership skills were not just confined to the business realm. A family crisis led her to reassess her work-life dynamics, compelling her to delegate more, ultimately reshaping her approach to leadership. It was through vulnerability and the empowerment of her team that she orchestrated the resurgence of her business after a shocking corporate upheaval that had left her staff locked out and bewildered. She not only recovered but rebuilt her company with even greater success, achieving over $50 million in revenue.

Currently, Marg contributes her expertise to GroYourBiz, an organization that supports women entrepreneurs in scaling their businesses. With her past experiences in mind, she advises women on overcoming challenges while maintaining a healthy balance between personal care and professional responsibilities. Her global reach, engaging with women from Nigeria to Panama, has not only extended her influence but also brought to light the diverse and innovative businesses women are creating worldwide.

Through firesides chats and speaking events, Marg continues to share her story, advocating for the education and empowerment of women. She believes that sharing these narratives can inspire the next generation of female leaders to pursue their dreams, unencumbered by gender disparities and societal barriers. Marg lives by the philosophy of no regrets and takes every hardship as a lesson to grow, adapt, and become unbreakable.

Marg embodies the essence of an unbreakable spirit. As a mentor, leader, and visionary, she spreads the message that with a positive mindset, good health, self-care, and unwavering determination, every woman can break through ceilings, overcome obstacles, and emerge unscathed, ready to inspire the world with their unique stories of survival and thriving success.

In Episode #36 Marg and I chat about how she turns struggles into triumphs. From selling a tech company to empowering women, she embodies leadership. I love her spirit and vibe, she is truly all heart and soul!

Mindset, Community, and Taking Action: Empowering Women for Positive Changes

I had an amazing episode with Siobhan Calderbank, the managing director of talent at Aimco, about her journey, struggles, and passion for empowering women. Discover how she overcame obstacles and became a powerful leader who advocates for inclusivity and flexibility in the workplace. 

 

In Episode #31, Siobhan shares amazing strategies for navigating challenges, emphasizing priorities and self-care. She highlights the power of meditation, positive affirmations, and the ability to find relaxation by snuggling with her partner while watching a movie. 

 

This was such an amazing interview, and I absolutely love Siobhan’s outlook on the importance of mindset and belief in oneself, as well as the power of community for a women's success. She is all about open and authentic conversations because it is then that we can break barriers, find support, and create positive changes.

 

My passion for helping others learn and grow is what drives me. Overcoming challenges has made me stronger and more determined to remove barriers and make opportunities accessible to all~Siobhan
