May the 4th be with you! May 4th has become a high holiday for Star Wars fans.

Emotions of Change

April 27, 2022 05:00 - 34 minutes - 24 MB

You know there’s something more out there in the world, waiting for you, however, the thought of leaving what you know to step into something you have no clue about is debilitating. It’s not your fault. We, as humans, are wired to crave routine and continuity and any change can send our brains into a frenzy.  We know change isn’t easy but it is absolutely necessary if we’re going to live a full life. In this week’s episode, we’re taking you through the emotions of transformation to help yo...

Procrastination

April 20, 2022 05:00 - 40 minutes - 27.8 MB

You know you have to complete the project this week and yet it’s Tuesday and you haven’t focused on it at all. You still have time, you think. Instead of taking measures to alleviate the pressure, you go back to an easier task. Procrastination is an undercurrent in each of us. Some can overcome it more easily while others feel as though they are constantly racing against the clock and then kicking themselves for not doing it sooner, with stress and anxiety then hitting an all time high. In...

Anna and Elizabeth, Why We're Obsessed with These Con Women

April 13, 2022 05:00 - 30 minutes - 21 MB

There is a phenomenon going on, a thirst for uncovering and understanding stories like that of Anna Delvey, the fake German heiress who scammed New York City’s elite socialites or Elizabeth Holmes who wooed her way into the hearts and pockets of Palo Alto’s tech leaders. Whether you’re watching Inventing Anna on Netflix or reading Bad Blood, we can become sucked into the world of cons, scams and conviction. One that makes us shiver from ickiness but also, makes us curious and fascinated. I...

Too Public? Too Private? Too Casual? Where Do We Draw the Line?

April 06, 2022 05:00 - 47 minutes - 32.8 MB

Be authentic they say. Be vulnerable they say. Be a thought leader they say. Expound on your industry knowledge they say. Dress casual on Fridays they say. Take a mental health day they say. We receive so much advice on how to show up in the workplace is has become a cacophony of conflicting ideas. As women in the business world, we want to know how to represent ourselves in person, online, in meetings —in a way that shows off our approachability and our professionalism. The lines have neve...

Forget Boundaries, Construct Fences

March 30, 2022 05:00 - 47 minutes - 32.5 MB

Boundaries, boundaries, and more boundaries. It is one of the most important gifts you can give yourself, especially as a woman over 40 when our entire lives could easily be spent in reaction to the needs of everything and everyone else. So why didn’t we call this episode boundaries? Because if we want to take back control of our lives, boundaries aren’t enough. We need to learn how to construct fences around everything. Fences are unmoving. Yet we get to consciously decide the kind of fenc...

Dealing with Rejection

March 23, 2022 05:00 - 43 minutes - 29.8 MB

No one likes to be rejected. It’s the absolute worst. It doesn’t matter in what context either. If you’re interviewing for a new job, selling to clients or dating, every single time we put ourselves out there, we risk being rejected.  There’s the logical part, but of course, we may be rejected, it’s part of life. Then there’s the emotional part, when we are rejected what it does to us and how it can diminish our self-worth, stamina and drive. In this week’s episode, we’re going to dig into...

Self Sabotaged by Your Inner Child

March 16, 2022 05:00 - 43 minutes - 29.9 MB

We believe we are in control of our own destiny. What if I told you you aren’t in control as much as you believe you are? I’m sure you’d challenge this statement and create a lot of proof to the contrary. You see, so many of the choices we make, the thoughts we have, the steps we take, the moves we make are actually nothing more than repeated automated patterns from our past. This thought can be frightening. Our inner child can do a number on us and sabotage our success.  In this episode, ...

Is Your Identity Tied Up in Your Job?

March 09, 2022 06:00 - 53 minutes - 37 MB

If someone asked you, who are you… would you immediately start talking about your role at work, your business, or your overall career?  Somehow this has become the norm.   Gen X women have lost their identity.  Our worth has gotten wrapped up in what we do professionally. We use the success of our career or business as a way to measure up.  Here’s the thing, we’re so much more than what we do during our day. When we own our worth from who we are, not what we do we become unstoppable.  In...

You Know You're A Gen Xer When

March 02, 2022 06:00 - 54 minutes - 37.4 MB

Have you recently been reminded about something from pop culture or day-to-day life that happened from the 1980s and you think to yourself, well it was only 20 or so years ago? Well, think again, it’s more like 40 years ago!  We know!  No matter how much time goes by there are still things about the 1980s that feel like yesterday, make us laugh, and are worth remembering.  In this episode, we’re going to have a little fun and go back in time… way back in time.  The Worth+Value=Wealth Pro...

Are You Underpaid? How to Leverage the Labor Shortage

February 23, 2022 06:00 - 47 minutes - 32.5 MB

“There aren’t enough workers to go around.” When you hear Analysts, CEO’s and Economists all talking about the same thing, it can really make you sit up and think. We’ve entered a new era for American workers. For the first time in decades, we’re seeing the transfer of power from employer to employee. And it feels good! The shortage in the labor force is apparent and it isn’t getting better anytime soon, in fact, studies show the gap is going to continue to widen. This means employers have ...

Think Like a CEO

February 16, 2022 06:00 - 44 minutes - 30.5 MB

You may see the title of this podcast and think… PASS…. I have no interest in being a CEO be it in a corporate setting or even as an entrepreneur.  But we’re going to ask you to put your thoughts around what a CEO is or isn’t.  CEO thinking isn’t just limited to the professional world.  You see, the ideas around thinking like a CEO are transferable to whatever you do for a living and wherever you are in your life.  In this episode, we’re going to explore the minds of CEO’s, how they think...

Putting the Workhorse Out to Pasture

February 09, 2022 06:00 - 41 minutes - 28.5 MB

FILO was our mantra. First in. Last Out. Lunch breaks mean grabbing your packed salad or running to the reception desk to pick up your GrubHub order quickly to get back to your desk and eat while pounding away on the project. We’ve all been in the workforce to recognize the phenomenon that plays across every business corporate America (and entrepreneurs for that matter) are divided into two camps, the workhorse and the coaster.  Maybe I’m being extreme, however, if you find yourself in the...

Carrie, Charlotte and Miranda Are Managing Midlfe...Too

February 02, 2022 11:00 - 1 hour - 43.5 MB

As we enter our mid-40s and 50s, the way we own our worth can look very different from how we owned it or thought we owned it in our 30s.  At this point, we’ve had real-life experiences including some not-so-pleasant experiences that have shaped us. When you’ve walked in some uncomfortable shoes, it’s often the point we have a Step into My Worth Moment and realize you know what? I need to take a stand for myself first!  It’s refreshing to see our friends Carrie, Charlotte and Miranda have ...

Thought Leadership

January 26, 2022 06:00 - 37 minutes - 26.1 MB

A thought-leader is someone who is seen as an authority in their field. They are the person who’s ideas and concepts you look forward to consuming. Whether you’re a career woman or an entrepreneur, positioning yourself as an authority is one of the most important aspects propelling your professional success. In a world where there is a cacophony of noise, content, thoughts to weed through, how the heck do you stand out, make an impression and say anything new or different? Today, we’re hel...

So You Want to Leave Your 9-5

January 19, 2022 06:00 - 41 minutes - 28.4 MB

Leaving the 9-5, it’s a dream for so many and maybe your #1 one goal this upcoming year.  We get it. We left our 9-5s too.  While we could go on and on about strategy and tactics, today we’re going to talk about how leaving your 9-5 behind and building your own business will be the biggest course in self-development, confidence and resilience one could ever take on. We'll talk about what to expect and how to get through some of the most difficult hurdles.  In this episode, we’re talking a...

Overthinking, Overtalking and Overcompensating

January 12, 2022 06:00 - 40 minutes - 28.1 MB

You’ve gotten the job offer – you know you should be thrilled but you can’t stop overthinking everything you said in the interview and panicked that you may not have one small skill you may need. You’re on a discovery call with a potential client and you find yourself going on, and on, and ON about why you're the right person to provide this service. Or maybe you are the person who overdoes everything. Giving away services for free, volunteering to pick up the slack in the office.  Overthin...

The Dreaded Question, "Tell Me About Yourself"

January 05, 2022 06:00 - 35 minutes - 24.4 MB

Um, hmm, ahh, you see, well...When you’re asked the simplest question, “tell me about yourself,” do you get all tongue-tied not knowing where to start, what to say, what not to say, leaving you frozen? Or do you fall in the other camp where you drone on and on...and on and bore yourself and the person across from you because you haven’t strung together anything relevant, interesting or consistent? Generation X Women struggle with talking about themselves and it has been hurting us both in ...

December 29, 2021 06:00 - 32 minutes - 22.1 MB

If you’ve been part of our relaunch and our personal journey as a Modern Gen X Woman, you know how much we believe in a North Star, a guide, a flashlight in times of darkness. It’s why we created our Manifesto which is getting a ton of incredible feedback and it’s because it is empowering and a guide of how to show up in the world. Your Word of the Year can be just that.  Mimi and I have become very good about setting intentions every day when we work together, or before interviewing a gue...

It's our 100th Episode! You are crushing it at work. You’ve curated an impressive A-List team and they are hitting on all cylinders. You couldn’t ask for a better work scenario.

The Modern Gen X Woman's Guide to Thanksgiving

November 24, 2021 06:00 - 45 minutes - 31.3 MB

We are not going to be talking about being grateful, giving thanks and gathering around the table with loved ones smiling. We know this and you can get this support from any podcast you want this week.

Do You Have a Worth Deficit? Take the Quiz!  In this episode, you’ll learn how to deal with the bi...

Gen X Women, Stop Blending In

November 17, 2021 06:00 - 50 minutes - 35.1 MB

As the forgotten generation, we’ve become extremely comfortable fading into the background, being the background singer, operating as the number two. There are times when quiet confidence is the absolute right play. However, it can’t become the default mechanism if you want to become a professional thought-leader and a game changer. In this episode, we’re discussing the importance of stepping forward, out of the shadows and into the spotlight because now is the time to make the impact you’v...

Is the Midlife Crisis a Crisis?

November 10, 2021 06:00 - 43 minutes - 30.2 MB

When you hear midlife crisis do you think about your neighbor driving around in a brand new red convertible after divorcing his wife of 20 years? This was the image portrayed for years and it was believed men were the only ones to go through a midlife crisis, but we have since recognized it is not true at all. A midlife crisis is a phase, a transition of identity. What if, instead of calling it a midlife crisis, we rebrand it to a midlife growth spurt? Where the change may be fast and hard ...

Women + Money

November 03, 2021 05:00 - 44 minutes - 30.9 MB

A Harris Poll taken earlier this year showed people age 45-54 (Gen X) believed they were least likely to see wealth as an achievable goal. And yet, new data from the Fed Reserve Stated Gen X gained more wealth during the pandemic than any other generation increasing their aggregate net worth by 50% from first quarter 2020 to second quarter 2021.  We are seeing a sea change, a time when we, Modern Gen X Women, can see the possibility of acquiring the success and wealth we want and it has to ...

Do You Have a Worth Deficit?

October 27, 2021 05:00 - 46 minutes - 31.7 MB

As a professional woman, do you ever feel unheard and unseen? In your career are you working really hard yet not seeing the growth you want? As an entrepreneur are you struggling to actually bring in any significant cash? These two problems may seem disconnected— like they have nothing in common, but they actually do. We’ve coached over a hundred women to the high point of their professional success. Through this process, we uncovered the one common denominator keeping smart professional w...

Diverse Thinking for Innovation

October 20, 2021 05:00 - 54 minutes - 37.4 MB

In September, Ford Motor Company hired top Apple Executive Doug Field to run a secret division at the company.  Another big move in Ford’s history, back in September 2006, Ford hired Alan Mullaly, former EVP at Boeing, as CEO of their company. Why am I mentioning both of these big, out-of-the-box hires from Ford? It isn’t because I own some of their stock, it’s because these moves were considered bold. For the longest time, Automotive was very insular, hiring those from within the same sec...

Say Hello to the Modern Gen X Woman

October 13, 2021 05:00 - 38 minutes - 26.7 MB

We’re proud to be Gen Xers.  But we’re done being the forgotten generation and we’re over the Oprah article the New Mid-Life Crisis and the follow-up bestseller Why We Can’t Sleep. It’s time to change the rules and the conversation around being a Gen X Women.  We’ve been deeply connected with Gen X Women, heck we are Gen X women and we’ve decided to not contribute to the dismissive and depressing conversations around who we are.  Instead, we’re here to shift the perspective around what i...

Why Staying Calm Stresses Us the F^ Out

October 06, 2021 05:00 - 48 minutes - 33.3 MB

We all aspire to live a life filled with calm tranquility. A life where we let things roll off our backs and are able to flood our bodies and our minds with a sense of peace whenever anything begins to upset us. Could you imagine stress becoming a thing of the past or not having anxiety? These are our hopes, especially as Generation X women who have been over-compensating, over-working and over-committing in every place in our lives. Trying to stay calm is another thing on our mental checkl...

I Don't Want to Work for a Woman

September 29, 2021 05:00 - 51 minutes - 35.4 MB

It is astonishing to know how many women come through our doors and comment on steering clear of working for a female boss. Of the hundreds of women, about 65% stated they would consider not taking a job because they’ve had such bad experiences working for women. Eek, this perspective isn’t helping our position in corporate America, at all and we almost didn’t want to do this episode because we don’t want to perpetuate an existing problem. However, we know, not addressing it doesn’t mean it...

The Great Resignation

September 22, 2021 05:00 - 38 minutes - 26.5 MB

In April 2020, the United States lost 20.5 million jobs, the highest monthly job loss on record. Fast forward this crazy year and in April, 2021 4 million people resigned from their jobs, which is the biggest spike on record.   What does this mean for Gen X women? Are we opening the door for a bigger gap in opportunities and pay for women?  OR is it the opportunity we’ve been waiting for?  In this week’s episode we talk about it all.  The secret to professional success?  You must, must, ...

September 08, 2021 05:00 - 30 minutes - 20.9 MB

LOOK OUT! Watch out for the…!!! This is how many of us live our lives. On complete autopilot, putting our car into drive and just going, without any specific destination in mind. You may think, ‘Hey! Wait a minute! I’m heading to work. I’m making doctor’s appointments. I’m being a great mom.” Yes, to all of this. But are you truly intentionally, purposely and deliberately deciding what it is you want in your life? This week, we’re talking all about living with an intention, declaring what i...

Have you ever thought of something only to have it come to fruition a few days later? What about thinking about a friend you hadn’t contacted in a while and then you hear ‘ding’ and she sends you a text?

August 04, 2021 05:00 - 18 minutes - 12.9 MB

We are smack dab in the middle of midlife and for many of us, this is the time where the regrets start creeping up and creeping in.

Summer Shorts: You're an Apple Tree

July 13, 2021 05:00 - 16 minutes - 11.2 MB

In today’s world, we focus so much on progress, getting things done and all of it instantly. We want to see the fruits of our labor… literally. However, what we need to recognize is how the fruit, while wonderful, delicious and a very rewarding outcome, isn’t quite all there is in growth. When we are attached to only the outcome, we never recognize how much we grow, regardless. Apple trees only produce fruit for a short period of time every single year, but does the apple tree stop growing...

Welcome to our Summer Shorts Series where each week  we talk off the cuff about a single idea, quote, concept, inspiration or current event.  Shame is an emotion we keep locked inside of us. It’s like a weighted blanket that keeps us feeling heavy and it becomes hard for us to move.

Shame is a painful feeling of humiliation or distres...
