If you’re overwhelmed by a billion IDEAS -From DEI to business generation… Or feel like you’ve tried everything… (Except committing to one thing) I made this for you. In my own work, I’ve FAILED to get clients… BEFORE FINALLY cracking a CODE To selling out group programs and filling my advising roster of tech execs. I (still!) HATE this notion of picking one thing! But once I tried it 😂 I see clearly that focusing on ONE IDEA AT ONCE brings super-momentum. To you + your programs + ideas. If this helped you, Future Thought Leader 2024 is ready to help you find + focus on your ONE (first) thing. Let’s get you KNOWN FOR something. Not UNKNOWN re: a bunch.

I went to a networking event last night with 120 of London’s brightest female founders and here’s why it was great: 💗 The environment was welcoming but not overbearing. I have been to a LOT of work events over the years, and I’ve never felt less apprehensive about introducing myself and sparking up a conversation . Plus I didn’t feel like I was being sold to, hit on or recruited (…we’ve all been there 🙄 ) 🙅♀️ No blinding egos in the room. Not one woman I spoke to was flexing for the sake of it… Just women being confident and passionate in the businesses they are building. 💪 🤓 It wasn’t all small talk. The evening was broken up by a fascinating talk from Women of Web 3. Although I love a tech bro as much as the next person, it’s pure magic to hear the ideas that come from an all-woman panel discussing the best ChatGPT prompts or the industrial use cases for Vitrual Reality. More of this please! 🤝 I connected with women from transport & logistics to parenting tech to DTC to green energy and learned so much about spaces I know nothing about in a very short time. What it taught me: it doesn’t matter what industry you’re in, start-up and scale-up founders face many of the same big challenges. 🍕 The pizza was decent Thanks to Female Founders Rise for an inspiring evening +Look forward to more in the future.

Being a woman (50% of the population) should not make you "diverse" - and yet the stats don't lie: look at the difference between equity raises for male and female-led businesses. Fortunately, women like Shaa Wasmund MBE are making it their mission to make the world more equal, more faster. If you're a female founder, check this out 👇

Closing out #WomensHistoryMonth with a bang❗️Thank you CNBC En Español for featuring me along side Latina Fortune 500 C-Suite Executives, journalists, artists, start up founders, social pioneers and the list goes on.

I’ll post the exclusive link to grab your seat in the comment section below. P.S.S. The translation of the advice I gave on the graphic: It might appear easier to settle because the journey to getting exactly what you want can be lonely and frustrating, BUT would you rather regret settling, or regret not focusing on getting what you want? #Latinasinbusiness #inclusion #diversity #founders

Everyday (but especially today and this month), we celebrate two of our founders, Allison and Katherine. They are powerful forces for good in this world. You'll find them inspiring others while leading by example, teaching you a handshake that has traveled the world, asking really powerful and thought-provoking questions, and just being a dang good time to be around. We are proud to be a woman-owned and managed business. #InternationalWomensDay #InternationalWomensMonth #womanownedbusiness

Travelling back to #Anglesey after attending another fab Female Founders Rise event at Kindred in London—a summer celebration of FFR service founders, with discussion, bubbles, pizza and doughnuts. 2 amazings hosts Emmie Faust, and Sarah Ellis Davies, and 3 inspiring speakers Ozlem Tuskan, Susan Walbrook, Dr. Dupe Burgess, all sharing their own experiences of #impostersyndrome, on overcoming it, and the daily challenges of silencing the inner critic. I first heard the term imposter syndrome about 20 years ago, when confiding in a co-worker about crippling feelings of anxiety, lack of confidence; "That's imposter syndrome, everyone gets it" they said. At least I knew what it was, and it did help knowing that I wasn't alone. And I think that's what's so powerful about FFR events. Being able to hear such inspiring stories first hand, then share our own experiences with peers in a safe and welcoming space, is truly empowering. And the result? Stronger women leaders, who then build stronger, successful businesses. Lovely to see Fiona Brownlee FCMA, Chloe Davies again and wonderful to meet Tina Jennings 🌟 Change Expert, Celia Harding, Sarah Ellis Davies. Special thanks to Susan Walbrook for the impromptu 💪 pep-talk I needed for an important meeting coming up. #goteamsusans 😝 A gloriously sunny evening (chucking it down back at home), super-chic venue, and great company—thank you Emmie Faust for building this community. If I could bottle up and sell the positive feels I get from these meet-ups, I would make a killing. 🤑🤑🤑 #femalefoundersrise #femaleentrepreneurs
