This episode is about normalizing visibility, sharing what you’ve earned, and using those moments to elevate your career in a way that feels real and sustainable. </p><p><b>Layoffs and economy be d*mned</b></p> <p>Inside the Women’s Leadership Accelerator, I’m helping women land executive leadership roles, bonuses and salary raises in as little as 6 weeks</p> <p>Join us:<br/><a href='http://authenticallypowerfulwomen.com'>AuthenticallyPowerfulWomen.com</a></p> <p><br/></p>]]></content:encoded>

    <description><![CDATA[<p>Ep #278: Ambitious and Balanced Working Moms with Rebecca Olson</p><p>Being a corporate badass <em>shouldn’t</em> mean sacrificing your sanity, your family, or your success. But for so many women (especially working moms), the pressure to “have it all” still feels like <em>doing it all</em> — and it&apos;s exhausting. Today, I’m bringing you a candid, coffee-chat-style conversation with my dear friend and fellow coach, Rebecca Olson. Rebecca’s an executive coach for ambitious working moms who are ready to stop choosing between a thriving career <em>or</em> a thriving life — and start having both. In this episode of <em>Women Changing Leadership with Stacy Mayer</em>, Rebecca and I open up about the real challenges women leaders face as they climb the ladder — from chasing promotions by overworking, to the guilt that sneaks in every time you prioritize your personal life, to carrying the unseen mental load that drains your energy before the workday even starts. If you&apos;ve ever felt like you have to work harder, prove yourself more, or wait until life calms down before you deserve your next promotion...this conversation is your wake-up call.

    <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Ep #278: Ambitious and Balanced Working Moms with Rebecca Olson</p><p>Being a corporate badass <em>shouldn’t</em> mean sacrificing your sanity, your family, or your success. But for so many women (especially working moms), the pressure to “have it all” still feels like <em>doing it all</em> — and it&apos;s exhausting. Today, I’m bringing you a candid, coffee-chat-style conversation with my dear friend and fellow coach, Rebecca Olson. Rebecca’s an executive coach for ambitious working moms who are ready to stop choosing between a thriving career <em>or</em> a thriving life — and start having both. In this episode of <em>Women Changing Leadership with Stacy Mayer</em>, Rebecca and I open up about the real challenges women leaders face as they climb the ladder — from chasing promotions by overworking, to the guilt that sneaks in every time you prioritize your personal life, to carrying the unseen mental load that drains your energy before the workday even starts. If you&apos;ve ever felt like you have to work harder, prove yourself more, or wait until life calms down before you deserve your next promotion...this conversation is your wake-up call. You’ll hear the powerful mindset shifts, tangible strategies, and real-life examples that will help you redefine success <em>on your terms</em> — and step into the career (and life) you’re meant to have. If you’ve ever felt like you have to choose between your ambition and your well-being, this episode is your reminder: <em>You don’t.</em></p><p>Unlock the missing piece in your leadership development.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>Ep #253: The First, the Few, the Only with Deepa Purushothaman<br/><br/>In the corporate world, many Women of Color find themselves as “the first, the few, the only” on their teams, in their departments, or even in their entire companies. As a result, they’re often expected to adapt, contort, and conform themselves to fit into a mold that doesn’t reflect who they truly are, just to succeed. But what would it look like to create a corporate world where the talents and achievements of Women of Color are celebrated—not questioned, diminished, or undermined? And where Women of Color aren’t pressured to change who they are to succeed, but are empowered to lead with their unique strengths and on their own terms? This is the world my guest, Deepa Purushothaman, is working to create. As a former senior partner at Deloitte and the author of <em>The First, the Few, the Only: How Women of Color Can Redefine Power in Corporate America, </em>Deepa believes we have the power to reshape corporate culture—if we work together to make it happen. In this episode of Women Changing Leadership, Deepa and I discuss what a redefinition of leadership would look like – one that challenges outdated norms, fosters true inclusivity, and builds strong communities of support. Plus, Deepa shares her insights on how Women of Color can reclaim their power, and how their allies can help them confront systemic hurdles and inspire real change in the workplace.<br/><br/>Unlock the missing piece in your leadership development.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>Ep #249: Why The All-Or-Nothing Approach is Costing You Job Opportunities<br/><br/>Are you stuck in the &quot;all or nothing&quot; trap with your career? That cycle where you&apos;re either scrambling, stressed out, and desperate to land a job after being laid off…or you&apos;re happy in a job you enjoy, letting months—or even years—go by without putting any effort into attracting new opportunities and letting your resume, LinkedIn profile, and network become neglected and outdated in the process. This cycle is so harmful because it creates massive amounts of unnecessary stress and anxiety when you <em>do </em>need a job. The good news? That stress is completely avoidable. In this episode of Women Changing Leadership, I’m introducing you to a third way. A process that allows you to attract new opportunities in a <em>relaxed way</em> that yields <em>much </em>better results. And the best part? When you follow this path, you&apos;ll show up to interviews with more <em>confidence</em>, <em>curiosity</em>, and <em>boldness</em>, because you&apos;ll be fully prepared and positioned for whatever comes your way. It all starts with my ‘<em>Always Be Interviewing</em>’ approach. In this episode, I’ll show you how to shift into this ‘Always Be Interviewing’ mindset, stay prepared, and build the professional relationships that will keep opportunities coming your way year-round—without the burnout or desperation.<br/><br/>Unlock the missing piece in your leadership development.

That cycle where you&apos;re either scrambling, stressed out, and desperate to land a job after being laid off…or you&apos;re happy in a job you enjoy, letting months—or even years—go by without putting any effort into attracting new opportunities and letting your resume, LinkedIn profile, and network become neglected and outdated in the process. This cycle is so harmful because it creates massive amounts of unnecessary stress and anxiety when you <em>do </em>need a job. The good news? That stress is completely avoidable. In this episode of Women Changing Leadership, I’m introducing you to a third way. A process that allows you to attract new opportunities in a <em>relaxed way</em> that yields <em>much </em>better results. And the best part? When you follow this path, you&apos;ll show up to interviews with more <em>confidence</em>, <em>curiosity</em>, and <em>boldness</em>, because you&apos;ll be fully prepared and positioned for whatever comes your way. It all starts with my ‘<em>Always Be Interviewing</em>’ approach. In this episode, I’ll show you how to shift into this ‘Always Be Interviewing’ mindset, stay prepared, and build the professional relationships that will keep opportunities coming your way year-round—without the burnout or desperation.<br/><br/>Unlock the missing piece in your leadership development.

As a woman leader, you’re all too familiar with bias in the workplace. You’ve encountered it, you’ve worked hard to try to overcome it, and you’ve made conscious choices to intervene and try to create a more equitable workplace for all. But here’s the shocking truth:  Despite our best intentions, only about 2% of individuals truly understand bias well enough to create lasting, positive change. As my guest, Sara Taylor, put it during our interview: “If so many of us have that positive intent… why aren’t we making progress?” Sara is the President and Founder of deepSEE Consulting and the author of <em>Thinking At The Speed Of Bias: How To Shift Our Unconscious Filters</em>. And in this episode of Women Changing Leadership with Stacy Mayer, Sara and I dive into the unconscious mind and how it shapes our biases in ways even we—educated, inclusive women leaders—don’t realize.

This is a question I hear from my clients all the time—and for good reason. On one hand, your title <em>matters</em>. And landing the high-level title you deserve matters, too. It’s how you elevate your resume and be recognized for the corporate badass leader you are becoming. But on the other hand, sometimes being too rigid about titles can stifle your career.

On the other hand, it can also feel <em>icky </em>and <em>super inauthentic </em>to become your boss’s ‘yes’ person in the hopes of winning their favor and getting the promotion you want. But there’s a middle way. You can become your boss’s favorite on <em>your </em>terms, while also: building trust that you can lead at a higher level by including your boss in conversations the <em>right </em>way; proactively creating <em>alignment </em>with the entire executive team so you understand what <em>really </em>matters to your organization; and increasing your<em> political savvy</em> so you can disagree with your boss and still be <em>heard</em>. In this episode of Women Changing Leadership with Stacy Mayer, I’ll show you very specific tips and tools so you can set yourself up to become your boss’s successor and receive the promotion you already deserve.<br/><br/>Unlock the missing piece in your leadership development.

To get an executive-level promotion, you should focus your energy on: 1. <em>Owning </em>that you are an executive leader <em>already, </em>2. Becoming an <em>amazing </em>subject matter expert, 3. Being more <em>visible </em>to the leadership team. These questions come from a game of ‘2 Truths and a Lie’ that I played recently during a free workshop with my community. (And in case you were wondering, the answers are: Truth, Lie and Truth.) But what really surprised me during this workshop, was how many of the corporate badasses in attendance were totally <em>nailing </em>their answers to these questions.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>Ep #200: Celebrating My Nonlinear Career Path<br/><br/>Welcome to the 200th episode of Women Changing Leadership!!!! 🥳🎉🎉🎉 In celebration of this major milestone, I want to talk about the power of<em> nonlinear career paths. </em>I want to celebrate and share my <em>own </em>nonlinear career path from working as an improv performer in New York City to becoming a Promotion Strategist, Executive Coach and <em>podcast host </em>helping badass women leaders get promoted to the executive suite.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>Ep #128: The REAL Reason Why You Need to Go for the Promotion<br/><br/>If you’re getting lots of accolades, landing promotions, securing higher and higher pay raises, you may start to look around and wonder…what’s all this REALLY for? The truth is, a lot of women stop advancing in their careers once they hit the senior manager level. And it’s not because they don’t have what it takes to advance to upper levels of leadership. But it is because they don’t always like what they see. The women I work with want the title, the income, the influence, and the power, but they don’t want it to hoard for themselves. They want power with people, not over people. They want unlimited funds so they can pour their money into people and organizations that matter. And they want to use their influence to not just get themselves promoted, but to transform how their organization does business from the C-Suite out. So if you’ve ever wondered ‘what’s this all for?’, then you need to tune into this episode.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>Ep #95: How to Escape the Subject Matter Expert Prison</p><p>You’ve heard of the glass ceiling… But have you heard of the Subject Matter Expert Prison? This is a phrase I’ve coined for the invisible trap around you that’s stopping you from stepping into your next level of leadership.
