  • Inner Prosperity as The Key to Financial Success with Ruchi Pinniger
    May 31 2024

    Our inside wholeness is what creates prosperity.

    Ruchi Pinniger is a former Wall Street executive and founder at Watch Her Prosper. Her company provides financial mentorship, support, and services to women-led service-based businesses. After personal and family struggles, Ruchi shared a story about how one Prada bag taught her that true prosperity is in inner wholeness rather than material possessions.


    Even women would rather talk about their death than money, Ruchi explains that financial support and help are crucial to all businesses of all sizes. The numbers are data and when used properly can show a path one business should take, but creating a safe, non-judgmental space for women to discuss money is crucial for practical financial planning and support.


    Not only the financial support matters for business success but also our internal beliefs and self-care. Ruchi’s RIR concept (Recognize, Interrupt, Reframe) helps women shift from disempowering to empowering thoughts about money and success. This involves recognizing negative self-talk, interrupting it, and reframing it with positive affirmations.


    Both personal and societal conditioning are tough for women, and there is a need for a holistic approach that will include work but also balance it with well-being and self-compassion. Having more spaciousness and ease in our lives will lead to greater success. Reframing our habits and beliefs is the key and anything is possible for us after that.

  • Understanding Power and Wisdom of Middle-essence with Voiceover Actress Dina Sherman
    May 24 2024

    Saying Yes to opportunities in front of you is the key.


    Dina Sherman is a voice-over actress and the official announcer for the Annie Awards. She emphasizes the importance of storytelling, authenticity and the constant learning she gained through her extensive experience in animation, anime, commercials, radio, TV, and film.


    Her creative career started in elementary school with prank phone calls with impressions and continued with National awards for speaking. The transition from TV and stage to voice-overs was pivotal for her career. Her work in charity and helping underprivileged groups is a way to get back to the community and world for having a great and interesting job she adores. Dina’s focus is on literacy so her charity work in reading to kids and adults transformed towards digital format during COVID through her YouTube channel for kids.


    Women are usually pressured with all kinds of ‘shoulds’ and Dina shares how she is balancing this pressure from outside but also created within. As women go through different stages of life, exploring and enjoying all stages of wisdom and experience gained, is the road to happiness and a fulfilled life.

    🤓 Being criticized and ashamed: don’t shoot yourself but appreciate your windows of opportunity. 22:00
    🌺 Women have stages in their lives and we are growing differently in each: adolescence and middle-essence discoveries. 26:45
    👂 Constant learning and the right approach to connection: hearing people and proper introduction. 31:49

  • Shining Your Light: Claim Your Expertise with Amanda Samoyloff
    May 17 2024

    Women are real rock stars.


    A woman of many talents and passions, Amanda Samoyloff, is an actor, writer, producer, poet, and the founder of SamoyloffPR, specializing in branding and PR. Amanda started her creative journey from acting as a kid, then continued in her college days through speech and debate, but working with musicians in Hollywood, gave her a specific view towards PR.


    Combining her experience with rock stars, Amanda wanted to inject that Rock ‘n’ Roll vibe into clients’ branding while establishing women in the media landscape. As women are not being represented enough in the media, especially in male-dominated fields, women need to ensure diverse voices are heard out there. Women have the common issue of imposter syndrome, but we need to believe in ourselves and as soon as we pull from the backend into the spotlight it will significantly boost our businesses.


    Today, Amanda shares strategies about personal branding, the best time to hire a PR, how to leverage your story, and how to prepare before a product launch. Women need to be recognized, but to achieve that, it's important to ditch perfectionism, find time for ourselves, and believe in our strength. Establishing a healthy reward system and finding time for creative activities is crucial for preventing burnout.


    We need to shine our light, so let's just keep beating that drum and let’s get out there to rock!

    Notes:
    🧑‍🎤 National speech and debate award: after college, Amanda started doing PR for rock musicians in LA. 03:50
    👩‍💼 In 2020, she applied this experience to female founders and startups. 06:32
    🎭 Amanda has been acting since childhood, but her writing and poetry came in college. 09:47
    ⚡Steps for starts is getting to know your impact, and problems you are trying to solve: get to the podcast and then reverse engineer that to get a PR headline. 11:54
    ⚠️ Getting PR too late: get your PR campaign going at least 9 months before the product launch. 18:15
    ▶️ We have to claim our expertise: believe in yourself and stand in front of your company. 23:13
    ✍️ Poetry comes to Amanda usually when she's physically in motion: stories about relationships and growth. 28:17
    🔥 If your reward system is only linked to work, you will become burnout. 32:30
    🛑 If you don't work on yourself, your business isn't going to go anywhere: find time for yourself too. 34:14
