This revamped podcast aims to reach and empower the often-overlooked population of Africa and Caribbean immigrant women. These bold adventurers have left their motherlands for the great unknowns of the Western world, most especially, the UK and the U.S. and Canada. In conversations featured on this new version of "Chatting with the Expert," we will talk about contending with cultural shocks and how step-by-step we can overcome the obstacles that lie ahead in foreign lands.Copyright © 2024 Chatting With The Experts| All Rights Reserved.

  • Dealing with Blind Spots in Leadership

    Dealing with Blind Spots in Leadership
    Apr 10 2026
    Sheila Carmichael, a strategic advisor and Master Certified Coach, known as the "Blind Spot Strategist," discusses how leadership blind spots affect leadership presence. Carmichael describes common derailers for directors, VPs, and C-suite leaders: relying on the old competency playbook under stress, focusing on performance instead of influence, and waiting too long to speak up to avoid rocking the boat. She explains how promotions often shift scope, collaboration demands, and expectations without clear guidance, leaving leaders to "figure it out." Carmichael discusses how "nice-nasty" cultures and vague feedback widen perception gaps, and how external coaching can help through diagnostics, self-assessments, and 360 reviews (including stakeholder interviews at senior levels). She shares her signature reframing question, "What is that situation asking of you?"

  • The Danger of Synthetic Skin Products

    The Danger of Synthetic Skin Products
    Apr 2 2026
    Dr. Christina Hector is a board-certified physician specializing in non-surgical sports medicine and regenerative aesthetic medicine and founder of Nature's Puree, a physician-founded natural skincare line for the whole family. Dr. Hector shares how her medical school experience led her to avoid chemicals in hair and skincare products and begin creating her own natural formulations. She explains the benefits of plant-based skincare—vitamins and antioxidants that protect skin, the body's largest organ—and emphasizes reading ingredient labels, especially as skin thins with age and absorbs more products. She outlines a simple routine: gentle cleansing twice daily, moisturizing, and mineral-based sunscreen, with optional vitamin C and retinol, and suggests seeing an aesthetician for concerns like acne, rosacea, or hyperpigmentation. She also discusses tallow/lard soaps, her book The Natural Skincare Playbook, and where to find her online.

  • Success beyond Corporate America

    Success beyond Corporate America
    Mar 28 2026
    Jraya Nicole, a career advancement coach and corporate transition strategist, discusses how high-performing professionals can leverage corporate success to pursue entrepreneurship without starting over. Jraya introduces the idea of "success survivors"—people who have achieved external markers of success yet feel disconnected, guilty, and misaligned—and distinguishes burnout (a depletion problem) from misalignment (an identity problem) requiring redirection. She argues the main barriers are not confidence or capital but courage and infrastructure, and emphasizes translating "corporate currency" into entrepreneurial authority through a strategic, "beautiful exit" rather than a reckless leap.
