We live in a world of increasing uncertainty. This uncertainty is primarily due to how quickly various situations and circumstances can frequently change. It is not uncommon for fast-changing environments to quickly lead fierce feminine leaders to begin feeling overwhelmed and start harboring limiting beliefs, negative self-talk, and paralyzing doubts. Keep Reading >> So, how do you curb feeling overwhelmed and develop a strategic plan of action when faced with significant uncertainty and increasing change? By thinking and making decisions from a place of solid math rather than a place of high-drama. On today's episode, I discuss what it means to think in math instead of drama and how focusing on drama can negatively impact your ability to scale your business. I explain how identifying and reviewing your results and revenue can help you take strategic action when faced with uncertainty. I also discuss the importance of finding a balance between innovation and focusing on what's already working well for you and your business. "When in doubt - think in math, not in drama." - Eleanor Beaton Today on the Fierce Feminine Leadership Podcast: How focusing on the math can increase your impact - and your revenue. Identifying the high-income activities in your business and doubling down on them. Finding a balance between innovation, and learning new skills, and focusing on what's already working in your business. What it means to be a student of your results. Identifying your highest value in the marketplace. How focusing on the numbers can help you make better decisions and overcome limiting beliefs, self-doubt, and negative self-talk. Fierce Leadership Quotes: "Leadership is essentially the art of creating certainty and direction out of massive uncertainty." - Eleanor Beaton "So many of the problems and confusions that we experience in business is so much simpler when we start looking at things through the lens of math." - Eleanor Beaton "You've got to be a student of what's actually working for you. The best way to be a student of what's working for you is to take out that trusty calculator." - Eleanor Beaton Join the Exclusive Incubator Program!

Tracking your time can be an effective way to track your productivity. In fact, I often recommend my clients to track their working hours to give them an overview of exactly how productive they are and track how many things they actually do while at work. But have you ever thought about tracking you're your personal time – the time outside of working for your organization or business? Many people do not realize just how powerful and valuable tracking their non-working hours can be. Keep Reading >> I recently experimented with tracking my time, both at work and at home. This experiment has opened my eyes to many lessons about how I spend my time, my true productivity level, and even taught me how much time I actually spend with my family and friends. In this episode, I'm going to share with you the 5 lessons I have learned after tracking my time over a 14 day period and why you should conduct your own experiment to help you identify where you could improve how you spend your time each week. Today on the Fierce Feminine Leadership Podcast: Why tracking your personal time, as well as your working hours, can help you identify areas to improve How tracking your time can help you overcome "mom guilt" 5 Things Tracking Your Time Each Week Can Teach You: Identify if you're truly getting enough sleep Identify if you're eating enough to fuel your daily, intense ambition and energy level The amount of time you truly spend with your children The number of hours you actually dedicate to work Identify if you're lying to yourself about not having time to do fun or important things Mentioned in This Episode: Episode 186: The Lies Women Tell Ourselves About Time with Laura Vanderkam Love the show?

One of the most common fears that prevent truly amazing entrepreneurs from stepping into their power and breaking the glass ceiling is their fear of bothering or "annoying" people when it comes to marketing and sales. They fall for the misconception that if they market their products or services as much as they think they should - they will begin to annoy their audience and potentially "dry up" their sales funnel. Keep Reading >> On today's episode, I share why it is critical for entrepreneurs to get over their fear of bothering or annoying others. I explain how the fear of annoying people can actually hold you back from achieving your goals and the importance of understanding that how people feel about what you do to market your business is truly none of your business. I also explain how giving in to the fear of annoying others can impact your ability to communicate effectively and sufficiently as well as why it is critical to consistently promote your business to achieve the success you deserve. "The fear of annoying others can absolutely hold you back, as an entrepreneur, from being able to communicate effectively and sufficiently with people." - Eleanor Beaton Today on the Fierce Feminine Leadership Podcast: How the fear of bothering people can hold you back from achieving the next level of success. How your fear of annoying others impacts your ability to communicate effectively and sufficiently with others. The importance of understanding that how people feel about what you do isn't your business. Why it is critical for entrepreneurs to market consistently. Fierce Leadership Quotes: "When you are worried about annoying people, you are placing the needs and feelings of the 2% over the masses." - Eleanor Beaton "If someone is annoyed with you - it is not your business." - Eleanor Beaton "The biggest enemy of most entrepreneurs is obscurity." - Eleanor Beaton Join the Exclusive Incubator Program!

On This Episode of Fierce Feminine Leadership... How willing are you to engage in politics in the workplace? Bonnie Marcus, author of the Politics of Promotion and international speaker says that learning to successfully embrace and navigate workplace politics can give you the leg up that you need when it comes to reaching success. Keep Reading >> More About Bonnie Marcus Bonnie has 25-years of experience in corporate America. Bonnie's wake-up call came early on in her career she was passed over for a promotion because she didn't position herself properly. Politics of Promotion arose from a keynote Bonnie did called "Anatomy of a Blindside" She has spoken at major events such as; the Dynamic Women in Business Conference at Harvard, the MIT Sloan School of Management, and the Massachusetts Conference for Women. It takes more than great performance to get ahead in business. You need to know how to position yourself, build advocates and build influence across the organization. How can you increase your political savvy? Build a relationship with yourself- take the time to understand how you and your work contributes and adds value to the organization. This is the foundation for you to promote yourself and build influence across the organization. Own your ambition- recognize what it takes to move your career forward and make decisions that support your ambition going forward. Develop an awareness of what is going on around you and what your organization and bosses are trying to achieve Build a network in a strategic way- It's not only about who is in your network, but it's also very important that you are selective in how you spend your time. Consider: How powerful is each person in your network? And how strong is your relationship with each of those people? How you can build visibility with the powerful players? Do the people in your network understand how you bring value to the organization? Understand the dynamics of your organization. How are decisions made, who makes the decisions, & who influences the decisions? What does it take to get ahead in your company? Have there been other women who have reached leadership roles? did they have relationships with What kind of assignments did they get? Did they have a sponsor, a mentor, and or a coach? What was their executive presence like? What kind of behavior is condoned in your organization? What can companies do to retain female talent? The underlying problem isn't addressed- women don't necessarily want to leave work when they have small children or when they have elderly parents to care for, but they have little choice because there is little flexibility in corporate America to understand and support women throughout the entirety of their career. Don't make assumptions about what women want and need, ASK them what they need to be successful. Individual women and their companies need to identify ambitious women who want a long-term career and then have an individualized career track that the leaders in their company will be held accountable for.
