This Is Woman's Work with Nicole Kalil
Nicole Kalil
Together, we're redefining what it means, looks and feels like, to be doing "woman's work" in the world today. With confidence and the occasional rant. From boardrooms to studios, kitchens to coding dens, we explore the multifaceted experiences of today's woman, confirming that the new definition of "woman's work" is whatever feels authentic, true, and right for you. We're shedding expectations, setting aside the "shoulds", giving our finger to the "supposed tos". We're torching the old playbook and writing our own rules. Who runs the world? You decide. Because that is Woman's Work. Learn more at nicolekalil.com

034 / Time (Choice) Management
Time is the commodity we just seem to never have enough of, and once time has been spent, you can’t get it back. So how do we manage our time better?
In this episode I share 5 of the biggest game changes (for me) as it relates to time, in hopes they’re game changers for you too.
We all have the same 60 minutes, the same 24 hours a day, the same 7 days per week. What will you choose to do with your time? You are the decider. Time doesn’t own you, because it doesn’t own your choices. It’s time to develop the skill of CHOICE management.

033 / Achieving YOUR Goals with Kristin Burke
What’s your big, crazy, audacious goal? What gets you up in the morning, and keeps you up at night? And here’s the million dollar question...how do you achieve it?
In this episode, I welcome guest Kristin Burke - Goal Achievement Coach and Host of the Elite Achievement Podcast, to give us tips and strategies that she uses with her coaching clients to get them from goals to results!
Don’t be afraid to be afraid. It’s a sign you’re up to something big and worthwhile. Go chase that goal with clarity, confidence (which you know I’m extra passionate about!), courage and consistency. Find your supporters, believers and even your challengers. And tell the doubters, the naysayers and the haters to get out of your way...because you have important work to do!

032 / There’s No Right Time To Start A Business with Melissa Lorenzo-Hervé
In this episode, I welcome guest Melissa Lorenzo-Hervé - Full-Time Attorney Editor, CEO/Co-Founder/Creative Director of Pirouette, wife and mother of 2. Melissa shares with us some great insight into managing a very busy life, as well as how one goes about starting a new business with limited time.
It may feel like other people have more capacity, more talent or more luck than you. It’s easy to compare ourselves to others and feel behind. But like Melissa, like myself (regular people like you!) we are so much more capable than we give ourselves credit for. This has nothing to do with perfection, there’s no perfect way to start a business, there’s no perfect way to do any of this.
We as women are so many things to so many people. But who are you, for YOU?
There’s purpose inside you. There are dreams and passions, for you, and I believe it’s time to honor them. Because I can’t think of anything more important to redefining Woman’s Work, than the notion that we show up as our authentic selves, with all our gifts, with all of our strengths, so we can take the world to its feet.

031 / Your Financial Planning Strategy with Chantel Bonneau
I believe every woman should know about and understand her financial situation, and every woman should have a financial plan.
In this episode, I welcome guest Chantel Bonneau - Wealth Management Advisor and Author - to educate and help take away some of the mystery and overwhelm we may feel when it comes to making decisions about our money.
You don’t need to track the stock market or understand the differences of all the various retirement accounts, or even be great with money to have a plan. That’s where a great advisor can come in. All you need are goals, dreams and to know what’s important to you, so that you can make the best choices with the money you have.
It’s time for women to feel empowered by their finances!

029 / The Art of Networking with Julie Brown
I have a confession to make. I’ve spent my entire career avoiding networking like the plague. The idea of going into a room with all new people and having to make small talk... just the very idea of it makes this introvert super uncomfortable. (wine please!)
In this episode, I welcome guest Julie Brown - Networking Coach, Business Development Strategist, Speaker, Author, Podcaster, to share with us how we can ALL be better at networking and relationship building. Julie shares the importance of connecting with people in a 360 degree fashion. And how by using her “list yourself” approach, you will transform your networking!
As women, many of these things come naturally to us, relationship building, gut feeling, authentic conversations, listening and empathy. We were born with the skills to network. And you add in Julie’s tips and approaches and we are golden!
Now let’s get out there and do it! This Shit Works! :)

028 / Your Child’s Mental Health with Abby DeMarzo
On any given day I can go from one extreme to the other, either convinced that I am destroying my child's mental health during COVID, to believing that everything is going to be just fine.
So how concerned should we actually be about our kids right now?
In this episode, I welcome guest Abby DeMarzo - Licenced Mental Health Counselor who works with kids and adults dealing with both depression and anxiety. Abby shares her expertise and personal experience (she’s a mom!), on what our kids are experiencing, and gives some tips on what we should be focusing on right now with our children.
Here’s a hint...it’s not struggling to set them up for school, stressing about their abundant screen time or perfecting their schedule to a T!

026 / Are Your Money Beliefs Holding You Back?
Beliefs create behavior and behavior creates results. So, you are either in control of your beliefs and behavior about money, or it is controlling you.
In this episode, we dig deep on our beliefs about money and what it may reveal about us (are you getting fidgety yet?). We all have a relationship with money, and like most relationships, it can be purposeful, healthy, and empowering, OR it can be limiting, discouraging, and stressful. Listen in as I share tips on shifting your perspective and making your money work for you, not the other way around.
It’s time for us to get confident about money, and it starts right here!

025 / Building a Foundation of Health and Fitness with Jennifer Nagel
In this episode, I welcome guest Jennifer Nagel - Certified Personal Trainer and Body Transformation Expert, to share her 3 M’s of health - you’ll need to listen in to learn what they are!
As women we often struggle with prioritizing our own health, so our needs can get put on the back burner. Jennifer talks about how you can work out effectively in less time (because who has 2 hours to get to the gym?!), and how you may need to eat more (the 1,200 calorie diet doesn’t cut it).
You only get one body, this body. What if you loved it, cared for it, honored it like a sacred temple, like a home? What would THAT look like for you?
