Is self-love the answer to happiness? - Rosie Leach, Self-love and Confidence Coach

I don't think I've ever met a person who has never experienced the feeling of "not enoughness"In this week’s episode, Georgie sat down with Rosie Leach, one of our Sisterhood School educators, to discuss self-love and confidence. Want to be the first to know when a new episode drops? 👉 Subscribe👯‍♀️👋 Introducing Rosie LeachRosie is a Self-Love and Happiness Coach ready to help you become the woman you have always wanted to be.For 25 years, Rosie suffered silently with anxiety, her self-worth was as low as it could go, and she had a penchant for people-pleasing. Rosie had ticked all of the metaphorical boxes of life (go to university, get a good job, get married etc.) yet still felt lost. Although Rosie had the "perfect" life on the surface, she appeared happy to everyone else but inside, she wasn't alive. She asked herself, “What was I doing wrong?”After some huge life events, Rosie finally found the courage to seek change and ask herself some serious questions. She began to tick the secret yet most life-changing box of all - self-love. Self-love has not only saved Rosie’s life but has allowed her to finally live her life as the woman she always wanted to be. It has allowed her to find out who she is, live by a set of values that feel good to her and remove the limitations she was putting on herself. 🎙 In today’s podcast💜 Discover why Rosie is passionate about self-love and believes it is the key to happiness💜 Why “should” is the worst swear word we can say💜 How to see ourselves as whole human beings, exactly the way we are, without anyone else’s approval.💜 What decisions can we choose to make if we find ourselves unhappy?🗝 Key questions asked:⭐️ Where did Rosie’s self-love journey begin, and what were some of the tools and strategies you used to love yourself?⭐️ What process did you go through to detach yourself from what society deemed the “perfect life” and start to love yourself for who you were?⭐️ How can we help our younger generation feel like they are enough in a world where they're told they're not?⭐️ What are some habits, routines and tools you regularly use to help with your self-love and mindset?“If you squeeze an orange, you'll only get orange. What's inside is what will come out. It’s the same with self-love and self-worth - if we have a feeling of contentment and peace, that is how we'll show up as a friend and as a parent.”Wow. What a conversation. Self-love truly is the foundation of our health and happiness. This is why we have included Rosie’s courses as a part of the Sisterhood School, which will be accessible by purchasing a Sisterhood Club NFT. First Edition enrolment is minting (launching) on 23rd September.We look forward to welcoming you 💜We would love to hear what you think of today’s episode.

Now, Bec believes it's her duty to help empower and "gently guide" other women into the space.Coming from a background in journalism and fashion, Bec transitioned into understanding the blockchain after seeing the power it can have on the transparency throughout the clothing supply chain.Bec understands the benefits of getting into (the web3) space early - "it's an empowering place. Once you get here, you're inspired to be the best version of yourself."“Web2 is what can I get, web3 is what can I give”This was a common theme and what drove the idea of SuperBabes NFT Club. "For someone who loves giving, that's what brings me joy and to see people become the best version of themselves."Bec likes to do things called "getting out of your comfort zone" and believes that's where we can reach our true potential because that's where all of the great things have happened for her."Although we are in a bear market, now is the best time to jump in."We couldn't agree more.

DAO's and Diversity - Dajana Eder, Founder of Wom3n.DAO a female web3 network

"A lack of visibility of women, non-binary, BIPOC or LGBTQIA+ people leads to a reproduction of internalised discrimination. If you aren't visible, you won't be represented. If you aren't represented, you do not exist."Want to be the first to know when a new episode drops? 👉 Subscribe👯‍♀️Dajana has transitions from a web2 communication specialist to "I'm willing to learn everything I need to know to create an inclusive web3". She highly believes in the shift from brand to community, ultimately building to ownership culture and decentralisation of data. Before Web3, Dajana was in the Motor industry, where she experienced sexism every day, even though she didn’t have a word for it providing her with the fuel and passion to create change today!Dajana, like all of us, started by not understanding what blockchain means. But the more she learned, the more she realised we could create real equality."Don't worry about this bear market because I'm a true believer that women will be the next bull market." Dajana has seen a huge shift in women starting to connect, “It's not the lure of money but a chance to change something; In Web3 we don't have these elbow techniques.”Like most early females into Web3, Dajana wasn’t a pleasant one. “I had these experiences in Discord where men told me that I'm in the wrong place and that I should go back to playing Barbies and cooking in the kitchen. No one would help answer my “stupid questions.”However, our conversation with Dajana was an enjoyable one. We spoke about:💜 What is a DOA💜 How Dajana is bringing more Women into Web3 through her educational content💜 The issues in diversity - not just in Web3.💜 How blockchain can change the future.💜 What does “ownership culture” mean?Plus a whole lot more.We hope you enjoy this episode as much as we did.Georgie and Pam x________________________________________________________________________Connect with Dajana:LinkedInInstagram________________________________________________________________________Join our Sisterhood Club CommunityJoin the conversation on Discord 💜Follow us on Instagram 👋Come and say hi on Twitter 🐥Learn more about us on our website 👯________________________________________________________________________Connect with GeorgieLinkedIn | InstagramConnect with PamLinkedIn | Instagram This is a public episode.

The Best Career To Secure Your Financial Future - Amy Efstathis, Code Like a Girl

“Currently, there are nearly 500,000 women over the age of 45 in Australia facing homeless. If you’re a single mother who rents, there is a 65% chance you will become homeless in your lifetime”Want to be the first to know when a new episode drops? 👇Hey SHC Community,Welcome to this week’s episode with Amy Efstathis on the Sisterhood Club Podcast. Amy is the Partnerships and Fundraising Manager for Code Like a Girl.Code Like a Girl is a collective of women who found each other through a love of code. And the more women in tech they meet, the more women in tech they think there should be. But with only 16%* of technologists being women, they've come up short. That's why Code Like a Girl's social enterprise is on a mission to introduce women of all ages and backgrounds to code, confident that they'll love it as much as we do.Amy is a passionate advocate for women and women's equity. Helping women to be the best people they can be and to have a say in their own lives.She's been working for cause-related organisations for 15 years and when Code Like a Girl advertised the Fundraising and Partnerships Manager role, she jumped at it, knowing she was getting to work with "inspirational women every day."Amy’s passion is driven by the following:* Staggering statistics around women getting left behind (across all areas)* The fact that half a million women in Australia over the age of 45 are facing homelessness.“If you're a single mother who rents and works part-time, there is a 65% chance that you will become homeless in your lifetime.”In the podcast, Amy explains that this is due to a myriad of reasons, including;* Women making certain career choices* Unaffordable housing* Superannuation* Putting care of others before themselves“Women have systemically been excluded from careers like technology, but this is where people's incomes are growing substantially and significantly."In technology, we need to fill 60,000 roles per year for the next few years. With only 7,000 people coming out of University each year, there is a massive gap in the market. Technology is a future-proof career to help women solidify their future economic state and ensure lifelong financial stability. However, we don't go into it because we're told: it's for boys, and it's entirely not".The Technology industry is growing so fast that we have a talent drought; organisations are becoming more intelligent, more flexible and welcoming to women and diverse individuals because they realise it needs a more diverse talent pool.The reason girls don't often move into technology is that caring is a traditionally feminine trait. “After all, little girls want to be someone - they fall into care careers because their first role model is usually their mothers or carers.” Little girls embody the people they see around them in their play because it's usually their mother, grandmother and Aunties.Recent advice from more prominent technology companies like AWS, ANZ, 99 Designs, and EY has said that "skills aren't as important as an attitude - but having the attitude of a lifelong learner is."We finish the podcast by discussing the money that having a career in technology can provide."We get to live a life by our design if money isn't an issue - money gives us power and control over our own lives."Our conversation on today's podcast was full of great topics and questions, including:💜 What are the main barriers of entry to technology for women to enter technology jobs?💜 What can mothers do if they have young girls to get them curious about coding?💜 Why women don't need to be a "coder" to have a job in technology.💜 What can businesses be doing to attract more females into technology?💜 Advice for women looking for a new challenge or a career move into technology.We hope you enjoy today’s episode as much as we did.Georgie and Pam x________________________________________________________________________Connect with Amy & Code Like a Girl:InstagramCode Like A Girl________________________________________________________________________Join our Sisterhood Club CommunityJoin the conversation on Discord 💜Follow us on Instagram 👋Come and say hi on Twitter 🐥Learn more about us on our website 👯________________________________________________________________________Connect with GeorgieLinkedIn | InstagramConnect with PamLinkedIn | InstagramJoin the SHC Community 💜 This is a public episode.
