Weeks ago, I shared on social media that I was working with a life coach, Steve Hardison. Steve is the subject of a book, The Ultimate Coach, written by his wife, Amy Hardison and researched by Alan Thompson.  Steve calls the book, “The Book of Being.” Steve coached me  through writing a  “document” as a statement of “the you at your inner core...the you that soars.” [page 248].

 I think of my document as the song of my soul.  In this podcast, through stories, I share what the document means to me.  I share the document.  I also share a document I wrote for my late husband, Jim, in the form of his eulogy.  I muse that we are all living from documents, acknowledged or not. Perhaps being more intentional about them can change us and, in doing so, change the world.

Candid, insightful, focused – these are the descriptors that come to mind for this interview with Jamie Fiore Higgins, author of Bully Market: My Story of Money and Misogyny at Goldman Sachs.  Jamie speaks with clarity about the dangers of ignoring intuition and the cost of sacrificing personal values to the pursuit of external rewards – money, recognition, and validation from others. 

Jamie was named one of the Financial Times “Top 25 Most Influential Women of 2022, as a “teller of uncomfortable truths.”

Jamie worked as a managing director at Wall Street’s Goldman Sachs. One of just 8 percent of Goldman employees to earn the managing director title, she was the highest-ranking woman in her department. An active member of the Women’s Network Committee, Jamie ran the trainee and internship programs, recruited top equity clients, and managed $96 billion in stock. 

Jamie wrote Bully Market not only as an expose’ but to share practical ideas for building healthy workplaces that work better for men, women, and their families.

Living in New Jersey with her husband and four children, she is a trained coach. She works with teens to hone their leadership skills, with high school, and college graduates as they begin careers, with professionals as they navigate the workforce, and with mid-lifers looking to reinvent themselves.

I’m so tickled to share this interview Carol Hampshire, the intuitive-creative woman who designed my new brand and website. 

“Branding is about connecting,” Carol said. Carol shared her top three secrets behind a successful brand and marketing presence.  

Carol also talked about her journey to find freedom in life and how hardship contributed to that.  She wants to help all her clients feel greater freedom in the way they show up in the world. 

Carol is a web designer and brand strategist with over 25 years’ experience. Her unique approach is being able to intuitively tap into her clients' essence and reflect that into their brand. This in turn authentically connects and attracts their target market so they sell their offers with ease and effortlessly scale their business. 

She lives in a small coastal town in South Africa and is a mermaid at heart who loves to travel, swim with dolphins and does the occasional ice bath.

I hope you enjoy Carol’s insightful, adventuring energy!
