  • Get Up, Stand Up, Stand Up for Your Rights

    Get Up, Stand Up, Stand Up for Your Rights
    Jul 14 2015
    Unless you are your own boss, it is likely that, at some time, you have felt wronged at work. How you are treated in the workplace can affect all areas of your life. Try as we might, we often bring what happens in the boardroom home to the bedroom. Does discrimination in the workplace still exist? When is it ok to say something? When is it NECESSARY to say something?What if you are being paid less than others or are not being paid for all of your time? And, how does “erotic capital” play into all of this—can it advance your career or empower you? Although standing up for yourself can be scary, it is also EMPOWERING. Join me and my special guests employment law attorneys Charles Joseph of Joseph and Kirschenbaum LLP and Michael Palmer of Sanford Heisler LLP as we talk about discrimination, employee rights, what happens when the boardroom becomes the bedroom, and how to EMPOWER YOURSELF. So, take a break from work to listen in so that you can get up, stand up, stand up for your rights!

  • I'm Leaving on a Jet Plane...

    I'm Leaving on a Jet Plane...
    Jul 7 2015
    Do you ever just want to run away? Or, are you getting vacation envy as those around you jet off on their summer trips? The truth is TRAVEL can be very empowering. Scientific research has shown that we tend to be happier with EXPERIENCES than with material objects to the extent that we are generally happier spending our money on a vacation than on a souvenir from that trip. Travel can bring you serenity, joy, self-awareness, compassion, courage, resilience, connection, gratitude, and understanding. My guest this week is an expert traveler who has been to over 75 countries and, on many occasions, has traveled solo. Leyla Giray Alyanak is the creator of “Women on the Road” and author of “Women on the Road: the Essential Guide for Baby Boomer Travel.” So, pack your suitcase and grab your passport--this is an episode you do not want to miss. Let’s leave the boardroom and the bedroom behind, and let’s get “On the Road Again…”

  • Empowerment through Dealing with the Inevitable

    Empowerment through Dealing with the Inevitable
    Jun 16 2015
    We encounter it every day in our world. Sure, CHANGE is inevitable. Sometimes change can be good…when you get that promotion or a new baby is born, for instance. But, what happens when the change seems to be negative? What happens when the change is a divorce, the loss of a family member or close friend, or something traumatic? Dealing with grief and loss is difficult. In fact, many choose not to deal with it and to just ignore it. But, working through life’s challenging times is important and can be EMPOWERING. While these are difficult subjects to discuss, Christine Dernerlanden of Robert’s Press is an expert in helping individuals, children, and families affected by trauma, loss, and grief. This week she will tackle these sensitive subjects and answer all of your questions to help you get past that difficult time in your life. So, come and get your virtual hug and learn how you can MOVE FORWARD and empower yourself. (Yes, you might want to have a Kleenex handy, too!)
