      <description>We each have unique strengths. The question is do you know what they are and how to use them. In this episode, your host Tareka Wheeler explores ways you can identify and start using your strengths. Often times, professionals are ready to advance, but forget that they have unique tools called strengths that can actually help them excel. Tareka takes time to tackle this topic and to introduce what are called character strengths from a book authored by two psychologists. If you are ready to stop the madness in your career and learn how to identify your strengths, then definitely tune in to this episode.  



KEY POINTS:

- Learning how to identify your strengths and lead with them can positively impact your success.

- Discovering your professional DNA - your defined natural ability to succeed, can help you advance in your career.

- There is a difference between your passion and your strengths. 

- Although we all have strengths, many professionals don't take time to discover them.

- 24 Character Strengths

      <title>How to Thrive and Advance in a Remote Working Environment - Ep.79</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/pdnapodcast/episodes/How-to-Thrive-and-Advance-in-a-Remote-Working-Environment---Ep-79-e1v6cln</link>
      <description>Experts state that the growth of remote roles would have happened even without the pandemic. A Gallup survey in June of 2022 found that 8 in 10 people are working hybrid or remote, while only 2 in 10 are entirely on-site. While some have headed back into the office, many professionals are still remote. In this episode, your host Tareka Wheeler is sharing strategies to help remote workers thrive and advance in the workplace. While there are many benefits to remote work, there are also challenges and pitfalls you need to avoid to ensure you don't stunt your professional growth. Tune in for a must listen to episode for all aspiring or current remote workers. 



KEY POINTS:

- There are many benefits to remote work.

- The percentage of remote workers keeps increasing year over year especially after the pandemic. 

- Sometimes being remote can create content and complacency. 

- Think about where so you want to "grow".

      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/pdnapodcast/episodes/Shifting-Your-Mindset-Can-Shift-Your-Career---Ep--78-e1uqrec</link>
      <description>Why do we think a shift can magically happen with no action?. If you want to see something different, then you need to do something different, and often times the first place to start is with your mindset. While you may experience challenges in your career, it's how you approach and think about them that really matters. In this episode, your host Tareka Wheeler talks about the importance of shifting your mindset and assessing your relationship with growth. If you truly want to experience a shift in your career, then tune in to learn about four significant mindset shifts you can make to see the shifts you desire and deserve in your career.



KEY POINTS:

- Through it all, the biggest challenge or obstacle in your career is your mindset.

- Take time to assess what the word "growth" means to you.

- You do not need the approval or validation from others to grow and achieve success. 

- Your life is your biggest client, so don't forget to serve you.

      <title>Getting Real With Myself to Experience Real Growth_ Ep.73</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/pdnapodcast/episodes/Getting-Real-With-Myself-to-Experience-Real-Growth_-Ep-73-e1t74og</link>
      <description>Sometimes we hide from ourselves to get away from the pain, adversity, or the day-to-day challenges that come with life. However, hiding doesn't always look ugly. We can dress it up and appear to be successful on the outside even when we are stuck and not growing on the inside. Your host Tareka Wheeler will share a piece of her journey when she was the reigning Queen of "Artificialville", and what strategies she used to get real with herself so she could begin to see real growth in her life.

Tune is as Tareka jumps into Season 3 head first and opens up about how she learned to stop shrinking and hiding, so she could begin to really thrive and grow from the inside out, and continue to pursue the career and lifestyle she desired. 



KEY POINTS:

- Being ok with the reflection you see, and giving gratitude and grace so you can move forward to change what you don't like.

- Setting aside your pride and asking for help so you can grow.

- What do your really want in life and why?

      <title>Transition From Surviving To Thriving In Career &amp; Life - Ep. 71</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/pdnapodcast/episodes/Transition-From-Surviving-To-Thriving-In-Career--Life---Ep--71-e1lk2rh</link>
      <description>We are conditioned to believe that "surviving" is ok. However, it's time to make a shift away from just surviving so you can thrive in your career and in life. There is a fundamental difference between surviving and thriving. Surviving is defined as “to continue to live or exist” while thriving means “to grow or develop well, to prosper or to flourish”. In this episode, Tareka is challenging you to unapologetically pursue a major shift so you can begin to thrive in both your personal and professional life. Making a shift is never easy, so Tareka is providing you with a few strategies to help you along the journey.

She has worked with companies such as Meta, Nike, Google, ebay, and many more, with the goal of amplifying their communication, connection and confidence so that they have a positive, influential impact on the world.

      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/pdnapodcast/episodes/How-to-Overcome-Limiting-Beliefs-About-Your-Career---Ep--64-e1j7mlm</link>
      <description>What if you actually believed in yourself? What if you started to change your thinking to support the career goals and the vision you have for your life? So many times professionals, especially women and working parents, tend to get trapped in their own limited thinking that eventually turns into limiting beliefs that leave you in paralysis. Not to worry, because in this episode, Tareka is going to help you reframe and overcome those limiting beliefs so you can advance in your career. This is a must listen episode if you have been feeling stuck or lack clarity about the next steps to take in your career. Grab your notebook, a pen and tune in!

KEY POINTS:
- Limiting beliefs are thoughts, ideas, and assumptions that limit your progress.
- Limiting beliefs begin with thoughts that can ultimately begin to change your behaviors, habits, and personality.
- Your thoughts should empower you.

      <description>Do you have any allies at work? Are you sure? Allies are important for several reasons.

In this episode, Tareka sits down with best-selling and award winning author Minda Harts to talk about how to find allyship in the workplace, and why it is so important. As women, especially women of color, there are ongoing challenges when trying to develop strong trusted relationships in the workplace with those that have influence or the professional capital to speak up or advocate on our behalf. Minda is addressing these challenges and offering tips and strategies for those seeking allyship, and those who are in a position to be an ally.

      <title>From Vision to Reality: Ep. 52</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/pdnapodcast/episodes/From-Vision-to-Reality-Ep--52-e1fa3ae</link>
      <description>Having a vision for your life and career is definitely critical to your success. However, just having a vision is not enough. Often we have a vision in our minds of what success looks like in our personal life and career, but we leave it at that and do nothing about it. We daydream about what our lives could be like, or the career we desire to have, yet we don't take any real steps forward to get there. Your vision requires action. A vision without action is like a car with no gas in the tank. It's time to take action and shift from vision to reality. In this episode, Tareka shares six simple and practical steps to take action on your vision so you can achieve success and make you vision a reality. Tune in, and learn the steps you need to move forward towards your vision today.





KEY POINTS:

- A career vision statement or picture of what you want your future to look like.

- A vision without action is just a daydream.

- Every goal, action plan, habit, or behavior should ultimately serve the vision.



Six Steps to Taking Action on Your Vision

- Stay focused on the vision but honest about the present.

- Allow you vision to be in the drivers seat with your goals in the passenger seat.

- Be willing to reset or change your goals.

- Revisit your vision often.

- Invest in your journey.

- Take consistent action.

      <title>How to Leverage Your Experience and Skills to Make Your Next Career Move - Ep. 48</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/pdnapodcast/episodes/How-to-Leverage-Your-Experience-and-Skills-to-Make-Your-Next-Career-Move---Ep--48-e1dvrtd</link>
      <description>I hope you know that you don't have to settle in your career. There are two invaluable assets that you absolutely own and can leverage... that's your experience and skills. In December 2021, a Gallup Poll revealed that 85% of people were not happy in their jobs. If you are in that 85%, you don't have to be. It's time to stop settling and to start advancing in your career.

In this episode, Tareka will teach you how to tackle the limiting beliefs holding you back from making your next move in your career, and help you explore how to leverage your experience and expertise. Your expertise, experience, and skills belong to you. It's time to use what you got to get what you want, desire, and absolutely deserve. Tune in to another must listen episode, especially if you are truly ready to make a move in your career and achieve success in both life and work.



KEY POINTS:

- You cannot ignore the impact work has on your personal life.

- You have two invaluable assets to help with your career advancement; your experience and skills.  

- The mindset and thinking holding you back from making a room in your career:


 Fear of success

 Lack of self-confidence

  Perceived lack of experience 

  Perceived lack of transferrable skills


- Your experience, expertise, and skills do not belong to your organization and team, they belong to you.

- Transferable skills are the abilities that can be transferred from one career to another.



This episode is brought to you by the Train Your Bran to Win 3-Day Masterclass - February 19-21, 2022

      <description>Are you ready for your upcoming end-of-year performance review? Properly preparing for your annual performance review is more important than you may realize. Each year you have an opportunity to review your goals and accomplishments and receive feedback on your past performance and suggestions for improvement. Performance reviews can be used to justify raises or promotions or to request additional responsibility. So why do professionals wait until the last minute to prepare? In this episode, Tareka provides 5 strategies for how to prepare for your upcoming review. No formal annual review process at your company, no worries! Tareka is sharing how you can create you own year-around review and drive the process so you can leverage the value of an annual performance review. Tune in to get ready for your next review.



KEY POINTS AND STRATEGIES


 A end-of-year performance review measures the quality of your work contributions and serves as an opportunity to highlight your value to your company. 

 These reviews provide an opportunity for your supervisor to give you both constructive and positive feedback.

  It's important to leverage end-of-year performance reviews as an opportunity to create goals and growth plans with your manager/supervisor.

  Not having a formal review process at work should not prevent you from having on. Create your own.

      <title>Leadership Essentials Part I: Shifting From Doer to Delegator</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/pdnapodcast/episodes/Leadership-Essentials-Part-I-Shifting-From-Doer-to-Delegator-e19iv7j</link>
      <description>Want to know one of the common mistakes leaders and aspiring leaders make? It is the mistake of not shifting from being a doer to being a delegator. Believe it or not, it is not that simple. Leaders at all levels struggle with letting go and allowing their team to take on tasks and deliverables. Today, we invite you to take a big step and assess if you have really made the shift. In this episode, Tareka is sharing tips and strategies for leaders, and those hoping to lead in the future, on how do to shift from being in the weeds doing the work to being an effective and efficient leader that delegates and provides direction and guidance to others. Are you a leader, or have even the tiniest desire to be one? If so, then this episode is going to teach you one of the essential leadership skills you need.



KEY POINTS AND STRATEGIES


 One of the most difficult transitions for leaders to make is the shift from doing to leading.

 Delegation is the process of distributing and entrusting work to others.

  Great leaders understand that for people to give their best, they must have a sense of ownership over their work, and believe that what they are doing is meaningful.




How to Effectively Delegate


  Analyze the task

  Select the right team member

  Assign the task

  Monitor execution

  Provide feedback

      <description>Why is it so difficult to ask for more? Why is it difficult to negotiate your salary when you know you deserve more? One reason is fear!

      <title>Developing an Ecosystem of Support with Amelia Roberts- Ep. 27</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/pdnapodcast/episodes/Developing-an-Ecosystem-of-Support-with-Amelia-Roberts--Ep--27-e16tjcr</link>
      <description>Having support along your professional journey is a major key to strategically advancing in your career. Trying to manage both your personal life and career unsupported and disconnected can be a recipe for being unhappy, burnt out and not having a clear path forward for achieving the success  and fulfillment you desire. All high-achieving professionals need an ecosystem of support. That's why Tareka sat down with Strategic Partnership &amp; Visibility Expert Amelia Roberts. Amelia provide insights an ecosystem of support is, and why it is important to have one. Have a support system, but not sure if it's a ecosystem that provides you with 360 degrees of support? This episode is for you. Tune in to get super clear on how to build and nurture relationships so you can develop a health ecosystem of support.

KEY POINTS &amp; STRATEGIES


 Developing an ecosystem of support is a critical strategy for any professional.

 An ecosystem is a geographic area where plants, animals, and other organisms, as well as weather and landscape, work together to form a bubble of life.

  Members of your ecosystem of support could be a spotter, trainers, cheerleader, etc...

  Visibility planning includes assessing your readiness to be seen.




GUEST QUOTE

"I have noticed that some professionals were well equipped, almost groomed from birth, to live with a built in support system, and others were not so prepared to receive success or heavier responsibilities."

      <title>The Visible Introvert - Ep. 26</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/pdnapodcast/episodes/The-Visible-Introvert---Ep--26-e16j9sm</link>
      <description>“People who prefer quieter, more minimally stimulating environments.” That’s how Susan Cain, author of the book Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can’t Stop Talking, defines introverts. Introverts are mistakenly seen as people who are shy or do not enjoy social interactions. Instead, introverts are simply people who relax by being by themselves. They also tend to observe before acting. Is it possible for people with introverted personalities to lead? Absolutely! Introverts can make excellent leaders by leveraging the very traits that define them. Tareka sat down with Leadership Coach Terrance Lee, AKA The Introvert Leader, to dig into how the introverted professional can lead, and what extroverts need to know about their introverted colleagues. Terrance helps introverts grow as leaders, and during this episode he is sharing tips and strategies for introverts that may be struggling with being visible and stepping into their ability to lead. Whether introvert, extrovert, or somewhere in-between, this is a must listen episode.



KEY POINTS &amp; STRATEGIES


 Introverts are most commonly defined as someone who gets his or her energy from alone time rather than socializing.

 Introverts can make excellent leaders by leveraging the very traits that define them.

  Introverts tend to be observant and focused, and these are the very traits that can help them become experts in their fields and give them a competitive advantage in their career.

      <description>How do you ensure you stay committed to doing the things you said you were going to do? What are you doing to make sure that you are staying the course and completing the tasks and deliverables you are responsible for? In short... " Who Checks You?". Accountability is a team effort. As professionals, we need to have a great sense of personal accountability, and surround ourselves with people that are going to hold us to our commitments and "check us" when we go off course. Tareka is sharing some of the behaviors you need to develop to ensure you have a great sense of personal accountability. When you’re personally accountable, you take ownership of situations that you’re involved in. You see them through, and you take responsibility for what happens – good or bad. While this may seem easy, it can be challenging. Especially when we don't have an accountability circle. Not sure how to form the right accountability circle? No worries as Tareka is going to explore 5 key traits a member of your accountability circle must have in order to be helpful and most importantly effective. We all need accountability in our personal and professional lives. Tune in to make sure you are on the right track so you can stay committed to your goals and achieve the success you deserve.

        <![CDATA[<p>How do you ensure you stay committed to doing the things you said you were going to do? What are you doing to make sure that you are staying the course and completing the tasks and deliverables you are responsible for? In short... " Who Checks You?". Accountability is a team effort. As professionals, we need to have a great sense of personal accountability, and surround ourselves with people that are going to hold us to our commitments and "check us" when we go off course. Tareka is sharing some of the behaviors you need to develop to ensure you have a great sense of personal accountability.

We all need accountability in our personal and professional lives. Tune in to make sure you are on the right track so you can stay committed to your goals and achieve the success you deserve.</p>

      <description>The only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle.

—Steve Jobs
