In this episode…

One of the most common challenges women face in both their professional and personal lives is knowing when to say ‘Yes’ and when to say ‘No.’ They often put the needs of others before their own, and in the process, they end up forfeiting their own desires.

It is therefore important for every woman to identify and know where her priorities lie. You need to learn how to say ‘Yes’ only to the things that actually matter, and you have to be very protective of your time and take control of your life. You should never force yourself to tolerate things that don’t make you happy. If it’s not lighting your fire, you don’t have room for magic to happen!

In this episode of the Lead Like A Woman Show, Andrea Heuston is joined by Lorrie Morgan, the Owner and President of Red Hot Copy, to talk about communication crafted for women versus men. Lorrie also shares her copywriting background, her coaching work, and talks about her horse ranch. Stay tuned.

Business leaders are expected to make the best decisions about their organizations. However, sometimes this can be difficult and leaders can waste a lot of time thinking about the right move to make. How do you get unstuck from this decision-making loop?

Michele Hecken often faced this same problem when running her business. It mentally took a toll on her, but while talking to one of her mentors, she was advised to just make a decision — and this helped solve her problem. She now uses that same piece of advice to help other entrepreneurs offboard and get things out of their desks (and their heads).

In this episode of the Lead Like A Woman Show, Andrea Heuston interviews Michele Hecken, an executive coach, about the importance of offboarding yourself from your business. They discuss the benefits and challenges associated with delegating, how Michele prepared her business for sale, and how she coaches other entrepreneurs to offboard themselves from their companies.

In this episode of the Lead Like A Woman Show, Andrea Heuston is joined by Shenandoah Davis, the Co-founder and CEO of Adventure Nannies, to talk about leading a business like a woman, experiencing success, and the power of music.

Don’t Quit Until You Make It

Congresswoman Nancy Mace

Congresswoman Nancy Mace grew up in the Lowcountry of South Carolina. She is the daughter of a retired Army General and a retired school teacher. Before being sworn into Congress, Nancy earned accolades as one of the most fiscally conservative members of the South Carolina General Assembly. She is also one of the most pro-conservation lawmakers in that state. She grew up in Goose Creek, South Carolina, and dropped out of high school at the age of 17. She immediately became a waitress at the Waffle House. After earning her high school diploma a few months later, she entered The Citadel (the Military College of South Carolina), where she was the school’s first female to graduate from its corps of cadets in 1999.

In 2004, Nancy earned a master’s degree from the University of Georgia. She is the author of In the Company of Men: A Woman at The Citadel, published by Simon and Schuster in 2001. In 2008, she started her own company. Her background in business is in technology, PR, and marketing, and more recently, commercial real estate before coming to Congress. Amongst her other achievements and responsibilities, Nancy is a single mom of two children, aged 12 and 14. She also has two cats, Tyler and Tiger, and a puppy named Liberty.

In this episode…

Being the first female to graduate from The Citadel, Congresswoman Nancy Mace was taught a lot of valuable life lessons. She learned the importance of being courageous, confident, and believing in herself. Now she’s here to empower women to speak up for themselves, for others, and to give a voice to the voiceless.

Nancy advises fellow women leaders to never quit until they achieve what they want. Other people’s opinions and perceptions should never define who they are or what they are capable of doing. If a woman doesn’t believe in herself, then others will not believe in her and her abilities.

Congresswoman Nancy Mace is Andrea Heuston’s guest in this episode of the Lead Like A Woman Show where she talks about being the first female to graduate from The Citadel and how that impacted her work in Congress. Nancy also talks about her experience growing up in a military family, the lessons she learned from working as a waitress at Waffle House, and how she runs her own business. Stay tuned.
