In honor of Women's History Month, let’s explore how you can step into your power and create your own herstory, breaking free from limits and self-doubt. Everyone has a unique story, and as mompreneurs, the power to shape your legacy lies within you.
Embrace Your Journey
Hello everyone! I’m Rasheeda Green, CEO of Get Right Coaching and host of the Mompreneur HQ community. As we dive into this empowering journey, let's reflect on how we, as women, can reshape our legacy and empower ourselves to make history.
Starting out in my career, I worked in retail, experimenting with various roles from flipping burgers at Nathan’s Famous to interning at a brokerage firm. Opportunities arose because I showed up, worked hard, and never let doubt silence my potential. My journey from an intern to a senior assistant vice president was not without challenges, but each step taught me resilience and the power of vision.
Resilience: The Force Behind Comebacks
When life presents obstacles, resilience is key. Challenges are not about failures; they’re about how we choose to rise. From early career hurdles to managing large customer service teams, each experience shaped me and reinforced the lesson that setbacks are merely setups for comebacks.
If you've ever transformed a setback into a comeback, celebrate that strength. It's these moments that define your character and propel you forward.
Vision: Charting Your Path
What does success look like for you? Having a clear vision can guide you through the turbulence and uncertain paths. For me, success wasn’t defined by titles but by doing my best and impacting those around me. Envision the life you want, let your dreams guide your decisions, and remember, each small victory adds to your legacy.
Courage: Stepping Out of Comfort Zones
Harnessing the courage to step beyond comfort zones defines history makers. Reentering the workforce was a bold move for me, demonstrating that every risk can lead to rewarding opportunities. Embrace risks as steps towards a future rich with potential. Ask yourself: What's the worst that could happen if you take that leap?
Authenticity and Integrity: Your Superpower
In a world full of pressure to conform, authenticity is a superpower. Staying true to yourself fosters genuine connections and enduring success. For me, authenticity means leading with integrity, whether online or offline. It’s about empowering yourself to shatter limiting beliefs and creating your own path.
Turning Vision into Reality
As we wrap up, let’s not forget, creating history takes unwavering determination and consistency. Each risk, lesson learned, and step taken is another brushstroke on your canvas of legacy. Commit to one action today that brings you closer to your big dream. Let it be the spark that lights your journey to making your own history.
Thank you for joining me on the Making of a Mompreneur Show. Remember, you have the power to break free from limiting beliefs, lead with authenticity, and leave your mark on the world. Keep pushing forward and continue creating your herstory.
