Women Making HERstory


On November 6th, history was made in America. Or, perhaps we should say HERstory was made!  If you haven’t heard yet, there are now 112 women in Congress - a record number in history. Women were poised to make significant electoral gains in this “Year of the Women” election. Not only do we have more women in the government now, but many diverse women in terms of background, age, race, ethnicity, and sexual orientation. This is the first time in 100 years that women are making their mark in Congress stronger than ever before.   In 1992, the first “Year of the Women,” 54 women were elected to Congress, making historic records. Since then, women have never held more than 84 of the 435 seats in the House. On Wednesday morning, it was declared that 96 women had officially been declared winners. Nine women won governors’ races. At least 12 women won Senate seats, which brought the total to 21 women. And the numbers are progressively increasing. The women in this year’s race focused on key issues such as better health care, pledges to better protect the environment and to help stop the rising incivility and divisions among Americans to propel their campaigns.

How to Market Your Podcast to Grow Your Business


You know the saying, "If a tree were to fall on an island where there were no human beings would there be any sound? That question was actually posed over 120 years ago in 1883 in the magazine The Chautauquan. There is an actual answer for that, which was published in another magazine, Scientific American one year after that. The answer according to the magazine's author is, "Sound is vibration, transmitted to our senses through the mechanism of the ear, and recognized as sound only at our nerve centers. The falling of the tree or any other disturbance will produce vibration of the air. If there be no ears to hear, there will be no sound." Without ears to listen, all the efforts to create and produce a podcast will be fruitless and your business will suffer. That's because as success minded business owners, any time spent on something other than your business is time taken away from making the cash register ring. So, if you're going to do a podcast for the sake of your business, it's most important that you know how to market your podcast to grow your business. Read the blog "How to Market Your Podcast to Grow Your Business" as Margaret Croom, Director of eWomenNetwork offer her advice on marketing your podcast to scale up your business.

The Key to Success is Not Your Mindset, but Your Worthset


If you want to be wildly successful, some believe you first have to develop a healthy mindset. But what does that actually mean, mindset? It’s one of those buzzwords you hear a lot these days like the word “mindfulness.” Well, the dictionary says that “mindset” is “the ideas and attitudes with which a person approaches a situation, especially when these are seen as being difficult to alter.” But Life and Business Transformation Specialist, Sandra Yancey, takes it one step further. She says the key to your success is not your mindset, but your "worthset." She explains that mindset is more about what's in your head. For example, people create New Year’s resolutions to exercise more. That's their mindset. But we all know what happens. Their head tells them they should, but their heart isn't into it. The key is you need to believe you are worth the trouble of doing whatever it takes to have a Healthier body. That is your "worthset. Read the blog "The Key to Success is Not Your Mindset, but Your Worthset" to plan your worthset and take action accordingly.
