[1:40]: When we prioritize our relationships  and nurture them, we are able to show up better and healthy in the lives of others. Lean in to who you are so you can show up and be available to serve others.  [4:22]: Dr. Lynyetta believes in order to create lasting shifts in our culture and world we must begin by shifting the consciousness of families. She’s committed to transforming the world, one family at a time.  [6:50]: We look back and acknowledge the good and the bad and choose what we will take forward. We honor those that have come before us, those who’ve played a large part in forming the women that you are. We take from them and leverage their wisdom, it influences how you will choose to form the generations going forward with your own approach to relationships. By this, we acknowledge the knowledge and the trauma that has been handed down through generations.  [12:24]: We have to prune the tree. This is honoring and the type of legacy we want to leave; thoughtful and transformative. Taking the shame out of it is so important.  [14:30]: Overtime if you don’t find time to balance how you encounter your emotions, you let it out on everyone else and our relationships suffer. This has everything to do with your own care and well-being. [21:00]: We have to make conscious transitions between work and home. Dr. Lynyetta helps us acknowledge that when we shift from one part of our day to another, like coming home at the end of the day, there are different parts of us required and others that we need to leave behind. Give your nervous system the opportunity to calm down and come back to baseline. There’s an even higher level of intention necessary if you work in a home environment. [31:30]: What are the myths that you have believed through the years? Understand where your beliefs are coming from, those that have been handed down from you. From there take small steps to honor realizations around feelings. Dr. Lynyetta and Sharnell give practical steps to then move forward.  [34:00]: We can hurt so many relationships if we don’t stop and become aware of ourselves. Or hard shell and lack of vulnerability that is honored in one setting is not welcomed when it comes to other relationships. Our children are requiring more of us, this generation can see through it and they want all of you.  [43:00]: Surround yourself with others that will shape you personally and professionally as you are pursuing this next season and navigating your way through.  [44:30]: Our relationships have a tendency to suffer because we are chasing after something and looking for fulfillment in life. When we are not grounded, we run towards a sense of worth. What we really need is a personal sense of worth and value. [59:00]: Healing and forgiveness is part of the process of transformation and so important to show up in our life and relationships.  [1:00:00]: When we prioritize having nurtured and healthy relationships, we’re able to reap the rewards for generations to come. This important work has everything to do with being self-aware and consciously deciding that other people are important to your journey in life and career.    Connect with Dr. Lynyetta: Website: www.drlwillis.com Instagram: www.instagram.com/drlwillis/ Facebook: www.facebook.com/DrLWillis LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/drlwillis/     Connect with me: Download my 3-Day Devotional Seasons of Significance: Know Who You Are, Where You’ve Been, and Believe For What’s Next.  Join my VIP One-on-One Coaching Program Join my Women That Lead Sisterhood Community Join my Business Coaching & Consulting Program  Website: https://somei-brandstrategy.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sharnellweathersby/  

[2:17]: Nothing in life is ever wasted. There's purpose and preparation in everything. We just have to be courageous enough to prepare for the seasons that are ahead.  [3:20]: Reflecting on how far we’ve come gives us perspective on our impact and influence. [4:45]: Many of us don’t know what is next. The data shows 1 in 2 women leaders are considering leaving their job in the next two years to pursue career endeavors, start a business, or leave the workforce altogether. [6:50]: Many of us are walking through new seasons that are shifting all of our being; life and career. Now you are questioning, how did I end up here? You may be chasing fulfillment and still looking for something else.  [8:30]: When we are able to make a difference and have an impact that changes things for good, this is where we find fulfillment. What’s going to be different for you in this new season? Many working women know what it is to sacrifice and chase after success, now is the time to chase significance. [11:25]: Giving of ourselves from our story and experiences is what gives us fulfillment and that deep purpose that we look for. People often only see the outside, our titles and our work, not an inside-view of the journey. Use all that ambition stirring within you to make an impact and be open to the influence that you could really have. Make change right where you are.  [19:30]: Jenifer shares her unique journey starting as an educator and in youth ministry to becoming a corporate leader and eventually leading Avo Solutions as a truly fulfilled working woman. [21:27] Jenifer and I remind you of how important it is to be open to things. Especially when we have no idea what’s next and where we are going to land on a journey of faith. [23:20] Reading and understanding what it looks like to do ministry and be of service in the workplace helped Jenifer to lean-in to a passion for wanting to make a difference with her work. God can use you and your life through your work and business. For many, our journey becomes our fuel and this is why we have to reflect on what has brought us here.  [28:30]: Decisions become easier when we know our values and are clear about what matters most to us and our loved ones. We have to have a vision and be courageous and open to putting ourselves and our overall well-being first. [35:00]: Working women are very resilient. What goes through your mind when making some of the toughest decisions professionally often is your family and loved ones. They bring everything into perspective for us.   [41:50]: Jenifer shares her biggest lessons in business and motherhood. She helps us to understand that she has a company that has done very well because she loves what she does and it’s aligned to who she is. She reminds us what’s most important and who is watching us.  [55:00] Jenifer is very intentional about how she can make a difference in the lives of all those she interacts with from her employees to her family. Her faith and prayer time is everything to her in life and during these seasons of transition. It makes her a better leader and gives her purpose.  [1:02:30]: Where to follow and keep up with Jenifer.  [1:05:00] Be mindful about how your journey is fueling where you are headed next. Think about how you can make an impact right where you are and find purpose and fulfillment through it. [1:09:00]: I'm very honored to be a coach for ambitious women leaders. It is through my company and our coaching programs at SOMEI that we help women leaders navigate seasons in life and business and make movement forward on their vision. Everything is purposeful, now is the time to use everything to make a difference.         

[1:00]: Can you relate to being an ambitious woman that is used to getting things done and in a new season of life and ALL of you; life and career are impacted. Everything feels as if it is shifting and you may be contemplating how to walk into this new season of life, leadership, and faith prepared? You are in the right place. Welcome to Ready For What’s Next, the podcast with Sharnell Weathersby. [2:45]: Sharnell shares her vision for this community. This is where you will find conversations with guests just like you about how ambitious women thrive in new seasons of womanhood, leadership, and faith while in the trenches of life and career. [3:00]: Sharnell takes us through her journey and gives a glimpse into the passion behind this podcast community. She helps ambitious working women to see that they are not alone in their journey of growth in life and career.  [5:00]: She helps us to understand how the key areas of mindset, well-being, leadership, our brand, relationships, knowing our value, career vision, our networks, and knowing how we are making a difference all play a large part in how we prepare for what’s next personally and professionally.  [7:35]: At the end of the day, you don’t have to choose. There is much anxiety and pressure facing working women. Many of us feel as if we are constantly sacrificing our lives and our careers. Women leaders can show up whole for their families and be fulfilled professionally. This requires some hard conversations with ourselves.   [8:00]: Sharnell welcomes a community of women that are working moms and wives that are also leaders and owners in this season of growth. We may feel unprepared to walk into the next steps that come with our lives and even in our leadership roles. She reminds us of those feelings of wanting more control in life, wanting to get more organized (the feelings of being all over the place), needing better time-management (feeling stretched thin and over-committed), and so many other emotions and questions of our capabilities that comes into play when we are walking through new seasons of our lives that impact us personally and professionally. [9:00] Strong and ambitious women can launch into new seasons of life with confidence and clarity. You can be well, anchored in your faith, and feel prepared to walk into new seasons.    [9:55]: Listen and subscribe to Ready For What’s Next, the podcast with Sharnell Weathersby.
