    Growing impact and influence with Dina Denham Smith

    enFebruary 23, 2023

    About this Episode

    In today's episode, we talked about leadership and influence with Dina Denham Smith. Dina is an acclaimed author, coach and is the founder of Cognitas, an executive and team coaching organization.

    We spoke with Dina about how she found her way into coaching and the sometimes counterintuitive key characteristics of good team leadership. We also covered Dina's journey as a content creator herself, and what she's learned as an accomplished author including how to encourage your subconcious self to tackle challenging creative problems (like writing a book!).

    S2E20: Coach Cydnee DeToy on Burnout and the Power of Linkedin

    S2E20: Coach Cydnee DeToy on Burnout and the Power of Linkedin

    In this week’s Content People episode, I chatted with Cydnee DeToy.

    Cydnee’s a Career and Empowerment coach.

    Her work centers on supporting ambitious millennial women who need to recover from burnout,  redefine their relationship with work, and set new, empowering boundaries.

    And, fun fact: In her first 8 weeks, Cydnee made 25K of revenue from LinkedIn. And built out a nearly full book of business. Not too shabby, right?

    Our convo covered:

    • The content and posts that earned her the most clients.
    • How LinkedIn has surprised her.
    • What drives her to share her message and support millennial women
    • And what it’s like to work with her.

    PS. This is our last ep of season 2. We'll be back Jan 2 with Season 3!

    S2E19: Glossy Author Marisa Meltzer

    S2E19: Glossy Author Marisa Meltzer

    Whoa ho ho. This is a big one. 💄 👀

    Today on Content People we chat with Marisa Meltzer - the best-selling author of Glossy: Ambition, Beauty, and the Inside Story of Emily Weiss's Glossier.

    Glossy - an instant best-seller - is a deep dive into the work of Emily Weiss, from her industry-changing blog Into the Gloss to her billion-dollar empire at Glossier.

    If you’re interested in business, girl-boss analysis, or the beauty industry as a whole - it’s un-put-downable.

    Marisa and I covered:

    • Why she wanted to write this book.
    • How she feels about Emily Weiss.
    • What it’s like to have an ongoing, complex relationship with a public figure like Emily.
    • And if she and Emily have talked since publication.

    If you’re wondering (since Emily seems to be somewhat of a polarizing figure): I’m team Emily. There are elements of her story that many, many women in leadership positions might empathize with - and I find her to be very inspiring.

    S2E18: Employee Branding with Cher Jones

    S2E18: Employee Branding with Cher Jones

    "The branded wheel gets the grease."

    This week, we had the privilege of speaking with Cher Jones - a powerhouse of personal branding with an impressive 30,000 LinkedIn followers.

    Cher isn't just a social media influencer. She's the founder of "Your Brand at Work" and has collaborated with industry giants like BNY Mellon, Lockheed Martin, Fannie Mae, and Hewlett Packard.

    Her mission: empower employees to cultivate and communicate their unique personal brands, both online and off.

    What does personal branding mean to Cher? It's all about unearthing and expressing individual talent and value.

    One of my favorite takeaways from our chat was Cher's five non-traditional KPIs for personal branding:

    • Do people want to work with you?
    • Do people want to work for you?
    • Would they refer you?
    • Will they champion you?
    • Can they learn from you?

    Powerful, right?

    Our conversation was so much fun, and I learned a lot.  

    Cher, thank you so much.

    S2E17: Mastering Public Speaking with Amanda Hennessey

    S2E17: Mastering Public Speaking with Amanda Hennessey

    What, exactly, are you supposed to do with your hands during a speech?

    Great question.

    Let’s ask Amanda Hennessey, this week’s Content People guest.

    I’ve worked with Amanda in the past - and loved every second I get to spend with her. I know you guys will like her, too.

    Amanda’s the bicoastal founder of Boston Public Speaking and San Diego Public Speaking. She coaches teams and individuals - giving them the tools and confidence they need to nail big presentations, small (but important) meetings, and everything in between.

    Amanda helps people:

    • Manage their nerves.
    • Increase their confidence.
    • Tell compelling stories.
    • Master vocal variety.
    • Rehearse (instead of over-rehearse).
    • Pull off a great wedding toast.
    • And, finally, figure out what the eff to do with their hands during a presentation. ⭐

    She’s also the author of Your Guide to Public Speaking: Build Your Confidence, Find Your Voice, and Inspire Your Audience. (Her book’s origin story, which we cover in the ep, is really magical. ✨)

    Hope you might like it.
