"Everything that we do, we have put out there internally first. So everything starts inside."

Linda Yates' insightful conversation with Rochelle on this weeks episode informs us that effective communication is an inside out, and outside in, job. One of the key highlights from the discussion is Linda's emphasis on the "embodied condition" – the powerful influence our chosen attire can have on our mindset, behavior, and how others perceive us. Linda also talks about how effective communication also includes a strong sense of self-awareness and self-acceptance.This reinforces the notion that communication truly is an "inside and outside job," requiring alignment between our internal thoughts, emotions, and the image we project externally.

Linda shared a personal anecdote about catching herself in a moment of self-criticism and reframing it with a gentle, understanding response as a poignant example of how we can diffuse negative self-talk and cultivate greater self-love. As Linda wisely notes, "If you talk to yourself like your best friend, then you're going to give yourself empowering messages." Techniques like mirror work, journaling about accomplishments, and consciously celebrating one's strengths can be invaluable tools for women seeking to build their confidence and authenticity as leaders.
