About This Episode:

In today's episode, I have the pleasure of talking with Nesh Pillay about equality through empathy and how we can start to address issues of race, gender and age equality as female entrepreneurs. 

Nesh Pillay is the founder of Press Pillay - a socially-conscious digital marketing agency based in Toronto. Press Pillay offers an array of services for growing lifestyle tech brands. She is committed to becoming the Robin Hood of Marketing by taking from the rich and giving to the poor - or in her case, redistributing 10% of all her agency’s income toward making the world a better place.

After attaining her Master’s degree from New York’s CUNY Graduate School of Journalism, Nesh held various roles at The Drum, EQ Works, Avid Life Media, and Vice HBO.

When she’s not trying to take over the Toronto communications scene, Nesh can be found chasing her pantless two-year-old around her apartment.

A Coaching Conversation With Katie

Having a sense of rootedness is something that we all long for. Whether it’s being rooted in purpose, in a family, in a community or even in peace. It’s important that we are able to feel secure in what we are doing in our lives, and have a sense of peace about the decisions that we make. 

In this coaching conversation I am chatting with Katie who has recently left her full time career in social work, moved to a different city and is now feeling overwhelmed with it all.

About This Episode:

A few years back I met this lovely young woman at a Creative Connect group in church and was immediately drawn to her. She was vivacious, had this amazing energy about her and was absolutely full of life. A few months after later she became a coaching client and I absolutely fell in love with this girl. 

Fast forward several years and today I am thrilled to have her as a guest on the podcast. She is the founder of a gorgeous company called Onderbroeks (lounge wear for women), she is passionate about sharing her story and being vulnerable in the process. She lives in Toronto and is a dear friend. This is the lovely Tara Jeronimus.

057 | Chasing Success

A Coaching Conversation With Abby

Do you feel like you are chasing an elusive version of success, and no matter what you do it seems as though you can never attain it? In this coaching conversation, I talk with Abby whose expectations of herself have kept her chasing a version of success that she thinks she should have.

Often times we look for validation from friends and family to dictate what success should like in our lives. It's important that we are surrounded by people who are like-minded instead of listening to every voice willing to offer an opinion.

055 | Facing The Sting Of Rejection.

A Coaching Conversation With Daniella

Couragecast08.jpg

In this episode of The Couragecast we are diving deep into the effects of rejection, bullying, discrimination and how not dealing with these painful issues can really hold us back from realizing our full potential. I want to thank Daniella who graciously shares her story and coaching conversation so that we can all take away something.

We begin the conversation with Daniella’s childhood. As a child Daniella moved between a rural town in Quebec and South Africa. She shares with me how she felt bullied as a child because of her ethnicity and how those feeling have carried into her adult life. As she struggles to be authentic she is also trying to manage the expectations she has of herself and what she perceives others think of her.

054 | Do you feel confident in your body?

A Conversation With Tania Kolesnik

About This Episode:

We always love having Tania on The Couragecast. There is something so magnetic about her personality and the way she communicates. During this episode, we get an opportunity to talk about 'body confidence' and what that really means to us. 

A few months back Tania posted a beautiful photo of herself in a two-piece swimsuit. It was a sort of coming out for her -- a way to love herself on her 30th birthday. So many of her followers loved and commented on the post.

All too often we curate what we want others to see because we are afraid to show who we really are. I love that Tania has been unapologetic about who she is as a wife, mom, and entrepreneur. 

The conversation we have during this episode is just a starting point. I really believe we need to be talking more about how we can be confident as women - body, soul and spirit.

A Coaching Conversation With Emma

If you’ve ever felt pressed under the weight of overwhelm, wondering if you have the capacity to sift through hard emotions then I really believe that my conversation with Emma will bring you so much hope. In this episode, we talk about how Emma's need for approval has stunted her ability to say yes to things that really fuel her passions. We also talk about how her limiting beliefs are keeping her playing small. I give her a few tips on how to start processing through her emotions, even when they feel like they are too much to handle.
