Language is more than words; it’s power, identity, and sometimes a barrier.  Today, Erica welcomes Sarah Jane Seatherton, a trailblazer in empowering women who speak English as a second language.  Sarah Jane’s work isn’t just about language; it’s about liberating voices from the constraints of societal expectations and internalised self-doubt.

Sarah Jane shares her journey from an executive English teacher to a power practitioner, revealing how she helps women access their innate leadership potential.  Her programmes are about more than just fluency; they’re about breaking through the subconscious limitations that hold women back.

This episode dives into the complexities of communication in leadership roles, especially for women navigating international environments.  It’s a fascinating look at how altering your focus and fostering self-acceptance can transform your leadership presence, regardless of the language you speak.

 

 

In this conversation:

 

  • The link between language and personal power
  • How perfectionism and self-doubt hinder communication
  • Practical techniques to shift your focus and harness your voice
  • The significance of creating supportive environments for women leaders
  • Stories of transformation and empowerment from Sarah Janes’s clients
  • How to cultivate your own ‘entelechy’ — living to your fullest potential
  • The ripple effects of empowered communication on organisational culture
