There’s nothing in this world that a woman can’t do,

There’s nothing in this world that a woman can’t achieve,

This is for all the women who work behind the scenes,

And it’s finally the time for them to shine and be seen

Most of the women are spreading their wings in different fields to break the stereotype of career choices; Career Counseling is one such profession which is helping women shape their career as well as that of their counterparts. There is a huge need for career counsellors in today’s world but there is only a handful of them. Like a Doctor’s profession, Career Counselling is high in demand and very well paid. A well-trained counsellor can start her own counselling practice or assist schools and colleges as a career counsellor.

Why the majority of Career counsellors are women?

•        Communication Skills: They have a natural ability to listen and express their ideas.
•        Acceptance: They are warm and non-judgemental.
•        Empathy: They are able to feel what others feel with compassion.
•        Problem-Solving Skills: They are able to recognize issues, which helps them have a better approach
•        Rapport–Building Skills: They are friendly and establish rapport quickly.
•        Flexibility: Women are highly adaptable to change.
•        Self-Awareness: They are aware of their strengths and weaknesses.
•        Multicultural Competency: They relate to people from all walks of lives.

There is a need for quality standards in the delivery of career counselling services. Women can achieve these standards because they are wired with an inbuilt aptitude.

“The greatest challenge in life is discovering who you truly are and what your purpose is!

When you know yourself you are empowered, and all geared up to situate yourself in this chaotic world. Being self-aware is not an absence of mistakes, but the ability and willingness to learn from them, sometimes even unlearn or relearn, evolving and growing each time. As the great philosopher, Aristotle says, “Knowing yourself is the beginning of all wisdom:”-

This was so beautifully shared by Leadership Demystified Webinars team, that I was compelled to register for the webinar by John Mattone, ex-coach to late Steve Jobs.

The webinar ‘Be the CEO of your life’ was a powerful one to stimulate thoughts to a certain extent that it helped in strengthening my belief that I can be a leader. It is not necessary you can be CEO in your life if only you are working in the corporate environment. As an individual everybody is entitled to be a CEO of his own life by getting mindful about his actions and having a mindset with certain patterns. Here are my takeaways-

1. If you want to be CEO in life think big. Get a great mindset. If you have a good mindset you can get the problem solved. Every day you have to think about how you are doing things different and big. It will drive you towards success. Constantly disrupt yourself. Challenge yourself as a parent, as a partner, as a friend and as yourself how to improve. You have to think big. Reflect on your accomplishments for the day- ‘What should I do different tomorrow? Where I messed, where I was good.’
2. Always check are you aligned with your core purpose? Work on your inner core. How you view yourself as a human being, what about character, value system, thinking patterns, are all engines..and if engines vibrant. Beauty in the inner core will drive beauty in the outer core. You have strengths which you have not seen before. Leverage these skills. To make outer core strong. The inner core is good cholesterol. Optimise good cholesterol. Inner core drives the outer core. Great leadership is about strengthening the inner and outer core.
3. Do not be afraid to open up. Little vulnerability is not at all bad. Do not forget to counterbalance that massive thinking. Don’t overplay otherwise you will become an egomaniac. Don’t be afraid of showing your emotions.
4. Go to children and ask for feedback. Are you a role model? What you give off? What’s your energy? Till what degree you touch heart, mind, soul. That’s what leadership is? Are you showing heart, compassion and altruism? If you want to become CEO of life never feel bad for asking the feedback. The journey of leadership is not about us. Be totally authentic. Ask your team what can I do differently to improve. To be open to taking feedback requires courage
5. Have a board of directors. Who is better than you. Ask them how you are doing, where you are strong and where weak. What went well today and where you fall short. Make a commitment, tomorrow you will be more capable, more aligned. Your inner core drives the outer core. Ultimately both will drive the foundation of values. Check who can and will help you unlock and unleash your greatest potential so you become all that you can be.
6. Whatever values you drive, leaders who are more altruistic, courteous, compassionate, who are not afraid to show their heart, not afraid to say to people you have done well are real leaders. You are touching hearts minds and souls. Leading self and others and ultimately finding the essence of what your legacy will be.
7. Look at yourself how capable you are as a human. The culture ‘can do’ is a must in any sphere of your life. Are you passionate? Passion has to be reflected. We need more passionate people. What is your core purpose? Are you aware of the vision of the essence of the person who you can be? Those are the indicators, can do, will do, must do those are the foundation for driving to success. Passion ignites others.
8. The belief within you that you have skills to do something, that’s the ignitor. Hold yourself at a much higher position. Look yourself as a human being you are capable we need people to walk around and say I can do.

When it comes to entrepreneurial ventures, more often than not men are found to take up the role of being entrepreneurs more than women. However, this has changed in recent times. Women today are actually tapping into their special skills and natural abilities that they have been blessed with to start and succeed at entrepreneurship. This isn’t to say that men are in any way less than women yet there are some reasonable points why women prove to be better at being entrepreneurs when compared to men. Since ages women have been showing their excellent capabilities around the world.

Women entrepreneurs are bound to move in the direction of controlled and gainful development. They frequently like to re-contribute business benefits over the equity venture to scale reasonably. As ladies progressively embrace the enterprise culture, they have a capacity of making distinctive business societies and models of pioneering development. Some of the reasons why women prove to be better at entrepreneurship when compared to men are:

1. Women have a higher emotional intelligence quotient: Business and humanity impact each other immensely. We as a whole need to maintain our organizations with a lot more prominent emotional quotient and consideration for the general population we associate with, our workers, our clients, our providers, communities we deal with, etc. Women have an inborn ability to intrinsically understand this better than men. It can sometimes be difficult for men to be empathetic while women find it very easy to deal with all these situations. Women feel the need of making the world a superior place to live in intrinsically and they treat everyone around them with equal respect. They comprehend the more emotive part of working together and that is the reason why they easily comprehend the needs of their clients. In a period where associating and connecting with clients are exceptionally looked for after when it comes to business, women have an extremely unmistakable preferred standpoint over men.
2. Women value creativity: When it comes to business, creativity and inventiveness is an imperative thing that goes far is creating success. We should be inventive in each part for maintaining a business and any business that has an imagination lack will think that it’s difficult to succeed in the coming years. Ladies will, in general, be increasingly liberal when it comes to the innovative parts of life and they have an unmatched ability to see value in coming up with different ways to be creative and innovative. While men follow a completely different approach. In case they cannot sell something, fix it or win it then they are not intrigued.
3. Women value relationships better: Women are better at maintaining and valuing the relationships than men both at home and at work. Most men have an outlook of seeing relationships in light of profit and losses. Whereas, women focus on maintaining a relationship that is so strong that even in the tough times the clients and vendors get convinced that hard times will pass. No matter what the situation, these people stick with the business and work hard together to keep growing and succeeding further.
4. Women are not overconfident: Most women when asked about their business state that it is thriving while most men stress on portraying their dominance when it comes to this. This isn’t on the grounds that the female entrepreneurs are doing any less well as compared to men, truth be told, an examination of the organizations driven by male and female business visionaries individually uncovers that the women are performing all the more emphatically and intelligently. They thrive to grow in the long term and they do this with a sense of being humble and grounded. Women tend to think for long term results as opposed to men who are interested in quick results.
5. Women are better at taking financial risks: Assessing and overcoming the financial risks are an integral part of succeeding in business. Men and women both are always prepared to take risks when it comes to business not because they like to but more so because it is a prerequisite. The difference comes in the approach that they take. Women tend to see the financial risk-taking as something that as an opportunity to succeed whereas men see it just as a burden that must be done to ensure success. Women pay attention to little things and making the use of all the facilities that are at their disposal for a better financial gain, for example: women make quick decisions while opting for personal loans for women in the event that they need to invest some money in business or buy something new for the development of business. In addition to this, when women entrepreneurs take risks they are all the better at assessing the realistic possible dangers that are most likely to happen. Women perfectly assess if it is a good time or not to take a risk when it comes to personal finance and they make the best out of all the options available at a particular time.
6. Women are better at negotiating: Without any uncertainty women are much-preferred negotiators than men. This is because they don’t attempt to win a negotiation since this suggests somebody needs to lose, they will, in general, go into a negotiation with a success frame of mind. Negotiations with a woman are always tough but they are always fair and reasonable. Mostly, it is always in the way a negotiation should be.

Womenlines is delighted to welcome Anjalika, an IITTI (CANADA) certified professional Image Branding & Lifestyle Consultant, as an Influencer for Image Branding at Womenlines. Yes womenfolk, gear up to learn the tips and tricks to carry yourself with excellence and make excellence your brand. In her sharing for this month, Anjalika is sharing about how to keep up with the power of femininity-

I have had some exciting conversations over the last few months at various events. One thing that stands out so vividly in my mind is when the topic of femininity comes up; to be exact, job role and femininity.

Seriously we are already quite a way into the 21^st century and I can’t believe such things still comes up in discussions. I was a subject of it a long time ago when I was accepted in the aviation industry, where men were mostly the key players and then again when I ran the marketing department of a football club.

For those who know me, I am a great advocate of femininity – not to be mistaken with feminism. Femininity is the quality or attributes regarded as characteristic of women. On the other hand, feminism is the advocacy of women’s rights on the ground of the equality of the sexes. While feminism never fails to intrigue me, let us just say that is a topic for another time.

As a woman, I personally believe in keeping my femininity alongside all the strengths that I have. I have never been afraid to showcase my femininity and never thought of it as a hindrance at any given time. For those ladies, who decide not to portray theirs, well, I have no problems with that either; it is all about personal choice.

Sadly to say in my journey as an Image Branding Consultant, I often meet women preferring not to carry themselves, dress even talk in a certain way because of the positions they hold; thinking they might not be taken seriously and even might hurt their chance of advancements.

My advice has always been the same; why should you not keep up your feminine ways; why should femininity be looked at as weakness while masculinity has always been celebrated? What has being feminine got anything to do with doing a good job?

Coincidentally, I have made a pact with myself at the end of last year that 2019 is going to be the year I am reaching out to more women, telling them, you do you, wear whatever you want, however, you want as long as your professionalism and presentation is upkept.

That said, there are a couple of things that need to be kept in mind in order to project that feminine power to be taken seriously.

Firstly, make something a representation of you – in short, know your personal style.   When we think of Jackie Kennedy, her signature sunglasses come to mind. Create one for yourself so when your name is mentioned, your personal style lingers in people’s minds.

I have always reiterated the importance of well-tailored outfit; never underestimate it. A well-sewn outfit instantly makes one look sharper and well put together; that said, the opposite is also true.

If there is one wardrobe item I would choose to help lift my whole ensemble, it will have to be the blazer; a clean, crisp blazer. Choose one in a basic colour like black, navy or white and this can elevate even the simplest shift dress. My preference, that suit most body type will be the one with V-shaped neck; elongates and taps in femininity.

When juggling colours for your office attire, try to stick with those that do not scream for attention, like bright red, neon green – even florals might be inappropriate for office wear. Choose colours that stand you out without drowning you in. Colours that work will be like beige, off-white, some shades of greens or muted red.

While some might neglect what is going on southwards; the feet to be exact, I will say, keep it in mind at all time. Invest in at least four pairs of pumps that can take you on your professional journey. As for colours, I will always advise my clients to have a pair each of black and nude, on top of their favourite choice of colours. If high heels are not your cup of tea, try kitten heels or ballet pumps. Peep-toes or sandals are a complete no-no.

Some clients cringe over the fact that I always emphasize on make-up; never walk out of the home bare-faced. I might be challenged for saying this, however, humans are visual creatures. Our attention is more often than not channelled to a nice looking thing or person. Moreover, I am not talking about 3-inches thick make-up, I am just talking powder, eyeliner, lipstick or lipgloss, and of course, a little blusher and mascara will not hurt. My morning make-up routine takes about 5 minutes; 7 minutes tops!

When accessorizing, keep it dainty. Think pearl ear studs, tiny bracelets and simple cufflinks. Big chunky pieces of jewellery are for after office hours, they have no place on the board or meeting room.

Invest in two or three handbags; a good size one is a must. Depending on what you have to tote around for office and meetings but a medium-sized structured bag in muted colour is my pick.

The way you dress should reflect the organization you represent. Most time, the right attitude plays a big part in how you dress up and when in doubt, always remember, you dress how you wish to be addressed.

Womenlines Influencer for Yoga, Archana Amlapure sharing this month is about various myths related to Meditation-

1. I can’t concentrate
2. I can’t sit still
3. I can’t control my thoughts
4. Meditation is a religious practice

Meditation is what changed my life. Meditation is what gave answers to my many questions. Meditation is where I find peace and took time to think and analyze. But that did not make me seasoned Yogi or I can sit through meditation hours and hours. I still struggle sometimes or sometimes it is very easy. But I have not denied the meditation.

When I introduced Meditation in my teaching and offerings…though I got a good response. People loved it. But felt that few people were always hesitant for even trying Meditation. The reasons they always mentioned was what I felt the myths they have around meditation. The myths are myths because we have not let ourselves break misconceptions and try out which is not in our comfort zone.

Here are the common misconception or Myths which I came across-

1. I can’t concentrate

Many times, my clients said they don’t want to join the Meditation session because they can’t concentrate or focus.

As I clarify this, Meditation is not about concentration or focusing. Once my teacher said, in modern society where efficiency is important, we have become too good at focusing. But meditation is not about focusing but about defocusing.

Defocusing is not a distraction but defocusing is about being aware of surrounding while we focus on something.

Yes, it is asked to concentrate on breathing, feeling, sensation, thoughts etc during meditation but it is to clear mind with thoughts of past and future and bring you to the present moment.

Meditation is not concentration: Concentration is a result of Meditation. ~Yog Bhooshan Maharaj

2. I can’t sit still

In many meditations, it has been asked to sit at one place and one of the reasons being when you sit straight and keep back upright, then energy flow from the spine is better and help you to keep alert. Initially, it would be difficult, but practice will make it easy.

And still, if you find it difficult, then there are different types of meditation where you don’t have to sit like Dynamic meditation, dance meditation etc.

Meditation is being tuned with our inner energy source.

3. I can’t control my thoughts

Again, Meditation is not about controlling thoughts or stopping them, but in fact, meditation is all about letting go of your thoughts. That means let it flow, analyze them and bring awareness. Bringing awareness will help to understand which thoughts are troubling, what are worries, are you just over thinking, are you stuck in any bad memories? These are the awareness you create during meditation but not by controlling them but letting them flow in and releasing them

True Meditation is letting go of manipulating our experience… ~Adyashanti

4. Meditation is a religious practice

Yoga and meditation are often associated with religion. But it is nothing to do with religion. But in fact, every religion has an emphasis on meditation but given different names like prayers, chanting, worshipping. Meditation is all about bringing the mind to the present moment, taking pause and relaxing and rejuvenating mind and body. If you still have any myths around meditation then maybe you are keeping yourself away from awesome practice which is scientifically proved to reduce stress, anxiety, improve immunity, reduces chronic illness etc.

Meditation helps to reduce beta level that means it helps to reduce the number of thoughts in mind. When you have clarity, you will automatically get solutions for your problem. Meditation reduces fight and flight response by reducing stress hormones ie cortisol and hence you can make better decisions at times of crisis. Hence it makes you better leaders. Successful personalities like Steve Jobs, Opara Winfrey, Madona, Jeff Winer claim that they do daily meditation.

And many of my clients who are a big fan of Meditation say that it gives them direction for the day.

So many benefits and simple practice, nobody should be away from this practice.

In fact, it must be inculcated in society from a young age to make them better leaders, person and responsible citizen.

The goal of meditation isn’t to control your thoughts, its to stop letting you control them

Womenlines will be sharing various tips and recipes by Subah Jain to lead a healthy life. This month sharing is about how to remove toxins from the body-

Ayurveda explains that the root cause of any disease is the accumulation of toxins in the body, whether it’s excess weight, high blood pressure, diabetes, cholesterol, asthma, PCOD, stones, cysts, or any other chronic disease. No disease can survive in a body that is clean internally. This video explains three powerful methods to remove these toxins, cleanse your body and consequently, lose weight, cure disease, have clearer skin and greater energy. The three methods outlined are intermittent fasting (also called 16-hour fasting), enema (to cleanse the colon) and cold wet packs. Once the waste is out, all diseases will be cured. No disease can survive in a body that is clean internally.

Womenlines welcomes Anji Hallewell as an Influencer of Positive Mindset on the Womenlines panel. Anji is a Natural Strengths Coach, Trainer, and founder of Natural Genius Academy (formerly Hidden Lava). In her sharing for this month, Anji is sharing ultimate tips to achieve success in life-

I’ve always been very curious about what makes someone successful.  What do they know that others don’t?  Is it knowledge?  Is it predetermined?  And this curiosity led me to a career in talent development, of which I did for many years in some of the most successful media companies in the world today.

I started to realise that it wasn’t intelligence or education, but more about personality and behaviour.  I remember watching a video clip of the late Steve Jobs, who said that once he realised this one simple fact it changed things for him.  It also changed things for me too and it’s this “Everything around you that you call life was made by people that are no smarter than you.”.

This really opened up my mind and after coaching and training 1000s of professionals I’ve learnt that these 3 core things need to be in place if you are to succeed in all you do. Watch this video to find out what they are.
