Marianne Williamson talks about The Art of Happiness with Tory Archbold

Marianne Williamson talks about The Art of Happiness with Tory Archbold
Marianne Williamson is one of the greatest spiritual leaders in modern history and a woman who is not afraid to own her power to shine a light for others. She is the author of 14 books, four of which have been #1 New York Times bestsellers and is Oprah’s much loved ‘spiritual advisor and friend’. Her most famously quoted words are from the best-selling book A Return to Love.  “Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn’t serve the world.” It was through the power of connection and synchronicity that I was introduced to Marianne, and we spoke about transformation being something we all want yet sometimes cannot reach. I believe a happy heart is a magnet for miracles and we explored this concept together and each agreed happiness comes from being aligned with love and purpose. Topics explored where Marianne shared her wisdom: What she learnt in her 40s, 50s, 60s and now 70s.How do you keep your heart open so that miracles find you?How can life lessons empower us to propel forward?How do we find freedom in our heart, remove the energy blocks or suffering we feel to rise up and shine a light for others?Marianne shares her thoughts on legacy and the one powerful message she wishes to give to the world. Marianne Williamson has created a powerful voice for women to stand up, show up, but most importantly to understand the power that they have within themselves to make a difference. I am truly honoured to share her wisdom and life lessons with you today. You can join Marianne in her online course Ageing Miraculously September 9 – 10 2022 via www.marianne.com. Stay tuned for future coaching courses on this link too! Much love, TORY xoxSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Creating Connection + Community with Peanut app CEO Michelle Kennedy
Michelle Kennedy believes in the power of connection + community and we met when she engaged my agency TORSTAR to launch the Peanut App into Australia in 2018. It was known as the “Tinder for moms”  a GPS-enabled app that matched mums based on location and common interests. I was drawn to her incredible energy and ambition to create a powerful community women could tap into to empower them 24/7.  Fast track and the business she created was recently named TIME100 Most Influential Companies of 2022 and has over 2 million women around the world connecting and leaning into each other to navigate whatever life throws their way. It's a source of credible information and Michelle is often in the chats connecting and empowering others. We talk about: 1) How she decided to take a leap of faith when she worked at Bumble and back herself with an idea that would change the way women connect throughout the journey of motherhood 2) How she attracts investment to grow her business and deliver global impact 3) Building a business is like giving birth and the first stages of life - how does balance business and family 4) What motivates and inspires her  5) The power of the stories of women who have met on Peanut that made her realise she could extended the community engagement beyond parenthood  - she recently tapped into the peri-menopause conversation 5) Her next powerful step I highly recommend you download the Peanut app and join the power of her community - you might even have the opportunity to connect with Michelle direct!

As we launch our brand into the US market I have had the opportunity to meet some incredible thought leaders who pay forward their knowledge to others.  Lynn Smith changed course at the height of her career as a TV Anchor for some of the most watched newsrooms in the United States. In 2001, she kicked things off as an NBC page before she was hired to be an assistant to NBC executives and later, a producer at Today. All three positions opened doors to unforgettable experiences for the TV personality who took on coveted gigs as an anchor for NBC News, MSNBC and CNN Headline News, where she covered major world events as they unfolded — including the Japan tsunami, natural disasters and “far too many mass shootings.” Our paths crossed as she switched careers to launch TMX Access, a business with a team of former journalists who place media trained and verified experts with the top 200 newsrooms in the country.  Topics discussed: * Lynn’s first break into media - how did she get it and how did she feel when she stepped in front of a live camera in studio *The power of a good interview - Lynn has interviewed Dolly Parton, John Legend, Kristen Bell and many more - how do they deliver the X factor in terms of content people want to tune into and share? * For the everyday female leader, how can they prepare to make an impact in the media arena? * Why she stepped  away from the limelight to create her own newsroom  * The best way to pitch and secure a TV spot on a high ranking network show You can connect with Lynn Smith via linkedin and I highly reccomed her weekly newsletter - it'’s jam packed full of incredible content to build your brand and business.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
