Ep. 206 - Let Empathy Be Your Compass (w. Anita Nowak, PhD)

39m · Awaken The Awesome · 13 Feb 15:00

Empathy is defined as the ability to understand and share the feelings of another.

I came across my next guest's content and mission through a wonderful podcast interview she gave on the topic.

Anita Nowak is an empathy expert, author, award-winning educator, international speaker, podcaster and certified coach.

Her extensive work revolves around fostering empathy in individuals and organizations, recognizing that true understanding and connection require more than just feeling emotions; it involves cognitive empathy, which allows us to understand how others think and feel.

She has committed herself towards serving values-driven organizations dedicated to social impact and her incredible resume will attest to that.

She is the founder of Purposeful Empathy by Design, a global advisory firm that helps purpose-driven organizations create cultures of empathy and social impact.

In April 2023, she published the incredibly impactful book, Purposeful Empathy: Tapping Our Hidden Superpower for Personal, Organizational, and Social Change, which you should definitely check out. She also the host of the wildly successful Purposeful Empathy podcast, available on all major podcast platforms.

Given her incredibly accomplished career and thought-provoking insights on the matter, I loved how approachable and down-to-earth she boiled down something that she emphasizes should be a guiding compass for us all, not just as leaders or organizations, but as a people.

On this episode, Anita teaches us about the importance of being truly intentional when choosing to empathize with others, brings us much needed clarity in differentiating sympathy versus empathy, how to be more empathetic leaders...and so much more.

Ep. 210 - On Building Wealth & Living With Confidence (w. Allegra Moet Brantly)

Allegra Moet Brantly is an entrepreneur, speaker, podcaster and founder with the kind of zeroed-in focus that never fails to inspire us always aim higher when it comes to setting goals. She remains an example of incredible drive to achieve as well as an unshakeable confidence to execute on her vision.

But don't be fooled - she didn't start out that way.

By her own admission, Allegra's time in her early 20s was spent more on climbing the corporate ladder and curating her LinkedIn profile than managing her finances.

Then, even though she was making a great salary, she was still living paycheck-to-paycheck...and she had no real savings or investments.

Not to throw in the towel, like so many do, and becoming disillusioned with the corporate world, she committed to putting in the work towards changing her ways and, slowly but surely, embarked on the painstaking and lonely overhaul of her money.

She eventually grew her net worth from -$18K to $1.1M. Not too shabby.

I love it when someone takes the lessons that life and circumstances taught them along the way and not only thrives as a result, but also chooses to generously pay it forward by sharing the wealth of knowledge acquired.

Which is why she set her sights on a simple, focused mission: to lead 1 million women to $1 million in net worth so more women can achieve financial freedom in their lifetime.

To do so, she founded Factora Wealth, an online course & community that educates and empowers women to build real wealth, together.

It was a true honor connecting with an individual with such a powerful message to share and a genuine mission to conquer. And I'm here for it.

On this episode, Allegra shares some wisdom from one of the most important people in her life, the importance of a solid financial education, our emotional relationship with money...and so much more.

You can connect with Allegra via LinkedIn, Instagram or the Factora Wealth website.

Be sure to check out and show love by listening/rating the Coffee & Coin podcast where Allegra welcomes an amazing roster of incredible and accomplished women on the same mission to empower more women towards achieving financial freedom.
