Description

When you're starting something new or making a significant change in your life, whether it be a new job, starting a business, standing up for yourself, or even public speaking, fear is inevitable. Listen as Alisa, Rosa, and Merary discuss what they learned from philanthropist and entrepreneur, Perla Tamez, about looking fear right in the eyes and facing it head-on.
"When I see fear it's like 'okay, let me go grab it by the horns.' Look at it in the eyes and I'm pushing forward because it's like a bull. And so, for me, it's like playing a game. Wherever it's difficult, that's where you need to go in." – Perla Tamez, Owner, Love Soldiers Foundation
Topics in this episode:
your vision is bigger than your fear
staying focused when fear creeps in
using your charm while thinking like a man
being your own judge
strategy in a male-dominated workplace
being flexible like jello

After spending almost two years interviewing multicultural women in the c-suite, entrepreneurs, authors and speakers, we’ve seen a running theme of how women are shattering the glass ceiling and breaking through the concrete ceiling: rule-breaking. But what rules are we talking about and why do they exist? That’s what we explore in the What Rules!? podcast. You’ll learn our six guiding principles for multicultural women looking to outsmart the game to advance their career. Founded by HR executives specializing in diversity and inclusion and talent management, Rosa Santos (co-host), and Merary Simeon (co-host), and executive coach Alisa Manjarrez (producer).
