"I wish I could just give people a new lease on life. It would be to wake up and start walking the path of not caring what other people think. Putting yourself first. Women will be called the B word. Men will be called arrogant. Nope, it's called confidence."

Monica Adams is a radio and television personality in St. Louis. After many years as a local newscaster on both Fox 2 and KSDK, she expanded her reach by adding podcasting and social media video content. She’s also a fitness trainer, life coach, and fashion consultant reachable at The Real Monica Adams website.

She talks to Cynthia about her early days as a goalie at Mizzou and the shocking way that her life took an unexpected turn. She covers her journey into broadcast journalism, and how it led to an even higher calling as a personal transformation consultant. Her words of wisdom will help anyone who wants to achieve greatness, no matter where they’re starting from.

Jane Megown: How a House Fire Ignited Success

It’s not about me selling and, you know, me making money. It’s about you being satisfied and happy with what you want and what you need. And I’ve always had that kind of philosophy, and my dad had that, too. And people recognize you’re not in it for yourself, you’re in it for them. And you’re sincere, and it really goes a long way.

Sylvia Owens: Basketball & Boardrooms

Leadership is not about the leader. And I equate this back to basketball. When you have coach or coaches, they can’t go out on the court and shoot the ball and dribble the ball and pass the ball. But coaches have to be really good at getting work done through others. And so from a leadership perspective, that’s how I see it. As a leader, I have to be really good at getting work done through others.

Debi Corrie: Failures Fuel Future Success

“Gallup just got done with their survey for 2022. They found 25% better profitability in companies that have great employee cultures. Because when you have happy employees, happy employees make your customers happy. Happy employees want to invite other people to come work at their company. Happy employees want to share their ideas to make the company better. All of a sudden, you’ve created this culture where people want to contribute, and that’s the reason we do what we do.”

Shalia Ford: Transforming Trauma Into Triumph

“I think that what I’m able to do in the program is to create the brave space that women need to be vulnerable, to do the internal work that has to happen, to have great and deep, thoughtful, reflective conversations, to bring in a lot of other great women. But at the end of it, that she’s breaking out of that chrysalis and she’s got her wings.”

Sara Stock: Making a Bold Career Pivot

As lawyers, we’re expected to have all the answers and be right 1000% of the time…Actually, we are humans. We are going to make mistakes. It’s actually a beautiful opportunity, when we make a mistake, to show up for our clients in the right way, own those mistakes, and then fix them on our dime. It’s really that simple. You actually deepen a relationship.
