In this episode, Anna and Heidi Hinda discuss the historical context of women's financial independence and the desire to make money as entrepreneurs. The conversation explores the concept of wealth, the societal expectations and judgments around women and money, and how to unapologetically desire wealth and power. Anna and Heidi Hinda challenge the myth of the hustle and emphasize the importance of finding balance and avoiding burnout. The conversation also delves into the energetics of money, including the concepts of security, power, influence, and recognition; and concludes with a discussion on gratitude and the importance of focusing on progress and trusting the process.

Sound Bites

"We probably want to make money and good money doing it. And why the hell not?"

"I don't believe that's the only way to have a successful business."

"Money is a currency. It moves and it flows, comes and it goes. But we don't necessarily trust that."

"What does wealth mean to you when it comes to your business?"

"Letting ourselves say that we want money, that we want a lot of money, that we wanna make shit loads of money, that we want those zeros in our account without apology, without needing to justify."

"We can unapologetically want our own business and be paid well for that.”

Takeaways

• Women have gained more financial independence in recent generations, but there is still progress to be made in achieving gender equality in terms of pay and opportunities.
• The myth of the hustle suggests that success can only be achieved through constant work and sacrifice, but it's important to find balance and avoid burnout.
• Money has both practical and energetic aspects. It's important to have a strategy for making money, but also to cultivate a positive and grateful mindset around money.
• Childhood messages and experiences shape our beliefs and behaviours around money. It's important to examine and challenge any scarcity mentality that may be holding us back.
• Focusing on progress and trusting the process is key to building sustainable success and wealth. Wealth means having the freedom to work on your own terms and make choices.
• Women should unapologetically desire wealth and power without societal judgments.
• Open conversations about money among women are important.

Welcome to the very first episode of the Full of Ourselves Podcast.

In this episode, Anna Campbell and Heidi Hinda Chadwick introduce their new podcast, ‘Full of Ourselves’, and discuss the importance of being full of oneself as a woman in business. Challenging the societal expectations for women to be modest, quiet, and not take up too much space, they emphasize the need for women to step into their power, be confident, and unapologetically themselves.

Anna and Heidi Hinda share their own experiences and (ongoing) journeys towards embracing this for themselves, which of course includes the importance of collaboration, community, and vulnerability in business.

Sound Bites

"Why have we called it full of ourselves?"

"It is time for us as women to step up and take our places as pioneers, as entrepreneurs, as inventors, as leaders, as thought-provokers, as visionaries in the field of business."

"We need to take up our own space. We don't want to shy away. We want to be full of ourselves."

Takeaways

• Being full of oneself as a woman in business means embracing and owning who you are, being confident, and unapologetically showing up as your authentic self.
• Societal expectations for women to be modest and not take up too much space have limited their ability to fully step into their power and leadership roles.
• Collaboration and community are essential for women in business to support and learn from each other, and to combat the loneliness and challenges of entrepreneurship.
• Vulnerability is a strength that allows women to be real, make mistakes, and learn and grow from them.
• Confidence comes from trusting in oneself, having faith in one's abilities, and being willing to take risks and learn from failures.
