How to Take Control of Your Life
In career transition
Dr. Carol pivoted several times in her life and at age 50, decided to make the leap into entrepreneurship.
Dr. Carol Parker Walsh: "I decided to launch my own practice, at the precipice of my 50th birthday after going through a divorce and actually a near fatal car accident and decided that I really wanted to work with women and helping them to fearlessly take control of their life and careers, particularly women at midlife."
How to Love the Life you Live Live the Life you Love
Live unapologetically
We can unapologetically live life on our terms and do the meaningful work we love.
Dr. Carol Parker Walsh: "The first step is to really understand recognize and embrace the talents and skills that you bring forth. We tend to as women, undermine ourselves and underestimate our talents."
Creating more love by first loving yourself. Giving more by volunteering. Getting to know your community getting involved are just a few ways to have impact.
How to Let People Know About You
Brand strategy examples
What is a Personal Brand? Harvard Business Review defines a Personal Brand as "how you want people to see you".
Dr. Carol Parker Walsh: "It's how are you showing up in the digital space? What does your LinkedIn profile look like? Are you creating articles? are you creating thought leadership? Are you putting your knowledge and value out there so people know that you're the one that could bring this to the table?"
Answering these questions and taking action will help you to create your Personal Brand. Your Brand positions you as someone who adds value first to yourself and to others. It's a way to use your power and voice.
Memorable Quotes from Dr. Carol
"Step into owning and embracing who we are and our identity and stepping into the power and significance that we have to offer the world."
"Start seeing that you do have something of value to contribute."
"That would not have happened had I not been involved."
