You can find your community online, through social networks, but it\u2019s even better to find a group local to you to get that inspiration face-to-face. Today\u2019s guests, SC Moatti, Darryl Grant, Anne Devereux-Mills, are all founding members of women\u2019s communities who find great comfort and support within their groups. SC Moatti is a technology visionary, entrepreneur, and investor. She founded Mighty Capital, a tech company based in Silicon Valley, and Products That Count, one of the largest networks for product makers in the world. Her companies focus on creating products that people love. Darryl Grant was born and raised in Harlem, NYC, and has 20 siblings! Through his involvement in the Merrill Corporation, he founded Inspiring Connectivity, a community of C-level executive women based in San Francisco. Darryl takes his inspiration from his mother, Eloise Grant, who raised hundreds of children and mentored dozens of women, sometimes in the middle of the night. Anne Devereux-Mills is a driving force behind making change possible and showing women where to start. She\u2019s the founder of Parlay House, a national affiliation of thousands of diverse and inspirational women. Anne praises collaboration over competition and believes that women are oftentimes guilty of rejecting other women. In this episode, we\u2019re talking about the power of social communities, how these leaders have built their groups, what value they have, and how other members have received support from within. You can absolutely bring a group together and embrace the resulting empowerment, and each leader explains how they\u2019ve cultivated that for themselves. We discuss what it\u2019s like to nurture and advise young women, and transferring these skills to working with business executives across a diverse range of industries. Establishing relationships among your community is vital to creating a harmonious environment that promotes support and inclusivity, as well. Community relies on strong leadership and consistency in order to grow and develop trust. Everyone wants more community, the key is finding people that actually inspire you. Do you have a community of powerful women who support you? How have you embraced all the ups and downs that life has given you? When is the last time you met up with a local person who inspires you? In This Episode: How to reframe what\u2019s important in your life after everything changes How you can bring a group of diverse women together to embrace empowerment What it\u2019s like being an advisor to young women Why you need to build and nurture relationships across the board How you can build a network full of support and trust Why you need to run events on a consistent schedule in order to build community Why you need to embrace both the highs and lows that come on your journeys Why it\u2019s more important to meet the people that inspire you, rather than the people who just bolster your numbers   Quotes: \u201cThere\u2019s so much judgment in this world. So many times that women reject other women, either because they\u2019re competitive with them or they don\u2019t feel they\u2019re right for a job, that I didn\u2019t want to cultivate a place of rejection or encourage a choice to be included.\u201d (8:24) \u201cI think so many of us that are successful want to present ourselves as perfect, whether it\u2019s on social media, or in our work lives, or to our families and not wanting to show that there are struggles. And the fact that we can create these environments where people who you might view as role models are saying \u2018here\u2019s what was really going on behind the scenes\u2019... it makes everyone not feel alone when they have their own struggles.\u201d (11:53) \u201cFind your tribe, surround yourself with great people, focus on one thing that matters, and find others that want to be part that with you.\u201d (35:55) \u201cSometimes trying and failing is more insightful than trying and succeeding.\u201d (42:23) \u201cContinue to be ambitious in your dreams and reshape that image in the mirror. Always evolve. Anchor yourself in what you want to be and continue to reach for that. No matter what the people around you say.\u201d (55:24)   Links Find Anne Devereaux-Mills on Instagram | Twitter Find Parlay House Online | Facebook | Instagram | Twitter   Find SC Moatti on LinkedIn | Twitter | Instagram Find Mighty Captial Online | Facebook | Instagram | Twitter Find Products That Count Online | Facebook | Instagram | Twitter   Find Darryl Grant on LinkedIn Find Toppan Merrill Online | Twitter   Check out the full episode page here Keep up to date with everything Powerful Conversations Follow Monica on LinkedIn | Twitter | Instagram | Facebook ","author_name":"Powerful Conversations: Interviews with best-selling authors, executives, and innovators","author_url":"https:\/\/www.sparkpluglabs.co\/powerful-conversations","html":"
