FEATURED GUEST
Hello and Welcome to The Amber Weitzer Podcast, Silhouettes of Success. Our VIP Feature Guest today is a phenomenal talent with a great story! She is a Certified High-Performance Coach for empathic & introverted leaders, executives, and entrepreneurs. She has coached C-suite tech executives in Silicon Valley, CMOs, real estate investors managing over $1 billion of assets, COO of an 800-person advertising office, sales leaders, International DJs, educators, consultants, coaches, and even a magician. She loves dancing Brazilian Zouk with the love of her life, her husband Shane.
CONVERSATION HIGHLIGHTS
Stage Presence: She was shy and introverted as a child and sought out theater, acting, learning about emotions and character development which led her to communications and marketing as an adult. Curiosity and exploration of herself she leaned into those talents and she is now a coach to support empathic, introverted leaders. She shares how her introversion actually allowed her to take on a character role then feel more confident as herself. She is able to tie the love of theater back to her Grandfather who did community theater and ultimately opened up a small community theater!
Empathetic: Her client profile is described as:
The Four “O’s”…
- Overthink
- Over Give
- Overwork
- Overwhelm
They are empathic, highly sensitive, process things very deeply and are typically are crossroads in their career or life. She runs a group program called Empathic Leadership Collective. Her business is a joy while she does recognize like many that running your own business has its struggles but certainly brings tangible results that are gratifying.
Dance: Brazilian Zouk…it is more than just a dance for her. The beautiful, flowy dance introduced to her by her husband, Shane. In addition to the skills of learning the dance, it also comes with a small, warm community following. It helped her learn to open up, both in the personal space sense and personal growth. Carla talks about how it taught her to release your guard, especially with someone you don’t know! As a coach, she says that in her role she needs to “go first”. She needs to be in alignment with what she does and needs to also move forward through experiences for growth.
INTENTIONAL INSPIRATION
Paraphrasing: If you recognize that each moment and each day there are choices, it doesn’t have to be a grand awaking…there are things you can do, if you are open with your heart, your mind, you put yourself out there just a little bit there are going to be opportunities and moment-if you are able to recognize it, not having to understand it but be open to the magic of the possibilities.
