EP80: Introduction to LinkedIn-Building Your Community & Network with Reena Friedman Watts

EP80: Introduction to LinkedIn- Building Your Community & Network with Reena Friedman Watts
Hello Chit Chatters!
Welcome back to another episode of Coaching for Millennials! I am excited to share this new episode with you because I have a good friend of mine who is joining me to talk about one of my favorite social media, business, networking platforms- LinkedIn! 
If you haven't heard any episodes of the podcast before and this is your first one, know that LinkedIn is a common platform that we talk about and it is one of the places I make most of my connections with clients, guests and peers. It's also a great place for content sharing, community building and networking. 
What you can expect to hear in this conversation is an introductory conversation to LinkedIn. Reena and I have been on the platform almost since its inception. I wanted to host a conversation such as this one to help people and my awesome listeners with using the platform and why you should be joining. Listen in to learn about how to make connections, make engaging posts, join groups, establish a presence, get seen, get heard and build a community. 
Be on the lookout for future episodes on specific topics surrounding LinkedIn to help you build the best profile and brand, enhance your network, find a job, get hired, find your target audience and more!  Stay Tuned!

EP79: KNOWING YOUR WORTH: Salary Negotiations, Asking For a Raise & More

EP79: KNOWING YOUR WORTH: Salary Negotiations, Asking For a Raise & More
Hello Chit Chatters! 
I have to start by saying that I am so grateful for all of you who are loyal listeners and to those who have come and hung out for one episode here and there, and those who lurk around trying to figure out if this show is for you! I am blessed to have all of you listen and I thank you for that!
In this week's episode, I want to share some tips on uncovering your worth and how to go about the conversation on salary negotiation, asking for a raise, knowing when it's time to leave, and lastly not doubting your decision in any of these situations. 
First and foremost, you matter and you are unique, talented and special in every way. You have a unique God given gift and talent that is waiting to be shared with the world. If you have found that through your work and are happy with where you are, great! Continue on your journey of personal and professional development, BUT remember GROWTH doesn't stop because you've reached a level that makes you feel accomplished and successful. 
The beauty of what we are experiencing and living with during the #GreatResignation is that people are taking the time to reflect on what matters most to them and defining the values that they are not willing to sacrifice for any job or career. Oh and you should NOT feel guilty or ashamed for making these decisions. PERIOD!
Now if you're listening to this episode, be sure to bring your pen and paper to take notes, because I share some tactics that will help you in negotiating your salary in a new job or promotion, how to ask for a salary increase or raise and uncovering when it's time to make the change into a new opportunity or career.

EP78: The Great Resignation: Why Working From Home is Here to Stay

Hello Chit Chatters!
I AM BACK!! After a much needed break, I have taken some time to bring you a NEW episode.
This week's episode is EP78: The Great Resignation: Why Working From Home is Here to Stay
In this episode I am sharing some of the reasons for the #greatresignation and how to identify some of the signs that you might be a part of the great movement. 
We all know that the COVID-19 Pandemic and quarantine has required all of us to spend time away from in person work and adapt to bring our work into our homes. For many people this meant running your whole team and staff in a virtual environment while some were wearing multiple hats of managing their kids, assisting with remote classroom studies, taking care of their parents and/or dealing with the overwhelming stress of uncertainty of the world and your own mental health. 
If you agreed or nodded your head to one of these or have a similar experience to some of these, it is likely that you've had some time to reflect and think about what you value most in life and how your world of work play an active role in it. 
Prior to 2020, we were all living in our own bubble of how we manage our day to day work-life and balance our personal lives with it. For the last eight months, we've all questioned everything about what we want in a work-life balance and what we expect from our workplace and the culture that is created. 
I've always said that world of work is in need of change to help people actually take and have a better work-life balance as oppose to thinking and saying that we have one. Americans are among the most overworked country globally. As a society, we have a strong live to work mindset as oppose to a work to live. The pandemic and the working from home experience is causing folks to question their values about work-life balance, putting their families and mental-health first and leaving the complicated, on demand work culture behind. 
In this episode, I share some strategies on what is causing the Great Resignation, ways for you to begin to live a more balance life that isn't focused on work and how to start the conversation at work about returning or not returning.

Love & Light,

EP76: PRIDE SERIES: Celebrate. Reflect. Honor. Love

EP76: PRIDE SERIES: Celebrate. Reflect. Honor. Love
Hello Chit Chatters!
Happy Official Pride Weekend in NY and possibly globally!
I am filled with some much joy, honor and proud to be a gay man!
Over the last three weeks, I have brought you episodes on PRIDE and shared different topics and themes reflected of the LGBTQ community. 
Never did I think I could openly say and share my thoughts and feelings about being a gay, Hispanic male on a platform like a podcast. Truthfully, I wasn't living to my full potential and being my authentic self until the last 8 years. 
I have been "out" since 2002, but the layers of being a member of the LGBTQ community aren't easy to live with on a day to day basis. I dedicate this mini-series to all of those who came before us and fought for our right to marry who we want to marry, to go out in public and hold hands and kiss who we want. Love who want and be GAY AF!
This episode closes the series, but it doesn't mean that Pride stops being celebrated until next June. I want to celebrate my community 365/24/7 and share stories, inspire others, and be a trailblazer any way I can. 
I am here for the LGBTQ+ and for BIPOC and BLM. Pride is just about being out and gay. It's about community, love and the celebration of life!
Cheers, 
Queers!

EP75: 5 Ways to Create an Inclusive LGBTQ Workplace

EP75: 5 Ways to Create an Inclusive LGBTQ Workplace
Hello Chit Chatters!
Welcome back to another episode of Coaching For Millennials! In this episode we’re continuing with our theme of PRIDE since it is pride month, but more importantly I want to dive deeper into the elements of inclusion and create awareness around the space of inclusion in the workplace for LGBTQ people. 
I recently completed a Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Workplace Certification through the University of South Florida at the Muma College of Business. I learned so much in the short timeframe and although I have been active in doing toe DEI work, the more we are able to learn from each other and hear different perspectives, the awareness we can create in the spaces for others. 
I mention the certification program for a few reasons. 1. I am proud to have participated in the program and to have shared it with so many people who benefited from participating in it. 2. One of the topics discussed in the program that is important to creating an inclusive workplace is Emotional Intelligence. 
Now, we’ve talked about Emotional Intelligence a lot here on the show and we have a few episodes in season one where I have a few guests that shared their expertise on the topic, but for the purpose of this episode, I highlighted 4 areas of emotional intelligence I felt were most relevant to rolling up your sleeves and creating the space around emotional intelligence to then have a workplace that is more inclusive. 
Here are the 4 elements around Emotional Intelligence:
Self-Awareness
Social Awareness
Self-Management
Relationship Management
You can find more details on each of these at:
https://positivepsychology.com/emotional-intelligence-framworks
Moving along, you can hear all of my thoughts, experiences and opinions on how to create a space that is inclusive of emotional intelligence in the episode. Let’s dive into the 5 ways to make the workplace more inclusive for LGBTQ folks
Have Self-Awareness & Social Awareness
Educate Yourself
Don’t Be Afraid To Ask Questions OR Make Mistakes
Ask About Pronouns & Preferred Name
Show Up: Be an Ally and Create a Community for LBGTQ People
I also reference my good friend Dr. Steve Yacovelli aka The Gay Leadership Dude to learn more about his research, practice and book called “Pride Leadership”. He is a true testament to someone who is not only part of the LGBTQ community, but also a teacher and mentor. 
Steve was also on the podcast back in Season 1, Episode 39 if you want to hear about our conversation on leadership, inclusion and more!

EP74: PRIDE: Celebrating LGBTQ+ A Look at My Identity, Community & Family

EP74: PRIDE: Celebrating LGBTQ+ A Look at My Identity, Community & Family 
Hello Chit Chatters!
Happy Pride Month! June is always a special month for me and for the millions of LGBTQ+ Allies who celebrate love, community and equality. 
In this episode I am sharing my coming out story and how I formed my identity as a Gay Latinx, what it's like to understand your own identity and what it means for me as Gay Man.
I also share with you some tips on looking for your community in the LGBTQ+ scene. All of us in the world want to be seen, heard and belong. This is even more important when you're trying to discover your identity and having a community that you can connect with and trust. 
Then there is family. Family is always hard for any LGBTQ+ person. The journey is tough even after you feel fully comfortable in your own skin to remain confident in who you are and optimistic about being in spaces free of judgement and fear. Having a community and family that is your chosen family can bring you peace, love and warmth. 
This episode is where I am truly vulnerable in sharing parts of my coming out story, the evolution of uncovering my LGBTQ identity and being happy and loved by me. 
Listen in and let me know what you think. This one is for all of us, because love is love and equality should be a right for all!
