Episode 100: Beyond competition and into the creative plane with Melanie Ann Layer

To celebrate 100 episodes of the podcast, I have a very special guest for you. In today’s episode, I have the gorgeous Melanie Ann Layer, the CEO of Alpha Femme, and a multi 8-figure business mentor for luxury brands and entrepreneurs, and as you’ll hear, she has not only made such an impact on my own life but on the lives of many thousands and thousands of women around the world.  In this potent episode, you’ll hear:  My introduction to Melanie’s work and my honest thoughts from when I first became aware of Alpha Femme years ago [5:14] What’s been on her mind the most lately and how Melanie is feeling a “back to basics” energy in what she does [8:23] The key lessons that have been showing up for her as she climbs the staircase of life and views things from a new vantage point [12:00] What the big differences are in living in the creative versus the competitive plane and the courageous conversation Melanie is encourage women to have with each other [23:13] Why she approaches business as an art more so than the traditional logical approach [25:23] The incredible story of Melanie and I bumping into each other in Paris, France, and the synchronicities of this event [29:18] What Melanie wants others to understand about being “the best” at something [37:08] The downsides that exist when you get stuck in that competitive plane and the things that pain her right now about the next generation of women [41:50] What is the next version of Melanie’s Beautiful Soul-Led Life that she is feeling into, and why she’s so excited about her new member, We Are Alpha Femme [53:44] I feel that everyone needs to hear Melanie’s epic story and know her beautiful story and mission. In this episode, she reveals why as women, we need to be taking the creative path and one of collaboration, not competition, if we hope to all evolve and achieve what it is that we are all meant to be, and have.  Is there something that Melanie shared that resonated with your soul the most?
