In this episode, Elena talks with Hilary Hoffman about how she got integrated into the C-Suite Collective. After nearly a decade in finance, spending her time most notably at Goldman Sachs and Oaktree Capital Management, Hilary Hoffman launched her fitness platform The SOTO Method in 2021. The SOTO Method is a program she initially created for herself; strapped for time, she craved a more efficient burn. The workout needed to reflect her reality: she had only 35 minutes, and every single second needed to count. Through Hilary’s extensive knowledge of isometrics, SOTO delivers approachability, efficiency and results. In class, you will be reminded to stay in the “can” mindset time and time again. This means physical strength starts with believing four words, “I can do this.” “After my time at Goldman, I made a pivot within the industry, and I landed in a spot that I was not particularly happy in. And that unhappiness brought me to a place of self-discovery. During that whole process, what I decided to do was instead of thinking, This is what I want to do next, I would have conversations with as many humans as I could. There was no agenda other than, ‘Tell me why you love your job. Tell me what you love about the day-to-day of your role at this company.’ I started to learn that people who loved their jobs the most had a sense of agency that they got to access on a daily basis. And more importantly, they were in roles where they felt like they were utilizing their strengths on a daily basis. And I had come to a place where a lot of the friction I experienced in finance . . . I was good enough at my job where I could have 100% been happy if I had stayed there and pivoted companies once. However, I decided to figure out what were my strengths and where can I best express them? And during this time, the SOTO method was something that I'd always come back to.” Hilary says, “It's such a powerful exercise of just saying out loud, ‘What is holding me back from taking that next step?’” Join us to learn more.  Contact Hilary Website: https://www.sotomethod.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sotomethod/ Linked In: https://www.linkedin.com/company/the-soto-method Credits: This podcast was produced by the following amazing team:  John Biethan, President of Imagine Podcasting  Sam De Santo, Creative Director  Rye Taylor, Podcast Design Strategist &amp; Producer  Alan Meaney, Audio Engineer  Meg McCarley, Brand Designer &amp; Social Media Manager  Raejan Noh, Content Writer  Jennifer Harshman, Content Writer  Aaron Boykin, Musician &amp; Artist (Get updates about Aaron’s music via Instagram)

Ep. 28 Hilary Hoffman Founder of the SOTO Method

Steve Friedman

LEAD

What is the difference between a mentor and a coach? We look at that in this episode, and in our interview segment, we have Steve Friedman. Steve is an executive coach and consultant who has had several professions. He was the president of Pace University from 2007 to 2017, and he served as the dean of the Elizabeth Hals School of Law at Pace University. He was a well-established lawyer and created many, many breakthroughs for people in the world. He says, “For the last four or five years, I've been an executive coach for both companies and nonprofits. Through a variety of problems the university as a whole experienced, I became president virtually overnight. I did that for 10 years, and then I retired again in 2017, which brought me to what I'm doing today. I thought that being a coach would be a continuation of a high-level view of what I'd been doing all my life, which was basically helping people and bringing my experience and whatever talent I had to help them.” “I can tell you a brief story about myself. This is when I was president of Pace University early in my time there. After about nine months, I asked a coach to do a 180 and interview everybody. One of the comments that came back was ‘Steve's a smart guy. He makes up his mind quickly. And when he makes up his mind, he stops listening.’ Nothing could be further from the truth. I puzzled a lot about that, and I realized that what was going on is that at our management committee meetings, I was frustrated by the fact that everyone was talking to me instead of to each other. I finally got what I thought was a truly brilliant idea, which is when someone started to talk, I would look down, and then they would have to talk to each other because I wasn't looking at them. The fact is everyone saw this as he's not listening to me. And instead of being a brilliant idea, it was really one of the dumbest things I've ever done.” The biggest piece of advice he would give C-suite leaders right now is that professionals rise and fall based on what they do, and leaders rise and fall based on what they lead other people to do.

Ep. 25 Lights! Camera! Take Action! feat. Santino Jimenez

Robyn Koenig

Are you a small business owner or someone who’s considering launching your own business? Then, you’ll definitely want to listen to Elena’s conversation with Small Business Consultant and Certified Business Coach Robyn Koenig. Together, they talk about the lessons she’s learned, how to utilize structures in your small business, the power of simplifying, and more! Check out Elena’s website to learn more about how she can support you in seeing and using the power that resides within you. What could simplicity provide you access to? Many times, people believe that simplicity is equivalent to low-impact. But that’s not the case. In fact, simplicity allows you to experience life more fully because, instead of being pulled in so many directions you can only give a fraction of your attention to whatever’s going on, you can be fully present and engaged in the things that truly matter in your business, life, and relationships. In her Weekly Coaching Tip, Elena shares how she’s focused on simplicity in her own life and issues a call to action for you to do the same. In her interview segment, she talks with grace-filled Small Business Consultant and Certified Business Coach Robyn Koenig. Having spent 20 years in various roles in corporate, non-profit, and freelance environments, she has the experience and passion to help small business owners level up their businesses. After her second layoff in 2017, Robyn decided to launch her own business so she could dictate her opportunities and create a career she loves. Whether you’re a freelancer, coach, small business owner, or entrepreneur-explorer, her journey of perseverance, creativity, grit, and grace will inspire you. In their conversation, Elena and Robyn discuss the lessons Robyn learned through launching her small business, the pitfalls many small business owners fall into, why it’s good to try new ventures, how structures can be a small business owner’s best friend, and more!

Ep. 23 Embracing the Journey feat. Aisha Crumbine

John Gennaro

Wheeling Symphony Orchestra conductor and music director John Gennaro Devlin joins Elena Armijo to talk about living in light of your values, the importance of relationships when you’re creating change, how to create a bridge between the artistic, business, and blue-collar communities, and more! Learn more about how Elena Armijo can support you in seeing and using the power that resides within you. What do values have to do with leadership? Too often, we are either not clear on our values or do not make our decisions based on them. When we aren’t living from our values, we can limit or destroy our impact in the world. So, how do we get clear on what our values are? Elena recommends  an exercise from Brene Brown, which you can use to help clarify your values and determine if you are making decisions in alignment with them.  In her Weekly Coaching Tip, Elena provides insight and resources so you can discover your values and lead from them. In her interview segment, Elena Armijo speaks with conductor and music director at the Wheeling Symphony Orchestra, John Gennaro Devlin. Originally from New York, he wanted to become a professional clarinetist, but, due to his outgoing personality, he pivoted into a role that he says, “Felt like home.” Now, at the Wheeling Symphony Orchestra, John excels at creating a familial culture amongst the musicians and staff and creating bonds in his politically diverse community. In this episode, John shares why it’s vital an organization's decisions are aligned with its values, how beginning professionals can change their mindset so they can excel in their careers, why the orchestra is showcasing current American composers, what he’s doing to create relationships in his community, and more!

Ep. 20 Being a Resilient Entrepreneur feat. Michelle Mercier

As we navigate life, it’s easy to forget our dreams, or to give up on dreaming altogether. Today, Elena talks with Tynan Davis, who encourages us to dream bigger, remember who we are, and live with joy. Check out Elena’s website to learn more about how she can support you in seeing and using the power that resides within you. What dreams have you forgotten about? As we navigate life, it’s easy to forget our dreams or to give up on dreaming altogether. But dreams are important. Eleanor Roosevelt once said, “The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.” When you’re creating your future or changing your direction in life, it’s vital to resurrect those dreams you used to have as a wide-eyed, seemingly invincible young adult, and look at your life in light of them. What did you use to dream about? Where do you want to go from here? What new dreams do you want to have? In her Weekly Coaching Tip, Elena provides tips for how you can remember your dreams, create new ones, and live in light of possibility, rather than fear. In her interview segment, Elena speaks with Grammy-award winning opera vocalist and winsome leader, Tynan Davis. Tynan is a fabulous artist, having toured with Wynton Marsalis and the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra and on the 25th anniversary North American tour of Phantom of the Opera (where she met her husband—talk about romantic!).  Through Tynan’s story, you’ll be encouraged that even if you’ve given up on your dreams—or if you’ve settled for small dreams—you can reclaim them and create a new future of joy, artistry, and possibilities. In this conversation, Elena and Tynan talk about balancing excellence and perfectionism, moving past your limiting beliefs, navigating motherhood, and owning your identity, instead of relying on your career or your success to define you.

Now is the time to stop sitting, stop waiting, and start listening.  DARE to go after what matters most.  Spend an hour with Elena and buckle up for some badass conversation, compassionate listening, and a solid connection that will challenge, inspire and empower you.

Learn more about how Elena Armijo can support you in seeing and using the power that resides within you. On the second segment of The Collective Corner, Elena Armijo is joined by the beautiful Bebuo Ewa and Hillary Hittner. Bebuo’s name means “persevere,” which is exactly what she has done and what she is passionate about helping others do by engaging in transformational leadership. Hillary is an inclusive leader who is committed to creating an empathetic space so that everyone can be courageous and own their leadership. These ladies cover topics like DEI and vulnerability, offer insights on how you can engage in self-care when faced with hard conversations, and share the ways they have walked their clients through conflict, in order to avoid burnout. According to Bebuo, love is the best way to avoid burnout: “I bring a ton of love as a defense mechanism to compensate for all of the experienced anger and hate that comes towards me.” Bebuo is eager to launch her new 5-month program, the Executive Playground Experience, which encapsulates her approach to hard conversations. Through her program, she will offer leadership coaching, group coaching, DEIB work, and a special wellness weekend. As Hillary explains, her own passion to help others has been burning for as long as she can remember: “I was always looking for the person who was maybe not inside the group and how to bring them into the group. So I was always looking to see who might be, for lack of a better word… the underdog, or the person who might not be getting the spotlight, who might not see their own greatness.” Now, she is launching a new round of her Inclusive Leadership Mastermind for women, which will cover aspects of race, inclusive leadership, and more.

Ep. 18 Creating a Culture of Love feat. Bebuo Ewa and Hillary Hittner

Learn more about how Elena Armijo can support you in seeing and using the power that resides within you. How do I create a culture of diversity and belonging in my organization? This is a question that has saturated much of the conversation surrounding company culture. Contrary to popular belief, creating the culture you want is not a one-size-fits-all endeavor. Instead, it requires you to take a good look at four distinct areas and adjust accordingly in order to begin creating a culture of belonging. In Elena’s Weekly Coaching Tip, you’ll discover that creating a diverse culture is not about metrics, but about creating a space of support, love, and forward movement. In Elena’s interview segment, she speaks with social impact leader and world-changer, Richie Kendall. He is the Co-Founder and Chief Experience Officer of Goodworld, a platform that helps nonprofits and companies fundraise, connect with their communities, and maximize their social impact. Not only is Richie an exceptional human being, he is also a great example of someone who is unapologetically committed to living out their values. In their conversation, Richie shares his mission in life, the power of storytelling and how your own narrative adds meaning to others, how technology can be used to maximize social impact, and why creating a culture of belonging begins with you.   Let’s Get Social!

In Elena’s Weekly Coaching Tip, you’ll discover that creating a diverse culture is not about metrics, but about creating a space of support, love, and forward movement. In Elena’s interview segment, she speaks with social impact leader and world-changer, Richie Kendall. He is the Co-Founder and Chief Experience Officer of Goodworld, a platform that helps nonprofits and companies fundraise, connect with their communities, and maximize their social impact. Not only is Richie an exceptional human being, he is also a great example of someone who is unapologetically committed to living out their values. In their conversation, Richie shares his mission in life, the power of storytelling and how your own narrative adds meaning to others, how technology can be used to maximize social impact, and why creating a culture of belonging begins with you.   Let’s Get Social!

Ep. 17 How to Create a Good World feat. Richie Kendall

Learn more about how Elena Armijo can support you in seeing and using the power that resides within you. Welcome to a new feature on our podcast called The Collective Corner! As the founder of the C-Suite Collective, I realized that we have SO MUCH gold on our platform and we want to share it with the world. Twice a month, we will be bringing you a conversation around leadership from the viewpoint of coaches, specifically the ones on our team, to amplify the conversations we are having with clients around the world. For the first The Collective Corner, we have fantastic coaches Stephanie River and Sebastian Little. Stephanie is all about helping high-performers lay down their armor and tap into their vulnerability, so they can live and work courageously. Sebastian’s focus is on causing disruption by helping others dive into the mess, so they can optimize culture, close performance gaps, and unlock leadership potential. Together, they talk about the power of being in the mess of life to achieve more and the importance of vulnerability in order to create belonging. Through experiences with their clients, they share insight on how you can create deeper connections within your organization, and how you can enhance your leadership through relationships and authentic communication. As Sebastian powerfully said, “When we can recognize the superpowers in ourselves and in other people, we elevate everybody together.” Additionally, Stephanie and Sebastian highlight the 75 Slow Challenge, a 75-day program they created to help you go farther and move faster by slowing down. Too often, as Stephanie notes, “People move fast to avoid the mess.” Through their program, they hope to help people slow down, embrace the mess, and move forward in authenticity.

Ep. 15 Owning Your Power feat. Christine Sachs

Learn more about how Elena Armijo can support you in seeing and using the power that resides within you. Can you unblock creativity? So many people believe that they aren’t creative, either because they do not see themselves as creative or because somewhere along the way, someone told them that they weren’t creative. But that’s simply not true. Everyone is creative—it’s just that not everyone has accessed their creativity. In her Weekly Coaching Tip, Elena provides three tips for how you can access your creativity. In her interview, Elena speaks with Bethania Baray-Harrison. Not only is she a new mom, she is also the Director of Education and Civic Programs at Opera Memphis, a recipient of the McCleave Fellowship in Directing from Opera Memphis, a committed advocate and liaison for the Latinx community, and a rising social media influencer. In Elena’s words, “She's light. She’s love. She's passion.” In their conversation, they talk about Bethania’s journey from New Mexico State University to becoming the Director of Education and Civic Programs at Opera Memphis, the future for the healing, connective power of opera, and how the arts create opportunities for underserved populations.

Ep. 14 How Opera Empowers the Community feat. Bethania Baray-Harrison

Learn more here about how Elena Armijo can support you in seeing and using the power that resides within you. What are you committed to? Far too often, we get caught up in how we feel and allow our emotions to color how we live. It’s not that our emotions are strictly bad. In fact, they serve as “mile markers” that signify where we are and what we might need to change. However, if we allow our emotions to completely control our decisions, then our lives would change with every passing emotion. Instead, we need to determine what we are committed to, despite hardships or our feelings. In her Weekly Coaching Tip, Elena shares a simple, yet powerful leadership insight from Lebron James that you can use to clarify your emotional state. In her interview, Elena talks with director, choreographer, performer, and artistic director of ALMA NYC, Zanza Steinberg. Whether she’s leading dancers to climb Mount Kilimanjaro, funding scholarships for women to attend college in Africa, or launching her own media company, Media by Z, Zanza puts her heart and soul in all she does. Together, Elena and Zanza discuss the origin of ALMA NYC, the connective power of art, and why everyone should be audacious and reach for the stars. You don’t want to miss this! Let’s Get Social!
