Alexis Meruelo on What It Really Takes to Lead as a Woman (Hint: It Starts with Self-Worth)

What if the worst moment of your life was actually preparing you for your purpose? Alexis Meruelo is an author, speaker, founder of the Business of Her conference, and Chief Vision and Purpose Officer of the Meruelo Group, overseeing corporate social responsibility across companies, including SAHARA Las Vegas and the Grand Sierra Resort. But her path to power didn't come from playing it safe. It came from a devastating breakup that forced her to redefine what success actually meant. In this conversation, Alexis shares her three-phase framework from her new book Getting You Ready for Power: believe in yourself, build your team, and rise to lead. We talk about why self-worth is the foundation of authentic leadership, how to find mentors who actually support your growth (and avoid the ones who don't), and why the in-between moments are where we discover who we're meant to become. If you're navigating a transition, questioning your worth, or wondering how to step into something bigger, this conversation is your permission slip.   What You'll Hear: The breakup that became Alexis's wake-up call and forced her to sit with herself Why hiring a career coach was the best investment she ever made The three-phase framework for stepping into power Why women who skip the self-worth work will never lead authentically What self-worth actually means and why it has nothing to do with your achievements How to separate your identity from your accomplishments (especially if you're a high achiever)   Connect with Alexis: Website: https://alexismeruelo.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/alexismeruelo/   Let's Connect: https://www.instagram.com/kassidylynnesocial
