But just for those of you who may be new and don't know who I am, I am Gloria Grace, the light messenger and spiritual alignment coach and women entrepreneurs hire me to clear the inner blocks, keeping you stuck so that you can live the life you want now. And today's guest is an amazing woman. She is an award-winning entrepreneur featured on the reality show Secret Millionaire. Hilary DeCesare helps women turn typical life transitions into transformation. And she's been coaching women in her Silicon Valley success methods for decades. And her new book is called Relaunch - Spark Your Heart to Ignite Your Life, which I like that title and it details what's beyond IQ and EQ, namely 3HQ, which we are going to talk about in a bit. But first, I want to officially bring in Hilary and welcome you officially to Live, Love, Engage. 00:01:24 - Hilary DeCesare Gloria it’s so fun. If it's anything like what we were talking about before, it will be very lively. 00:01:29 - Gloria Grace Rand Well, I certainly hope so. And I love having really heart centered people on the show and also people who are doing wonderful things in the world and beyond, even what I read just shared with people in your bio. You also have your own podcast as well, and you're a speaker and you do lots of amazing things. And the fact is that you also started out as a CEO of a Silicon Valley company, which is that's unusual in its face right there because you're a woman and usually it's a very traditional male bastions, shall we say. So I am really curious to know how you transitioned from that into doing the work that you're doing today. 00:02:24 - Hilary DeCesare Well, you know what? Doesn't it always start when you're like, well, let me tell you when I was young, but I'm going to zip through to college where I went pre-med and I ended up not enjoying the premed thing. My dad thought, let's go ahead and not do that. Let's break the cycle. So it ended up that I went and got a degree in psychology and I really wanted to get into business at that point. I had been fortunate enough to get into a class only through the divine intervention. There was a snowstorm and the computer system went down and I did a bubble in the right spot and I got this class and they couldn't kick me out, which was great. It was personal selling. And that led me to Silicon Valley. It led me to Oracle. I was there in a high-tech company for almost ten years. And yes, as you said, it was definitely a boys’ world. I was swimming upstream, but man, I was going to do everything I could to make it happen. So, you know, Cheryl Sandberg is telling me to lean in. I'm leaning in. I am like, all in. And of course, she was the CEO of Facebook and Meta, and this was before even the lean in movement happened. And after about ten years, I thought, you know what? I want to do something different. I want to help others level up their businesses. I want to help people, men and women at that time, develop a company, be able to go out, raise money, be able to understand the dynamics of business and not have a business degree, but still be able to run a successful business. Whether you're starting out as a startup at zero or whether you're trying to scale from six to seven to eight figures. So I did that for a very long time, and I was helping numerous women and men, and then I got the bug. I'm like, I really want to start my own ventures. So I did, and I was able to raise almost $10 million for one company and be able to launch others. And I realized that I kept coaching along the way. I kept having people come into my world. And what I noticed, which I think is the most important, is at that time, people would come to me, and they, especially women, and they would say, all right, I just want to focus on my business and scaling it. And I would ask, well, tell me about your personal life, tell me about what's going on with that. And it'd be like, well, wait, I don't even want to deal with that, because I haven't been able to get out there. I haven't been able to find the one, or my marriage really isn't doing very well. I'm working all the time, and there was always this disconnect between personal and professional lives. Well, then I started to go through that, and I ended up getting a divorce, and I had three kids. And so I knew at that time something had to give. There was some piece of this whole element of consulting, and we called it consulting. Now it's coaching that had to bring personal and professional together. 00:05:45 - Gloria Grace Rand Wow. Yeah, I can relate to that. Especially the part about finding yourself still coaching people. Because it's interesting, I think, especially when you are doing some sort of you're working with clients, even if you're working with them in a different capacity. That sometimes can happen. Because my business has been for the longest time, it was copywriting. And so I was helping businesses with their online marketing. And yet I would find that just naturally they'd be asking me about what else can I do to grow my business? And things like that. And so I just started coaching them unofficially. I never really declared that I was a business coach, but I wound up doing that. So it's interesting that that happens. So I like that you realize, because that's the other thing, too, is I've noticed that being successful in one area of your life is lovely, but if you’re not, it's at the expense, shall we say, of other areas of your life, then it sort of takes the bloom off of it. I'm trying to think of the right metaphor or something, but make it as fun, right? When you're having that, I'm thinking it's like, is there a chicken and egg here? So did you come up with this 3HQ and then you wrote a book about it? Or did you in the process of writing the book, maybe did you develop it? 00:07:20 - Hilary DeCesare Well, I think that and we were laughing before because you call yourself the Light Messenger, and many have called me the Relaunch Queen because there's been so many impactful relaunches in my life, which helps when people come to me and say, have you ever had anything like this happen? I'll be like, well, it's not just my customer's life or my client's life or it's my life. I actually had that. And eventually I had to kind of look up to the universe and say, all right, enough. I don't want any more. I don't want any more relaunches or any more of these major transitions that are happening in my life. But then you realize that that is life. It's global relaunches that are happening right now. It's personal relaunches, professional relaunches, trying to figure out your purpose, your passion, those are all relaunches, and there's positive and there's the negative ones. And so as I was kind of like, really I was involved in another company, I started to really look at what as a woman, and I love how Brene Brown defines middle age between 35 and when you're dead. So I think it encompasses a lot of us that are probably listening. And I realized, you know what, how can I really, at this point, with all of the experience that I've had, how do I share, how do I give back? How do I impact with the experiences that I've seen and the thousands of people that I've worked with? And so it was during a time where my mom,...
