| 03 Nov 2020 | 29 The Power Of Media Literacy - An Inside Look At How The Media Works and How To Be A Critical Thinker and Creator | 00:17:57 | |
"Knowing who you are, what you stand for, and how you want to show up in the world is really important and that starts with understanding what's going on in the world and the impact you have in sharing it." - Angela Chee Did you know that it's media literacy week here in the United States? Our media literacy is a vital skill we all need. We need to be aware of the stories that we tell and the stories that we hear. I believe the three most important skills we need to thrive moving forward is taking care of our mental health, being able to communicate effectively, and being media literate.
So on today's show, we are taking a deep dive into the concept of media literacy. What is it and why it matters? Also, how can we understand it and the power you have once you do. Listen in as I discuss what it was like to work as a journalist before social media, how the arrival of cable news changed the way we get our current events, and how to determine a credible source.

| 16 Nov 2021 | 53 The Power To Shape The Future with Keynote Speaker and Futurist Crystal Washington | 00:47:54 | |
"When you know who you are, people cannot shake you." - Crystal Washington Do you, as an individual, have the power to shape the future? Today's guest is a keynote speaker, Technology Strategist, and one of Forbes 50 Leading Female futurists. What is a futurist, you may ask? Crystal Washington shows people how to harness their intuition and data to better work with others to shape the future and she does this with Fortune 500 companies like Google, Microsoft, and GE. Crystal is also the author of the books One Tech Action and The Social Media Why. She and I talk about the power of being underestimated, where her power came from, and how adversity can embolden us. Crystal describes the value she derives from her role as the keeper of history in her family and explains why it’s so important to have a global perspective. We also talk about the importance of honoring your boundaries and how we both knew when we had stumbled across one of those moments where we have to choose ourselves.

| 24 Aug 2021 | 48 The "No Pain, No Gain" Fallacy | 00:11:30 | |
"Do we always have to suffer to achieve our goals?" - Angela Chee What do we lose when we choose to believe in "no pain, no gain" at all costs? I admit that growing up, I thought that working too hard was a badge of honor. Even as a young adult I fell into that all too common trap of believing that the last one to leave the office each day was winning a contest of some kind. Early on in my career, I believed that it was okay to be working seven days a week -- and I enjoyed all of it. Then I got burnt out. This is an episode about reevaluating how we are programmed and when that starts to get in our way. We have to ask ourselves if we were brought up with this mentality, in which ways it served us, and in which ways it did not. What was the outcome?
In today's show, we talk about what we lose when we choose to believe the common saying "no pain, no gain" at all costs, where the term comes from, and how to honor our boundaries.

| 19 Oct 2021 | 51 The Power of Commitment | 00:05:30 | |
“In this age of insta-fame, what does it take to truly be successful?" - Angela Chee What are you committed to? Let this episode be your reminder to cultivate moments in your life that make you smile. My reminder happened at a Maroon 5 concert a couple of weeks ago. It inspired me to think about commitment; commitment to ourselves, commitment to our craft, commitment to our calling, and commitment to keep growing and evolving. Sometimes it takes a magical moment to be reminded that what matters the most are all the things behind the scenes that people don’t see.
In today's show, we talk about the power of commitment, how to stay motivated when no one is looking, and what it takes to get where you're going.

| 01 Dec 2020 | 31 How To Shift Your Limiting Beliefs And Reduce Stress In Our New Virtual World | 00:13:57 | |
"Virtual can be just as powerful and connected -- and can even give you more ways to be creative." - Angela Chee What are you grateful for? It is the week after Thanksgiving here in the United States. With everything that is happening around us, it can sometimes be all too easy to forget just how much there is to be grateful for. I am grateful for you as a listener and for the technology that allows me to connect with you personally, to share with you, and hopefully inspire you to create positive change in the world. But this episode isn’t all about gratitude. It is also about the power of shifting your limiting beliefs. During this time, we all need to shift our limiting beliefs about what is possible in our work and in our personal lives. It is time to create something new. How do we do that? In this episode, I outline three simple steps to get you back on track to being an effective communicator and leader.
On today's show, we also talk about how to communicate on camera, the perks of doing virtual events, and how to keep your audience engaged online. I discuss four things you can do immediately to reduce your work-related stress, how to adjust to a primarily virtual workplace, and why it helps to sometimes simply shake it off.

Today I talk about the power of connection and mindset with professional speaker Frank Kitchen. Frank shares how he stepped out of his comfort zone as an introvert after some helpful advice and eventually became a professional speaker and performer.

We also tackle the touchy topic of code-switching and how we can use it as a way to connect with others.
In today's show, we talk about why it is important to surround yourself with people who will tell you the truth and how to knock down your internal barriers to step into your power of the Only.

| 28 Apr 2020 | 12 Christina Blacken - How To Disrupt The Status Quo, Break Through Stereotypes and Build Connection Using the Power Of Story | 00:48:14 | |
“As I got older I realized how to stand my ground, respect myself, while also being able to have deeper conversations with people who are not like me - just so I can build connection and understanding." - Christina Blacken How will we reinvent and thrive as our current systems and beliefs are being challenged? It’s a time for deep transformation. The Power of The Only has always been about leaders who own their voice and their power. Leaders who serve as bridges and are able to communicate in a way that others can hear in order to create real change through abundance and not scarcity. Today's guest, Christina Blacken, is one of these leaders. Christina is the Founder and Chief Story Strategist of The New Quo and host of the Sway Them In Color podcast. She helps leaders communicate on a deeper level, sell their bold visions, build thriving diverse teams, and communicate in ways that improve their company's work culture. You’ve seen her work in ELLE.com, The Huffington Post, and more.
In this episode, Christina talks about how to see being "the only" as a superpower and not a burden, how to shift the status quo, and how all leaders can learn to be more empathetic and emotionally intelligent in order to create real change. We also talk about stereotypes and conditioning. We call out our own unconscious biases in others and ourselves, and more on today's show.

| 24 Jan 2023 | 71 How to Embrace Not Being Ready | 00:08:35 | |
"Downshifting your ambitions doesn’t necessarily mean you are throwing away your past or becoming a slacker. It may actually mean that you’ve finally recognized what it takes for achievement and ambition to be sustainable." - Dorie Clark What does it mean to always be ready? Today I talk about how to embrace not being ready. At the start of every new year, it can be all too easy to bog ourselves down with newly formed goals and deadlines, and plans. It can be much harder to purposefully slow down and simplify, but maybe that is just what we need right now. Maybe we don't need to always be ready.
In today's show, I talk about giving ourselves permission to slow down and times when the power of The Only can be both a blessing and a burden. I share how I discovered my strong suit can also be my weakness and how we can all discover what doesn't serve us and let it go.

| 06 Apr 2021 | 40 The Power Of Swagger with Author Leslie Ehm | 00:42:24 | |
"You can be accepted for who you are. You don't have to be accepted despite who you are and you don't have to limit who you are in order to be accepted.” - Leslie Ehm How do we fall in love with not fitting in? Leslie Ehm can tell us. As a former TV host and Creative Director in advertising, Leslie has spent the past 15 years helping top executives and teams unleash their unique brand of swagger. She’s traveled the globe with her award-winning company Combustion working with top organizations like Google, Disney, Pepsico, Lenovo, TD Bank, Uber, and many more. And now she's put all of her tips, tricks, and tales of inspiration into a new book: Swagger - Unleash Everything You Are and Become Everything You Want.
Leslie tells me the success in her life was a series of accidents, but digging deeper into her story I believe it’s because of her swagger — the bold way she moves forward with integrity despite challenges. In today's episode, Leslie shares her "Only" story and how she found her swagger. Hear stories about her purple mohawk, how she became a TV host in the U.K. by walking away from an opportunity, and more. We talk about how to manifest swagger, how ambition can hold us back, and how to rid ourselves of Imposter syndrome and shift our mindset.

| 24 May 2022 | 62 The Power Of “Undoing” with Author and “Untigering” Movement Founder Iris Chen | 00:52:22 | |
"A lot of untigering is about turning inward." - Iris Chen What can we undo versus do? That is what we are exploring today: the power of undoing. It takes a lot to shift culture and break generational cycles, so to help me explore this topic is Iris Chen, a self-described recovering tiger mother, the founder of the "untigering" movement, and author of Untigering: Peaceful Parenting for the Deconstructing Tiger Parent. After seeing the negative effects of authoritarian parenting and unhealthy cultural expectations in her own life, she decided to dedicate herself to promoting mental health, peaceful parenting, and self-directed learning. In today's show, we talk about the undoing process that must occur for us to truly step into our power of The Only and we explain why this message resonates with both parents and non-parents alike.
Listen in to learn how to reevaluate your relationship with your children and your parents and how to unlearn patterns you picked up in your childhood. We also talk about Iris' early use of success and achievement as coping mechanisms, how to move past perfectionism, and ways to create moments of intergenerational healing in your own family.

| 09 Feb 2021 | 36 An Inside Look At Book Publishing And The Power Of Integrity with Jesse Finklestein - Co-founder Page Two Books | 00:57:25 | |
"I hope there are a lot of prospective authors out there who really internalize your multidimensional concept of "The Only" and who start realizing that they have a concept that shines in that Only kind of way." - Jesse Finkelstein What does it take to be an author today? The Power Of The Only isn’t just about individuals. It is also about shifting old systems to carve a new path. It is about not being afraid to be "The Only" to create what’s next. And that is what's happening right now. "Onlys" like you are creating what’s next. Industries, old structures, and traditional ways of thinking are being disrupted. That’s what Jesse Finkelstein, Co-Founder of Page Two Books, has been doing in the publishing industry for years. Her work is evolving the traditional publishing model to help thought leaders, subject matter experts, and organizations publish leading non-fiction books. Jesse has spent her entire career in books. She has held several management roles at publishing houses, including COO of D&M Publishers and Associate Publisher at Raincoast Books, the Canadian publisher of Harry Potter. Despite the pandemic, Page Two is continuing to grow. They recently built an in-house audiobook program and announced a new global distribution program. Jesse shares how a devastating career moment gave her the foundational courage to launch her company and how a phone call from another “Only” in the industry gave her the ability to see the gift in the challenge.
In today's show, we talk about what it takes to be an author, the differences between traditional and hybrid publishing, and what inspired Jesse to create a company that supports authors by sharing their Only with the world. Jesse Finkelstein discusses her journey in traditional publishing, how she navigated being the only woman on a management team, and how to survive in competitive industries while maintaining your integrity.

"I think a lot of us believe if we did have that space we would lead differently -- we would show up differently. A lot of my work right now, I call it the Power of Me and the Power of We, it's the power of yourself, but what is the power if we come together, like what could we do together?” - Deepa Purushothaman Are you ready to meet this moment?

Earlier in her career, Deepa became the first Indian-American woman and one of the youngest people ever to make Partner at Deloitte, where she spent more than 20 years focusing on women’s leadership and inclusion strategies. She is also a Women and Public Policy Program Leader in Practice at the Harvard Kennedy School.

We talk about how Deepa overcame imposter syndrome, conformity, and her cultural programming, why it’s time for us to redefine power and success, and how we can all create our own leadership style.

| 19 Apr 2022 | 61 The Power of Women’s Brains and Aging with Dr. Louann Brizendine | 00:45:52 | |
"Biology is destiny unless you know what it's doing to you." - Dr. Louann Brizendine Today's guest, Dr. Louann Brizendine, New York Times Bestselling Author of "The Female Brain" and "The Male Brain" says it's time for a new and radically positive understanding of aging for women. In this episode, she shares actionable science-backed steps for increasing longevity and well-being from her new book "The Upgrade-How Women's Brain Gets Stronger and Better In Mid-life and Beyond." Dr. Brizendine went through her own struggle with her health while she was studying medicine as an undergraduate. Following her experience of being ignored and disbelieved, she was inspired to work in neuropsychiatry and has been on a mission ever since to help women understand their bodies and brains so they can be empowered. While studying the differences between males and females as a student, she found that she didn't agree with the general attitudes that only men's bodies should be studied and that female hormones would interfere with accurate results. Her belief that our biological differences should be celebrated made her somewhat of an Only in her field at the time-- and that's what inspired her to persevere. Listen in as Dr. Brizendine shares her Only story, how she overcomes her challenges, and why women's lives get better in the second half. We also talk about the four phases of The Transition, what women can do in the pre-transition phase of menopause to optimize their health, and the simple move you can do every day to help your brain.
Louann is also the Lynne ad Marc Benioff Endowed Chair in Clinical Psychiatry a the University of California San Francisco and founder of the UCSF’s Women’s Mood and Hormone Clinic. She completed her degree in Neurobiology at UC Berkeley, graduated from Yale School of Medicine, and completed her residency at Harvard Medical School.

"From challenge comes change." - Angela Chee How do we continue to thrive and move forward when the whole world feels tired? This past year of The Power of The Only podcast we have been on a beautiful journey, exploring new conversations with amazing guests. I hope our episodes this past year have empowered you to step more fully into your power of The Only! I know I have grown a lot this past year. Each episode means a lot to me. I have enjoyed reflecting back on the topics and events of 2020 -- and can’t wait to share more with you. We launched on International Women’s Day last year on March 8th and it’s that time of the year again. It's time to celebrate women and that's what today's episode is all about. A challenged world is an alert world. We can choose to challenge and call out bias and inequality and we can choose to seek out and celebrate the achievements of other women. Collectively, we can all help create an inclusive world.
On today's show, we celebrate some wise words from women who were past guests on The Power Of The Only, we redefine what it means to be resilient, share my own resilience challenge and I share how to understand the emotional phases of change. Show Notes:

"It's time to listen to yourself. It's time to take action. And it's time to move forward with whatever you've been wanting to create." - Angela Chee What action can you take now to create change for yourself, your family, or your community? Today's podcast was inspired by leaders I met at a Meta Boost Small Business event.

Many had similar stories about being the only, and carving their own path vs following a formula.
In this episode, I talk about how now is the time to move forward with the positive change that you're being called to put out into the world. Listen in for an inspirational boost.

| 30 Jun 2020 | 20 How To Tap Into Your Power Of The Only To Create Individual and Institutional Change with Dr. Cleopatra Kamperveen | 00:40:54 | |
"We are all prejudice, and I think if we can start with that foundational piece of knowledge - that common ground - then we stand up and speak up from there without being so afraid." - Dr. Cleopatra Kamperveen How is being "the only" an asset that can lead you to new ideas, models and innovation that our world needs? Today's guest, Dr. Cleopatra Kamperveen, has been grappling with this issue since finding her calling in reproductive health at an early age. She knows firsthand that sometimes it is impossible to create real and large scale change by simply working hard. Dr. Cleopatra is a scientist, professor, fertility strategist, and the Executive Director of the Fertility & Pregnancy Institute. After losing her own mother at a young age, she dedicated her life to helping women all over the world and is revolutionizing the field of fertility, reproductive health, and pregnancy. She is also the first woman of color to be hired on the tenure track at USC in the department where she began as a professor.
On today's show, Dr. Cleopatra Kamperveen and I talk about the secret to harnessing the power of the only despite the odds and how being underestimated can work to your advantage. We also explore the science behind prejudice and discuss why it is important to recognize it in ourselves. Dr. Cleopatra also discusses her journey to becoming a tenured professor, how she created the family and life of her dreams, and why it is important to create changes at the institutional level.

| 27 Jul 2021 | Re-Release: The Power Of Clearing and Vision | 00:13:51 | |
How do we move forward in a post-pandemic world? We've been through a lot this past year and half and the world is trying to get back to business and life. But while on the surface it may seem like not much has changed as people go back to their routines, we all know that navigating our reality is much more complicated. I wanted to revisit a past episode I recorded in the middle of the pandemic last year because the power of clearing and vision is more important than ever. How are we going to clear the space so that we can create a new vision? Many of us are still dealing with stress, fatigue and overwhelm, but before we can move forward we need to accept we are entering a new and different version of the future. What does that look like? First, we need to recognize where we’re at.
On today’s show, I talk about the power of clearing, vision, and the way forward. Let’s face it: all of us are just a bit exhausted right now. How do we move forward? What do you want to create? The first step is to honor where you’re at. I also talk about how to envision your future, ways to honor your grief, and the power of visualization.

| 15 Jun 2021 | 45 The Ripple Effect - Honoring Your Past, Impacting Your Future | 00:10:37 | |
"It’s important to honor your past and see the impact and power you have on the future. I believe there is a ripple effect." - Angela Chee How can we be more mindful of how we act and react — and what are we really here to do? Welcome to a very special episode of The Power of The Only! Today's episode was taped live for the Asian American Podcasters' first ever Podcast Festival and we are going to go a bit deeper into The Power Of The Only Principle #2: Own Your Power. This episode was inspired both by my parents and by my daughter. Let me explain: As an Asian American woman, I’ve been thinking a lot about my history, my ancestors, my future, and my legacy. And the other day, my wonderful daughter drew a picture of me that was a stark reminder that what we do makes an impact on both the conscious and the subconscious messages we send to ourselves, our families, and the world. It is important to take a step back once in a while to ask ourselves why we do what we do and who gave up their voice so that you could have yours?
In this episode, I explain how past traumas affect us, how to reconcile your past and your future, and how to step into your power by taking a look back.

| 02 Nov 2021 | 52 Rohit Bhargava - The Power Of Going "Beyond Diversity" | 00:39:05 | |
"We need to go beyond diversity and talk about how to actually build a more inclusive world." - Rohit Bhargava What does it mean to be creatively confident? Today's guest Rohit Bhargava is the founder of the Non-Obvious Company and Ideapress Publishing. He is a #1 Wall Street Journal bestselling author and is the host of the Non-Obvious Insights show. Before becoming an entrepreneur, Rohit spent 15 years in leadership roles at two renowned ad agencies: Leo Burnett and Ogilvy. Now he is on a mission to help the world be more open-minded by teaching others how to be non-obvious thinkers. Rohit and I came together in January when I moderated a virtual panel as part of one of Rohit's big ideas: the first annual Non-Obvious Diversity Summit. The week-long event featured more than 50 sessions on topics ranging from workplace ageism to racial justice to diverse casting to women in tech, food and culture, and more. Now, less than ten months later, the summit has been turned into a book.
In today's show, we talk about how to cultivate creativity, what it takes to make a more inclusive world, and why Rohit reads magazines for farmers. He shares how he cultivated his creativity out of his discomfort of being someone who wasn’t supposed to be creative and how we shouldn’t let titles or labels limit us. We also talk about the power of brainstorming, and why being creatively confident can be the key to your success.

"There is power in our stories; power in sharing them, that’s how it starts." - Angela Chee How can a spark inside someone else lead to a spark inside you that can light a fire within us all?

| 05 Oct 2021 | 50 The Power of Being The First with Hall of Fame Speaker Patricia Fripp | 00:39:21 | |
"The gentleman that hired me said this group has been going on for 85 years and, not only are you the first woman speaker, you are the first woman to sit at the head table.” - Patricia Fripp As Onlys, how do we concentrate on connecting with those around us rather than fitting in? In today's episode, we are going to focus on the power of being first. When she was just 30 years old, Patricia Fripp went into business for herself styling men's hair, when it was a new industry. She has always been curious and a great listener to those around her and it has brought her an immense amount of success in her business ventures. Fast forward a few years and Patricia saw the vision and the opportunity and not only became a well-known professional speaker but the first female president of the National Speakers Association. We discuss what every leader should know, why it pays to befriend those who appear to have the least in common with you, and why you shouldn't focus on being the only one. Patricia Fripp, CSP, CPAE, is a Hall of Fame award-winning speaker, a sales trainer, author, and an in-demand executive speech coach.
In today's show, we talk about how to turn a disadvantage into an advantage, how to feel comfortable in a predominantly male environment, and how can leaders bond with their team.

| 22 Mar 2021 | 39 #StopAsianHate — Sharing Stories, Speaking Up and Taking A Stand! | 00:09:10 | |
"Representation matters, breaking down stereotypes matters, how you report the news matters, speaking up matters, and standing against hate matters!" - Angela Chee How can we use our power of The Only to combat racism and hatred? Anti-Asian incidents are on the rise. In the last year alone, the United States reported about 3,800 anti-Asian hate incidents, with 2.3 times more incidents involving Asian women. Now we are grappling with the shootings in Atlanta this past week which left eight people dead — six of whom were Asian women. As an Asian American woman, these events deeply sadden me. I believe it is paramount at times like this to continue to share our stories, speak up, and take a stand for the things we believe in.
In today's episode, I share a very personal story that I’ve only opened up about once before, I discuss ways to stay empowered if you have experienced hate, how to help if you witness it, how all of us can continue to stand against hate and why it matters for you and your personal journey. I also talk about the Asian American experience in the United States and why it is so important to keep telling our stories.

| 06 Oct 2020 | 27 Google Executive Ginny Clarke - Fifth Dimensional Leadership and The Power of Self-Awareness and Consciousness | 00:45:39 | |
"We want you to be fully integrated and to love yourselves and know yourselves because that holistic view of an individual, I often refer to that as a talent mindset of an organization and of leaders and that's the thing that's going to take our entire civilization to the next level. We can’t think of companies as being separate." - Ginny Clarke Our world is evolving. How are we going to move forward? Who do we need be to usher in this shift in our personal lives and in our work? Today we are exploring Fifth Dimensional Leadership with Google Executive Ginny Clarke. When it comes to truly owning your voice and power and stepping into your leadership it’s not just about focusing on the external, but also about the internal. I believe this is the way forward and so does Ginny. She has been an executive recruiter, career advisor, and talent curator for more than 20 years, helping thousands of leaders realize their potential along the way. She is currently a Director of Executive Recruiting at Google. Previously, she was a partner at Spencer Stuart, a top global executive search firm where she co-founded and led their Global Diversity practice. She is also the author of “Career Mapping: Charting Your Course in the New World of Work,” and the host of the Fifth Dimensional Leadership Podcast.
On today's show, we explore how being a true leader goes beyond simply your resumé and expertise and incorporates who you are with what you’ve done. Ginny shows us how to cultivate your ability to connect and elevate others. We discuss her personal evolution of stepping into her “Only,” when she first discovered she was an empath, and how we can all bring more empathy to our work and the world. Join us for this deep and insightful conversation as we explore her vision for leadership and the future that is more soul-based, less-ego-based, where we focus on unity and instead of separation and where we tap into our intuition instead of relying only on logic.

As we head into the end of the year, how are you feeling? 2021 has sped by. Are you feeling a bit of intensity and overwhelm? I'm feeling the need to simplify, to clear, and get "my house in order" in business and life. I'm excited for what's to come, but before we can speed up sometimes we need to slow down. I first recorded this episode last year, it's worth a revisit. The power of emptying your cup will get your ready for the holidays and beyond. Before you can move forward you need to be empty….. And remember that it is an evolution – an ongoing process. “The question is: how do we get back to that place of being okay?” – Angela Chee On today’s show, I tell you the story and talk about harnessing the power of emptying your cup. I also talk about what you can fill your cup back up with, how to identify others’ struggles and how to set yourself up for success.

“There’s power in telling your story, knowing your story, and in seeing your story reflected. That’s why representation matters." - Angela Chee As we become more diverse and more divided, how can we move forward and thrive together? In honor of Asian Pacific American Heritage Month, I’ve been watching a documentary series on PBS called "Asian Americans". It’s a groundbreaking 5-part series you can watch it online through the beginning of June. One of the people featured in this series is my guest today, Nancy Wang Yoon. Author of Reel Inequality: Hollywood Actors and Racism, Nancy is a pop culture expert and sociologist. She has appeared on PBS, BBC World TV, Dr. Phil, Teen Vogue, New York Times, and Los Angeles Times, among others.
On this show, Nancy and I talk about how knowing our history and the power of stories can shape our future. We talk about the importance of media, and how representation impacts our identities and society as a whole. In the last few months, there’s also been a rise in anti-Asian racism and incidents so it’s more important than ever to create a climate of unity to see our similarities and celebrate our differences. And it starts with us.

I'm never going to have a Fox show, but you have to believe the impossible is possible.” - Dave Noll How do we continue to grow and move forward in 2021 with positivity and tenacity?

| 01 Jun 2021 | 44 How to Emcee or Host a Virtual Event | 00:08:09 | |
"As an emcee and host you set the tone...you keep the audience engaged and connected, and you bring out the best in the speakers and the event. That’s a lot to juggle." - Angela Chee You’ve been asked to emcee or host a virtual event. Now what? I’m up late prepping to emcee part of The Asia Professional Speakers Convention and thought it was the perfect time to take you behind the scenes and share my tips on how to emcee or host a virtual event. There is so much that an effective emcee can do in addition to simply introducing guests, reading off their bios, and thanking everyone for coming. And as an Only, this is a great opportunity to step up, gain more visibility in your company and industry, and make connections. You also get to set the tone for the event, keep the audience engaged, and bring out the best in the speakers who are being featured. In today's episode, I'll share what you should prepare to emcee a virtual event, how to interact comfortably with other speakers, and how to keep your energy up throughout the event.
In today's show, I talk about knowing your audience, how to create a script, and why listening is more important than speaking. I also discuss how to overprepare for hosting a virtual event so you're always ready for the unexpected.

| 30 Aug 2022 | 65 The Power of Joy and Pain | 00:13:37 | |
"Sunshine comes after the rain, right? But what if the key to our peace, success and true fulfillment isn't waiting for the pain to pass (the rain) to feel joy (sunshine), but our ability to navigate both -- and at the same time?" - Angela Chee How do we feel it all when we are feeling so much? I have been thinking a lot about the power of joy and pain, so today, I talk about ways to manage all of the emotions you have been juggling since the start of the pandemic. The world is moving forward, so how do we continue to move forward and thrive? I talk about the ability of all of us to feel both joy and pain simultaneously and the benefits of allowing our pain to be expressed and fully experienced. I also talk about where we store our pain and how we can validate that pain along our journey towards healing.
In today's show, we talk about how to cultivate and celebrate your joy and why it is important that you fully feel your pain in order to release it.

"Be bold. Now is the time." - Angela Chee Who are you, what do you stand for, what do you want to say, and how are you going to show up? Things are cracking open, structures and systems are shifting, and yes it is bringing up a lot of anger, division, uncertainty, and sadness, but I want that anger to fuel us. This is the perfect time to acknowledge what’s not working in our businesses, in our personal lives, and in our society as a whole -- and even though it feels like a dark time, we need to recognize the beauty and hope in the world so we can show up the way we need to.

| 19 Feb 2020 | 00 Trailer | 00:03:38 | |
All this talk about women’s empowerment, but is it really making a difference? The latest Women in the Workforce report by Lean In and McKinsey and Company says, “No!” It’s not making a meaningful impact, at least not in corporate. But what about the rest of society? With the #metoo movement, a record number of women serving in the House, and a historic number of women running for President, more voices are out there. But, are people really listening? Drowning In Women's Voices?Why do we feel like we’re drowning in women’s voices, yet we still feel uncertain if anyone is really hearing us or if it will make a difference? A shift is happening, we can feel it. But at times it may also feel like we are going backward. So what’s the problem? Women are working harder, they’ve been leaning in, so why not the progress we expected? Yes, we need organizations to shift, we need men in the conversation, we need a culture transformation for real change to happen, But what about in the meantime? The report also says too few women leads to too many “Onlys”, women who are the only or one of the only women in the room. It says being an only is challenging, their power and voice gets drowned out and they have a significantly worse experience. There Is Power In Being "The Only"While I agree it may be more difficult, I believe there is power in being the only. My whole life I have been the only, the only Chinese girl in my neighborhood growing up, the only Chinese girl in school, the only Asian TV reporter at a station, the only Asian speaker at conferences…… Knowing I’m the only gives me power. But at the same time I don’t focus on it. The truth is many times I don’t notice. I’m at the table because I deserve to be there and so do you. Once I’m there that’s when the power of the only shows up. Power to have diversity of thought, power to plant the seed, power to be a translator for others who don’t have a voice, power to bring other “Onlys” into the conversation, until one day, there will be no more talk about being the only. But how do you turn being “The Only” from a weakness into a strength? What can we learn from the onlys that will help you achieve your goals, thrive and create real change? While many consider “onlys” women. I believe many of us can relate to being the only regardless of gender. What are the lessons learned from those breaking barriers, defying the odds and making positive change? That's what I'm exploring. For now here are my 5 principles of The Power Of The Only.
It’s time to step up into the gift you were given. Are you ready for the challenge and to take on the power of the only? You are not alone. It’s time to come together. Have you ever experienced the feeling of being the only? [Tweet "Have you ever felt like "the only" one? You're not alone. But there is power in being the only! How do you turn it into a strength? #poweroftheonly https://angelachee.com/the-power-of-the-only/"] Share now! #poweroftheonly If this conversation calls to you I’d love to stay connected.

"Part of owning your power is knowing that sometimes things take longer than you think." - Angela Chee When did you last take a little space for reflection and sharing?

In this episode, I want to encourage you to pause and take a look back at the areas of your life that you want to be more aware of -- or all of the things that you want to celebrate.

| 05 Apr 2022 | 60 The Power of Being Seen | 00:06:59 | |
“What you do now is not just about you there is a ripple effect.” - Angela Chee How can we quiet the fear of being first? This week, I talk about the power of being seen. Let this be your reminder that what you do and how you are being matters -- even if you don't see it yet. It is causing a ripple effect. In this episode, I highlight a story from this past week that perfectly captures the power of The Only and the power of being seen.
In today's show, I talk about how to know what your audience needs, how you can step into their power, and how changing the narrative for yourself can change it for others.

| 29 Dec 2020 | 33 Reflection, Celebration, and New Year Vision | 00:12:45 | |
"What do you want more of in 2021?" - Angela Chee With the new year fast approaching, the energy has already shifted -- can you feel it? Happy almost New Year to you! It has been a year filled with challenges, but I hope also one filled with growth. As we mark the end of the year, it's important to reflect and also to celebrate, before moving forward.

| 20 Oct 2020 | 28 Can Your Greatest Strength Also Be Your Obstacle? | 00:06:02 | |
What happens when your strengths also become your greatest obstacles? October is a busy month for events for me. Most companies have adjusted to the virtual world and are really embracing the technology. One of the themes I often talk about as I give virtual keynote speeches is how to break through barriers -- not just the external ones, but your internal ones. You can Subscribe and Listen to the Podcast on Apple Podcasts. And be sure to leave me a Rating and Review!
I believe that in order to break through these internal barriers, we must first be aware of what they are. We also need to understand where our internal barriers come from, like our culture, societal stereotypes, media messages, our upbringing, and more. Then we need to redefine these barriers so they are no longer an obstacle, but rather, a strength. That is what the power of "The Only" is all about. But what if what helps you succeed is also what can hold you back if we take it too far? On today's show, I talk about the power of being an Only, immigrant culture, how to learn valuable lessons from the past without taking on the burden of our ancestors, and how to turn obstacles in your life into strengths.

"Don't be afraid to take up space." - Angela Chee How can we shift our mindsets to overcome the fear of being in the spotlight? Happy Summer! If you recall, the last episode of The Power of The Only — The Ripple Effect - Honoring Your Past, Impacting Your Future — was recorded live during the exciting first-ever Asian American Podcasters Association Asian Podcast Festival. After the episode wrapped, I stayed online to talk with Lee Uehara about what goes on behind the scenes when making a podcast. We touched on a variety of valuable topics ranging from the importance of saying no to the advantages and disadvantages of scripting your podcast episodes versus adlibbing. We also discuss best podcast mics and set-ups and more.
In today's show, we talk about how to do research as a host/moderator, the importance of journalism and integrity, and how to shift your mindset to overcome your fear of being in the spotlight.

| 28 Jul 2020 | 22 Tony Chatman - How To Be Trailblazer Not A Token | 01:00:14 | |
"It's not that we don't recognize that it's not always fair, it's that we've determined that we're not going to let anyone else dictate our future." - Tony Chatman What can we, as "Onlys", do to ensure that we are seen as trailblazers rather than tokens? We can't control how others view us. We do, however, have control over how we view ourselves, how we show up, and how we own our voice and power. That is why I started this podcast. I believe there is power in being the only -- and so does Tony Chatman. Tony is keynote speaker, corporate relationship expert and speaker who has worked with organizations and government agencies from the US Secret Service and Chase Bank to NASA. As only the second African American to ever graduate from his university with a degree in Chemical Engineering, he shares his journey from engineering to non-profit and public speaking to stepping into his "Only".

On today's show, we discuss why it’s not always about fitting in or getting access, but rather, it’s about creating your own opportunities and knowing you belong there. We explore why it’s important to take a seat at the table and how to know if taking that seat will actually create positive change. We talk about codeswitching and how it can be an asset, why it’s time to be uncomfortable, and why these uncomfortable conversations must start with us.

I recently participated in Hello Sunshine's Shine Away event in Los Angeles and I want to share the highlights and takeaways from this incredible event that brought powerful women together for important conversations. The day served as a reminder of how powerful we are and that all of us have many chapters and seasons in our lives. I hope this episode can also serve as a reminder for you.

This year was meant to be full of renewed hope, but for me, it has started out quite heavy, so I want to take this episode in a different direction. I want to talk about transparency.

How do we continue to lead? Listen in to this episode as I share my story and what I'm going through, discuss why transparency matters, and talk about how to sit with pain and still move forward.
In today's show, we talk about how to balance your needs with being a leader, how to stay calm during tense moments, and how to lead when you don't feel like it.

"The opportunity I feel in being the power of the Only is extending agency to those that should be in the room, but aren’t." - Alicin Reidy Williamson What are you trying to shift and what is holding you back? What is agency? Today I discuss this question with Alicin Reidy Williamson, Yahoo’s Chief Culture and Diversity Officer. Alicin says it’s all too easy for many of us to forget the power we already have and says it is important to remember and celebrate who we are.
Listen in to the lessons learned as she navigated a career in the entertainment, sports, fashion, political, and non-profit fields. Her ambition took her from MTV Networks to Managing Principal at the national public policy firm Raben Group and then the Chief Inclusion Officer at Endeavor. We talk about her vision for her current role at Yahoo and how to harness our agency. We also discuss how to navigate difficult conversations, share advice for our younger selves, and explain how the diversity and inclusion sector is changing.

| 26 Jan 2021 | 35 The Power Of Words and Healing | 00:07:03 | |
"There is always light So what's next? Last week was the presidential inauguration here in the United States and there were so many power of "The Only" moments. Kamala Harris became the first woman — and person of Black and South Asian descent — to be sworn in as Vice President by the first Latina Supreme Court Justice, Sonia Sotomayor. Jennifer Lopez called for unity in Spanish after singing This Land Is Your Land. But it was the words of Amanda Gorman, the country's first National Youth Poet Laureate, that left many speechless. Her words were healing for our souls. These are the moments that move us; when we see and hear someone who owns their power and owns their voice when we feel the power of words creating a collective magical moment. This is Power, Presence, and Representation. This is being YOU, Amplified!® This is why I do what I do: to awaken your power of the Only.
On today's show, I talk about the power of this moment in time, the power of the Only principles, and why we need more bridge-builders. We talk about how we can begin to move forward and how you can put your principles into action.

| 17 Nov 2020 | 30 Trusting The Power Of You | 00:07:07 | |
"True leaders bring out the best of you. It’s not about the best of them." - Angela Chee How do we know if we are stuck in a false narrative? The recent election has highlighted the ongoing division in the United States. We need to understand how we got here, what motivates people, and why we keep repeating the same patterns. Even more importantly, how do we move forward with a vision for ourselves and the world that is hopeful and kind? Our society is evolving, but that change starts with our individual evolutions. This episode is a reminder to trust in your own power again. The internet is drowning us in information, but it is time to quiet the noise. Now, more than ever, we must be careful to not get sucked into false narratives, groupthink, and echo chambers.
On today's show, I talk about the power that social media has to mislead us and how to avoid common traps -- both internal and external. I discuss the moral and ethical consequences of groupthink, how to avoid echo chambers, and how to begin to trust in the power of you again.

"Why do we downplay things so much instead of making them bigger and marking those wins in our life?" - Angela Chee What can I pause right now and savor? Today I want to talk about celebration and the science behind its value. If you don't feel like you're in the mood to celebrate, don't worry. You are not alone. This year has been a doozy. And sometimes we forget how far we have come because we are too focused on what's around the next corner. How are you going to rewire your brain for celebration? What are you proud of?
In today's show, we talk about rewiring your brain through celebration, how to rediscover what is meaningful to you, and why it's so important to celebrate the little things.

| 07 Apr 2020 | 09 Psychologist Dr. Valerie Rein - Taking Care of Your Mental Health During Crisis: The Power Of Shifting From Surviving To Thriving and The Key To Women's Happiness and Fulfillment | 00:48:11 | |
Stuck at home, but busier than ever? With the zoom meetings, homeschooling, cooking, cleaning, making sure everyone is healthy and safe, managing your business, making sure you don’t run out of groceries or toilet paper. It’s a lot? How are we handling it all? Are you handling it all? It’s Ok if the answer is No. All of us are adjusting to this new world we live in there is no right way….just the way that works for you and your family. But while we know that in our heads, living it is a different story. I’ve been in action mode-how can I serve? How can I prepare? I’ve been busy serving my clients, recording relevant podcast episodes, updating my equipment for video keynotes, taking care of my kids, making sure my parents are safe and making sure I deliver as a leader. It’s a lot. You probably have your own list……so today is a reminder to not get sucked into to this hamster wheel of productivity and stress. Give yourself grace and I will do the same. I recorded this episode with Dr. Valerie Rein last month before the world shifted, but her message is more relevant than ever and she shares simple tools that will help you through this time and in the future. "Our pain oftentimes opens gates to our mission in life." - Dr. Valerie Rein Why is it that many women feel stuck on the hamster wheel of achievement or to-dos’ or we may look like we have it all together on the outside, yet feel burnt out or unfulfilled on the inside? My guest today, Dr. Valerie Rein wants to shift the conversation from 'how much can I bear?' to 'how good can it get?' A psychologist, women’s mental health expert and business consultant, Dr. Valerie created “the only” science-backed system for helping women achieve their ultimate success, happiness, and fulfillment. Dr. Valerie's latest book is called Patriarchy Stress Disorder: The Invisible Inner Barrier to Women’s Happiness and Fulfillment. She holds a Masters of Education in Psychological Counseling from Columbia University and a PhD from the Institute of Transpersonal Psychology.
In this episode, we talk about how you can start thriving instead of surviving, why you may be feeling dissatisfied in spite of your achievements, and why it’s not your fault. Dr. Valerie also shares about her journey as a young child growing up in Russia to moving to the US in her 20’s striving to check off all the boxes of success until a pivotal moment in the ER led to this groundbreaking work to help women truly thrive. She talks about how she almost didn’t write the book and shares tools to help you navigate when you’re stepping into your next level work. She also gives you resources and tools to help you heal and discusses how this work also impacts men, our communities and organizations.

| 20 Sep 2022 | 66 Excavate the Past, Breakthrough to the Future | 00:10:30 | |
"Looking back allows us to move forward but in our own time." - Angela Chee Why would we want to go backwards into the past? Today I explain why, in order to move forward into a future where we own our power, we need to excavate our past. I unpack why we too often feel like we need to change something about ourselves to fit the mold of the culture we work in. I talk about the myths surrounding executive presence and what it really looks like in the workplace. I also offer up some mindset shifts to set you on the path to truly showing up in your power.
In today's show, we talk about how to shift your mindset from fear to power and why we need to look back in order to look ahead.

| 02 Aug 2022 | 64 NSA Highlights and the Power of Vision | 00:06:31 | |
"Whatever you are working on, plant the seeds." - Angela Chee How can the power of vision help us discover and amplify our gifts? I recently returned from my first visit to the National Speakers Association Conference, so today I want to share the takeaways of my trip and highlight the power of vision that exists within each of us. While I have enjoyed my time working remotely during the last few years, there are also perks to working in person that I realized I have been missing. It was a joy to connect with others in my industry and to reminisce on the moment in my childhood when the first seeds were planted in my mind to become a member of the NSA.
In today's show, we talk about why "planting seeds" matters and how the power of vision helped me to uncover my passion.

| 17 Mar 2020 | 06 SPECIAL EPISODE: Coronavirus and Working From Home - The Power Of Being Prepared, How To Stay Connected and Get Set-up For Virtual Meetings and Speaking | 00:24:53 | |
"It is important to be prepared and stay connected." - Angela Chee How do you stay connected and keep moving your work-life forward during this time of social distancing? A lot has shifted in a week….we just launched the show last week and we have some amazing episodes coming up, but it not business as usual. So I recorded a special work from home episode instead. On Wednesday, The World Health Organization declared the Coronavirus a pandemic. Events and conferences cancelled, companies ordering employees to work from home. On Friday my kids schools closed in San Diego, counties in San Francisco ordering shelter in place on Monday. It went from many clients and fellow speakers feeling a bit uncertain a few weeks ago to a very urgent matter. I'm taking this very seriously and staying home with my family. It's important for all of us to do our part to stop the spread, yet still stay calm, productive and healthy. It’s important as we work from home and do more social distancing that we don’t isolate emotionally. Remember to stay connected, check on your family and friends. I'm practicing compassion and also sending my thoughts to those who may not have the privilege to work from home. While I have done my research on the coronavirus, I’m am not an expert, but I did want to share some of my resources on how I keep update and stay informed to keep my family safe. But where I can be in expert in how to stay connected on-camera and off. How do you set up your home for virtual meetings? What equipment and software do you need? How do you run a virtual meeting effectively? How do you still stay connected if you’re working from home? Here are some of my tips from a recent Facebook live that I did. I hope they serve you in this uncertain time.

| 07 Jun 2022 | Re-Release: THE RIPPLE EFFECT – HONORING YOUR PAST, IMPACTING YOUR FUTURE | 00:10:37 | |
“It’s important to honor your past and see the impact and power you have on the future. I believe there is a ripple effect.” – Angela Chee I’ve been very introspective these past few months. I feel a lot of change coming and have been going through a personal realignment, by reflecting back to move forward. That’s why this week I’m re-releasing: “The Ripple Effect-Honoring your past, impacting your future.” “I believe what we do now is not just for you, but for future generations.” – Angela Chee It was a milestone week as both my kids graduated one from 6th grade and the other from 8th. Grateful to have my parents here celebrating with us, especially after a health scare with my father earlier this year. 3 generations together. So many lessons if we stop to listen. In this episode, I explain how to step into your power by taking a look back and how to reconcile your past to empower your future. As we move into summer, I hope you will take some time to reflect and go through your own personal realignment. “Whatever part of the journey you’re on, it’s important to take a look at what we’ve been through so we know where we’re going.” – Angela Chee For more go to:https://angelachee.com/ripple-effect/ “It’s important to honor your past and see the impact and power you have on the future.

| 04 May 2021 | 42 Moving From Scarcity To Abundance | 00:06:21 | |
“The way Onlys grow and succeed is not by maintaining the status quo, but to plant seeds, bring others in, and carve a new path for others to follow.” – Angela Chee What does moving from scarcity to abundance really mean? And how do we do it? As we start the shift back to our everyday lives, I want to share some tips and tools to help you to step back into your power, but to do so with more abundance and joy. I know from personal experience that it is all too easy to say we want to come from a place of abundance when in reality, many of us naturally revert to a scarcity mindset. At work, many of us are driven by this culture of scarcity which manifests in this feeling that there is only enough room for one, but it’s time for a new model — in work and in life.
In today’s show, I explain how to live in abundance, what an abundant mindset looks like, and what you can do to avoid a scarcity mindset.

| 16 Jun 2020 | 19 The Power Of Breaking Through Your Fear of Being Seen and How To Be Ready For Any Opportunity with Dr. Ann Shippy | 00:32:31 | |
"I'm the girl with 26 years of education that never raised her hand in class. Having all eyes on me just wasn't comfortable." - Dr. Ann Shippy Yes COVID-19 is here and we need to talk about it, but what are we going to do moving forward? In this episode, we dive into this and more with Dr. Ann Shippy, a Functional Medicine physician, scientist, engineer, Ted X speaker, and one of my VIP YOU, Amplified!® clients. She uses cutting-edge science to find and treat the root causes of illnesses, not just the symptoms. When we first started working together, she was already the author of several books and a go-to health expert for print publications from Forbes and Good HouseKeeping to Mind Body Green, but she hadn’t been on camera before. Dr. Shippy was being offered opportunity after opportunity but kept saying that she wasn't ready. Finally one day she realized that her message was more important than her fear -- and that recognition unlocked the key to even more opportunities and ways to serve and make an impact. Now she is a Ted X speaker, comfortable on-camera for her own videos, and is regularly featured on TV and several top podcasts, and will soon be hosting her own podcast.
On this show, Dr. Shippy talks about her journey as a thought leader and how much she has grown throughout her professional career. We talk about how we broke through her fear of being seen and her first Facebook Live video which got more than 12,000 views. Experiencing the coronavirus first hand with her patients, Dr. Shippy also gives us actionable tips on how to we can all continue to stay healthy by exploring epigenetics, boosting our immune system through nutrients and food, and reducing stress. She reveals her power of the only story and how healing herself from several autoimmune disorders and toxic mold fueled her desire to help others to heal.

| 10 Mar 2020 | 05 Behind The Scenes Of Tony Robbins 60th Birthday Celebration - The Power Of Sharing Your Story, Community and Giving Back | 00:15:19 | |
"Would you ever think standing up and sharing your story could lead to raising 18 Million Dollars and save 15,000 children? That is the Power Of The Only in action." Today I’m going take you behind the scenes with Tony Robbins. Last week my husband and I had the privilege of being a part of the host committee for Tony Robbins 60th Birthday celebration and benefit concert for Operation Underground Railroad - an organization that rescues children from sex trafficking. Some of you may a be a big fan of Tony’s work, read his books or been to his transformational events or just know him as the self-help infomercial guy in the 80's and 90’s, coach to the stars and 4 US Presidents, or the person that got Oprah Winfrey to walk on fire. He’s all of these things and more. He’s an entrepreneur, #1 NY Times best selling author, philanthropist and the nations #1 life and business strategist. For more than 40 years he’s impacted more than 50 million people across the world… helping others create success and fulfillment. Last weekend we celebrated his life and legacy at the Microsoft Theatre in the heart of LA Live. While I’m going to share behind the scenes of this red carpet-celebrity filled celebration and benefit concert, more importantly I’m going to share the story of how the ripple effect of one single act can really create positive change. I’ll share the true secret to living a full life, why sharing your story matters, how to open up to receiving, how to build community and influence, and I’ll share what one celebrity host did that instantly created a deeper connection with the audience and how you can apply it to your communication. I’ll also share the lessons and stories from that evening that can help you in your business and life. The event was a benefit for Operation Underground Railroad led by former Homeland Security agent Tim Ballard. Together with his team of former CIA, FBI and law enforcement they rescue victims, help capture and prosecute the offenders, they also give local law enforcement the tools and strategies to dismantle the human trafficking networks. They also focus on the aftercare to reintegrate or rehabilitate the children. It’s a dark issue that many don’t want to see, but they are taking it head on and making a difference. There is more slavery today than anytime in human history and many of those trafficked are children-globally and here in the US. Since 2013 they’ve rescued more than 10,000 victims but now they can continue to save more lives. "In one night more than $18 Million was raised! That’s saving the lives of 15,000 children Wow. I was in awe." - Angela Chee This all started just a few years ago when one woman stood up at a Tony Robbins’ Business Mastery event and shared her story. Tony believes life is not just about business, it’s about contribution and the secret to living is giving. They shared stories about causes they were passionate about, she said she wanted to help rescue girls and talked about the work of Operation Underground Railroad. This led to Tony learning about the organization and donating on the spot and it created a ripple effect where others started to donate and led to $500,000 being raised that day. Since then Tony has been passionate about the organizations’ work and vowed to save more lives.
From the evening’s host Dr. Oz and Maria Menunous and a dance performance from Derek Hough (Huff) accompanied by Lindsey Sterling on Violin, performances by Melissa Etheridge, Leona Lewis, Andy Grammer, Pitbull and Actor Gerard Butler doing his best Tony impersonation with his signature baseball cap, black shirt and shorts. It was a beautiful moving evening. You can find videos of the performances and stories on Instagram under highlights-events. 18 million dollars means 15,000 lives saved. If you would like to find out more go to www.ourrescue.org. There’s also a major Hollywood film about Operation Underground Railroad and the life of Tim Ballard coming soon starring Jim Caveziel called Freedom. I saw the trailer, it’s really powerful! The reason I’m sharing this story is because I want you to know if you don’t think you make a difference, you do.
Remember this: One woman sharing her passion at an event led to Tony’s support and bringing more awareness, and the power of his community and influence because of his impact through the years will now save more lives and bring even more awareness. That is The Power Of The Only and Power, Presence and Representation in action. You have no idea of the ripple effect of one single act. When you step up it can change everything. What are some of the other lessons from that evening? Being at LA Live brought back memories….I can’t believe I covered the ground breaking ceremony back in 2005 when I was an LA reporter and this whole complex was just an idea. I remember sitting in the news van in front of the Staples Center looking at graphic of the development plans - they wanted it look like Tokyo…. with all the video screens…. A reminder that all things start with a vision. I was also inspired by so many moments that evening about the power of stories. The ones you tell others and the ones you tell yourself and their impact on your life and your success. From seeing blind and autistic singer Kodi Lee - winner of America’s got talent play the piano and sing with such beauty and grace. To Melissa Etheridge sharing her story of how Tony impacted her life…. and what she learned. She said when you’re reaching for your dreams you always think once you reach your goal then you will be fulfilled. You spend your life chasing this thing….whatever it is for you…… but then wonder why it’s not enough - because fufillment doesn’t always come with success or having it all. It comes from within you and stories you tell yourself. To listening to leaders like Peter Guber - Chairman of Mandalay Entertainment and owner of several sports teams from Golden State Warriors to LA Dodgers, and Paul Tudor Jones hedge fund manager and philanthropist talk about the power of mindset, and their transformations through the years. And Marc Benioff founder of sales force talking about giving and tackling the issue of homelessness in San Francisco. Singer Andy Grammer shared his joy and gratitude remembering his journey from starting as a street performer in Santa Monica to now. There’s also lessons in receiving. Tony who is usually on stage for hours at a time leading the transformation was just sitting in the audience and listening. There was also another example of receiving……. His wife Sage who organized the event shared stories from last year when Tony had some health scares but continued to serve at his events and during that difficult time he also learned how to receive from his team and his audience. For those of you who are leaders and are usually giving and sharing it isn’t always easy to stop and receive, but that can be powerful as well. And while The Power Of The Only is about inspiration and lessons from leaders it’s also about how you can use your voice, power and presence to help you be a better communicator and leader. I also wanted to share a specific behind the scenes moment that will give you an inside look at what it was like hosting a show and what you can learn from Maria Menunos that may help your speaking and how you connect with an audience. Tune into the podcast to learn how she turned her life's biggest challenge to a gift and what you can learn from her sharing her story. The power of sharing your story not only creates connection and helps you command your audience, but you never know who you may impact or what ripple effect you may create like it did for Operation Underground Railroad.

To help you stay focused and back on track I'm re-releasing this episode I recorded in the middle of the pandemic where I share 3 powerful tools to help shift your mindset. Harnessing gratitude does not mean being unrealistic or in denial. Each of us faces different challenges right now, the key is being able to embrace both feelings of gratitude and hardship in opposition. How do we find that balance? How do we pivot, innovate and stay strong and centered?
In this episode, I get bit personal and share the lessons I’ve learned in the past few weeks from myself, from my clients, some of the things I’m seeing in the coaching and speaking space, and what I’m doing in my business to serve and pivot during this time. But if you’re not in action mode and you’re feeling a bit stuck. That’s ok too. 3 Simple Tools To Help You Harness The Power Of Gratitude Studies show gratitude helps you reduce stress, increase happiness and stay healthier and has shown to have lasting effects on the brain. I also share some resources and mindset shifts to help you navigate this time. I’ll share the morning process I go through for myself and my kids that helps keep us centered and have some tools inspired by Tony Robbins and Jack Canfield-Author of Chicken Soup For The Soul.

| 18 May 2021 | 43 How to Use Your Power of The Only to Create Change and Impact with New York Times Bestselling Author Charlene Li | 00:51:00 | |
"It’s one thing to accumulate that power, but when will you also use it? That is a very strategic question because it is a very limited supply — especially as an Only.” - Charlene Li How do we grapple with wanting to fit in while knowing we stand out? This week's guest is New York Times bestselling author, Charlene Li. Her purpose is to help leaders harness their power of The Only to thrive through disruption. I really admire her growth mindset and recognize it in myself, but we often don't start out this way. Charlene says that as Onlys, we have the power to see beyond what others see partly because we have broken through the barriers that come with being an Only. She argues that, in order to step into our power, we need to be asking ourselves: what tools do I have? What can I do with that power? When should we store it up and when should we unleash it?
In today's show, we talk about how to handle Imposter Syndrome, why are allies so important, and how to deal with microaggressions.

| 15 Dec 2020 | 32 The Mask of Success | 00:14:49 | |
"The journey to fulfillment is often different than the journey to achievement." - Angela Chee How are we going to sustain wrapping up the end of the year and moving forward into the new year with a vision? As the tumultuous year of 2020 comes to a close, the big topic on my mind is mental health. Mental health for my clients, for my community, and for the world. And it got me thinking about the "Mask of Success". What happens when leaders aren't okay? In a world where it is becoming commonplace to measure your sense of fulfillment on your professional successes, it can be all too easy to don a mask of success. This, however, is a dangerous path. I hope this episode encourages you to give yourself grace.
On today's show, we talk about the mask of success and what happens when the strong, the visionary, the Only hide behind it. I discuss how to honor your mental health, and why it's important to reflect on how we grew up and how it shapes how we move forward. I reflect on tragic death of Tony Hsieh -former Zappo's CEO and deliverer of happiness and share some very personal stories, resources, and insights on mental health.

| 08 Mar 2020 | 01 Welcome to The Power Of "The Only" | 00:16:05 | |
"Are you ready to step up, speak up and make an impact, but not sure exactly how? It’s time to step into the gift you have been given and harness the Power of The Only." - Angela Chee Welcome to the first episode of The Power Of The Only. I'm celebrating International Women’s Day, a global day to celebrate the achievements of women with the launch of my podcast. But this show is not just for or about women. I believe all of us can relate to being the only and learn from “The Onlys”- those breaking through barriers, defying the odds and creating positive change. I’ve put a lot of time, thought, energy and love into this podcast and I hope that it serves you. What is the power of the only? What called me to start this movement? In episode #1 I will share the story behind the podcast, a little more about me, what you can expect and learn from the show and I will also share my “5 Power Of The Only” Principles and more about how you can apply them to your business and life. These principles have helped me harness the Power of The Only and each week we will continue to explore this conversation. It all started last year when I was preparing for a new keynote. I was reviewing the latest Women In The Workforce reports by Lean In and McKinsey and it said while there has been some progress in representation of women in senior leadership, women still continue to be underrepresented at almost every level and women of color are the most underrepresented group of all. But what it also said is that too few women leads to too many “Onlys”, women who are the only or one of the only women in the room. It says being an only is not only challenging, but their power and voice gets drowned out and they have a significantly worse experience. While I agree it sometimes may be more difficult, I believe there is power in being the only and we have so much to learn from the onlys that have navigated their way to success. I believe the challenges that onlys go through is the power-it gives you a deeper understanding, a different perspective and strength that all leaders can benefit from. I’ve always been an only. The only Chinese girl in my neighborhood growing up, the only Asian TV reporter at a station, the only woman speaker at a conference. Being an only was not a weakness it was my strength. Yes, we still need organizations to shift, we need a culture transformation for real change to happen, But what about in the meantime? Not just in corporate, but in the rest of society? Knowing I’m the only gives me power. But at the same time I don’t focus on it. The truth is many times I don’t notice. I’m at the table because I deserve to be there and so do you. Once I’m there that’s when the power of the only shows up. Power to have diversity of thought, power to plant the seed, power to be a translator for others who don’t have a voice, power to bring other “Onlys” into the conversation, until one day, there will be no more talk about being the only. But how do you turn being “The Only” from a weakness into a strength? And what can all of us learn from the onlys that will help you thrive in your business and life? That is what we are going to explore….. So while the term only started as women “onlys.” I believe many of us can relate to being the only. Have you ever felt like the only one? The only person in your company, industry, community or the only one in the room reaching for your unique dreams and vision? There is a lot happening in our world. A shift is happening, we can feel it. But at times it may also feel like we are going backward. It’s time for new conversations - new voices and a bolder way of thinking. Call it innovation, disruption, diversity! It’s what our world needs, it’s what our businesses need and it’s what you need to step into your leadership.
I want to share my 5 principals of The Power the only that have helped me achieve my goals and thrive. Throughout the podcast we will continue to explore these principals as we interview trailblazing entrepreneurs, C-suite leaders, filmmakers, diversity experts, coaches, speakers, publishers maybe even a few celebrities. Are they the same? Are they different? We will ask these questions and more as we dive deeper into The Power Of The Only.
For now here are my 5 Principles of The Power Of The Only:
What does this all mean and how can it impact your life? Tune into the podcast to find out more.

In upcoming episodes I’ll also share my advice and resources from my 20 plus years in the broadcasting, entertainment and speaking industries and answer any questions you may have. I may even coach a few of you during the show. Let me topics would you like to hear more about. Or Any Only’s you would like me to feature? I’d love to hear from you. Remember you are not alone.

| 09 Jun 2020 | 18 The Power Of Clearing and Vision | 00:13:51 | |
"Many of my clients have been in either fight, flight, or freeze -- and wherever you are at, that is okay." - Angela Chee How are we going to clear the space so that we can create a new vision? Today I really want to focus on vision. Many of us are dealing with stress, overwhelm from world events, quarantine fatigue and more. I am not going to use the word normal as we begin to define what life looks like now that we're getting back to business, but we do need to accept that we are entering a new and different version of the future. What does that look like? First, we need to recognize where we're at.
On today's show, I talk about the power of clearing, vision, and the way forward. Let's face it: all of us are just a bit exhausted right now. How do we move forward? What do you want to create? The first step is to honor where you're at. I also talk about how to envision your future, ways to honor your grief, and the power of visualization.
